How the Repair Process Works in Lafayette
When you schedule a service call in Lafayette, a technician arrives with diagnostic tools to identify what is causing the system to underperform. This includes testing the compressor, checking electrical connections, inspecting the evaporator coil, and measuring airflow through the vents. Once the issue is identified, the technician explains what needs to be repaired or replaced and provides options based on the age and condition of your unit.
After the repair is completed, you will notice that the system cools the home evenly again, the thermostat responds correctly, and the unit runs without excessive noise or cycling. Indoor humidity levels also return to normal, which makes the air feel more comfortable even when the temperature is set a few degrees higher.
Maintenance plans are also available for homeowners who want to prevent breakdowns before they happen. These plans typically include seasonal tune-ups, filter replacements, and priority scheduling during peak cooling season. The service does not cover ductwork modifications or whole-system replacements, but those options can be discussed if the unit is beyond repair.
Questions homeowners in Lafayette often ask
Before booking a service call, homeowners in Lafayette typically want to know what the appointment involves, how long repairs take, and whether their system can be fixed or needs to be replaced.
What types of air conditioning systems can you repair?
The team repairs most makes and models, including central air systems, heat pumps, and ductless mini-splits. As a Ruud Pro Partner, they have specialized training and access to parts for Ruud units.
How long does a typical repair take?
Most repairs are completed in one visit and take between one and three hours depending on the issue. If a part needs to be ordered, the technician will explain the timeline and schedule a follow-up appointment.
What happens during a tune-up?
A tune-up includes cleaning the condenser coils, checking refrigerant levels, testing the thermostat, inspecting electrical connections, and replacing the air filter. This helps the system run more efficiently and reduces the chance of a breakdown during summer.
Why is my air conditioner freezing up?
Frozen coils are usually caused by low refrigerant, restricted airflow from a dirty filter, or a failing blower motor. The technician will identify the root cause and make the necessary repairs.
When should I consider replacing the system instead of repairing it?
If your unit is over fifteen years old, requires frequent repairs, or uses an outdated refrigerant type, replacement may be more cost-effective. The technician will walk you through the options based on your situation.
