Tucker, GA Emergency HVAC Repair
Heat or cooling out at a bad time? A dispatcher takes the call 24/7 and starts a technician your way.
The Emergency Checklist
Some breakdowns can wait for a daytime slot. Others cannot. Put these in the urgent column: the house is climbing toward an unsafe temperature in July, the furnace has quit while it is below freezing outside, water is spilling out of the air handler, something smells scorched or electrical, or the breaker snaps off each time the equipment tries to start. For those, HVAC Tucker keeps an emergency line staffed 24/7. Here is what we tell callers while a technician gets moving. One: if anything smells hot or water is running where it should not, power the system down, using the breaker too when it is safe to reach. Two: look at the panel, but if a breaker trips a second time, leave it off. Three: a coil caked in ice needs to thaw, so keep the system off. Four: gas odor means everyone goes outside and you phone the gas company or 911 before anyone else. Five: look after the people most at risk. Infants, older relatives and anyone with health problems should go to the most comfortable room in the house, with fans, blankets and drinking water close by. When you reach the line, the dispatcher logs the symptoms and what you have already tried, so the technician arrives knowing the story. On site, the order is safety, then diagnosis, then a price you approve. If the right part is not on the truck, the tech works to get the household safe and as comfortable as possible until it arrives.
