The AC compressor unit is 7 years old.  Blown the capacitor about 3 yrs ago.  I think the severe weather (T-storm) caused a power surge.  Last year was the relay.  This yr is the cap again.  I think T-storm cause the thing to overload as well as the heat since the unit was installed on the sunny side of the house.  Allen was the tech and Ed the owner came out to deliver a part.  I asked Allen to check the core just in case and he gladly did it.  Then we found the cap was blown outside and replaced the cap.  A kick starter cap was suggested to me, however I turn down the offer since I don't want to have good money chase after bad since the new cap seems to be able to start it after wired correctly (first try did not and some rewiring was needed).  Ed also suggested the compressor may be drawing too much current and blown the cap.  The compressor was always hard to start and have recoiling noise from day one.  I could imagine that could very well be the case under a heavy load such as a surge in T-storm condition.  I will turn off the HAC next time around when weather is approaching and also keep an eye on how long this cap will last.  Ed did mentioned about installing a new compressor unit, even though I agree with him and the current unit is only builder graded.  It will not be environmental friendly if I prematurely replace the unit since the old one has to go to some landfilled.  My decision was to continue monitor and use it till it really died and then replace it was a very good one.  All and all they are here before I got home and Allen waited and made some setup outside.  I'll say they are good.  You do however have to think about their recommendation and see if it agree with your own plan or not.

The technician quickly diagnoised the problme was with an electronic board. The board cost approximately $300. Due to the 8 year age of the unit, the technician had to obtain the part. The technician checked to see if the AC was still under warranty, it wasn't. The technician returned the next day and replaced the board. Prior to leaving, the technician checked the outside condenser had completely deteriorated. The technician gave me two options: new unit or do nothing, He did not attempt to sell me anything, but simply told me the advantages and disadvantages of each choice. I opted to replace the condenser. The technician arrived on time and installed the new condenser. I am very happy with his work and the installation.

very good service

I called AIr novation's because my heat stopped working. I was able to have Edwin the owner, schedule an appointment that day for a time that was convenient to me. I was impressed by this accommodation. I bought the $55.00 coupon for a service call on Angie's List. Edwin arrived at my house right on time. He first ran a functions check on my heating unit. Within ten minutes Edwin told me that there w
as an obstruction in my flue pipe. We both went over to the end of my heating unit's flue pipe and sure enough there was a wasp nest inside the PVC pipe. The nest must have been made in the pipe and then with age and the storm, fallen and blocked the air flow of my heating unit. Once he removed the nest and he reset the unit the heater came to life and started working. Edwin made sure that the unit was operating properly and he said that the nest was the issue of my heater not working. What really impressed me was that he only charged me for a service call, which I only spent $55.00 on since I bought the coupon. I have since kept AIr novation's phone number in my records for the next time I have an issue with my heating or cooling unit. I couldn't be happier with my experience!

No services were performed, they don't service DC.

My tenant house lost its a/c, and I called Air Novations based on a recommendation by my daughter. The service coordinator with whom I spoke on the phone arranged for a technician to come the same day. He arrived on time and was very professional. I especially appreciated how knowledgeable he was and how well he communicated with me. He explained what concerns we may be facing in the future, but didn't push me to make any repairs other than those immediately necessary. I really appreciated the professionalism and integrity that I experienced from this company!

The technician arrived on time. He went to the furnace to help speed up the thawing of our unit. He took each external unit apart and cleaned them. He checked for leaks. At each step, he explained what he was doing and why. He refilled both of our units and recommended that we at least fix the leak around the seal. He also explained the charges for all the options we had. Overall, he was extremely professional, thorough, and easy to work with. The best part is that I called 5 minutes before they closed the evening before, and they arrived on time the next morning.

if you  need.............great jod  great company no problems

Excellent Job. Would use them again.

I'm in the airforce, so we probably won't be here for too long. The contract is transferrable, so I thought that would be something nice to offer when we went to sell he house.
