Frequently Asked Questions
Should I call for emergency AC repairs after hours?
If your AC has completely stopped working or if it’s malfunctioning in a way that could harm you or your home, then you should call for emergency AC repairs after hours. Examples of situations that might require emergency repairs include:
- The air conditioner isn’t cooling your home at all, or the temperature is rising rapidly despite the AC being on.
- The AC is making unusual or loud noises that could indicate a mechanical problem or damage.
- The air conditioning system is emitting strange odors, such as burning or chemical smells.
- The air conditioner won’t turn on.
What should you check when your AC isn't cooling?
If you have low or no airflow, start by checking and replacing your air filter. If your thermostat isn’t on, start by replacing the batteries. Check that it’s set to cool with the fan on auto.
If your AC won’t turn on, check your electrical panel and flip the circuit breaker if necessary. If the breaker trips again, you need professional service.
What is a SEER rating?
An air conditioner’s seasonal energy efficiency ratio (SEER) is calculated by dividing the cooling output for an average cooling season by the energy the system uses. The higher the SEER rating, the more efficient the AC is and the less energy it will consume to provide the same level of cooling.
As of Jan. 1, 2023, all newly installed air conditioners in the Southeast region must be rated SEER 15 (SEER2 14.3) or higher.
