Frequently asked in Oakland

Why is my AC running but not cooling?

This often indicates a problem beyond just airflow, such as low refrigerant levels, a malfunctioning compressor, or a dirty evaporator coil that can't absorb heat effectively. A qualified pro in Oakland can inspect your system and pinpoint the exact reason why it's not cooling.

What does a typical AC repair cost?

What is the 3-minute rule for AC?

The 3-minute rule for AC systems means avoiding cycling the unit on and off too frequently within a short timeframe. This is crucial because the compressor needs time to stabilize oil pressure. Repeated starts and stops can cause damage. Experts can explain the importance of this rule for your system.

This rule applies to your entire heating and cooling system. Get a quote to compare repair costs with new system prices for your Oakland home.
