What to do in an air conditioning emergency

If you think you’re experiencing an air conditioning emergency, there are steps you can take to manage your safety before contacting us:

  • Turn off your air conditioner’s power: Turning off your air conditioner’s power is the first step to safeguarding your home, and it’s best to do so at the main power source. In addition to keeping you safe, powering down will prevent further damage to your system. If you need to turn off the unit itself, and it is safe to do so, use a long, dry wooden object (such as a broom) to flick the switch. Using a wooden object will help prevent electrical shock.
  • Inspect your air conditioner’s filters and outdoor unit: If it is safe to do so, examine your air filters to see if they are clogged, and clear anything obstructing them. If you have a split system with an outdoor unit, check it and remove any debris that could also be impeding your air conditioner’s operations.
  • Call immediately if you suspect a refrigerant leak: If you notice any unusual smells near your air conditioner, it may be a sign of a refrigerant gas leak. While a refrigerant leak may not be dangerous to you, it can cause problems to your unit if it runs on low refrigerant for too long. Contact Climate Plus, and we’ll safely assess your air conditioner and ensure the leak is fixed and the unit is restocked.

Frequently asked questions

The most common air conditioner repair is cleaning or replacing a dirty or clogged air filter. Issues with air filters can lead to problems such as reduced airflow, smells, frozen evaporator coils or a bigger energy bill.
Whether it’s worth fixing an air conditioner or evaporative cooler depends on several factors, including:
  • Cost: Consider how much the repairs will cost compared to the price of installing a newer unit. If you need to replace an expensive component like a compressor, it may be more efficient to simply buy a new model.
  • Efficiency: How efficient is your current system compared to newer models? If a newer model is more effective and energy efficient, it may be a good idea to replace it with a brand new air conditioning system.
  • Age: If the system is more than 10-15 years old, it may be better to buy a newer model. This is especially true if your current model has had multiple breakdowns in a short time period.
Contact us online or on 02 6185 5151 to discuss whether repairs or replacement is more appropriate in your situation.
A significant amount of air conditioner failure can be traced back to a failure to regularly maintain a system. For example, without regular maintenance, the filters and coils can build up a large amount of dirt and debris, causing strain and blockages in the system.
Yes, if your device is not cooling, then it is recommended to turn it off. If you continue to run a malfunctioning AC, you can potentially cause further damage or create a safety hazard.
If your AC has weak or warm airflow, is taking longer to cool or is causing a higher energy bill, it may be low on refrigerant. You may also see that there is an ice buildup on the evaporator coil or refrigerant lines, or a hissing, bubbling sound from the unit.
