Some of the air conditioner repairs that we commonly conduct include:

What Causes Sudden Airflow Problems in an AC System?

You’ll typically notice an airflow problem almost immediately, as the sudden decrease in cool air coming from your vents will make your rooms uncomfortable. A few different issues can bring on this abrupt change in your AC's performance.

One of them is a clogged filter, which restricts the movement of air through your system. Frozen evaporator coils, often resulting from low refrigerant levels or dirty coils, can also impede airflow. In some cases, a malfunctioning blower motor or a damaged fan might be the root cause. 

With airflow problems, we start with the simplest solution: Check and replace your air filter if it's dirty. For more complex problems, we’ll have to systematically address each potential cause until the issue is resolved.

What Differentiates Normal AC Noises From Ones Requiring Emergency Service?

While some AC units are quieter than others, they should never be silent. A gentle hum or the sound of air moving through the vents is typical and indicates that your system is functioning normally. These subtle noises are a part of the regular operation of your air conditioner and aren’t cause for concern.

Irregular noises, however, can be a sign of impending trouble. For example, banging or clanging sounds might indicate a loose component, while hissing can point to a refrigerant leak. Grinding or screeching noises often signal motor issues, which would be considered urgent.

The urgency of noise often depends on whether it accompanies a noticeable drop in your AC’s performance. A lesser issue that isn’t typically an emergency is an unclean unit, as dust collects inside. An urgent issue might be if the compressor is failing, which can cause your system to shut down completely.

Why High Indoor Humidity Is an Urgent Issue

Air conditioners normally remove humidity by pulling warm air from your home and passing it over the evaporator coil, where moisture condenses and is drained away. This process helps maintain a comfortable indoor environment by reducing both temperature and humidity levels. When your AC is functioning properly, it should keep humidity in check.

However, when your AC unit isn't working effectively—due to issues like low refrigerant, dirty coils, or airflow blockages—it can’t remove moisture as efficiently. As a result, humidity levels can rise quickly, making your space uncomfortable and potentially unsafe for individuals who might be heat-sensitive.

This is most often the case if your AC unit stops working completely, but it can still happen if your unit is still blowing air. Either way, the most familiar fixes tend to involve either topping off the refrigerant, cleaning coils, or repairing airflow blockages.

Why Did Your AC Compressor Stop Working?

The AC compressor is responsible for pressurizing and circulating refrigerant throughout your unit. It takes low-pressure, cool refrigerant gas and compresses it into a high-pressure, hot gas, which then flows through the rest of the system to enable the cooling process.

Your entire AC system relies heavily on the compressor to function properly. Without it, the refrigerant can't circulate, and the crucial heat transfer process that cools your home can't occur. It’s essential for maintaining the pressure differential between the evaporator and condenser coils.

A compressor can stop working for several reasons. Common causes include electrical issues like a failed start capacitor or wiring problems, mechanical wear and tear over time, or damage from operating with low refrigerant levels. As with other common issues, it’s often simply a case of inadequate maintenance.

Emergency Thermostat Repairs

The thermostat is a crucial component of your air conditioning system, serving as the control center for regulating your home’s temperature. It allows you to set your desired temperature and communicates with the AC unit to maintain this temperature by cycling the system on and off as needed.

Several issues can affect the performance of your thermostat, leading to the need for emergency repairs.

Issues that warrant repairs include:

• Incorrect temperature readings, which cause the AC to run too frequently or not at all
• Unresponsive controls that prevent you from adjusting settings
• Short cycling due to faulty wiring or internal issues
• Connectivity problems with smart thermostats
• …and more

How Do We Repair Your Thermostat?

Our emergency AC thermostat repair services begin with a thorough inspection and diagnosis to identify the root cause of the problem. If the issue is due to incorrect readings, we recalibrate the thermostat for accurate temperature detection. For unresponsive or faulty components, we replace the damaged parts or the entire thermostat if necessary. We also check and repair any loose or damaged wiring to ensure proper connectivity and communication between the thermostat and the AC unit.

After repairs, we test the entire system to confirm that the thermostat is functioning correctly and the AC unit is operating efficiently. Our thoroughness restores comfort to your home during the heat.

Why Is Your Air Conditioner Leaking Water?

Did you turn on your air conditioner to discover that it’s leaking water? Did you come home and notice a puddle below the wall-mounted unit? Addressing these issues promptly is essential to maintaining your AC unit's efficiency and preventing further damage.

This common issue is often caused by either a clogged drain line or low refrigerant levels. A clogged drain line can occur when dirt and debris build up, preventing proper drainage and causing water to back up and leak from the unit. Low refrigerant levels can also lead to the evaporator coils freezing. When that ice melts, it can overflow the pan, resulting in leaks.

What Does an Emergency AC Inspection Involve When Symptoms Are Ambiguous?

Some symptoms are ambiguous, which means they could have multiple potential causes. For instance, strange noises could stem from a loose component, a failing motor, or refrigerant problems. Similarly, inconsistent cooling might result from thermostat malfunctions, ductwork leaks, or compressor issues.

When you place a call, the symptoms you describe can sometimes help isolate the issue quicker, but the diagnostic process typically remains the same: we arrive, inspect the entire system, and use any necessary tools to pinpoint the exact cause and the parts we need, if applicable.

Is Your Air Conditioner Properly Installed?

One of the best ways to ward off unexpected air conditioner emergencies is to invest the proper time and money into proper air conditioner installation. Ensuring that your AC unit is installed correctly can significantly enhance its efficiency and longevity.

Here are key points to consider for optimal installation:

• Unobstructed direction: We recommend installing the AC unit in a direction where it faces no obstacles, such as walls or trees, to ensure proper airflow.
• Protected location: To prevent damage and maintain efficiency, place the outdoor unit in a location shielded from strong winds and heavy rain.
• Optimal placement: If your yard lacks shade, we recommend installing the unit near a north-facing wall to minimize exposure to direct sunlight and improve cooling performance.

Will You Need a New AC Unit To Address Urgent Issues?

In most cases, when an urgent AC issue arises, it’s usually possible to replace a part or two rather than the entire unit. Capacitor issues, for example, generally don’t affect the integrity of the components themselves, and it’s a relatively simple and cheap fix. The same can be said for a thermostat issue, which can be addressed without requiring a full system replacement.

When we inspect your unit, we may discover significant damage to parts that may warrant the installation of a new unit. However, new installations require careful planning to ensure correct sizing and efficiency. In emergency situations, it’s usually better to perform any necessary repairs to keep your system running until a more permanent solution can be implemented.

There are some exceptions. If the damage is extensive or your unit is totaled, we might opt to replace the entire unit immediately. This is especially likely if your unit is old or the repair costs are significant.

Signs You Should Invest in Air Conditioner Replacement

Are you unsure whether your air conditioner is just going through a rough patch or whether it’s finally time to replace it? Here are the ways to determine whether you should replace it outright:

Frequent Air Conditioner Repairs

If you find yourself constantly calling for AC repairs, it might be time to consider replacing your unit. Frequent breakdowns and the associated costs can add up quickly, making a new, more reliable system a smarter investment. A well-maintained air conditioner should last for some time, but if yours requires repairs more than once a year, it’s a clear sign that it’s reaching the end of its lifespan.

Decreased AC Efficiency

As air conditioners age, they tend to lose efficiency, leading to higher energy bills and reduced performance. If your energy bills are steadily increasing despite regular maintenance, or if your home no longer feels as cool and comfortable as it once did, it could be a sign that your AC is no longer operating efficiently. Investing in a new, energy-efficient model can save you money on utility bills and provide better cooling performance.
