The 4 Non-Negotiable Signs for Emergency HVAC Service

Sign of Emergency Why It’s Dangerous or Damaging Immediate Action to Take

1. Burning Smell: Indicates an overheated component or electrical wiring issue. Fire Risk as you switch on the heat for the first time. Turn the entire system OFF at the thermostat and the breaker.

2. Water Leaking (Indoor Unit): Suggests a clogged condensate drain line, which can cause severe water damage to ceilings/walls in your Brunswick County home. Turn the unit OFF and call for immediate service.

3. Loud Grinding/Banging: A sign of a failing compressor or fan motor bearing. Continued operation will cause total system destruction. Turn the unit OFF immediately. Do not attempt to run it again.

4. Zero Cooling or Heating: On days over 75∘ or below 55∘ (typical October weather), this is a major comfort and safety failure. Check the breaker and thermostat. If the unit won't turn on, call our 24-hour dispatch.
