Expert Air Conditioning Services in East Rutherford, NJ

We recommend having your air conditioning system professionally serviced twice a year - once in spring before the cooling season and once in fall before heating season. Regular maintenance helps prevent breakdowns, improves efficiency, and extends equipment life. Our comprehensive tune-up includes filter replacement, coil cleaning, refrigerant level checks, and performance testing.

The right size AC unit depends on several factors including your home's square footage, insulation levels, number of windows, ceiling height, and local climate. An undersized unit will struggle to cool your home, while an oversized unit will cycle on and off frequently, reducing efficiency and comfort. Our certified technicians perform detailed load calculations to recommend the perfect size system for your East Rutherford home.

A typical residential AC installation takes 4-8 hours for a direct replacement and 6-12 hours for a new installation with ductwork modifications. Complex installations or whole-house systems may require 1-2 days. Factors affecting installation time include system size, accessibility, electrical requirements, and any necessary ductwork modifications. We provide accurate time estimates during our free consultation.

Several issues can cause poor cooling including dirty air filters, low refrigerant levels, blocked air vents, thermostat problems, or dirty coils. Start by checking and replacing your air filter, ensuring all vents are open and unblocked, and verifying thermostat settings. If these steps don't resolve the issue, it's time to call our professional technicians for a thorough diagnosis and repair.

Watch for these warning signs: unusual noises (grinding, squealing, or banging), weak airflow, warm air from vents, frequent cycling, high humidity levels, water leaks around the unit, strange odors, or sudden increases in energy bills. These symptoms often indicate issues that require professional attention to prevent costly breakdowns and maintain efficient operation.
