Why call us for central AC repair

Why Homeowners Call Us for Central AC Repair

Central AC repair from Affordable Air Inc. starts with measurements: temperature split, refrigerant pressures, capacitor values and amp draw. Our trucks carry the parts that fail most on hot days, so many calls finish on the first visit. You get the price before work, and on older R-22 systems we show you repair and replacement costs side by side. Call (866) 703-1217.

Test before replace

We read capacitor values, winding resistance and amp draw before we call any part bad. A lot of dead compressors in the United States turn out to be a much cheaper part.

Parts on the truck

Capacitors, contactors, fan motors, fuses and float switches ride with our crew, so many central AC repair calls finish on the first visit.

Price before work

You get the repair price before we start. Nothing gets done without your say.

Honest repair or replace

On an older R-22 system we show you the repair cost next to the replacement cost and let you choose.

Leaks fixed, not topped off

We find the leak, repair it, pull a vacuum to 500 microns and weigh in the charge to the nameplate.

Spring AC tune up

An AC tune up covers coil cleaning, electrical tests and drain service so July stays quiet in the United States.

How a repair call works

Four steps to central AC repair in USA

Call and describe it

Tell us what the system is doing: warm air, no power, ice on the lines, water in the pan. That narrows the list before our crew arrives in USA.

We measure first

Our crew reads temperature split, refrigerant pressures, capacitor values and amp draw, so the diagnosis rests on numbers and not a guess.

Price before work

You get the repair price before we start. If a part costs more than the system is worth, we say so.

Test and walk through

After the repair we run the system, check the split again and show you what we found and what we fixed.

Central AC Repair: What Our Crew Checks First

Central AC repair goes faster and costs less when the diagnosis is right. A central air system has two halves: the outdoor condenser with the compressor, fan motor, capacitor and contactor, and the indoor side with the evaporator coil, blower, drain pan and condensate line. Most failures happen in a small set of parts, and our crew checks them in order.

AC not cooling or blowing warm air

An AC not cooling is the call we get most. We start by measuring the temperature split across the indoor coil. A healthy system drops return air about 15 to 20 degrees. A small split points to low refrigerant, a dirty coil or weak airflow. If the outdoor fan is not spinning and the unit hums, the run capacitor is the first suspect. If the fan runs but the larger copper line is warm, the compressor may not be pumping. We read capacitor values in microfarads and compressor amp draw before we call any part bad.

Refrigerant leaks and frozen coils

Central AC systems are sealed, so low refrigerant means a leak. Our crew traces leaks with an electronic detector and bubble solution, repairs them, pulls a vacuum to 500 microns and weighs in the charge. A frozen evaporator coil usually comes from low airflow or a low charge. Running a frozen system can send liquid refrigerant back to the compressor, so shut cooling off and run the fan until we arrive.

Drain line clogs and systems that won't turn on

Central air pulls gallons of water out of the air on a humid day. When the condensate line clogs with algae, the float switch shuts the system down, and it looks like the AC died. We clear the line, flush it and test the switch. A blown fuse on the control board, a tripped breaker or a loose thermostat wire causes the same no power symptom.

Price before work

After diagnosis you get the repair price before anything starts. If an older system is not worth the repair, we tell you. Call (866) 703-1217 for central AC repair.

AC Tune Up, R-22 Systems and SEER2: Repair or Replace?

A yearly AC tune up is the cheapest central AC repair you will ever pay for, because it catches weak parts before they fail. Our spring visit covers condenser coil cleaning, capacitor and contactor tests, fan motor amp draw, electrical connections, drain line clearing, float switch testing and a temperature split reading across the indoor coil. Book it before the first long hot week. By midsummer, schedules fill with systems that quit.

Older systems running R-22

R-22 refrigerant has not been produced or imported in the US since January 2020. Any R-22 that is left is reclaimed stock, and it is expensive. A small electrical repair on an R-22 system, like a capacitor or contactor, can still make sense. A big refrigerant leak or a failed compressor on one usually does not. Our crew gives you the repair cost next to the replacement cost so the decision is yours.

SEER2 and regional efficiency rules

Since January 2023, new central AC equipment has been rated in SEER2, and the federal minimum depends on where you live. The North region has the lowest floor. The Southeast region, which runs from Texas and Oklahoma across to Florida and up to Delaware and Maryland, has a higher minimum. The Southwest region of Arizona, California, Nevada and New Mexico adds an EER2 minimum for peak heat performance. Those rules raise the price of a new system in the South and Southwest, which makes a sound repair worth more there.

When repair makes sense

A system under ten years old with a failed capacitor, fan motor, contactor or drain problem is almost always worth repairing. A system over 15 years old with a leaking evaporator coil or a failed compressor deserves a hard look at replacement. In between, it depends on refrigerant type, the condition of the coils and how long you plan to stay in the house. We walk you through it with real numbers.

Central AC Repair FAQs

Common questions about central AC repair

Answers to common questions about central AC repair, AC tune up visits, refrigerant and what to expect when our crew arrives.

Talk to our crew

Why is my central AC running but not cooling the house?

The usual causes are a clogged filter, a dirty outdoor condenser coil, low refrigerant from a leak, or a failed capacitor that has stopped the outdoor unit while the indoor blower keeps running. Our crew measures the temperature split across the indoor coil to narrow it down before we quote anything.

How often should I get an AC tune up?

Once a year, in spring, before the first long stretch of hot weather. In long cooling season states, some homeowners book a second check in late summer. A yearly AC tune up catches weak capacitors, pitted contactors and clogged drain lines while they are still cheap fixes.

Is it worth repairing an older R-22 system?

Sometimes. R-22 has not been produced or imported in the US since 2020, so any recharge uses reclaimed refrigerant at a high price. A small electrical repair on an R-22 unit can still make sense. A major leak or a failed compressor on one usually does not. We'll give you both numbers.

Why is there ice on my AC lines?

Ice forms when the indoor coil gets too cold, usually from low airflow (dirty filter, dirty coil, weak blower) or low refrigerant charge. Turn cooling off and run the fan to thaw it, then call us. Running a frozen system can damage the compressor.

Can you just add refrigerant to my AC?

We can, but it rarely makes sense on its own. A central AC system is sealed, so low refrigerant means a leak. Topping it off without fixing the leak means the charge leaks out again. We find the leak, repair it and weigh in the correct charge.

Why is water leaking from my indoor unit?

Most of the time it is a clogged condensate drain line, a cracked or rusted drain pan, or a frozen coil that is melting. Turn the system off to limit water damage and call us. We clear the line, check the pan and test the safety float switch.
