People call this an AC not cooling or air conditioner blowing warm air. Same visit, same written quote, same technician.
What an AC Not Cooling Call Involves
We start where the symptom points. A technician confirms the thermostat is actually calling for cooling, then checks whether the indoor blower and the outdoor unit are both running. From there we measure temperature split across the coil, look at airflow, and check refrigerant pressures with gauges. Warm air has a short list of usual causes: restricted airflow, a failed capacitor or contactor, a frozen evaporator coil, low refrigerant from a leak, or a compressor that is no longer pumping. We tell you which one it is before we touch anything.
What We Check and Repair
Common repairs on this call include capacitors, contactors, blower motors, condenser fan motors, control boards and thermostats. We clean condenser coils that salt air and yard debris have packed solid, since a dirty coil cannot reject heat no matter how healthy the rest of the system is. We clear clogged condensate drains that have tripped a float switch and shut the system down. When refrigerant is low we find the leak first, repair or quote it, then charge the system. Guessing and topping off only buys a few weeks.
How We Decide Repair Is the Right Call
We look at what failed, what else is worn, and how the system has been performing. A capacitor or fan motor on an otherwise sound unit is a straightforward repair and you are cooling again the same visit. A leaking evaporator coil or a failing compressor on an older system is a bigger conversation, and we lay out both paths with what each one gets you. Humidity control matters here too. If the system runs constantly and the house still feels damp, sizing or ductwork may be part of the problem.

Why is my AC running constantly but not cooling the house?
Usually airflow or heat rejection. A clogged filter, an iced evaporator coil, or a condenser coil packed with debris will all keep the system running without cooling. Low refrigerant does the same thing.
Should I turn the system off while I wait?
Yes, switch it off. If the coil has frozen, running it longer can damage the compressor, and shutting down lets the ice melt so the technician can see what is actually happening.
Can ice on the lines cause warm air?
Ice on the refrigerant line or coil blocks airflow completely, so the vents blow warm. It points to restricted airflow or low refrigerant, both of which need a technician to diagnose properly.
How it works
- Step 1
Tell us the symptom
Call or fill in the quote form and describe what changed. Warm air, short cycling, a breaker that keeps tripping, water stains on the ceiling. That detail helps us bring the right parts.
- Step 2
We diagnose on site
A technician checks the thermostat, the electrical side, refrigerant performance, airflow and the condensate line. We find the actual cause instead of swapping parts and hoping the problem stays away.
- Step 3
You approve the repair
We explain what failed, what it takes to fix it, and how long the part is likely to last. Nothing gets replaced until you say go, and we test the system before leaving.

Why homeowners call us
- Built for the salt airCoastal Florida is hard on outdoor equipment. Coils corrode, contactors pit, fan motors seize early. We look for that damage during every air conditioning repair so a small failure does not take the whole system down.
- Condensate lines we actually clearBy late summer, drain lines clog with algae and shut systems off on the float switch. We clear the line, check the pan and the safety switch, and show you what caused the backup.
- Heating tooCold snaps still arrive. We do heating repair and heater repair on heat pumps, strip heat and furnace repair where homes have one, so the system works in January as well as August.
- Plain talk about older systemsIf a repair makes sense, we repair it. If a unit is failing in ways that will keep costing you, we say that too and lay out the options. You decide, not us.
