AC Repair in Boise, ID

Heating may be in our name, but we keep Boise cool too. Treasure Valley summers are brutal on air conditioners — weeks above 95°, fine dust clogging condenser coils, cottonwood fluff in June, and wildfire smoke loading filters by August. Capacitors cook on sun-baked pads, and refrigerant leaks show up right when the system is working its hardest.

Same flat-rate, upfront approach as our heating work: full diagnostic first, written price before we start, and trucks stocked with the capacitors, contactors, and fan motors that fix most calls in a single visit. If your system uses R-22 or is on its last legs, we'll give you an honest repair-versus-replace comparison with real numbers.

What We See Most in Boise

• AC running but blowing warm air
• Frozen refrigerant lines or iced-over coil
• System short-cycling or tripping the breaker
• Capacitor failure — outdoor fan not spinning
• Refrigerant leak (hissing, oily residue, declining performance)
• Water leaking around the indoor unit
• Outdoor unit humming but not starting
• Weak airflow from vents during smoke season (filter check first)

If your system still runs R-22, recharging it often costs more than the repair is worth — we'll show you the math on replacement before you spend it.
