JR Home Services HVAC - Chesapeake's Professional HVAC Repair

This is a very common issue during our hot, humid summers. Often, it's due to a refrigerant leak, a frozen evaporator coil from restricted airflow (like a clogged filter), or a failing compressor. Our technicians start with a comprehensive diagnostic to pinpoint the exact cause, whether it's a simple fix like clearing a drain line or a more involved repair, to get your cool air flowing again efficiently.

We recommend checking your filter monthly and changing it at least every 1-3 months. In our area, high pollen counts, humidity, and dust can clog filters faster. A dirty filter restricts airflow, forcing your system to work harder. This not only reduces cooling power and increases your energy bills but can also lead to frozen coils and premature system failure. Regular filter changes are the easiest way to maintain efficiency and prevent costly repairs.

Our preventative maintenance tune-up is designed to catch small problems before they become big ones, especially before summer hits. We thoroughly clean the condenser and evaporator coils, check refrigerant levels, calibrate your thermostat, inspect electrical connections, lubricate moving parts, and clear the drain line. This service ensures your system cools effectively, improves energy efficiency, and extends the lifespan of your unit, giving you peace of mind all season.
