HVAC Repair Lavallette NJ | Call Doug Gahm Plumbing Heating & Air Conditioning

A thorough plumbing inspection by our team checks the condensate drain lines connected to your air conditioner. In our humid coastal climate, these lines are prone to clogs from algae, which can cause water damage and force your HVAC system to shut down. Identifying and clearing this during an inspection prevents unexpected breakdowns and protects your home.

Yes, due to salt air and typical shore humidity, dirty evaporator coils are a frequent cause of poor cooling in Lavallette. A dirty coil can't absorb heat efficiently, making your system work harder. During a service visit, we safely clean the coil, check refrigerant levels, and restore your unit's efficiency and cooling power.

Signs include warm air from vents, ice on refrigerant lines, hissing sounds, and higher energy bills. Refrigerant leaks reduce cooling capacity and strain the compressor, leading to costly repairs. We locate the leak, repair it, and recharge the system to the manufacturer's specification, ensuring safe, efficient operation for our shore summers.
