How to Fix Your Central Air Conditioner Before You Throw a Party

How to Fix Your Central Air Conditioner Before You Throw a Party

If you’re going to throw a party or have a get-together, you doubtless want your home to look as nice and welcoming as possible. You might spend some time cleaning it before the guests show up. You may do some cooking or decide to cater the affair. You will probably hire a DJ or set up a music playlist that you think will match the mood you’re trying to create.

You’ll probably have more on your mind than just the food, decorations, and music, though. You also want your guests to be comfortable, and part of that is making sure your home is the right temperature.

Let’s say you live in Temecula, California, for instance. It can easily get into the 90s during the summer. If you are having a gathering at your house during the hottest part of the year, you won’t want your guests sweating and uncomfortable.

This is why you’ll want to look into AC repair near Temecula or wherever else you live if you have a central air unit but it’s not functioning like it should. Locating a trustworthy AC repair company is vital for your party’s success, so let’s talk about how you can do that right now.

How Do You Find a Reliable AC Repair Company?

You might be at a loss to find a good AC repair company if you have never hired one before. What’s the first step that will get you pointed in the right direction?

In the old days, you’d probably have looked up AC repair companies in your local phone book, but we’re living in the 21st century now. The internet is your friend, and it’s the first place you’ll look if you’re attempting to locate the best AC repair company for the job.

It’s a simple matter to Google “AC repair company near me” or some similar keyword phrase. The Google search engine will get to work and return several top hits that should match what you need.

At that point, it’s up to you to look at the websites of some of the AC repair companies that the Google search yielded. You should look carefully at several websites to get an idea of which one seems best suited to help you with your malfunctioning central air unit.

What Will You Look for On One of These Websites?

Even if you know relatively little about hiring repair companies, you shouldn’t find it too challenging to pick some good ones. Examining the websites that your Google search comes up with can help you determine which ones are legit and which you should avoid.

The first thing you’ll want to see is whether each site is easy to navigate. If you go to a website and it has stock images and lots of spelling and grammatical errors in the copy, that’s probably a bad sign. It means the site was hastily thrown together, and this company doesn’t really want your business. A valid AC repair company should hire a skilled website designer and copywriters to show their potential clients they’re really worth considering.

You should also see how much a service call will cost. If it’s a price that seems reasonable and that you can afford to pay, you can reach out to them. You can also get an impression of that company based on what you hear from the person you speak to on the phone.

Are they courteous, and do they seem genuinely eager to help you? How soon can they get someone there to take a look at your malfunctioning AC unit? If the person you speak to seems polite, knowledgeable, and can get a technician to you before your party’s date, you should be in good shape when you use that company.

What Happens When the Technician Arrives?

When the AC repair person gets there, you can tell them what’s wrong. Maybe your AC unit is making a strange noise, or there’s a bad smell when you turn it on. Perhaps it’s only cooling certain parts of the house, and other parts remain unpleasantly warm.

You definitely want to solve those problems before your guests show up, so explain to the repair person what’s happening. They can take a look at the unit itself and perhaps at your HVAC system as well. Hopefully, what they find will not be too costly to fix, and they will have the parts necessary to do the job with no delays.

A worst-case scenario might be that your air conditioner is on its last legs, and you need a new one. If that happens, you’ll have to take a look at your finances.

If you can afford to purchase a new central air conditioner right then, the AC repair company can likely recommend a good one. They will know all the top brands, and maybe they can give you a deal on the new unit and the installation.

You can probably set up a payment plan with a store that sells appliances if you can’t afford to buy the new AC unit outright. You may feel a little reluctant to pay for an entirely new unit, but you’ll use it for more than just your upcoming party. You can probably use it for many events and for many years to come.

Once you have your central air up and running again, you can breathe a sigh of relief before your guests start arriving. Whether you’re throwing a birthday party, a graduation party, having a wedding reception, etc., you’ll know the event will not be ruined because the temperature is too warm.

The temperature in your house matters so much for events of this nature, so neglecting your AC unit before a big blowout isn’t an option. You may not feel so happy having to pay money to fix the unit or get a new one, but you don’t want a bunch of sweaty guests complaining about the heat.
