Fast & Affordable Air Conditioning Repair

Air conditioning repair in Livermore is our most demanded service, and for good reason. During the summer months, the Tri-Valley can top 110 degrees, making it difficult to stay comfortable without a reliable air conditioning system. The good news is that our team treats these calls as the highest priority, so your family won’t have to wait long for relief. 

Here are some of the most common air conditioning system problems and complaints:

1. Lack of Maintenance
   Regular maintenance from a licensed contractor is a must.
2. Dirty Filter
   It should be changed every 3 months. Failing to change your filter can significantly impact the life and efficiency of your cooling system. 
3. Pilot Or Ignition System Failure
   Dirt and poor maintenance is the main cause of failure.
4. Thermostat Malfunction
   Check and change the batteries, thermometer with a 7-day program will save you money on utility bills.
5. Mechanical Wear and Tear
   Most systems are made to last 15 to 20 years depending on the climate. It’s always a good idea to have a safety service done every year to keep your family safe.
6. Unusual Furnace/Heater Noises
   Odd noises could be an indication of mechanical failure.. Replacing a motor, bearing, or fan blade may be needed to fix the problem. It’s not a good idea to ignore these warning signs.
7. Blown Fuses or Tripped Breakers
   The most common reason for a blown fuse or breaker is an air conditioner that is being overworked or one that is not sized properly.
8. Dirty Heat Exchanger or Evaporator Coil
   Lack of regular maintenance is most likely the cause of this. Dirt and debris can clog the system and significantly reduced the efficiency and shorten the life span.
9. Blower Runs Continuously
   This can happen for a few reasons, a tripped and bad safety switch, fan on at the thermostat, or summer switch. Check the thermostat setting before you make a call for service.
10. Water Leaks
    If you have a high-efficiency air conditioner it could have a backed-up condensate or cracked drain line. A service technician can determine the source of the problem.
