Why LA ACs Fail

Heat waves and old ducts

🌡️

Heat Wave Failure

LA heat waves push older units to the breaking point. Capacitors fail and compressors overheat when it hits 100°F in the Valley.

OUR SOLUTION:

Emergency capacitor replacement, hard start kits

🏠

ADU Mini-Splits

Garage conversions and ADUs are booming in LA. Ductless mini-splits are the perfect cooling solution for these spaces.

OUR SOLUTION:

Mini-split installation, maintenance

🐀

Attic Ductwork

In LA attics, flex ducts often get crushed or chewed by rodents, leaking expensive cool air into the hot attic.

OUR SOLUTION:

Duct repair, replacement, sanitation

📱

Smart Thermostats

Californians love tech. We install Nest, Ecobee, and Honeywell smart thermostats to help you save on high energy bills.

OUR SOLUTION:

C-wire installation, Wi-Fi setup

Common Questions

Why is my AC running but not cooling?

This is often a bad capacitor or low refrigerant. In LA heat, capacitors swell and fail. We carry universal capacitors on our trucks to fix this in one visit.

Do you install mini-splits in ADUs?

Yes! We are mini-split experts. They are the most efficient way to cool a garage conversion or guest house without running expensive ductwork.

Can you install a Nest thermostat?

Yes. Older LA homes often lack the "C-wire" needed for smart thermostats. We can run a new wire or install an adapter kit to make your Nest or Ecobee work reliably.
