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

October 13, 2017

Your air conditioner is vital to keeping you comfortable during the warmer Auburn and Opelika days. If your system breaks down, it can really influence your comfort! So, how do you recognize when you might need an AC repair? Sometimes your air conditioner will exhibit symptoms that it needs attention before it breaks down completely. Check for any of the following symptoms and give Farnell Mechanical, Inc. a call if you feel your AC is on the fritz.

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

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

If you notice a leak coming from your AC, contact us for an AC repair right away. A condensation leak delivers less of a health risk, but you should get it repaired before you have a bigger problem, like mold growth.

Bad or unfamiliar odors coming from your registers are a sign that your system needs service.

If you suspect you’re in need of an AC repair from any of these indicators, give Farnell Mechanical, Inc. a call at 334-524-2458 and our team can help you. If your AC is running as it should, but it’s behind schedule for a routine maintenance visit, we suggest you call to set one up. It could save you from expensive, larger repairs down the line. We look forward to working with you.
