Everything Your System Needs to Run Right

Every AC repair service includes comprehensive system testing to catch potential problems before they become expensive breakdowns. Our technicians check refrigerant levels, electrical connections, airflow, and all major components.

You also get honest advice about your system’s overall condition and realistic expectations about its remaining lifespan. This helps you plan ahead instead of being surprised by sudden failures.

Kingston’s coastal climate creates unique challenges for AC systems, from salt air corrosion to high humidity loads. Our technicians understand these local conditions and know how to service systems that deal with these specific environmental factors year after year.

Response times depend on the day and current service load, but emergency AC repairs typically receive same-day or next-day service during peak season. We prioritize emergency calls, especially for customers without any cooling, elderly residents, or homes with medical needs. During extremely busy periods in peak summer, you’ll get an honest timeframe upfront rather than false promises. It’s worth calling as early as possible when you notice problems, since issues tend to worsen quickly in hot weather and early calls often get faster service slots.
Adding refrigerant without finding the leak is like putting a band-aid on a broken pipe – it might work temporarily, but the problem will return. Proper AC repair identifies why the refrigerant is low in the first place, whether that’s a leak, faulty component, or system issue. A quality repair fixes the underlying cause, tests the entire system, and ensures proper refrigerant levels for long-term operation. Simply adding refrigerant to a leaking system wastes money and often damages other components over time, leading to more expensive repairs later.
Age is the biggest factor – systems over 12-15 years old with major component failures often make more sense to replace than repair. However, newer systems with single component issues are usually worth repairing. The cost matters too: if repair costs exceed 50% of replacement cost, replacement often makes more financial sense. Our technicians will give you honest recommendations based on your system’s condition, repair costs, and expected lifespan. We’ll explain the math so you can make an informed decision without pressure either way.
Recurring breakdowns usually indicate underlying issues that weren’t properly addressed in previous repairs, lack of regular maintenance, or a system that’s oversized or undersized for your home. Poor installation can also cause chronic problems that seem like random failures. Kingston’s coastal environment adds stress to AC systems through salt air and high humidity, making regular maintenance even more important. A thorough system evaluation can identify these root causes and provide solutions that prevent the annual breakdown cycle, saving you money and frustration long-term.
Close blinds and curtains to block sunlight, use fans to circulate air, and avoid using heat-generating appliances like ovens or dryers during the hottest parts of the day. Check your air filter – a severely clogged filter can cause system shutdowns and is an easy fix. Make sure your thermostat is set correctly and has working batteries. If you have a basement or lower level, spend time there since cool air naturally settles. Don’t attempt DIY repairs on electrical or refrigerant components, as these can be dangerous and may void warranties or create bigger problems.
Yes, we service all major AC brands and models, from newer high-efficiency units to older systems that are no longer manufactured. Our technicians carry common parts for most brands and can source specialized components when needed. We’re experienced with different system types including central air, ductless mini-splits, and heat pumps. Even if your system is older or an uncommon brand, we can usually provide effective repairs. However, parts availability and cost for very old systems will be discussed upfront so you can make informed decisions about repair versus replacement.
