AC Repair

Starting at $150

Your system isn't cooling. Maybe it's blowing warm air, maybe it's not turning on at all. David will find the problem, explain what's going on in plain English, and give you a price before he starts. Most repairs are done the same visit.

AC Installation

Starting at $3,200

David sizes the system for your house himself. No guessing, no overselling a bigger unit than you need. He handles the full install and tests everything before he leaves the job. You deal with one person from the estimate through the final walkthrough.

AC Tune-Up

$89

Seasonal inspection, refrigerant check, and performance test. This is how you catch a failing capacitor or a slow refrigerant leak before it turns into a $500 repair on a Saturday in July. Schedule this in the spring.

Coil Cleaning

Starting at $125

Dirty condenser and evaporator coils choke your system. Airflow drops, efficiency drops, and your electric bill goes up. David cleans both coils and gets your system back to where it should be.

AC Repair

Most AC breakdowns come down to a few parts: capacitor, contactor, refrigerant charge, coils, or compressor. We diagnose the problem, tell you what it costs to fix, and give you our honest take on whether the repair makes sense for the age of your system.

Common AC problems we fix:

AC Installation and Replacement

If your system is past repair or getting close, we install new central AC units and heat pump systems from all major brands. We size the equipment to your house, square footage, insulation, ductwork, not to whatever's in stock. An oversized system is almost as bad as a broken one.

If your system is running right now but the house isn't cooling down, start here: what to check before you call. Four of those checks take about two minutes and don't need any tools.

Seasonal Tune-Ups

A spring tune-up before the first heat wave is the best money you'll spend on your AC all year. We clean the coils, check refrigerant, test the capacitor and contactor, clear the condensate drain, and make sure the system is ready to run hard when it needs to.

Most problems we find during tune-ups, a weak capacitor, a slightly low refrigerant charge, dirty coils, cost $50 to $150 to fix. The same problems left alone become a breakdown on the hottest day of the year when every HVAC company in the county is backed up.

Brands We Service and Install

We work on Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Rheem, Goodman, Bryant, American Standard, Ruud, York, and Daikin. If your unit is a different brand, call us anyway. We work on everything.

Frequently Asked Questions

My AC is running all day but the house won't cool down. What's wrong?
A few things. Low refrigerant is common. The system runs but can't move enough heat out. A dirty evaporator or condenser coil will do the same thing. It could also be a refrigerant leak, a failing compressor, or just a system that's undersized for your house. We'll check it and tell you what's actually happening.
How long does an AC installation take?
Most replacements take 4 to 6 hours for a straightforward swap. If we're running new refrigerant lines or doing any electrical work, add a couple hours. We'll give you a realistic timeline when we quote the job.
What's the difference between a tune-up and a repair?
A tune-up is preventive maintenance. We clean the coils, check refrigerant levels, test the electrical components, and make sure everything is running the way it should. A repair means something has already failed and needs to be fixed. A tune-up often catches the things that would have become repairs.
My AC unit is 15 years old. Should I repair it or replace it?
At 15 years it depends on the repair. A capacitor or contactor is cheap and worth fixing. A compressor on a 15-year-old unit is usually not worth it. The compressor costs about as much as a new system and the rest of the unit is still aging. We'll give you both numbers.
Do you work on ductless mini-splits?
Yes. We install and service ductless mini-split systems. They're a good option for additions, garages, or rooms that your central system doesn't reach well.
