How to Tell if Your AC is in Need of Emergency Repair

October 13, 2017

Your air conditioner is crucial to keeping you comfortable on warmer Logan days. If the equipment breaks down, it can really compromise your comfort! So, how can you determine when you could need an AC repair? Sometimes your air conditioner will exhibit symptoms that it needs attention before it breaks down completely. Watch for any of the following symptoms and give Western Mechanical, Inc. a call if you suspect your AC is on the fritz.

If you see a lack of cooled air or decreased airflow, this is a definite sign that something is off. Give the team at Western Mechanical, Inc. a call if your house doesn’t seem to cool down or if it won’t stay cool. When your AC can’t keep up with your cool-air needs any longer, there’s possibly a problem. Whether it’s running low on Freon, having challenges with its condenser, or there’s an issue with your ductwork, we are here to help.

Overall, if your air conditioner becomes noisy, there’s likely a problem that requires AC repair. If you hear squealing or grinding sounds, call us. You shouldn’t hear a lot of noise from a properly operating AC outside of the sound of your fan turning on or shutting off. AC problems that create abnormal sounds imply a potential breakdown.

If your AC has a leak, call us for an AC repair immediately. A condensation leak poses less of a health risk, but it’s wise to get it repaired before there is a bigger problem, like mold growth.

Bad or unusual odors coming from your registers are indications that your system requires service.

If you think you’re in need of an AC repair from any of these indicators, give Western Mechanical, Inc. a call at 435-753-5515 and we can help. If your AC is running as it should, but it’s past due for a routine maintenance visit, we suggest you call to set one up. It could save you from costly, larger repairs down the line. We look forward to working with you.
