Frequently asked in Durham

Why is my AC running but not cooling?

This indicates your AC unit is functioning but not producing cool air. Common causes include low refrigerant levels, a dirty air filter, or a malfunctioning compressor. A licensed pro can accurately diagnose the problem. They will perform the necessary checks to restore your system's cooling capacity.

What is the 3 minute rule for AC?

The 3-minute rule is a built-in safety delay for your AC's compressor. It prevents the compressor from starting too frequently, which can lead to expensive damage. Always wait at least three minutes after shutting down your AC before restarting it. A technician can confirm your system respects this vital rule.

What is the $5000 AC rule?

If a repair cost exceeds roughly half the price of a new AC unit, replacement is often the more sensible option. This helps homeowners avoid sinking money into an aging system. A specialist can help you weigh repair estimates against new system costs in Durham.

What does a typical AC repair cost?

The cost of a typical AC repair in Durham varies significantly. Minor issues, like a thermostat problem or a clogged drain line, are generally more affordable. Larger repairs, such as replacing a compressor or addressing refrigerant leaks, will be more expensive. The specific problem and parts needed dictate the price. A free quote offers clarity.

What is the $5000 rule for HVAC?

It suggests that if a repair costs about half as much as a new system, it's time to consider replacement. This rule helps homeowners make cost-effective decisions regarding older HVAC equipment. A technician can help you evaluate your specific situation.

How much does an average HVAC job cost?

An average HVAC job cost in Durham depends heavily on the service performed. A simple maintenance visit is far less than a complete system overhaul. The complexity of the job, the type of equipment involved, and the labor required all factor into the final price. Obtaining a specific quote is the best way to determine your cost.
