Issues That are Not Serious
There are certain problems with your unit that will not need immediate air conditioning repair. These issues are slow air flow or reduced air flow. Slow air flow means that you are getting air through your vents, but it is not at the speed you are used too. Normal speed, of course, can mean different things for different units. But in general, the air should be about the same as a brisk breeze or even a strong wind. If the air flow is not more than a soft breeze, then there is an issue. It could be a block or an engine problem. Reduced air flow is much the same. You are not getting the correct amount of air through the vent. This could also be a sign of a block or an engine problem. Both of these issues will need a professional help. But they do not need it immediately.
When Do You Need Air Conditioning Repairs?
On the other hand, there are certain issues that need immediate air conditioning repairs. These would involve strange smells and sounds coming from your vents. If you smell gas or burning coming from your vent, it can mean that there is a leak in your engine or it could be a sign of fire. Along with a burning smell, you will likely have no cool air either. In fact, it might blow hot air. This means there is something seriously wrong with the unit. The best thing to do is turn the unit off and call a professional immediately.
If you hear loud clanging coming from your vent, it could be a sign of something breaking off or it could be a sign of the machine breaking down. Usually, this sound will also have a strange smell coming from the vents. All of these are signs of a serious problem you will need to call a professional immediately.
