Emergency HVAC Repair Service

Whether it’s a problem with your residential system or an issue with your commercial heating and cooling unit, our emergency HVAC repair service takes the hassle out of finding the right professional to call in to fix the problem. When you’re concerned about your heating or cooling infrastructure outside of regular business hours, don’t hesitate to call us for timely and cost-effective assistance.

Thermostat Repairs

Your thermostat is the control center of your heating and cooling system. Issues with it can significantly impact the performance and efficiency of your HVAC equipment.

Common thermostat problems include:

• Incorrect temperature readings
• Unresponsiveness
• Short cycling (your system turns on and off rapidly)
• Erratic heating and cooling
• Operational failure

Problems with HVAC controls can be caused by dead batteries, electrical wiring problems, dust and dirt buildup, or your thermostat simply wearing out over time. Repair your thermostat promptly to avoid higher energy bills, uneven room temperatures, premature equipment failure, and potential safety hazards.

AC Leak Repairs

AC leaks can typically be traced back to one of the following five sources:

Refrigerant leaks

Leaking refrigerant is one of the most common reasons for a leaky AC unit. Refrigerant is the substance responsible for cooling the air in your AC system. Leaks in refrigerant lines can develop from corrosion, physical damage, and poor installation. This type of leak reduces the cooling efficiency of your system and can pose significant environmental and health hazards.

What Should You Do When You Suspect an AC Refrigerant Leak?

When you suspect an AC refrigerant leak, you should take prompt action to address the issue.

Here's what you should do:

• Turn off your AC system: As soon as you suspect a refrigerant leak, turn off your AC system to prevent further leakage and potential damage. Continuing to run your AC with a refrigerant leak can lead to decreased cooling efficiency, increased energy consumption, and possible damage to the compressor.
• Don't attempt a refrigerant leak repair: Attempting to repair a refrigerant leak yourself can be dangerous and may further damage the system. Safety measures, equipment, and protection are required to mitigate hazard risks.
• Avoid exposure to refrigerant: Refrigerant leaks can release harmful chemicals into the air, posing health risks if inhaled. Avoid direct contact with the leaked refrigerant and ensure the area is well-ventilated. If you suspect a large leak or feel unwell, evacuate the area and seek medical attention if necessary.
• Don't attempt to refill the refrigerant: It's important you don't attempt to refill the refrigerant yourself. Adding refrigerant without addressing the underlying leak is only a temporary solution and can lead to further leaks or damage to the unit.

Condensate Drain Line Clogs

AC units produce condensation as they cool warm air. This moisture needs to be drained away. When condensate drain lines become clogged due to dirt, algae, or debris buildup, water can back up and leak into surrounding areas.

Frozen Evaporator Coils

When the evaporator coils inside your AC unit freeze because of insufficient airflow or refrigerant issues, ice can build up on them. As the ice melts, it overwhelms your condensate drain pan, leading to leaks.

Faulty AC Installation or Maintenance

Improper installation or inadequate maintenance can contribute to AC leaks. For example, when your AC unit isn't leveled during installation, water can pool and leak. Similarly, neglecting routine maintenance tasks like cleaning or replacing air filters can lead to issues like frozen coils or clogged drain lines.

Worn or Damaged Air Conditioner Components

Various AC system components, like seals, gaskets, and condensate drain pans, can wear out or become damaged over time. When these components fail, water or refrigerant can leak out of your AC system.

Ductwork Repairs

Air leaks are one of the most common reasons for ductwork repairs. Air can leak at joints, seams, or ductwork connections. These leaks reduce efficiency and comfort as conditioned air escapes into unconditioned spaces. Signs of air leaks include uneven heating or cooling, excessive dust accumulation, and whistling noises coming from your ducts.

Another common problem is inadequate insulation, which results in energy loss and temperature fluctuations. Inspect your ductwork for insufficient or damaged insulation, particularly in areas exposed to extreme temperatures. Poor airflow due to obstructions, like debris or collapsed sections of ductwork, is another prevalent issue. Check for blockages or restrictions in the ducts that impede airflow and reduce system efficiency.

How Do You Know When Your Ductwork Needs to Be Replaced?

Knowing when your ductwork needs to be replaced involves recognizing signs of deterioration, inefficiency, or damage.

Here are several indicators that it might be time to consider replacing your ductwork:

• Visible damage: Inspect your ductwork for signs of damage, including dents, tears, rust, or corrosion. Severe damage can compromise the integrity of the ducts and lead to leaks or inefficiencies.
• Age of your ductwork: Ductwork has a typical lifespan of around 10 to 15 years. When your ducts are approaching or surpassing this age range, it may be time to consider replacement, especially if they show signs of wear and tear.
• Poor Air Quality: When you notice a persistent buildup of dust, dirt, or mold inside the ducts despite regular cleaning, it could indicate that your ductwork is deteriorating and needs replacement to improve indoor air quality.
• Uneven heating or cooling: Inefficient ductwork can result in uneven air distribution throughout your space, leading to hot or cold spots. If you consistently experience temperature variations between rooms, it could be a sign that your ductwork isn't functioning correctly and needs replacement.
• Noisy ductwork: Excessive rattling, banging, or whistling noises coming from the ductwork could signal loose or damaged ducts. While some noise is normal, persistent or loud sounds may indicate a need for replacement.

HVAC Maintenance

HVAC maintenance is your ticket to a system that performs reliably for longer. If it’s been a while since your last heating and cooling system inspection, it’s a good idea to schedule an appointment to gain a clear picture of the health and longevity of this essential infrastructure. Allow us to perform a thorough diagnostic inspection to help you uncover minor problems and stop them from becoming more involved and costly repairs or replacements in the future.
