We service all major AC brands and handle everything from simple fixes to complex system repairs. Compressor replacements, refrigerant leaks, electrical issues, thermostat problems, and ductwork repairs are all within our expertise.
Sacramento’s hot summers put extra stress on air conditioning systems. We understand how dust, extreme heat, and temperature fluctuations affect different AC components in this climate.
Our service includes thorough system cleaning, performance testing, and recommendations for preventing future breakdowns. Every repair comes with our workmanship warranty because we stand behind our work and want your AC running reliably all season long.
We offer same-day emergency AC repair service during Sacramento’s extreme heat events. Our technicians carry common parts and diagnostic equipment to resolve most AC problems in a single visit.
During heat waves, we prioritize emergency calls and extend our service hours. We understand that AC failures during 100+ degree weather aren’t just uncomfortable—they can be dangerous for vulnerable family members.
Call us early in the day for the fastest response time. Most emergency repairs are completed within 4-6 hours of your call, depending on the complexity of the problem and parts availability.
AC repair costs vary based on the specific problem, required parts, and system complexity. Simple fixes like thermostat replacement might cost $150-300, while compressor repairs can range from $800-2000.
We provide upfront pricing before starting any work. No hidden fees, no surprise charges when the job is done. You’ll know exactly what you’re paying before we touch your system.
Our diagnostic fee is applied toward the repair cost if you choose to proceed with our service. This approach ensures you’re making an informed decision about your AC repair investment.
Yes, we repair AC systems of all ages, including older units common in established Sacramento neighborhoods. Our technicians have experience with legacy equipment and can often find parts for systems other companies consider “too old.”
However, we’ll be honest about when repair costs exceed the value of fixing an aging system. Sometimes investing in a newer, more efficient unit makes better financial sense than expensive repairs on old equipment.
We’ll explain your options clearly—repair, replace, or temporary fixes—so you can make the best decision for your situation and budget.
While we can’t prevent every possible AC failure, regular maintenance significantly reduces breakdown frequency and extends system life. Sacramento’s harsh summers and dusty conditions require more frequent attention than milder climates.
Our maintenance service includes cleaning coils, checking refrigerant levels, inspecting electrical connections, and replacing filters. We also identify potential problems before they cause complete system failures.
Most AC breakdowns happen gradually, not suddenly. Regular maintenance catches these developing issues early when repairs are less expensive and less disruptive to your comfort.
Sacramento’s extreme heat and dust create specific AC challenges. Dirty coils reduce efficiency and cause systems to work harder. Refrigerant leaks develop faster in high-heat conditions, and electrical components fail more frequently.
Clogged air filters are extremely common due to Sacramento’s dusty conditions, especially during fire season. Many homeowners don’t realize how quickly filters become blocked in this environment.
Thermostat problems also increase during heat waves when systems run continuously. We see many calls for “broken” AC units that actually just need thermostat recalibration or replacement after extended high-temperature operation.
Yes, all our AC repairs include a workmanship warranty. The specific warranty period depends on the type of repair performed, but we typically guarantee our work for 90 days to one year.
Parts warranties vary by manufacturer, but we use quality components that come with manufacturer guarantees. We’ll explain both our workmanship warranty and parts coverage before starting your repair.
If the same problem reoccurs within the warranty period due to our workmanship, we’ll return and fix it at no additional charge. We want you confident in the repair quality and your AC’s reliability.
