HVAC emergencies don’t wait for business hours – and neither do we. 1CoolAir AC & Heating provides true 24/7 emergency service across Southwest Houston and surrounding areas. Whether it’s 2 AM on a Tuesday or Sunday afternoon, owner Lazard Dominique and our licensed, insured, and bonded team are ready to respond.
With over 15 years of experience, we’ve handled every HVAC emergency imaginable – and we know exactly how to get your home or business back to comfort, fast.
Some HVAC problems can wait until morning. Others cannot. Here’s how to tell the difference:
| EMERGENCY – Call Now | Can Wait Until Business Hours |
|---|---|
| 🔴 Complete loss of AC when it’s 85°+ outside | ⚪ AC is running but not cooling well |
| 🔴 Complete loss of heat when it’s below 50° outside | ⚪ Furnace makes noise but still heats |
| 🔴 Burning or electrical smell from your system | ⚪ Filter is dirty (change it yourself) |
| 🔴 Water leaking from your AC unit (active leak) | ⚪ Small drip from condensate line |
| 🔴 Refrigerant leak (hissing sound, ice on lines) | ⚪ System cycles on/off but still works |
| 🔴 System making violent or loud grinding noises | ⚪ Thermostat batteries are dead |
| 🔴 Gas smell near your furnace (leave home first, then call) | ⚪ One room is colder/warmer than others |
| 🔴 System won’t turn on at all in extreme weather | ⚪ Maintenance is overdue |
When in doubt, call us. We’ll tell you if it can wait – no charge for the phone consult.
