What to Expect During Air Conditioning Repair Service Call

Our first step is to check the thermostat to make sure the settings are correct. Also, our repair technician will verify the A/C is set to cool and lower the temperature so the A/C should start or continue to run. The technician will make sure the thermostat batteries are not low.

After checking the thermostat, the air conditioning repair technician will go to the electrical panel to see if the breaker tripped. We are in Florida, the lightning capital of the world, so a storm could of caused a surge and the breaker needs a reset.

Following checking these items, the A/C repair tech will follow our inspection checklist. Our checklist includes checking the air filter to see if it is causing a restriction in airflow, we will check the compressor and motors, use our digital gauges to check the refrigerant levels, check the electrical components, and inspect the ductwork such as the return air sizing.

After we go through our inspection, we will go over any issues we’ve identified, go over your air conditioning repair options and pricing, and allow you to make the best decision for your needs. If you decide to go through with a repair, our technician perform the repair if the parts are available on the van or schedule a follow-up appointment. After the repair, we will perform our inspection process again to make sure the air conditioning system is running smoothly. There are times when the technician might not be able to identify an underlying issue until a certain repair is made first, such as if the A/C is not running due to a failed component, and our technician will explain this during the review.

Comfort Peeps goal is to gain your trust

We ask and listen to our customers why Air Conditioning Contractors are distrusted and have a stigma of being dishonest.

We have heard the following and here is where we try to be different.

The A/C was working fine before our yearly service and afterward, it has been running worse or stopped working.
- This is a very frustrating experience. At Comfort Peeps, we work on hiring the best technician’s skill-wise but also take pride in their work. Also, we have our repair techs attend training courses and further their education in new technology, different brands, and the latest techniques. There are times when we do make a mistake, we ask you to give us a call and we will come back out without any extra charges. We track these mistakes and update our procedures to minimize them, and why we are selective in our hiring practices.
You received a quote for a major repair, and we received a second opinion that only a minor/lower-cost repair was needed.
- We understand it is critical to have highly trained technicians and a detailed inspection process. We have seen inexperienced technicians recommend a compressor replacement when it needs a capacitor or a coil replacement when a small valve needs to be tightened. Over time, we have developed procedures for inspection and repairs that set our standards high and recommend the correct repair. It keeps us up at night to provide a team and system that our recommended repairs and repairs are correct, and we share the mutual desire that the repair we provide is efficient, and correct, and we can leave your home air conditioning working correctly, and not to call us back unless it is to schedule a yearly service or join our membership club.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is my AC leaking water?

The primary function of an air conditioner is to remove moisture from the air and channel it into a drain. When appropriately sized, the cooling effect is often secondary or incidental. However, the drain can become obstructed by dirt, especially if the air filtration system is inadequate.

Another serious cause of AC leaks is ice formation. When refrigerant levels are low or airflow is restricted, the AC coil near your furnace or air handler can freeze. As the ice forms, it eventually exceeds the capacity of the drain system and then defrosts. This water can seep into dark areas, promoting mildew growth, or even damage electronic components, compromising your HVAC system. Carefully inspect with the power off and a good flashlight to identify the source of the water. Often, a professional HVAC technician can save you a lot of frustration.

Is it necessary to service my AC every year?

Servicing your AC annually is the best way to prevent problems or major repairs. A malfunctioning system in extremely hot temperatures is not only uncomfortable but also unsafe. An annual tune-up by a professional, licensed HVAC contractor ensures your system is clean and operating efficiently and safely.

How often should AC coils be cleaned?

AC coils should be cleaned annually during the spring or summer months to prevent costly repairs or issues. During an AC cleaning, a licensed HVAC technician will check the coil for cleanliness, leaks, and refrigerant levels. All electrical components are inspected for safety and performance. The technician will also inspect and change your filters, but it’s important to change your filter regularly each month between seasonal tune-ups of your HVAC system.

Do air conditioners need to be serviced?

For optimal performance, air conditioners should be serviced annually to ensure proper operation and efficiency. An AC tune-up includes cleaning the condenser coils, testing refrigerant levels, inspecting the indoor blower motor and wheel, and checking for leaks and debris. Neglecting annual maintenance can result in decreased performance and efficiency, as well as costly repairs.

What is the difference between R-22 and R-410A refrigerants?

R-22, commonly known as Freon, is an older type of refrigerant, whereas R-410A is used in newer air conditioners and rooftop units. In January 2020, R-22 was phased out and is no longer being manufactured.

How can I save money on my AC?

If you are purchasing a new AC, be sure to request estimates from several professionally licensed contractors. When comparing quotes, consider the following:

Research the HVAC contractor’s reputation, skill, and background.
Study reviews and assess the quality of the equipment manufacturer.
Compare pricing to find the best balance between a qualified contractor and quality equipment.

Since purchasing an AC is a significant investment, carefully consider what you are receiving. Avoid trying to save money by doing it yourself or hiring a handyman; only a licensed professional HVAC contractor should handle the installation. Doing otherwise can lead to higher costs and void your manufacturer’s warranty. Hiring a professional ensures your AC will be installed correctly, saving you money and keeping you cool and comfortable all summer long.
