Complete AC Services for Your Home
Our team encourages area homeowners to schedule seasonal HVAC maintenance. The best time to book your appointment is early in the spring before the heavy heat arrives. Many warranties even require annual professional maintenance checks. Furthermore, a tune-up will lower your cooling costs and prevent repairs. Routine maintenance will also help extend the life of your system.
Even with regular maintenance, you should monitor for performance issues throughout the summer. Contact us for an AC repair at the first signs of an issue. A fast response will save you money and inconvenience by preventing any problem from worsening. If your problematic AC is getting older, it may be time for a new AC installation instead. Modern AC systems use less electricity, and there are often incentives available to make budgeting easier.

Air Conditioning Repair and Replacement
Often, a high electric bill is the first sign you need an air conditioner repair and perhaps a replacement. Modern ACs are highly efficient, but malfunctions can cause them to use a lot more energy. That’s why we recommend tracking your electricity use both monthly and annually.
Cooling problems can manifest in other ways as well. A typical AC cycle is 10-15 minutes and should occur 2-3 times an hour. Shorter or longer cycling often suggests a serious problem. Watch for uneven cooling, including warm spots and temperature differences between floors.
You shouldn’t hear noises, such as grinding or screeching. Loud noises outside can indicate a problem with the compressor pump. Don’t ignore unpleasant smells, either. Those include mustiness, which may suggest microbial growth, and fishy smells, which may indicate wires burning.
If you notice anything that seems off, schedule a diagnostic appointment with us. Using the most advanced equipment available, we’ll perform a multipoint inspection. We’ll then provide you with honest recommendations and help you explore the options that make sense for your home and budget.
When Should You Get a New AC Installation?
If it’s time for a new AC installation in Easley, SC or Athens, GA, it can be an exciting opportunity. While it may cost more now, it can actually save you money in the years ahead. Accurate sizing for your home is critical, and we’ll perform a precise load calculation. From there, you’ll know the cooling output you need and can explore the options available in that space.
Our team will guide you through every step of the process. That includes exploring SEER2 ratings and the various incentives that may be available. Choosing the ideal AC often comes down to the right balance between long-term savings and added initial costs. We can also help you explore advanced features, including a smart thermostat and even onboard smart technologies.

Air Conditioning FAQs
If you’re considering AC replacement or need repairs or other services, you may have questions. Let’s explore answers to two of the most common ones.
How do I know if I need to repair or replace my AC unit?
We can provide you with a professional recommendation, which will often come down to the system’s age and repair cost.
If an AC is older than 15 years, it’s typically better to replace it than repair it. In general, a repair that costs 50% or more than the cost of a replacement isn’t worth it unless there’s active warranty coverage. We’ll also advise a replacement of an inefficient system that’s costing you a lot to run.
What size air conditioner is right for my home?
The rule of thumb is you need 20 BTUs of cooling per square foot, and 1 ton provides 12,000 BTUs. That said, accurate sizing is crucial, and we don’t recommend using guidelines. Instead, we’ll perform a load calculation. It will account for your floor plan, square footage, ceiling heights, building envelope, and other factors.
