Common Air Conditioner Problems We Fix

No matter what's going on with your system, chances are we've seen it before. We repair all makes and models and handle issues including:

Air conditioner not turning on — Could be an electrical issue, a tripped breaker, or a failed capacitor or contactor.

Air conditioner blowing warm air — Often caused by low refrigerant, a dirty evaporator coil, or a failing compressor.

Air conditioner freezing up — Usually the result of restricted airflow or low refrigerant levels.

Air conditioner not cooling the whole house — Could indicate an undersized system, duct leaks, or a refrigerant issue.

Strange noises — Banging, grinding, or squealing sounds typically point to mechanical issues that get worse if ignored.

Air conditioner short cycling — When your system turns on and off too frequently, it's a sign something is wrong with the controls, refrigerant, or sizing.

High humidity indoors — A properly functioning air conditioner removes humidity. If yours isn't, it may need a tune-up or repair.

Water leaking from the unit — Usually caused by a clogged condensate drain or a frozen evaporator coil.If you're experiencing any of these issues, don't wait. Small problems become expensive ones quickly.
