Refrigerant leaks are problems that we deal with on a regular basis. It’s not that air conditioners are supposed to leak refrigerant—they most certainly are not. It’s just that this problem can contribute to other issues in a variety of ways. Is your AC keeping up poorly with your cooling demands? It could be a refrigerant leak. Are your energy bills too high? This also could be due to a refrigerant leak.
So, imagine you’re sitting comfortably in your home on one of the hottest days of the year, and all of a sudden something happens. This is the event that every HVAC technician warns you about, the occurrence of a sudden breakdown. Your air conditioner stops working and you’re left with silence and the knowledge that your home is about to get a lot hotter.
Frozen coils are a problem we see fairly often. It’s an unfortunate product of a cooling system gone awry in one way or another. While it’s obvious when your air conditioner is freezing up, it might not be so obvious what the exact culprit is. That’s where we come in!
When it comes to temperatures and the elements, your air conditioner is more than capable of standing on its own—but when homeowners do something they shouldn’t, an AC could be in trouble. That’s why we always tell homeowners to contact the professional members of our team for anything related to

What’s the best air conditioning system for a home? Surely it’s a heat pump, with the ability to both cool and heat a home throughout the entire year. Or perhaps you’re ready to upgrade to a ductless mini split that’s hyper-efficient and able to perform similar functions to a heat pump? Well, what about a central air conditioner, there’s got to be a reason why homeowners still depend on those systems still, right?
Deciding whether or not to replace or repair your air conditioner can be one of the hardest decisions to make. After all, these systems are expensive to replace, they’re supposed to last for over a decade, and summers can be unbearable without them. The repercussions of this type of decision will stick with you for a while, so you’re going to want to make the most informed decision possible. That’s why we’re here to help!
In the 21st century, we’ve found exceptionally energy-efficient ways to produce cooling and heating in our homes. By using electricity, refrigerant, and fans in profound ways, we’ve been able to cool our homes without ice for decades. However, most homeowners don’t know how air conditioners work, and thus they still think that ice forming on their coil is good. We’re here to tell you that it’s not.
Air conditioning systems, especially the well-built ones, shouldn’t smell. That’s because they deal with the air in your home and the air outside, so unless the air all around us smells bad, your nose shouldn’t notice anything. Air conditioners, just like cars, don’t smell bad when they work perfectly well, and if they do start to smell—then it’s high time you had the problem checked out by a professional.
