About our ac repair
A broken air conditioner on a hot Texas day turns your home into an uncomfortable place fast. When you call, you are dealing with a system that stopped cooling, maybe blowing warm air or not running at all. Common problems include refrigerant leaks, a failed compressor, frozen evaporator coils, or a faulty thermostat. Our crew understands the urgency and heads out ready to diagnose the issue on the spot.
We start with a full system inspection, checking the compressor, condenser coil, evaporator coil, refrigerant pressure, and electrical connections. Using a multimeter, manifold gauges, and a leak detector, we pinpoint the failure. Repairs range from replacing a start capacitor or contactor to repairing a refrigerant line set and recharging the system. We carry common parts like capacitors, contactors, and fan motors in our truck.
What makes one AC repair different from another is the type of failure, how accessible the part is, and the overall condition of the system. A compressor buried deep in the unit or a refrigerant leak in a hard-to-reach coil takes more time. The age of the equipment and whether it has been maintained affects how easily parts come apart. Weather, like extreme heat, can slow outdoor work.
On the day of the repair, we protect the area around the indoor and outdoor units with drop cloths and work carefully to avoid damaging landscaping or flooring. After the repair, we test the system, clean up all debris and packaging, and walk you through what was done. Before we arrive, make sure the area around the indoor and outdoor units is clear. Afterward, run the system normally and note any new issues.
Refrigerant Leak Detection
We use electronic leak detectors and nitrogen pressure testing to find refrigerant leaks in the evaporator coil, condenser coil, or line set before recharging.
Hard Start Kit Installation
A hard start kit adds starting torque to the compressor, helping it overcome high head pressure on hot days and reducing wear on the run capacitor.
