AC Repair in Windsor

AC Repair for Windsor homes

Windsor's homes range from early-1900s brick houses with radiators in Walkerville and the older core to post-war bungalows and newer subdivisions in the east and south ends. During Windsor heat waves, outdoor units run almost nonstop, and capacitors and contactors are the parts that give up first. Cottonwood fluff and dust also clog outdoor coils in older, tree-lined neighbourhoods, which pushes head pressure up and shortens component life.

What's included

Air conditioner repair for warm air, frozen coils, leaks, tripped breakers and outdoor units that hum but won't start. Depending on your home and equipment, the work can include:

• Blowing warm air
• Frozen lines or coil
• Refrigerant leaks
• Water leaks indoors
• Tripped breakers
• Noise
• Thermostat.
• Filter.
• Power.
• Outdoor unit.

Local conditions in Windsor

Long, humid summers make cooling a necessity in Windsor rather than a luxury. Removing humidity matters as much as lowering the temperature, so we size equipment to run steady cycles, and we use ductless systems in homes with radiators where running ducts isn't practical.

Questions to ask before you hire

Whoever you hire for AC repair in Windsor, get clear answers to these before signing:

• What failed and why?
• If there's a leak, where is it and will it be repaired before recharging?
• What refrigerant does my system use?
• Is my system old enough that replacement makes more sense?

Permits and licensing

Building permits in Windsor are issued by the City of Windsor's Building Services department. Some HVAC work, such as new ductwork in renovations or changes that affect the building structure, may need a permit, while gas appliance installations must be done by a TSSA-registered contractor and electrical work by a licensed electrical contractor. We confirm what applies to your project during planning.
