Hot & Cold HVAC has been keeping Wilton families comfortable through every season. We understand what it’s like when your AC breaks down during those brutal summer days when temperatures hit the mid-90s.
Living in Wilton means dealing with hot, dry summers and the unique challenges that come with rural properties—larger homes, older systems, and the need for reliable service when you’re not close to everything. We’ve worked on everything from ranch-style homes to equestrian properties, and we know what it takes to keep your space comfortable.
When we say we’ll be there, we show up. When we give you a price, that’s what you pay. Simple as that.
First, we listen. You tell us what’s happening—whether your AC isn’t cooling, making strange noises, or won’t turn on at all. We ask a few questions to understand the situation better.
Next, we diagnose the actual problem. Not just the obvious symptom, but what’s really causing the issue. We use professional diagnostic tools and explain exactly what we find in plain English.
Then we give you options. Sometimes it’s a simple fix, sometimes you need a part, and occasionally the whole system needs attention. We’ll tell you the cost upfront and let you decide what makes sense for your situation and budget.
Finally, we fix it right the first time. We use quality parts, clean up after ourselves, and make sure everything is working properly before we leave.

We handle all types of air conditioning problems, from simple fixes to complex system issues. Compressor problems, refrigerant leaks, electrical issues, thermostat malfunctions, ductwork problems—we’ve seen it all and know how to fix it.
In Wilton’s climate, your AC works hard from May through September. Those 268 sunny days per year and summer temperatures in the 90s put serious stress on cooling systems. We understand how local conditions affect your equipment and what it takes to keep everything running efficiently.
Whether you have a central air system, heat pump, or ductless mini-split, we have the expertise and parts to get it working again. We service all major brands and can usually complete repairs the same day.
We understand that AC problems can’t wait, especially during Wilton’s hot summers when temperatures reach the mid-90s. Most service calls are scheduled within 24 hours, and we offer same-day service for urgent situations.
For true emergencies—like when your system completely fails during a heat wave—we prioritize those calls and work to get a technician out as quickly as possible. We know how uncomfortable and potentially dangerous it can be when your cooling system isn’t working.
When you call, we’ll give you a realistic timeframe and keep you updated if anything changes. No leaving you wondering when help will arrive.
Repair costs depend on what’s actually wrong with your system. Simple fixes like replacing a capacitor or cleaning components might run $150-300. More complex issues involving compressors or major electrical problems can range from $500-1500 or more.
We always provide upfront pricing before starting any work. You’ll know exactly what the repair will cost, with no hidden fees or surprises. If we discover additional problems during the repair, we’ll discuss those with you before proceeding.
For major repairs that approach the cost of replacement, we’ll be honest about whether fixing or replacing makes more financial sense. We’re not here to sell you something you don’t need.
Yes, we work on all major types of cooling systems commonly found in Wilton homes. Central air conditioning, heat pumps, ductless mini-splits, and older window units—we have the experience and tools to diagnose and repair them all.
We service all major brands including Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Goodman, Rheem, and many others. Our technicians stay current with training on new technologies and older systems alike, so we can handle whatever you have.
Rural properties in Wilton sometimes have unique setups or older equipment. We’ve worked on everything from standard residential systems to larger units cooling horse barns and workshop spaces.
Generally, if your system is under 10 years old and the repair cost is less than half the price of replacement, repair usually makes sense. For older systems requiring expensive repairs, replacement might be more cost-effective long-term.
Signs that repair is probably the right choice include minor issues like refrigerant leaks, fan motor problems, or thermostat issues. Signs that replacement might make more sense include frequent breakdowns, dramatically higher energy bills, or major component failures in older systems.
We’ll always give you honest advice about what makes the most financial sense. If your 15-year-old system needs a $2,000 compressor, we’ll discuss whether that money might be better invested in a new, more efficient system.
First, check your thermostat settings and make sure it’s set to “cool” and the temperature is set lower than the current room temperature. Also check your circuit breaker to see if it’s tripped.
Look at your air filter—if it’s extremely dirty, a clogged filter can cause the system to shut down as a safety measure. If these simple checks don’t solve the problem, it’s time to call for professional help.
Don’t try to troubleshoot electrical components or refrigerant issues yourself. These can be dangerous and you might cause more expensive damage. Turn the system off and call us for proper diagnosis and repair.
Yes, regular maintenance is the best way to avoid unexpected breakdowns and keep your system running efficiently through Wilton’s demanding summer season. Our maintenance service includes cleaning, inspection, and minor adjustments that keep everything working properly.
During a maintenance visit, we clean coils, check refrigerant levels, inspect electrical connections, test all components, and replace filters. We’ll also let you know about any potential issues before they become expensive problems.
Most AC manufacturers recommend annual maintenance, and it’s especially important in our climate where systems work hard for months at a time. Regular maintenance typically extends equipment life and helps maintain energy efficiency, saving money on utility bills.
