Is Your AC Struggling to Keep Up?

When your air conditioner stops cooling properly, waiting makes it worse. Small issues become expensive repairs. We diagnose the actual problem and give you options—not pressure.

Read More

Sacramento summers don't wait. When temperatures hit triple digits, your AC is working at maximum capacity. That's when worn parts fail, refrigerant leaks worsen, and minor electrical issues become major breakdowns.

Common problems we see:
- Refrigerant leaks reducing cooling capacity
- Failed capacitors preventing startup
- Frozen evaporator coils from airflow restrictions
- Faulty thermostats misreading temperatures
- Clogged condensate drains causing shutoffs

The longer these issues run, the harder your system works. That means higher energy bills and accelerated wear on expensive components like the compressor.

We've been diagnosing these problems since 1981. Our technicians don't guess—they test. And you'll know exactly what's wrong before any work begins.

Our 4-Step Solution Process

Transparent, effective, guaranteed results

1

Whole-Home Diagnostic

We test your entire system—not just the obvious symptom—to find the real problem.

Learn More

Our technicians arrive with professional diagnostic equipment to test every component: refrigerant levels, electrical connections, airflow measurements, and thermostat calibration.

We check things other contractors skip:
- Ductwork for leaks and restrictions
- Electrical connections for wear
- Condenser coil condition
- Refrigerant charge levels

This comprehensive approach means we catch problems before they become emergencies. You get the full picture, not just a quick patch.

3 Clear Options

We present findings on the spot with three repair options at different price points.

Learn More

After diagnosis, your technician presents three options on a tablet:

**Option 1:** Essential repair to restore function
**Option 2:** Recommended repair plus preventive work

**Option 3:** Comprehensive solution for long-term reliability

Each option shows exact pricing—flat rate, no hourly surprises. You choose what fits your budget and situation. No pressure, no upselling tactics.

Same-Day Repair

Our trucks carry common parts. Most repairs are completed the same visit.

Learn More

Our service vehicles are stocked with the parts that fail most often: capacitors, contactors, fan motors, and refrigerant.

For standard repairs, we complete the work immediately. No waiting for parts. No scheduling a second visit. No extra trip charges.

For complex repairs requiring special-order components, we expedite through our local warehouse and schedule installation within 24-48 hours.

4

Verification & Cleanup

We test the system, verify proper operation, and leave your home exactly as we found it.

Learn More

Before we leave, we run your system through a complete operation cycle. We measure temperature drop at the vents to confirm proper cooling performance.

Then we clean up. Every tool gets packed. Every piece of packaging gets removed. We call it "white-glove cleanup"—your home looks exactly like it did before we arrived.

You get a detailed invoice showing exactly what was done, what parts were used, and your warranty information.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you charge extra for weekend or evening service calls?
No. Our "No Overtime" policy means you pay the same rate whether it's 2pm Tuesday or 2am Sunday. Your emergency shouldn't cost extra.
How do I know if my AC needs repair or replacement?
If your system is under 10 years old and the repair costs less than half a replacement, repair usually makes sense. Over 15 years with frequent repairs? Replacement is often more cost-effective. We'll give you honest recommendations based on your specific situation.
How quickly can you come out for AC repair?
We offer same-day and next-day service for most calls. For emergencies, our 24-hour answering service dispatches technicians around the clock—with no overtime charges.
Why is my AC running but not cooling?
Common causes include low refrigerant from a leak, a failed capacitor, a frozen evaporator coil, or a faulty compressor. Our diagnostic identifies the exact issue so you're not paying for guesswork.
