Air conditioning repair

AC repair that gets to the real problem.

When the house is getting warmer and the system is not keeping up, the first job is to understand why. Big Chill troubleshoots the equipment, airflow, controls, and drainage before laying out the next step.

Reasons to call

  • The system runs but the air is not cold
  • Airflow feels weak at multiple vents
  • The outdoor unit will not start or keeps stopping
  • The system short-cycles or trips a breaker
  • Ice is forming on the refrigerant line or coil
  • Water is collecting around the indoor unit

What the diagnosis may cover

  • Thermostat, controls, safeties, and sequence of operation
  • Electrical components and system startup
  • Airflow, filter condition, blower, and coil condition
  • Refrigerant temperatures and operating performance
  • Condensate drain, pan, and water safeties
  • Repair options based on the actual failure

Common questions

Before you call.

These answers are general. The equipment and conditions at the property determine the right next step.

Should I turn the AC off if the system is frozen?

Yes. Turn cooling off to prevent additional icing and call for service. If it is safe to do so, the indoor fan may be left on to help thaw the coil, but do not chip ice away.

How do I know if repair or replacement makes more sense?

System age, repair cost, repeat failures, comfort, efficiency, and the condition of the indoor and outdoor equipment all matter. Big Chill will explain the repair first and discuss replacement only when it deserves consideration.

Do you service heat-pump cooling systems?

Yes, Big Chill services residential heat-pump systems. Call or text with the equipment type, location, and symptoms so availability can be confirmed.
