Common AC Repair Services

Refrigerant Leaks

Leaks in the air conditioner coils or lines are some of the most frequent causes of refrigerant leaks. These symptoms usually feel like your AC is not providing enough cooling, ice forming on the refrigerant lines, and hissing sounds.

Blown Fan Motor

Both the outdoor condenser fan and indoor blower fan can wear out over time, get bad bearings, or fail electrically. Symptoms include unusual noise coming from your unit, poor airflow, or the outdoor unit starting to not work at all.

Compressor Issues

The compressor is the heart of the AC system. It’s what makes the magic happen by moving and pressurizing the refrigerant so the whole cooling cycle can happen. Common signs of compressor failure are warm air blowing from vents, unit not turning on, or loud unusual noises coming from your AC. It’s often more cost-effective to replace your air conditioner rather than repair it

Why is My AC Blowing Warm Air?

Sometimes this is caused by poor airflow coming from your AC due to a clogged filter. This restricts airflow, forces the system to work harder, and can lead to frozen coils or reduced efficiency. You can easily replace your air filter yourself. It’s best to check your AC air filter on average every 3 months.

Why is my AC Leaking Water?

A clogged condensate drain line can cause your AC to leak water. Algae, mold, dirt, or debris can build up inside the drain line over time and block it, causing water to back up and overflow from the drain pan instead of draining outside. AC water leaks can also be caused by a dirty air filter, low refrigerant, or a broken condensate drain pan.
