Yes, you can safely run your air conditioner if your home's main water supply is turned off. A standard central air conditioning system is a closed-loop refrigeration system that uses indoor electricity and outdoor air exchange to cool your home; it does not consume, utilize, or require household tap water to operate. The only exception involves certain specialized geothermal or water-cooled HVAC systems, which rely on external water sources. For standard split-system central air conditioners, a temporary municipal water shutoff has zero impact on cooling functionality. Verification: Confirm your specific HVAC setup is a standard air-cooled system before running it during a water outage.
