Frequently asked in Boston

Why is my AC running but not cooling?

This often means your system is running, but not effectively. Common culprits include a dirty air filter, low refrigerant levels, or a malfunctioning compressor. A licensed pro can diagnose the exact cause, whether it's in your Beacon Hill rowhouse or a larger building. They'll explain what's happening before any work begins.

What does a typical AC repair cost in Boston?

What is the 3 minute rule for AC?

The 3-minute rule suggests waiting three minutes before restarting your AC after it has shut off. This protects the compressor from damage, especially in older systems common in historic Boston neighborhoods. A technician can tell you if your unit follows this guideline and if it's contributing to any issues.

This applies whether you're in a condo in the South Loop or a single-family home. A quick call can help you get the information needed to make that decision.

This rule of thumb helps homeowners in Boston consider long-term value, especially when dealing with older systems in neighborhoods like Charlestown. Get a quote to see if your repair is approaching this threshold.
