AC repair, replacement, and ductless systems for humid Ohio summers — fixed right the first time, at a price you approve before we start.
What cooling work do you handle?
Repairs, replacements and seasonal tune-ups, all priced before we start.
What fixes hot upstairs and cold downstairs?
Rarely a bigger condenser. In Springboro's larger two-story housing the complaint comes from stack effect and duct balance rather than capacity, and oversizing makes it worse by short cycling and removing less humidity. Zoning, damper adjustment and return placement address it directly, and a survey of the existing ductwork decides which combination applies.
Does a higher SEER2 rating pay for itself?
It depends how long you are staying and how much you actually run it. In this climate the cooling season is real but not year-round, so the payback period on the top efficiency tier is longer than the brochure maths suggests. The tier worth paying for is usually the one that also brings a two-stage or variable-speed compressor, because that changes comfort as well as the bill: longer, gentler run times hold humidity down and even out the temperature between rooms in a way a single-stage unit cannot.
My air handler is in the attic. Does that change anything?
It changes what a small problem costs you. An attic unit sits above finished ceilings, so a blocked condensate drain that would be a wet floor in a basement becomes a ceiling repair instead. Attics also run far hotter than the rest of the house, so duct leakage up there loses cooled air into the worst possible place and the insulation on those ducts matters more than it would elsewhere. Worth confirming there is a secondary drain pan with its own float switch under the unit, because that is the thing standing between a clog and your ceiling.
There is water on the floor near the indoor unit.
Almost always the condensate drain. Cooling pulls moisture out of the air and that water has to go somewhere, usually down a small PVC line to a floor drain or a pump. Algae builds up in that line over a season and blocks it, the pan overflows, and you find it as a wet patch or a ceiling stain if the unit is upstairs. Many systems have a float switch that shuts the cooling off rather than let the pan overflow, so an air conditioner that has stopped for no obvious reason in humid weather is worth checking there first.
The outdoor unit is making a noise it did not make before.
The noise usually names the part. A hard electrical hum with the fan not turning points at a capacitor. A metallic screech on startup points at the compressor. A rattle that changes with fan speed is often a loose panel or debris in the cabinet, which is the one worth checking yourself with the power off. A hiss or a bubbling is refrigerant. What they have in common is that none of them improves on its own, and a capacitor caught early is a small repair while a compressor is a system decision.
