Common Air Conditioning Problems

Our experienced technicians can take on any AC issue they find in a Hamilton County home. Some of the more common problems we see and fix include:

  • Insufficient Cooling or Uneven Temperatures: If your AC is blowing warm air or not cooling your home evenly, possible reasons include a dirty filter, duct blockage, low refrigerant level, or overheated compressor.
  • Frequent Cycling On and Off: This is called short cycling, which can damage the compressor. It can be caused by a clogged filter, an improperly set thermostat, or an oversized air conditioner.
  • Airflow Issues and Poor Ventilation: A blower fan or a ductwork issue can restrict airflow and limit the amount of ventilation available for your AC to do its job. It also increases the risk of needing air conditioner repair in Cincinnati.
  • Strange Noises or Odors: Loud squealing sounds usually come from a worn belt, while grinding often originates from bad motor bearings. If your AC is noisier than normal, vibrating, or smells musty or like it’s burning, call for help right away.
  • High Energy Bills: A spike in your electric bill can mean your AC is strained and overworking. Our technicians will find the reason your air conditioner is struggling.

If you experience any of these issues, call Wingate for an expert diagnosis. We will provide a custom solution that fixes the problem at its source.

Questions About Air Conditioning Repair

How Much Does AC Repair Cost?

The cost of repair depends on the type, size, and scope of the problem. A small AC repair such as replacing a capacitor, unclogging a drain line, or fixing a blower motor costs less than repairing a refrigerant line or replacing a compressor. How long a repair takes is also a factor, as you’ll also pay for labor.

How Many Hours Does It Take to Fix an AC Unit?

Small repairs may take just a few hours. If resolving an issue requires just unclogging a drain line or cleaning debris, it may take under an hour. But a repair that involves disassembling components or waiting for parts to arrive can take days or weeks.

Should I Repair My AC or Replace It?

If your AC is just a few years old and needs its first repair, fixing it can add years to its life. A unit that’s 10 to 15 years old can be repaired. However, replacement may be suggested if a repair costs more than half the price of a new unit, you’ve had several repairs recently, or your energy bills are going up.

Importance of Regular AC System Maintenance

We strongly believe in helping you avoid or reduce the need for air conditioning repair in Cincinnati. Preventative maintenance helps your AC run more efficiently, avoids major repairs, and can help your HVAC equipment last longer. Therefore, it results in long-term savings. Some of the most effective types of maintenance include:

  • Scheduled Tune-Ups and Inspections: A spring tune-up and inspection ensure your AC is ready for summer and can resolve issues that increase wear and the risk of a breakdown. The process includes checking connections, lubricating moving parts, and testing refrigerant levels (and providing a recharge if necessary).
  • Air Filter Replacement and Cleaning: A fresh air filter captures dust and small particles. It allows optimal airflow so your AC can work at maximum cooling capacity. Otherwise, frozen coils, jammed motors, and AC breakdowns can occur.
  • Coil and Condenser Cleaning: Cleaning the condenser coil ensures heat can be released outside and the AC can cool your home efficiently. Clearing debris from inside and around the condenser unit also helps avoid problems.

Wingate offers preventative maintenance programs that include complete tune-ups by certified technicians. Our monthly Wingate Home Protection Plan includes two seasonal HVAC system checkups, priority service, a 2-year parts and labor warranty, and a discount on repairs. We also waive overtime costs (including weekends and holidays) for members.

We had a great experience getting a routine inspection of our furnace and troubleshooting a problem with short cycling. Robby was super professional and thorough, provided detailed information, didn't try to upsell anything, and worked quickly and efficiently. Best part - my dog was so excited to see him! We're excited to continue with Wingate for routine maintenance for our heating, cooling, and plumbing needs.

I've done business with them twice. 1 for my ac unit and the other when my heat stopped working when the temp was almost 0°. They were not only fast to respond and professional but they diagnosed the problem and laid out my options simply and effectively. Turned out I needed the heater replaced. Mike and the team came out the next day to replace it days before the temperature fell below zero. Super grateful for this company and the professionalism they provided. Top notch customer service. 10/10 would recommend.

This is our second time dealing with Wingate. I called to have a furnace inspection (my furnace was over 17 years old) and was shown evidence of a faulty furnace. We were given many options to either repair or replace it, and we decided to replace the furnace. I was pleasantly surprised when Wingate was able to handle the replacement the next day. The installation team showed up on time and completed the job in a very timely manner. Our whole experience from first call to job completion went very well. I highly recommend Wingate for ant HVAC needs.

The moment I spoke with the receptionist I knew I wanted to work with Wingate. The woman was kind and compassionate. She was encouraging that their team would take great care of us and that's exactly what they did. The communication from the entire team was excellent. I appreciated the text I received before every technician arrived and the fact that it had their photo so I knew who was on their way. Ty was the first technician that we worked with and he was wonderful. He walked us through step by step on his process and what to expect from him while he was at our home. The sales rep Michael was informative and he did not feel salesy or push to make the sale. He answered every question that we had about the equipment and the financial aspect as well. My family and I appreciate your team on their kindness, respectfulness and your professionalism. We will continue to recommend your company.

Wingate was quick to arrive even on the holiday weekend when our heat went out during a cold snap. Our service tech, Ty, was so kind and took the time to explain everything that was going on, and went above and beyond his duty to make additional calls for us to try and get our system replaced faster. I would definitely trust them should we need to call again! Thanks Ty!

Great experience from the Salesman to installation. The salesman explained everything in detail. Financing was easy. Techs did a great job. Very clean, organized. Went through the complete system with me then again with my husband. Not rushed at all. Overall a great experience from start to finish.

We contacted Wingate for a free roof inspection after we found shingles in our yard following a storm. Emily left us with a great first impression and had Lonny come out to conduct a thorough inspection. Lonny was extremely thorough and ensured nothing was overlooked. He identified several issues with our roof and guided us through the eventual insurance process, making the experience much less stressful with his knowledge and experience. Ultimately our roof has been replaced and looks great!We highly recommend Lonny and Wingate for your roofing needs. He was incredibly easy to work with and always quick to respond to our questions and concerns.If you have concerns about your roof then give Wingate a call!
