AC repair and troubleshooting

We diagnose systems that do not start, provide weak cooling, freeze, leak water, cycle frequently or make unusual noise. Checks may include controls, airflow, filters, indoor and outdoor coils, condensate drainage, electrical components and refrigeration operation.

Choosing between central AC, ductless and a heat pump

The right option depends on the existing furnace and ductwork, which rooms need cooling, electrical capacity, available outdoor space and whether efficient heating is also wanted. A heat pump can provide both heating and cooling, while a conventional AC system focuses on cooling. Ductless equipment can be useful where ductwork is unavailable or room-by-room control is preferred.

Richmond property considerations

For strata and townhouse projects, outdoor placement, line routing, drainage, appearance and approval requirements may affect the design. Richmond’s detached homes also vary widely in duct layout and return-air capacity, so equipment should not be selected from floor area alone.

Frequently asked questions

Do you install ductless AC in Richmond?

Yes. We install single-zone and multi-zone ductless systems after confirming indoor-unit locations, outdoor placement, line routing, drainage and electrical requirements.
