Repair and refrigerant service
Diagnosis and repair on central air systems: capacitors, contactors, compressors, fan motors, control boards, and refrigerant leaks. If the charge is low, we find the leak instead of just adding refrigerant.

AC repair, maintenance and installation in Northwest Indiana
Indiana summers get humid fast. When the AC quits, we get you cool again and tell you honestly what it took.
Straight Talk
Cool again, with a straight answer about why it failed
Most AC calls come down to a handful of causes: low refrigerant from a leak, a failed capacitor, a dirty coil choking airflow, or a drain line backed up. We find the actual cause rather than topping off refrigerant and driving away, because a system that is low is a system that is leaking.

The Work
What we handle
Service, seasonal maintenance, and full replacements.
Seasonal cleanings and tune-ups
Coil cleaning, airflow, drain line clearing, and performance checks before the first hot stretch. A clean system moves the air it was built to move.
Full system replacement
New central air and complete system installs, sized to the house. Oversized equipment cools the air without pulling the humidity out, which is why a house can be cold and still feel clammy.
Mini splits and zoning
Ductless mini splits for additions, garages, and rooms that duct work never reached, plus zoning so you are not cooling the whole house to fix one room.
Know The Signs
Signs your AC needs service
Air conditioners rarely fail without warning. Catch these early and the repair is smaller.
- 01
The air coming out is warm, or the system runs constantly and never reaches the setting
- 02
Weak airflow from the vents even with a clean filter
- 03
Ice on the refrigerant line or on the indoor coil
- 04
Water pooling around the indoor unit or a backed-up drain pan
- 05
Grinding, buzzing, or a hard clunk when the outdoor unit starts
- 06
The electric bill jumped without a change in how you use the house
- 07
The system short cycles, kicking on and off every few minutes
- 08
The house cools unevenly, one room freezing and another humid

Questions
AC Repair, Maintenance & Install questions
Straight answers, no fine print. Anything not covered here, the phone is faster.
My AC is blowing but the house is not getting cool. What is wrong?
The common causes are low refrigerant from a leak, a failed capacitor, a frozen or dirty coil, or a blocked filter restricting airflow. It needs to be diagnosed rather than guessed at, because adding refrigerant to a leaking system just buys a few weeks.
How often should an AC be serviced?
Once a year, before cooling season, is the normal rhythm. A yearly cleaning and check catches small problems while they are still small and keeps the system moving the air it should.
Do you install ductless mini splits?
Yes. Mini splits are a good answer for additions, garages, sunrooms, and any space the ductwork never reached.
Do you offer emergency AC service?
Yes. Emergency service is 24/7, including weekends and holidays, at (219) 649-0149.
