When your AC breaks down in New Era Park’s summer heat, every minute counts. You’re not looking for someone who might show up next week – you need a technician who understands that 90-degree days don’t wait for convenient scheduling.
That’s exactly what you get with our same-day AC repair service. We know California summers, and we know that a broken air conditioner isn’t just an inconvenience – it’s an emergency that affects your family’s comfort, your sleep, and your daily routine.
Our experienced technicians arrive equipped to diagnose and fix the problem on the first visit. No guesswork, no return trips for parts, no excuses about why your repair is taking longer than expected.
Hot & Cold HVAC has been keeping Sacramento area homes comfortable for years, and we’ve learned a few things about what matters most to New Era Park residents. You want honest pricing, skilled technicians, and repairs that actually last.
We’re not the company that shows up, replaces one part, and hopes for the best. Our technicians are trained to identify the root cause of your AC problems – whether it’s a failing capacitor, refrigerant leak, or electrical issue that’s been building up for months.
Every repair comes with our lifetime guarantee because we stand behind our work. When we fix your AC, it stays fixed.
Here’s how we handle your AC repair from start to finish. First, you call us and we schedule a same-day appointment – no waiting around for days hoping someone can squeeze you in. Our technician arrives on time with a fully stocked truck, ready to handle the most common AC problems without additional trips.
We start with a complete diagnostic to identify exactly what’s wrong with your system. You’ll get a clear explanation of the problem and an upfront price before any work begins. No hidden fees, no surprise charges after the fact.
Once you approve the repair, we get to work. Most AC repairs are completed the same day, and you’ll have cool air flowing again before dinner time. We clean up after ourselves, test the system thoroughly, and make sure you understand what we fixed and how to prevent future problems.
Ready to get started?
Our AC repair service covers everything from simple filter replacements to complex compressor rebuilds. We handle refrigerant leaks, electrical problems, thermostat issues, and airflow restrictions that keep your home from staying cool.
New Era Park’s location in the Sacramento area means your AC works harder than systems in milder climates. Summer temperatures regularly hit the 90s and 100s, putting extra stress on every component. We see the problems that develop from this constant use – worn capacitors, dirty coils, and refrigerant leaks that gradually reduce cooling efficiency.
That’s why our repair service includes a complete system inspection. We don’t just fix the immediate problem; we identify potential issues that could cause breakdowns later in the season. It’s better to replace a wearing part during a scheduled repair than to deal with an emergency failure during the next heat wave.
We offer same-day AC repair service for most problems. When you call before 2 PM, we can typically have a technician at your home the same day. Emergency repairs are available 24/7 for complete system failures.
The key is calling as soon as you notice a problem. If your AC is blowing warm air, making unusual noises, or cycling on and off frequently, don’t wait to see if it gets worse. Early intervention usually means simpler, less expensive repairs.
For complex problems that require special parts, we’ll provide a temporary solution to keep you cool while we order what’s needed. We never leave you without air conditioning during a heat wave.
Our lifetime guarantee covers the specific repair we perform and the parts we install. If the same problem occurs again due to our workmanship or a defective part, we’ll return and fix it at no charge for as long as you own your home.
This doesn’t mean your entire AC system is guaranteed forever – normal wear and tear on other components isn’t covered. But the repair we complete will be done right the first time, and we’ll stand behind that work.
We can offer this guarantee because our technicians are experienced and we use quality replacement parts. We’re not interested in quick fixes that fail after a few months. When we repair your AC, we want it to stay repaired.
Most AC repairs in the Sacramento area range from $150 to $1,200, depending on what needs to be fixed. Simple problems like replacing a capacitor or thermostat usually cost under $500. More complex issues like compressor problems or refrigerant leaks can run $800 to $1,200.
We provide upfront pricing before starting any work, so you’ll know exactly what the repair will cost. No surprises, no additional charges after we’re done. If the repair cost approaches the price of a replacement system, we’ll discuss your options honestly.
Emergency repairs during weekends or after hours include an additional service fee, but we’ll explain all charges before scheduling the appointment. Sometimes waiting until regular business hours can save you money if the problem isn’t critical.
If your AC is over 10 years old and needs a major repair costing more than $1,500, replacement usually makes more financial sense. Newer systems are significantly more energy-efficient and reliable than older units, especially in California’s demanding climate.
We use a simple calculation: multiply your system’s age by the repair cost. If the result exceeds $5,000, replacement is typically the better choice. For example, a 12-year-old system needing an $800 repair equals $9,600, suggesting replacement would be wiser.
However, if your system is well-maintained and the repair is minor, fixing it can give you several more years of service. We’ll give you an honest assessment of your system’s condition and help you make the decision that makes the most financial sense.
Yes, we repair all major AC brands including Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Goodman, Rheem, and York. Our technicians are trained on central air systems, heat pumps, ductless mini-splits, and package units commonly installed in New Era Park homes.
We stock parts for the most common repairs and can usually complete the work the same day. For older or specialty systems, we have access to a wide network of suppliers and can typically get parts within 24-48 hours.
Brand doesn’t matter as much as proper diagnosis and quality repair work. Whether you have a high-end system or a basic unit, we approach every repair with the same attention to detail and commitment to getting it right the first time.
The most frequent problems we see are refrigerant leaks, failed capacitors, and dirty coils that reduce cooling efficiency. California’s extreme summer heat puts constant stress on AC systems, causing these components to wear out faster than in milder climates.
Refrigerant leaks develop gradually and cause your AC to blow warm air or run constantly without cooling your home effectively. Capacitors fail suddenly, usually during the hottest days when your system is working hardest. Dirty coils make your AC work harder and use more energy to achieve the same cooling.
Regular maintenance can prevent most of these problems, but when they do occur, quick repair is essential. Running an AC with low refrigerant or a failing capacitor can damage the compressor, turning a $300 repair into a $2,000 replacement. That’s why we recommend calling at the first sign of trouble rather than hoping the problem resolves itself.
