Rick's Heating & Air Conditioning - Wright City's Emergency HVAC Services

That humming sound often indicates a failed outdoor fan motor, a common issue in our area due to wear and tear. This prevents your system from expelling heat, causing it to overheat and shut down. Yes, Rick's can absolutely fix it. Our technicians will diagnose the exact cause—whether it's the motor itself, a capacitor, or wiring—and perform a precise repair or replacement to get your cooling system running safely and efficiently again.

Short cycling is when your HVAC system turns on and off too frequently, failing to complete a full heating or cooling cycle. In our climate, this is often caused by issues like a dirty air filter, incorrect thermostat placement, or a malfunctioning component. It wastes energy and puts extra strain on your system. Rick's can perform a thorough HVAC system inspection to pinpoint the root cause, whether it's a simple fix or a more complex repair, to restore proper operation and lower your energy bills.

While they are separate systems, plumbing and heating are interconnected. A failing hot water recirculation pump can cause inconsistent water temperatures and strain your water heater, which may share ventilation or space with your furnace. For homes with combination systems or tankless heaters, this is especially relevant. Rick's expertise in both plumbing and HVAC allows us to holistically inspect and repair such issues, ensuring your home's comfort systems work together seamlessly and reliably.
