Before you call

Quick things to check yourself

If you're here, your AC probably isn't performing the way it should. A few of these you can check in a couple of minutes — and sometimes that's all it takes.

  • Thermostat set to "cool," temp set low enough
  • Air filter clean (a dirty one blocks airflow)
  • Rattling or grinding noise — shut it off, call us
  • Water pooling — likely a clogged drain line

Strange noises like rattling, buzzing, or grinding usually mean loose parts or debris inside the unit — turn the system off and schedule service to avoid further damage. Water around the unit is most often a clogged condensate drain line that needs professional cleaning. A little preventive attention goes a long way toward avoiding bigger, costlier problems down the road.

AC repair questions

Frequently asked questions

Do you offer emergency AC repair in Columbus?
Yes. We provide 24-hour emergency air conditioner repair across Columbus and Central Ohio. When your AC quits in the middle of a heatwave, call 614-855-9010 any time.
My AC isn't cooling — what should I check first?
Start at the thermostat: make sure it's set to "cool" and the temperature is set low enough. Then check your air filter — a dirty filter restricts airflow and causes a lot of cooling problems. If both look fine and it's still not cooling, give us a call and we'll diagnose it.
Why is my AC blowing warm air?
Common causes are a thermostat setting, a dirty filter, low refrigerant, a frozen evaporator coil, or dirty condenser coils. Some are simple, some need a technician. We'll find the actual cause and tell you the cost before we do any work.
Why is there water leaking around my AC?
That's usually a clogged condensate drain line backing up. It typically needs professional cleaning. Don't ignore it — standing water can damage your system and your home.
How often should I have my AC serviced?
Once a year, ideally in spring before the cooling season. Regular service extends the life of your system, keeps it running efficiently, and catches small problems before they become expensive breakdowns during a heatwave.
What AC brands do you repair?
All makes and models, including Goodman, Bryant®, Trane, Lennox, York, Tempstar, and Comfortmaker. Our company name is Bryant, but we repair every brand — not just Bryant equipment.
