Air Conditioner Repair in Whitehall, MT

Every cooling complaint traces to the refrigerant circuit, the electrical system, or airflow. A house that will not cool feels the same to you whether the cause is a slow leak at a service valve, a contactor that no longer pulls in, or a filter so loaded that the evaporator has frozen.

We check all three in a set order, because doing them out of order leads to the classic mistake: adding refrigerant to a system that is actually starved of air.

We measure suction and liquid pressures, calculate superheat and subcooling, and compare against the equipment's design values under current conditions. That distinguishes a low charge from a restricted metering device, a plugged filter drier from a failing compressor.

When there is a leak we find it — electronic detection, bubbles, nitrogen pressure test where warranted — repair the joint, pull a real vacuum, and weigh the charge back in. Recovery and handling follow EPA requirements, and we tell you when a leak's location makes repair uneconomical.

Dual-run capacitors, contactors, condenser fan motors, blower motors and modules, transformers, low-voltage shorts from rodent damage, float switches doing their job on a plugged drain, and thermostats configured wrong after a replacement. These are the majority of no-cooling calls and most are same-visit repairs.

We also check amp draws against rating plates. A compressor pulling high amps with correct charge and a clean condenser tells a story worth knowing before you spend money on anything else.
