Wilmington AC Repair Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to diagnose a broken AC?
We charge a flat-rate diagnostic fee to accurately troubleshoot your system. Once the exact issue is found, we give you upfront repair options so you know the exact cost before any work begins.
Should I repair or replace my air conditioner?
If your AC is less than 10 years old and the repair is minor, fixing it is usually the best choice. However, if your system uses outdated R-22 refrigerant, requires a major compressor replacement, or is over 12 years old, upgrading to a high-efficiency system is likely the smarter financial investment.
Why is my AC running constantly but not cooling the house?
This often points to a clogged air filter, low refrigerant, or a dirty outdoor condenser coil. In coastal areas like Wilmington, salt and debris can quickly clog coils and drastically reduce your system’s efficiency.
What happens if water is leaking around my indoor AC unit?
A water leak is almost always caused by a clogged condensate drain line. Turn off your system immediately at the thermostat to prevent water damage to your ceiling or floors, and call our team to clear the line.
Do you offer emergency AC repair?
Yes! We have technicians available 365 days a year from 6 am to 9 pm to handle emergency breakdowns during the worst of the summer heat.
