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

October 13, 2017

Your air conditioner is vital to keeping you comfortable throughout the warmer Newton days. If the equipment 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 show symptoms that it needs attention before it breaks down completely. Check for any of the following symptoms and give Brookwood 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 off. Give the experts at Brookwood Inc a call if your house doesn’t seem to cool down or if it won’t remain cool. When your system can’t keep up with your cool-air needs any longer, there’s possibly 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.

In general, if your air conditioner becomes noisy, there’s usually a problem that needs AC repair. If you hear squealing or grinding sounds, call us. 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 your AC has a leak, schedule an AC repair right away. A condensation leak carries less of a health risk, but you should get it repaired before you’re faced with a bigger problem, like mold growth.

Bad or strange 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 Brookwood Inc a call at 641-316-9803 and we’ll be there to help. If your AC is running as it should, but it’s past due for a routine maintenance visit, we encourage you to call to set one up. It could save you from pricey, larger repairs down the line. We look forward to working with you.
