Additionally, if your airflow isn\u2019t as powerful and you\u2019re experiencing uneven heating and cooling you can benefit from repairs. Call our team today and have them come out and fix your system.<\/p>\n<h3>Unusual Sounds<\/h3>\n<p>Another warning sign that you need air conditioning repair is any odd sounds coming from your unit. An air conditioner that\u2019s malfunctioning can make a surprising range of sounds. There are noises that you might not think twice about like rattling or clicking, and sounds that are immediately concerning, like screeching or clanking. If any noise is excessive and persistent, you need the help of a technician to determine the cause and to repair the system.<\/p>\n<h3>Leaking from the Unit<\/h3>\n<p>If you notice that your air conditioning system is leaking water, then you\u2019ll need repairs. This is a sign that your air conditioner isn\u2019t functioning correctly as well as a risk for water damage or further damage to your system. Leaks like this are common in our humid South Carolina climate. If the drainage pan becomes clogged with dust, dirt, or mold from an excess amount of water it can cause the condensation to overflow resulting in a leak.<\/p>\n<h3>Strange Smells<\/h3>\n<p>A smell coming from your air conditioning unit is much less common than other urgent air conditioning needs. The most common smell that comes from a malfunctioning air conditioning unit is burning. A burning smell indicates that there is an electrical complication in your system that needs the immediate attention of a certified technician so that it doesn\u2019t increase in severity.<\/p>\n<h3>Increased Energy Bills<\/h3>\n<p>If you\u2019re frustrated over an increased energy bill and can\u2019t understand the increase, it\u2019s likely because your air conditioner isn\u2019t running efficiently. The issues listed above in this article often cause decreased efficiency. A repair will solve issues, increase efficiency, and decrease your energy bill.<\/p>\n<h2>Call Fulmer Heating &amp; Cooling for All Your Repair Needs<\/h2>\n<p>We rely heavily on our air conditioners in this muggy South Carolina heat, don\u2019t delay repairs when your system isn\u2019t functioning at peak performance.
