What's an AC Emergency?

May 13, 2016

Temperatures are rising. You may have already booted up your air conditioning system to make sure everything is running perfectly. But what happens if it’s not? It’s uncomfortably warm, your AC system is acting up, and you want to contact someone but it’s nighttime and you aren’t sure if this is considered an AC emergency that that is going to cost more. You have probably heard that A-PLUS Service Experts is available 24/7/365 for emergency AC repair, but what is actually considered a 24 hour AC repair emergency? And what will it cost?

First of all, you can always call A-PLUS Service Experts, day or night, every day of the year. Our customer service representatives are available live, at all times to help decide if someone needs to come to your home immediately or if it’s something that will be okay to wait until morning.

When trying to check the severity on your own, here are a few issues where you should go ahead and call a professional.

Strange Sounds

There are multiple reasons that your AC system might be making unusual, screaming noises. One common issue could be that the fan belt became loose. Seasonal maintenance can help avoid this problem, but sometimes there’s an emergency and you need to get in touch with a professional for an AC repair appointment. Another reason your AC system could be making a loud, shrieking noise is that the compressor is working at a high level of pressure, which can be hazardous. If a noise seems excessive, shut off your air conditioner immediately and call A-PLUS Service Experts for an emergency AC repair job.

Strange Smells

A burning odor coming from your air conditioner is normally a sign of an electrical problem or a piece has become so overheated that it’s really burning. If your air conditioning system smells like it’s burning, that is absolutely an emergency AC repair. Call A-PLUS Service Experts as soon as possible for round the clock AC repair.

No Air Flow

If your AC system doesn’t seem to be kicking on, or you can’t feel any air coming out, this could be a sign that the cooling system has failed. The source could be a poorly calibrated thermostat, a problem with the blower, or your A/C system could have finally met its maker. If the air conditioner isn’t providing air flow, or the air that’s blowing is too hot, go ahead and call A-PLUS Service Experts, particularly if there is extreme heat, so we can get a technician out to make sure your home is safe and comfortable. Not having a functioning A/C in severe weather for sure constitutes a 24 hour AC repair.
