What air conditioning repair involves
Most no-cooling calls come down to a handful of failures. We work through them in order of likelihood and cost, cheapest and most probable first.
Central air diagnosis and repair — capacitors, contactors, fan motors, refrigerant leaks and drainage.
Signs you need service
- Outdoor unit runs but the air inside isn't cold
- Air handler hums and the fan won't start
- Ice on the indoor coil or the refrigerant line
- Water around the air handler or a stained ceiling below it
- System trips the breaker
The repair itself
For refrigerant problems we find and repair the leak, then weigh in the correct charge. Topping off a leaking system is a bill you get to pay again next year.
Repair or replace?
R-22 systems, failed compressors and units past 15 years with repeated repairs are the cases where replacement is genuinely the better value. We'll show the math.
Questions from Vernon homeowners
- Why does my AC freeze up?
- Almost always low airflow or low refrigerant. Shut it off, let it thaw, change the filter, then call us.
- Can you just add refrigerant?
- We can, but low refrigerant means a leak. We'd rather find it than sell you the same repair every summer.
