Jeorell
July 2026
A homeowner in Clayton reported that their air conditioning system was not cooling, and the thermostat was completely blank.
Jeorell found water in the system's safety switch (ss2) located in the crawl space, which was causing the thermostat to remain blank.
Jeorell removed the water from the safety switch, allowing the system to reset and start cooling properly. The homeowner had already cleaned out the P-trap, which helped address the issue promptly.
The air conditioning system was cooling effectively by the time Jeorell left.
If your thermostat goes blank, check for water in the safety switch or P-trap. Clearing these can often restore function without further intervention.
Dexter
June 2026
The homeowner experienced no air conditioning on an unbearably hot day, making the house uncomfortable for both the occupants and their pet.
Dexter found that the system had been repaired the previous night, but it was not cooling effectively.
Dexter performed a thorough diagnostic check and confirmed that the system was operational but not cooling as expected. He ensured all components were correctly configured and running. The system was then tested to verify it was cooling properly.
The air conditioning system was restored to full functionality, providing much-needed relief from the heat.
If your AC stops cooling after a repair, check for any unusual noises or lack of airflow. These can indicate a lingering issue that might need immediate attention to prevent further discomfort.

Answered by our licensed technicians serving Clayton.
We consider it an emergency when you have no cooling at all, when temperatures pose a health risk (especially for elderly family members, young children, or pets), when you notice burning smells or electrical issues from your AC, or when water is actively flooding from your system. If you're unsure, call us — we'll help you determine the urgency.
Emergency calls include a service/dispatch fee plus the flat-rate cost of whatever repair is needed. We provide the repair quote before beginning work so there are no surprises. The total depends on the specific failure — it could be as simple as a $200 capacitor replacement or as involved as a compressor repair.
Turn off the AC system at the thermostat to prevent further damage (especially if you hear unusual sounds or smell burning). Close blinds and curtains on sun-facing windows, use fans to circulate air, and stay hydrated. If water is leaking, place towels or containers to minimize damage and turn off the system immediately.
We charge a standard emergency dispatch fee that applies regardless of when you call. We don't inflate repair prices based on the time of day or day of the week. The repair cost is the same whether it's Tuesday at 2 PM or Saturday at 10 PM.
