Our NATE-certified technicians have the specialized training, tools, and experience to safely and effectively diagnose and repair all types of air conditioning issues, ensuring your system runs efficiently and safely.

Q: Should I repair or replace my AC?

The decision to repair or replace your AC depends on its age, repair cost, and current efficiency. Generally, if your AC is over 10-15 years old or the repair cost is more than 50% of the cost of a new unit, replacement is often the more cost-effective choice. Newer units are significantly more energy-efficient and reliable, offering long-term savings. Our technicians can provide an honest assessment to help you make the best decision for your home.

Q: How long does it take to repair an AC?

The time it takes to repair an air conditioner varies depending on the issue. Many common AC repairs can be completed within 1 to 4 hours once our technician has diagnosed the problem and has the necessary parts. More complex issues, such as a major component replacement, might take longer, especially if a specific part needs to be ordered. Our goal is always to complete repairs efficiently and effectively.

Q: Does home insurance cover AC repair?

Home insurance typically does NOT cover AC repairs that result from normal wear and tear, lack of maintenance, or old age. However, your policy might cover repairs or replacement if the damage is caused by a sudden and accidental event, like a fire, lightning strike, or a covered peril. It is crucial to check your specific policy and contact your provider to understand your coverage.

Signs You Need AC Repair

Your air conditioner often gives warning signs before it completely stops working. Paying attention to these indicators can help you call for repair early, preventing more extensive damage and ensuring continuous comfort in your St. Louis home:

Blowing Warm Air: This is the most obvious sign. If your AC is running but the air coming from your vents isn’t cool, it’s not working correctly.
Weak Airflow: Reduced air coming from your vents can indicate a problem with the blower, a clogged filter, or issues within your ductwork.
Strange Noises: Listen for grinding, squealing, buzzing, clanking, or rattling sounds. These often point to a failing motor, loose parts, or issues with your compressor.
Unusual Odors: Musty smells could indicate mold or mildew in your unit or ductwork, while a burning odor might signal an electrical problem.
Frequent Cycling (Short Cycling): If your AC unit turns on and off too frequently in short bursts, it’s working inefficiently and putting undue stress on components, which can lead to premature failure.
High Humidity Indoors: Beyond cooling, your AC unit also dehumidifies. If your home feels muggy despite the AC running, it might need repair.
Leaking Water Around Unit: Puddles near your indoor unit can indicate a clogged condensate drain line or other drainage issues, potentially leading to water damage.
Rising Energy Bills: An unexplained spike in your electricity costs, without a change in usage, suggests your AC unit is losing efficiency and struggling to cool your home.

If you observe any of these signs, contact Meyer Heating & Air promptly. Our St. Louis technicians can diagnose the problem and provide a reliable solution.

Common AC Repair Issues We Address

Our Meyer Heating & Air technicians frequently address a range of air conditioning problems in St. Louis homes. Some of the most common issues we repair include:

Refrigerant Leaks: Low refrigerant (Freon) is often caused by a leak, leading to insufficient cooling.
Faulty Capacitors: These electrical components provide the “jolt” needed to start motors; a bad capacitor can prevent the AC from turning on or cause it to short cycle.
Clogged Condensate Drains: Algae or debris can block the drain line, leading to water leaks and potential system shutdown.
Frozen Evaporator Coils: Insufficient airflow, low refrigerant, or a dirty filter can cause the indoor coil to freeze, stopping cooling.
Blower Motor Issues: Problems with the indoor fan motor can reduce or stop airflow from your vents.
Compressor Problems: The compressor is the heart of your AC. Issues here can lead to no cooling, strange noises, or total system failure.
Electrical Control Issues: Faulty wiring, relays, or circuit breakers can disrupt power to your unit.
Thermostat Malfunctions: An uncalibrated or broken thermostat can send incorrect signals to your AC, or no signals at all.
Fan Problems (Indoor/Outdoor): A faulty fan motor or bent blades can affect airflow and system efficiency.

Generally, home insurance typically does NOT cover AC repairs that result from normal wear and tear, lack of maintenance, or old age. However, your policy might cover repairs or replacement if the damage is caused by a sudden and accidental event like a fire, lightning strike, or a covered peril (e.g., a burst pipe flooding the unit). It’s crucial to check your specific home insurance policy and contact your provider directly to understand your coverage. Regular AC maintenance is key to preventing common issues not covered by insurance.
