Common AC Emergencies We Resolve

An air conditioning emergency can manifest in several ways. If you experience any of the following issues, it's crucial to seek professional assistance immediately to prevent further damage to your system and protect your property.

AC System Will Not Turn OnA complete system breakdown is the most obvious sign of an emergency. If your air conditioner is unresponsive and you've already checked the thermostat settings and the circuit breaker, there is likely a significant underlying problem. This could be due to a failed compressor, a faulty capacitor, or an electrical issue within the unit that requires immediate, expert diagnosis.

AC is Blowing Warm or Hot AirWhen your AC runs but only circulates warm air, your home's temperature will continue to rise. This common emergency is often caused by a refrigerant leak, a malfunctioning compressor, or restricted airflow. Continuing to run the system in this state can cause severe damage to the compressor, which is one of the most expensive components to replace.

Loud, Unusual NoisesYour air conditioner should operate with a consistent, low hum. Sudden, loud noises are a clear warning sign of a mechanical failure.

• Grinding or Squealing: Often indicates a problem with the motor bearings.
• Banging or Clanking: Could signal a loose or broken part, such as a piston pin or connecting rod within the compressor.
• Buzzing: Frequently points to an electrical issue, such as a failing capacitor or contactor.Ignoring these sounds can lead to a catastrophic system failure.

Water Leaking From the UnitWhile some condensation is normal, a puddle of water forming around your indoor or outdoor unit is a sign of trouble. This is often caused by a clogged condensate drain line or a frozen evaporator coil. If left unaddressed, this water can cause significant damage to your floors, walls, and ceilings, and create a breeding ground for mold and mildew.

Electrical Issues and Burning SmellsAny smell of burning plastic or wires coming from your vents or AC unit is a serious emergency that poses a fire hazard. Similarly, if your AC repeatedly trips the circuit breaker, it indicates an electrical overload that must be addressed by a licensed professional. Do not attempt to reset the breaker continuously; turn off the system and await expert help.

Frozen AC CoilsDiscovering ice or frost on your AC unit's coils is a clear sign that something is wrong. This is typically caused by poor airflow from a dirty filter or blocked vents, or low refrigerant levels. A frozen system cannot cool your home effectively and will put immense strain on the compressor.
