FAQ
Emergency AC repair questions
What should I check before calling?
Make sure the thermostat is set to cool, the breaker is on, and the air filter isn't clogged. If the coil is iced over, turn the system off and run the fan to thaw it.
Is a broken AC an emergency?
In extreme heat it can be, especially for babies, older adults or anyone with health concerns. If it's mild out, waiting for normal hours saves money.
