An air conditioner that suddenly stops working on a hot day can certainly be a good reason to rush to the phone to call for service. Before you make that call, though, there are a few things you can do that will help your technician fix your air conditioner and may save you some time and money.
By troubleshooting your problem before you call for Air Conditioning Service Affton technicians may be able to help you solve the problem without a visit. If a technician does need to come to your home to service your equipment, the information you provide can help them prepare for the visit and ensure they have the right tools for the job.
If your system suddenly stopped working, check to be sure that it wasn’t unplugged. In addition to being able to quickly and easily solve your air conditioning problem, you can save the cost of a service call if that is the only reason your equipment isn’t working. If, after checking the plugs and the circuit breaker, you find that everything looks normal, be sure to relay that information to your technician when you call because it can be a sign of a more serious problem.
Another common problem is an air conditioner that blows warm air. This could be caused by a problem with your blower or it could simply mean that someone has raised the temperature on your thermostat. Though you may not be able to access the blower, you can easily check to see if your thermostat is causing the cooling problem. Before you call for service, lower the temperature a few degrees to see if the thermostat change makes a difference. Knowing that you have checked to ensure that your thermostat isn’t set too high can help your technician when he arrives at your home.
