Moderate repairs such as fan motor replacements fall into a mid-range cost category. Major repairs like compressor replacement represent the most significant investment. Our 38 years of combined experience ensures accurate diagnosis and fair pricing. We provide upfront estimates before beginning work, and financing is available for unexpected major repairs.
Several issues cause AC systems to run without cooling effectively. Low refrigerant from leaks reduces cooling capacity. Dirty coils can't transfer heat efficiently. Frozen evaporator coils block airflow. Failed compressors can't circulate refrigerant. Clogged filters restrict airflow. Thermostat problems prevent proper operation. Our diagnostic process quickly identifies the specific cause, allowing targeted repairs that restore cooling performance.
AC freezing typically results from airflow restrictions or refrigerant issues. Dirty filters are the most common cause, restricting airflow across evaporator coils. Low refrigerant levels cause remaining refrigerant to expand too much, creating freezing temperatures. Dirty coils, blocked vents, failed blower motors, or damaged ductwork also cause freezing. Turn off your system to allow thawing, check filters, then call for professional diagnosis if freezing recurs.
Response times depend on season, problem severity, and parts availability. During peak summer season, we prioritize emergencies like complete failures. Most common repairs are completed same-day using parts from our stocked vehicles. Complex repairs requiring special-order parts may take 1-3 days. We communicate clearly about timelines and offer temporary cooling solutions when needed. Maintenance plan members receive priority scheduling for faster service.
We're authorized to perform warranty repairs for many major brands including Armstrong, Heil, and Carrier. Manufacturer warranties typically cover parts only, with labor costs your responsibility unless you have extended coverage. We handle warranty claim paperwork, order parts through proper channels, and document work according to manufacturer requirements. This ensures your warranty remains valid while receiving quality repairs.
Regular maintenance is the best prevention strategy. Change filters monthly during cooling season. Keep outdoor units clear of debris and vegetation. Schedule annual professional tune-ups before summer heat arrives. Address small problems before they become major failures. Monitor energy bills for efficiency losses. Listen for unusual noises indicating developing problems. Our maintenance plans make prevention easy with automatic scheduling and service reminders.
Watch for these warning signs: insufficient cooling despite thermostat settings, unusual noises (grinding, squealing, clicking), frequent cycling on and off, water leaks around indoor unit, ice formation on coils, musty odors from vents, higher than normal energy bills, uneven cooling throughout home, system age over 10 years with declining performance. Addressing problems early prevents complete failures and reduces repair costs.
R-22 (Freon) production ended in 2020 due to ozone depletion concerns. Limited supply and high demand drive prices up significantly. Reclaimed R-22 costs continue rising as supplies dwindle. Systems using R-22 face increasingly expensive repairs. When major repairs are needed, replacement with modern R-410A systems often proves more economical. We help evaluate repair versus replacement options for R-22 systems.
Absolutely. We provide fast-response emergency services and can typically schedule same-day or next-day appointments to restore your comfort as quickly as possible.
Yes. All our technicians are fully licensed, insured, and trained to deliver professional, high-quality HVAC services you can rely on.
