Pittsburgh's Trusted 24/7 Emergency AC Repair Services

Despite our infamous overcast skies, Pittsburgh summers can be unbearably hot and muggy. This makes air conditioning a necessity to many; especially seniors and those with certain medical conditions. Since air conditioners don’t always breakdown during conventional business hours, you need a dependable HVAC technician on-call at all hours. For nearly three decades, people throughout Pittsburgh’s North Hills have made A-Comfort Service their choice for 24/7 emergency air conditioning repair.

Get in touch with us at (412) 500-9215 or (724) 542-8797 for all your residential or commercial cooling needs.

Recognizing the 7 Key Signs You Need AC Repair

  • Warm Air: If your AC is blowing warm air instead of cold, it could indicate a problem with the compressor or refrigerant levels.

  • Weak Airflow: Insufficient airflow could be due to issues with the fan or ductwork, reducing the cooling efficiency of your system.
  • Strange Noises: Unusual sounds like grinding, squealing, or banging could indicate mechanical issues or loose components within the AC unit.
  • Frequent Cycling: If your AC cycles on and off frequently, it might indicate a faulty thermostat, clogged filter, or improper sizing of the unit.
  • Leaks or Moisture: Leaking refrigerant or water around the unit can indicate a problem that needs immediate attention to prevent further damage.
  • Strange Smells: Foul odors like mustiness or burning could indicate mold growth, wire insulation issues, or overheating components.
  • High Humidity Levels: If your AC isn't effectively reducing humidity levels indoors, it could be a sign of a malfunctioning compressor or inadequate unit size.

If you notice any of these signs, it's advisable to have a professional HVAC technician inspect and repair your air conditioner to prevent more significant issues and ensure efficient operation.

Commonly Asked Questions

How can I tell if my AC needs repair or replacement?

Determining whether your air conditioning unit needs repair or replacement can be challenging. Signs such as frequent cycling, weak airflow, or strange noises often indicate that repairs are necessary. However, if your unit is over 10 years old and requires frequent repairs, it may be more cost-effective to consider a replacement. A-Comfort Service offers comprehensive assessments to help residents make informed decisions about their cooling systems. Our technicians will evaluate your unit's condition and provide recommendations tailored to your needs.

What should I do if I notice water leaking from my AC unit?

If you notice water leaking from your air conditioning unit, it's important to address the issue immediately to prevent water damage and mold growth. Leaks can indicate a clogged drain line, low refrigerant levels, or other mechanical issues. Contact A-Comfort Service for a thorough inspection and repair. Our team is available 24/7 to handle such emergencies, ensuring your home remains safe and dry while restoring your AC's functionality.

If There Is a Problem, A-Comfort Will Solve It

We’ll dispatch a certified and licensed technician to your property ASAP. A thorough inspection of your HVAC will then be conducted. Once the root cause of your problem is identified, we’ll explain it and go over repair options. If your air conditioner unit is relatively new and in good condition, it can usually be resuscitated with a relatively quick and affordable fix. Something as simple as a dirty air filter can trigger a central air conditioning unit to shut down. Other common reasons for air conditioning system breakdowns are:

Low Refrigerant – Usually indicative of a leak or a problem with the unit’s refrigerant system.
Underperforming Outside Fan – If the outside fan isn’t functioning correctly, heat can’t be properly transferred from inside your home to outside. This can sometimes cause the air conditioning compressor to overheat, which can trigger the safety overload causing the unit to shutdown. It can also directly damage the air conditioning compressor.
Faulty Thermostat – Your thermostat is a small yet incredibly powerful object. Often times what you think is a problem with your AC unit can actually be a problem with your thermostat. A faulty thermostat can cause an AC unit to not turn on or continuously run. It can also contribute to uneven temperatures throughout the home or building.
Frozen Coil – A frozen coil is indicative of some type of airflow restriction or low refrigerant.
Whether your system needs a recharge, deicing, or replacement parts, our technicians can complete any AC repair job big or small. If your entire unit needs to be replaced, A-Comfort Service stocks air conditioners by Trane and Rheem. However, we can install and repair any make or model.
