HVAC Repair Deridder LA | Call Perkins Climate Control

This is a classic sign of an electrical capacitor failure, a very common issue in our area's heat and humidity. The capacitor helps start your outdoor unit's motor and compressor. When it fails, your system can't get going. Our technicians can quickly diagnose and replace a faulty capacitor to restore reliable operation and prevent further damage to your HVAC system.

Yes, a refrigerant leak is a likely cause, especially in older systems common around Deridder. Refrigerant is the substance that absorbs heat from your home. If it's low due to a leak, your AC will run constantly but won't cool effectively, driving up your energy bills. We perform a thorough leak detection service, repair the source, and recharge the system to the manufacturer's exact specifications for optimal efficiency and cooling power.

Our repair process is thorough and neighborly. For capacitor issues, we'll test the electrical components, safely discharge and replace the faulty capacitor, and verify your system starts and runs smoothly. For suspected leaks, we use electronic detectors and soap solutions to find the source, make the necessary repair (often a braze on the copper line), pressure-test the system, and then recharge it. We always explain what we find and what it will take to fix it before any work begins.
