Signs You Need Emergency AC Repair Services
Not all AC problems require emergency service, but some issues should never wait. If you notice any of the following, call us right away:
No Cold Air & Extreme Indoor Temperatures
If your AC is running but blowing warm air, it could indicate a serious refrigerant leak, compressor failure, or airflow restriction.
In extreme heat, indoor temperatures can rise rapidly, making your home unsafe.
Electrical Issues – Buzzing, Burning Smells, or System Won't Turn On
A burning smell or smoke coming from your AC can indicate an electrical hazard.
Buzzing or crackling sounds could mean a failing capacitor, relay, or wiring problem.
If your AC won’t turn on at all, it may be due to an electrical failure or thermostat malfunction.
Frozen AC Coils or Ice Buildup
If your system is freezing up, turn it off and call us. Ice buildup often points to low refrigerant, restricted airflow, or compressor failure.
Water or Refrigerant Leaks
Water pooling near your AC unit can mean a clogged condensate drain, which could cause water damage.
Refrigerant leaks are hazardous and require immediate attention.
Unusual Noises – Banging, Screeching, or Grinding
Loud banging might indicate a broken fan blade or a failing compressor.
Screeching sounds could mean a bad motor or belt issue.
Grinding noises often suggest a serious internal failure that could damage your system further if left unchecked.
What to Do If Your AC Stops Working
If your AC suddenly stops cooling, follow these steps before calling for emergency service:
- Check Your Thermostat – Ensure it's set to "cool" and the temperature is lower than the room temperature.
- Inspect the Air Filter – A clogged filter can restrict airflow and cause system shutdown.
- Look for Tripped Circuit Breakers – If your AC isn’t turning on, reset any tripped breakers.
- Turn Off the AC If You Notice Ice Buildup – Running your AC while it’s frozen can cause severe damage.
If these steps don’t resolve the problem, call Tommy Cool Air for 24/7 emergency repair!
