Do you repair split-system AC?

Mechanical / refrigerant repair on split systems we refer to an HVAC contractor — that work requires EPA 608 certification. But we DO clean split systems (see /ac-cleaning) and that's a separate service.

What if it's a freon leak?

If you smell chemical / freon, or see oily residue near the coils, we'll refer you to our EPA 608 certified partner. We don't touch refrigerant — Federal law. The good news: most 'not cooling' calls aren't sealed-system, they're cleanable or repairable on the spot.

We diagnose on-site first, then order the exact part the same day from local NYC distributors (capacitors, fan motors, control boards — all available next-day). You pay only for parts we actually install. No extra trip charge for the return install visit.

Yes, in most cases. Call before 2pm and we'll have a technician at your door the same day in Brooklyn, Queens (Astoria, LIC, Sunnyside), and Manhattan below 110th.

What's the diagnostic?

$80-$100 (lower end for window AC, higher for wall-mount) — fully credited toward the repair if you decide to proceed. Honest no-fix verdicts get a refund of the diagnostic.

What we don't fix

Refrigerant (Freon) sealed-system issues

Federal law requires EPA 608 certification to touch sealed-system refrigerant lines. If your AC shows one of these signs, we refer you to our certified partner:

· Chemical / freon / refrigerant smell
· Visible oily residue near coils or compressor

Symptoms that soundsealed-system but usually aren't — we fix these regularly:

· Not cooling — dirty coils, capacitor, thermostat, fan motor
· Leaking water — usually clogged drain or tilted install
· Weak airflow — filter, fan blade, motor

When in doubt — book a diagnostic. If we find true sealed-system damage we'll hand off without charging the diagnostic.
