What’s an AC Emergency?

Summer weather on its way. You may have already booted up your air conditioning system to make sure everything is working properly. But what happens if it’s not? It’s getting warm, your air conditioner is not cooling, and you want to get in touch someone but it’s nighttime and you aren’t sure if this is considered an AC emergency that that is going to cost more. You might have heard that Rob's Albertan Service Experts is available around the clock for emergency air conditioning repair, but what actually constitutes a 24 hour AC repair emergency? And how much will is cost? 

First of all, you can always call Rob's Albertan Service Experts, anytime of day, every day of the year. Our customer service team is available live, around the clock to help decide if someone needs to come out ASAP or if it’s something that can wait until morning. 

When trying to evaluate the severity without an expert, here are some cases where you should go ahead and call an expert.  

Strange Sounds

There are many reasons that your air conditioner might be making unusual, screaming noises. One common situation could be that the fan belt got loose. Seasonal maintenance can help avoid this situation, but sometimes things happen and you need to have an expert come out for an AC repair appointment. Another reason your air conditioner could be making a loud, shrieking noise is that the compressor is working at a high level of pressure, which can be unsafe. If the sound seems excessive, shut down your AC system immediately and call Rob's Albertan Service Experts for an emergency AC repair appointment. 

Stinky Smells

A burning smell coming from your AC system is normally an indication of an electrical complication or a piece has become so overheated that it’s literally burning. If your air conditioning system smells like it’s burning, that is absolutely an emergency AC repair. Call Rob's Albertan Service Experts immediately for 24/7 AC repair. 

No Air Flow

If your air conditioner doesn’t seem to be turning on, or you can’t feel any air coming out, this could be a symptom that the cooling system has malfunctioned. The culprit could be a poorly calibrated thermostat, a complication with the blower, or your air conditioner could have finally bit the dust. If the air conditioner isn’t providing air flow, or the air that’s blowing is too hot, go ahead and call Rob's Albertan Service Experts, especially if there is extreme heat, so we can get an expert out to make sure your home is safe and comfortable. Not having cool air in severe heat absolutely constitutes a 24 hour AC repair.
