Our South Eugene and Florence teams respond to water damage emergencies throughout the year. Air conditioners are crucial for maintaining a comfortable indoor environment during the sweltering summer months, however, their failure can lead to significant discomfort and hazards.

A frequent issue is refrigerant leaks, which not only diminish the cooling capacity but also escalate energy costs. These leaks release harmful substances into the environment, contributing to pollution and ozone depletion. Another prevalent problem is a faulty compressor, which can result in the air conditioner dispensing warm air or ceasing to function entirely. This malfunction not only disrupts indoor comfort but also raises humidity levels, fostering mold growth which may encourage mold outbreaks.

Electrical malfunctions present another serious danger. Faulty wiring or overloaded circuits can lead to short circuits, potentially igniting fires. Such incidents can inflict extensive damage on the air conditioner and the home, posing a threat to the safety of its occupants. To mitigate these risks, regular maintenance and timely repairs are essential.

Engaging our team of professionals for HVAC services for routine inspections can help identify early warning signs such as unusual sounds, inadequate airflow, or water leakage. Addressing these issues promptly can prevent expensive repairs and ensure the air conditioner runs safely and effectively, providing a cool and comfortable living space.
