Situations That Count as an Emergency 

Sometimes AC repairs can wait for business hours. However, there are situations that are considered an emergency. In these instances, call American Vintage Home immediately to get the service you need. 

Extreme Heat

While much of Chicago’s summers can be mild, we can still experience serious heat waves. When temperatures rise to the 90s and above, it’s unsafe to be without cooling in your home. 

Health Issues

If anyone in your home has chronic health issues that make them more susceptible to heat stroke, an AC breakdown is considered an emergency. This includes those with heart disease, poor circulation, and certain prescription drug use.

Resident Ages

Children and the elderly tend to suffer more without cooling. Pay close attention to signs of heat stroke, including confusion, weakness, dizziness, and rapid heartbeat.
