Frequently Asked Questions

Why is my Bessemer home's AC unit leaking refrigerant, and how can Armstrong Services fix it?

Refrigerant leaks are a common issue in our area, often due to corrosion on coils or vibrations loosening connections over time. This leak reduces cooling power and can damage your compressor. Our technicians use specialized electronic leak detectors to pinpoint the exact source. We then repair the leak, often by brazing the line with nitrogen to prevent internal corrosion, and recharge the system to the manufacturer's exact specifications, ensuring efficient and lasting performance for your home.

Can a plumbing inspection from Armstrong Services help prevent HVAC problems?

Absolutely. A thorough plumbing inspection checks your condensate drain line, which is crucial for your AC system. A clogged drain line, common in humid Alabama weather, can cause water damage and even shut down your AC unit. During our inspection, we clear any blockages and ensure proper drainage from both your HVAC system and plumbing fixtures. This proactive service helps your entire home's systems work together smoothly, preventing costly cross-system failures.

My outdoor AC unit looks corroded. Should I consider a full HVAC replacement, or can it be repaired?

We see a lot of outdoor condenser coil corrosion in Bessemer due to humidity and environmental factors. Our electric and HVAC inspection will determine the extent of the damage. If the corrosion is superficial, we can often clean and treat the coils. However, if it has compromised the coil's integrity or led to refrigerant leaks, a replacement might be more cost-effective for long-term reliability and efficiency. We provide honest, upfront assessments and offer both repair and high-efficiency installation options to fit your budget and needs.
