What’s an AC Emergency?

Summer weather on its way. You’ve most likely already turned on your air conditioning system to make sure everything is working properly. But what if it’s not? It’s hot, your AC system is on the fritz, and you want to call someone but it’s late and you aren’t sure if this is considered an AC emergency that comes with an upcharge. You might have heard that Roland J. Down Service Experts is available 24/7/365 for emergency air conditioner repair, but what actually counts as a 24 hour AC repair emergency? And what will it cost? 

Keep in mind, you can always call Roland J. Down Service Experts, day or night, every day of the year. Our customer service team is available live, 24/7 to help decide if someone needs to come out immediately or if it’s something that will be okay to wait until morning. 

When trying to decide the severity by yourself, here are a couple situations where you should go ahead and give us a call.  

Strange Sounds

There are many reasons that your air conditioning equipment might be making strange, shrieking noises. One common issue could be that the fan belt became loose. Regular maintenance can help avoid this situation, but sometimes there’s an emergency and you need to call for an AC repair appointment. Another reason your air conditioning unit could be making a loud, screeching noise is that the compressor is running at a high level of pressure, which can be dangerous. If a noise seems excessive, turn off your air conditioning unit immediately and call Roland J. Down Service Experts for an emergency AC repair service. 

Strange Smells

A burning smell coming from your air conditioner is usually a symptom of an electrical issue or a piece has become so overheated that it’s actually burning. If your A/C smells like it’s burning, that is a definite emergency AC repair. Call Roland J. Down Service Experts immediately for 24 hour AC repair. 

No Air Flow

If your air conditioner doesn’t seem to be turning on, or you can’t feel any air flowing, this could be a symptom that the cooling system has malfunctioned. The cause could be a poorly calibrated thermostat, an issue with the blower, or your air conditioner could have finally bit the dust. If the system isn’t generating air flow, or the air that’s blowing is not cool, go ahead and call Roland J. Down Service Experts, particularly if there is extreme heat, so we can get someone out to make sure your family is safe and comfortable. Not having cool air in severe temperatures definitely constitutes a 24 hour AC repair.
