When to Call for Cooling Repairs

Air conditioning issues usually start small but get worse quickly. Look out for:

Warm Air from Vents

If your AC is running but only blowing warm air, it may be a refrigerant issue, compressor problem, or airflow restriction.

Weak Airflow

Poor airflow often comes from blocked ducts, a failing blower motor, or dirty filters.

Unusual Noises or Odors

Grinding, buzzing, or musty smells can signal electrical problems, worn-out parts, or mold in the system.

Frequent Breakdowns

An older AC that needs constant repairs may be nearing the end of its lifespan and could be more cost-effective to replace.

Addressing these early often means a quicker, less costly repair and a cooler home.

Do You Need to Repair or Replace Your AC?

Not sure if your system needs a repair or a full replacement? Consider these factors:

  • Age: Most air conditioners last 10–15 years. Older systems often cost more to keep running.
  • Condition: Frequent breakdowns or major part failures are a sign replacement is coming.
  • Cost: If a repair bill is close to half the price of a new unit, AC replacement may be smarter.

We’ll help you weigh both options so you can make the best choice for your home.

Questions & Answers About Cooling Services

How often should I service my air conditioner?

AC systems should be serviced once a year, ideally in the spring before the summer heat kicks in. A professional tune-up includes checking refrigerant levels, cleaning coils, inspecting electrical parts, and testing airflow. Regular AC maintenance helps prevent breakdowns, lowers energy bills, and extends the life of your system.

How long does an AC installation take?

Most central AC installations are completed in a single day. If ductwork needs to be added or replaced, the project may take longer. Before starting, we provide a clear timeline so you know exactly what to expect. Proper AC installation ensures your system runs efficiently from day one.

Is ductless AC a good option for New Hampshire homes?

Yes. Ductless mini-splits are energy-efficient, flexible, and great for homes without existing ductwork. They work well for additions, basements, and rooms that are difficult to cool. Many homeowners choose them for zoned comfort to cool only the rooms they use most while lowering energy costs.

How do I know if I need AC replacement?

It may be time for AC replacement if your unit is 10–15 years old, needs frequent repairs, or isn’t cooling evenly. Other signs include rising energy bills or your system using outdated refrigerant (R-22). Replacing an old unit improves efficiency, reduces repair costs, and delivers more consistent comfort.

How much does AC repair cost in NH?
The price depends on the issue and the type of system you have. Minor fixes, like replacing a capacitor or thermostat, are usually inexpensive, while major repairs such as compressor or coil replacement cost more.
What’s the average lifespan of an AC unit?
Most central air conditioners last about 10–15 years with proper maintenance. Ductless AC systems can last even longer if serviced regularly. If your unit is nearing that age, needing frequent repairs, or costing more to run, it may be time to consider AC replacement for improved comfort and efficiency.
