What affects the price

Frequently asked in Reno
Why is my AC running but not cooling?
This is a common issue in Reno and can stem from several causes. A clogged air filter is an easy fix, but it could also be low refrigerant, a faulty fan motor, or even a problem with your thermostat. The pros can quickly pinpoint the exact reason your system isn't delivering cool air and provide a solution.
What does a typical AC repair cost?
What is the 3-minute rule for AC?
The 3-minute rule for AC systems is a maintenance tip to prevent compressor damage. It advises waiting at least three minutes after turning your AC off before turning it back on. This allows the system's pressure to equalize, preventing a hard start that can stress the compressor. It's a good practice for your Reno home.
This rule applies to your entire HVAC system, not just the AC. If the cost to repair your heating or cooling system gets close to half the price of a brand-new system, it’s often a better financial decision to replace it. This helps you make a smart investment for your Reno property.
