AC Repair and Cooling-System Diagnosis
Hammond Services provides AC repair in Griffin, Newnan, Stockbridge, Austell, and surrounding South and West Metro Atlanta communities. Whether the system will not start, blows warm air, or runs without cooling the house, we assess the problem and explain the repair options before you decide.
Help us understand the cooling problem
- No cooling: tell us whether the indoor fan and outdoor unit are running.
- Uneven comfort: note whether the whole house or only certain rooms are affected.
- A recurring failure: mention recent repairs, refrigerant additions, or repeated shutdowns.
- Ice, leaking water, or unusual sounds: describe what you can observe without opening equipment panels.
You do not need to know which part has failed. A diagnosis helps separate airflow, thermostat, electrical, and refrigerant leak problems that can cause similar symptoms.
For urgent service, use the call button and confirm availability at your address. For ongoing care after a repair, explore our planned maintenance agreement options.
Looking for AC repair near Experiment or Griffin?
Start with a cooling-system diagnosis rather than assuming a refrigerant recharge is needed. Contact our Griffin office to confirm service availability for your address and describe whether the system will not start, runs without cooling, or affects only certain rooms.
If your problem is a furnace or heat pump that is not warming the home, use our heating repair service instead.

Do You Need a Replacement A/C System?
A repair-versus-replacement decision should consider the diagnosed problem, total repair cost, equipment condition, previous breakdowns, and available warranty coverage. Age is one factor; it should not be the only reason to replace a system.
Questions to ask before approving a major repair
- What failed, and does the proposed work address the cause?
- What parts, labor, refrigerant, and testing are included?
- Is any part of the work covered by an existing warranty?
- Are there other known issues that could affect reliability?
- How does the repair estimate compare with a properly scoped replacement?
Explore our AC installation and replacement services if you are weighing both options. Hammond Services is an authorized Lennox HVAC dealer.
If the system is operating and you want preventive care, see AC maintenance and system checks. If it is already failing, request a repair appointment and describe the symptoms.

AC Repair FAQs
Why is my AC not cooling my house?
Restricted airflow, thermostat faults, refrigerant problems, or failed components can keep an AC from cooling. Note whether the whole house or only certain rooms are affected. A diagnosis is needed to identify the cause.
Why is my AC blowing warm air?
Warm airflow can result from thermostat settings, an outdoor unit that is not operating, restricted airflow, or a refrigerant or compressor problem. The symptom alone does not tell you which part needs repair.
How much does AC repair cost?
Cost depends on the diagnosis, parts, and work required. Ask what the estimate includes, whether diagnostic charges apply, and which parts or labor warranty covers the proposed repair before authorizing it.
Should I repair or replace my AC?
Compare the diagnosed fault, full repair estimate, equipment condition, repair history, and warranty coverage with a replacement proposal. Age matters, but it should not be the only deciding factor.
Do you offer emergency AC repair?
Yes. Hammond Services offers 24/7 emergency AC repair across South and West Metro Atlanta. Call to describe the issue and confirm service availability at your address.
