AC Repair

Fast, honest AC repair for every system type and brand—done right the first time.

If your air conditioner isn’t keeping up, running constantly, or making strange noises, you don’t need guesswork—you need real answers. At BPM Heating, Cooling & Plumbing, we specialize in diagnosing and repairing all types of air conditioning systems, from central air to ductless mini-splits. Whether it’s a minor electrical fault or a major mechanical failure, we’ll find the problem and fix it fast.

We service all brands, including Trane, Goodman, Lennox, Bryant, Rheem, Ruud, York, American Standard, Carrier, and many others. Our technicians are equipped to handle any residential AC issue—no matter the age, setup, or layout of your home.

Signs You Need Air Conditioning Repair

Not all AC problems are obvious. If your system shows any of the following signs, it’s time to call for professional repair:

  • Warm air blowing from vents – Could indicate low refrigerant, compressor failure, or thermostat issues.
  • Uneven cooling or weak airflow – May be caused by a clogged air filter, duct leaks, or blower problems.
  • Frequent cycling – Short cycling wastes energy and often points to electrical or thermostat malfunctions.
  • Strange noises or vibrations – Grinding, buzzing, or banging sounds may signal loose parts or motor failure.
  • High humidity indoors – An AC that runs but doesn’t dehumidify properly could have a drainage or coil issue.
  • Unusually high energy bills – A sudden spike in utility costs may mean your system is struggling to operate efficiently.

Any of these symptoms can get worse if ignored. Prompt repair protects your system and restores comfort faster.

Common Air Conditioner Problems We Repair

These are some of the most frequent issues we see during service calls:

  • Refrigerant Leaks – Low refrigerant levels cause poor cooling and frozen coils. We locate and repair leaks before recharging the system.
  • Frozen Evaporator Coil – Often caused by airflow restrictions or low refrigerant. This reduces system performance or causes shutdowns.
  • Electrical Failures – Faulty capacitors, relays, or contactors can prevent the system from turning on or completing a cycle.
  • Thermostat Malfunctions – Improper signals or dead batteries can cause erratic operation or prevent cooling altogether.
  • Compressor or Fan Motor Issues – Loud noises, short cycling, or system failure may stem from worn-out motors or locked compressors.

Without regular, scheduled maintenance, these problems can and more can occur.

How We Diagnose AC Issues

When we arrive for a repair call, we don’t just look for obvious signs—we follow a step-by-step diagnostic process:

  1. Thermostat Test – We verify that your thermostat is functioning properly and communicating with the system.
  2. System Operation Check – We run the AC to identify symptoms like short cycling, weak airflow, or warm air.
  3. Component Inspection – We test capacitors, contactors, motors, coils, and refrigerant levels using professional-grade tools.
  4. Root Cause Analysis – We explain what caused the issue—not just the symptom—so you understand how to prevent it in the future.

We never recommend unnecessary parts or replacements. You’ll get clear pricing, expert insight, and repair options you can trust.

We can also help you decide whether it’s worth it to install a new unit or repair your current one, based on system lifespan, cost considerations of repair, and even more diagnostic factors.

Frequently Asked Questions

Whether you’re dealing with an unexpected breakdown, planning a new installation, or just trying to stay ahead of seasonal maintenance, it’s normal to have a few questions. Below, we’ve answered some of the most common ones our customers ask — to help you feel more confident about your system.

What’s the most common AC repair problem?

Low refrigerant is one of the most frequent issues, often caused by a leak. It leads to poor cooling performance and can damage your compressor if ignored. Electrical component failures—like capacitors and contactors—are also very common and relatively easy to fix.

That depends on the age, condition, and cost of the repair. We usually recommend repair if your system is less than 10 years old and the fix is under 25% of the cost of replacement. We’ll always explain your options clearly before you decide.

We offer same-day AC repair service in most cases—especially during heat waves or emergency situations. Call early in the day and we’ll do everything we can to get a technician to your home ASAP.
