What’s an AC Emergency?

Temperatures are rising. You have probably already booted up your air conditioning system to make sure everything is running properly. But what do you do 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 you’ll be charged more for. You might have heard that Wesley Wood Service Experts is available 24/7/365 for emergency air conditioner repair, but what is actually considered a 24 hour AC repair emergency? And what will it cost? 

Keep in mind, you can always call Wesley Wood 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 right away or if it’s something that can wait until morning. 

When trying to decide the severity by yourself, here are a few 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, screeching noises. One common situation could be that the fan belt is loose. Regular maintenance can help avoid this situation, but sometimes things happen and you need to get in touch with a professional for an AC repair appointment. Another reason your AC system could be making a loud, shrieking 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 AC system immediately and call Wesley Wood Service Experts for an emergency AC repair appointment. 

Strange Smells

A burning stench 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 Wesley Wood Service Experts immediately for round the clock AC repair. 

No Air Flow

If your air conditioner doesn’t seem to be kicking 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, a problem with the blower, or your air conditioning unit could have finally met its maker. If the AC isn’t generating air flow, or the air that’s blowing is too hot, go ahead and call Wesley Wood Service Experts, especially if there is extreme heat, so we can get someone out to make sure your home is safe and comfortable. Not having cool air in severe temperatures absolutely constitutes a 24 hour AC repair.
