Is Your AC Problem an Emergency? A Quick Guide

Not every AC issue requires an after-hours call, but some problems pose a risk to your system, your property, or even your family's health. If you are experiencing any of the following symptoms, it's time to call for emergency service:

1. Complete System Failure: Your air conditioner will not turn on at all, and you’ve confirmed the thermostat has power and the circuit breaker hasn’t tripped.
2. Loud, Alarming Noises: Grinding, screeching, or banging sounds often signal a severe mechanical failure, such as a broken motor or a failing compressor. Continuing to run the unit could cause irreparable damage.
3. Strange Electrical or Burning Smells: A burning odor coming from your vents or the AC unit itself is a serious red flag for an electrical problem. Turn the system off at the breaker immediately and call for help.
4. Blowing Hot Air: If your AC is running but only circulating warm or hot air, it indicates a significant problem like a refrigerant leak or compressor failure.
5. Refrigerant or Water Leaks: Noticeable fluid pooling around your indoor or outdoor unit can damage your property. A hissing sound accompanied by a lack of cooling often points to a refrigerant leak, which can be hazardous.
6. Frozen Coils: Ice buildup on the evaporator coils is a sign of a critical issue with airflow or refrigerant levels that requires professional diagnosis and repair.

Before you call, you can perform a few quick, safe checks. Ensure your thermostat is set to "cool" and the temperature is set lower than the current room temperature. You can also check your home's circuit breaker to see if the one connected to the AC has tripped. If these simple steps don't solve the problem, professional help is necessary.
