What Not To Do When Your Air Conditioner Stops Working

Did your A/C stop working in the midst of summer? There may be a number of issues at play like a faulty compressor, that’s why it failed to work. But when it happens, remember these six (6) things that you SHOULDN’T do.

Don’t Panic!

If your A/C went into hibernating mode, and eventually stopped working, there’s no need to lose your cool. Panicking won’t help. What you need to do is to call in the experts for evaluation and have your system repaired—if necessary. For emergency A/C service, you can trust us to provide quick and reliable solutions.

Don’t Turn It On and Off Repeatedly

A typical homeowner would switch on and off the A/C after realizing that it doesn’t give off any cold air. Our experts advise not to do it because it just adds stress to your system. Once you noticed that your system isn’t working at all, let it stay that way and don’t touch anything. Wait for a professional technician to diagnose the problem and take action.

Don’t Forget to Check the Settings

Be sure to check the small details like your A/C’s program settings. A simple mistake on the settings could mean a disaster in your system. Also, it’s a smart idea to check the thermostat if it’s set to cool. Examine everything, including the circuit breaker and the air filters for possible errors. If you didn’t see anything strange with the settings, thermostat, and electrical connections, then it’s time to call for professional help.

Don’t Ever Try to Fix It Yourself

The internet is flooded with DIY A/C repair tips, and it can easily make you believe that you can fix your system by yourself. Troubleshooting any air conditioning issue is best left to the hands of experts. They have just the tools and equipment for repairs, also the experience to do the job efficiently.

Don’t Think of Replacement Immediately

Let an HVAC technician evaluate your system, and see if the problem is still fixable or not. Only a certified A/C specialist can tell if a replacement is needed for your system.

Don’t Neglect Maintenance
