Most "blowing warm air" calls are one of three things: low refrigerant, a failed capacitor, or a frozen evaporator coil. All three are repairs, not replacements, and most run $180–$420. We'll tell you which one it is within 20 minutes of arriving, and you'll have the flat-rate quote before we open a single panel.

Standard service calls run $89 dispatch, applied to the repair if you move forward. Capacitor replacement: $180–$280. Refrigerant recharge (R-410A): $250–$450 depending on volume. Compressor repairs vary widely, which is why we quote in writing. Anyone giving you a phone-only estimate without seeing the system is guessing.

Two rules. One: if your system is under 10 years old and the repair is under $1,500, repair it. Two: if it's over 14 years old, uses R-22 refrigerant (phased out and expensive), and the repair is over $1,200, replacement usually pays itself back inside 4 summers from energy savings alone. We'll do the math with you on-site, not push you either way.

Yes. Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Goodman, Rheem, York, American Standard, Bryant, Mitsubishi mini-splits, and the off-brand units the discount installers put in 8 years ago. If it cools desert air, we've fixed it.

Call (760) 800-4384. Same number, 24 hours a day, 365 days. A real person picks up, not an answering service. If it's a genuine emergency (no cooling, indoor temp climbing past 85°, vulnerable family members), we dispatch. After-hours dispatch is $150 above standard rates and waived for maintenance plan members.
