Air Conditioning Repair

The Ottawa cooling season is short. When the AC quits in July, we dispatch fast and carry common failure parts on the truck so the fix happens on the first visit.

Most AC failures are not catastrophic. A bad capacitor stops the compressor cold. A clogged drain line trips a float switch. A loose contactor lets the condenser run while the air handler does not. These are 30-minute fixes when you have the parts and the experience to know what to look for.

Where the diagnosis points to a failed compressor or a refrigerant leak in the evaporator coil, we lay out the math: repair cost vs replacement cost vs remaining lifespan. If the unit is past 10 years, installation is usually the more honest answer.

Phone-in availability for the Ottawa region during cooling season. The 24/7 line is open for AC emergencies when the unit quits during a heat advisory.
