Air Conditioning Repair
Diagnosis and repair for systems that are blowing warm, short-cycling, leaking or refusing to start.
Most cooling failures come down to a handful of causes: a failed capacitor, a dirty condenser coil, a blocked condensate line, a tripped safety switch or low refrigerant from a leak. The difference between a cheap repair and an expensive one is usually how carefully the system was diagnosed before anyone reached for a part.
A repair visit starts with the symptoms you describe, then moves to measurements — static pressure, temperature split across the coil, refrigerant pressures and the electrical draw of each motor. Those numbers show whether the fault is the part that failed or something upstream that will kill the new part too.
If your system is losing refrigerant, we look for the leak rather than simply topping it up. Refrigerant is not consumed in normal operation, so a system that needs a recharge every season has a leak that is worth finding.
What the visit covers
- Full system diagnosis, not just a parts swap
- Refrigerant pressure and superheat/subcool readings
- Electrical testing: capacitors, contactors, relays and wiring
- Condensate drain clearing and safety-switch check
- Written repair options before any work begins
Signs you need this
- Air from the vents is warm or barely moving
- The outdoor unit hums but the fan does not spin
- The system turns on and off every few minutes
- Water pooling around the indoor unit
- A burning, musty or chemical smell when it runs

(602) 203-2395The most common causes are a tripped breaker, a dirty air filter that has frozen the indoor coil, a failed run capacitor in the outdoor unit, or low refrigerant from a leak. Check the filter and the breaker first. If the indoor coil has iced over, switch the system to fan-only for an hour to thaw it before anyone works on it.
It should never need it. Refrigerant is not consumed the way fuel is — it circulates in a sealed loop. A system that needs topping up has a leak, and adding refrigerant without finding the leak just pays for the same repair every season.
Comfort depends on humidity as much as temperature. Many homes are comfortable around 75–78°F once indoor humidity is in the 45–50% range, and each degree higher reduces run time. If your home only feels comfortable at very low settings, humidity or airflow is usually the underlying problem.
