Air Conditioning Repair

If your air conditioner suddenly stops working, you need professional service, and you need it fast. While some AC problems are easy to recognize — a unit that won’t turn on, for example — it’s not always obvious when it’s time to call an expert.

You’ll want to give us a call if you experience any of the following common AC problems:

  • A dirty and/or clogged AC filter
  • Decreased cooling efficiency
  • Unusual increases on your energy bill
  • Uneven cooling throughout your home

  • Thermostat problems
  • Strange, loud noises
  • Unpleasant smells
  • Frequent cycling
  • Lack of cool air
  • A unit that won’t turn on

If you notice these or any other issues with your air conditioner, it’s probably time to enlist the assistance of a trained AC professional. Our technicians will take a look at the various components of your air conditioning system, including the filter, evaporator coils, compressor, breakers and fuses, condenser coils, and other elements, checking for signs of wear and tear or damage. We’ll provide you with our honest recommendations for air conditioning repair or replacement and then help you find the perfect solution for your home or business.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I change my AC filter?

It’s recommended to check and potentially replace your filter every one to three months, depending on usage and environmental factors.

What is a SEER rating?

SEER stands for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio. It measures the efficiency of an AC unit. A higher SEER rating indicates better energy efficiency.

How does an air conditioner work?

An AC works by removing heat from the inside of a building and transferring it outside. It does this using a refrigeration cycle involving a compressor, a condenser, an expansion valve, and an evaporator.

Can I run my AC with windows open?

While you can, it’s not recommended as it reduces the efficiency of the AC, making it work harder and increasing energy consumption.

Why is my AC blowing warm air?

This could be due to a dirty air filter, low refrigerant levels, or issues with the compressor. A clogged air filter can restrict airflow, causing the system to overheat and blow warm air. Additionally, if the refrigerant levels are low, the system cannot cool the air effectively.

Problems with the compressor, which is responsible for circulating the refrigerant, can also lead to inadequate cooling.

    After finding out my toilet was leaking and the panicky scramble of “what do I do’s”, I called Preferred Home Services. They were able to come out and fix the issue all within a few hours.

    Very happy with Preferred Home Services. They were very professional and courteous during the installations. They were very efficient and took time to explain everything to me before and after, and very prompt with follow-up questions.

    ~ Katie V.

    At 6 PM on a 95-degree day, I noticed that my system was not cooling and was in fact down. I called and was pleased to have someone pick up the phone and listen to the symptoms of the problem. They ultimately dispatched a repair person who was able to get the system up and running by 8:30 PM in advance of a long, hot holiday weekend, I was very pleased with the prompt response to my emergency.

    ~ Bruce H.

    They installed a new unit and replaced all the duct work under my house. They did a great job and were very professional and had the job done in just two days! I will highly recommend this company to anyone needing work.
