What we did
This Lancaster homeowner's HVAC system needed a repair to get running again, and the fix came down to a capacitor. A capacitor gives the motors in a heating and cooling system the electrical boost they need to start and keep running. When one fails, the system can stop working even though the rest of the equipment is in decent shape. We replaced the capacitor and restored the system's functionality during the visit.
The job did not end there. We made a note to come back after the home's duct cleaning so we can check the refrigerant levels. Checking the charge once the ductwork has been cleaned gives us a clearer picture of how the system is performing. We also put together a quote for a dryer vent installation, which would include roughly 10 feet of pipe and a termination kit.
In central Kentucky, an air conditioner works hard through humid summers and the heating side carries the load through winter. Small electrical parts like capacitors take the strain of all those starts and stops. Handling the repair, the follow-up refrigerant check, and the dryer vent quote together keeps the household's equipment on a clear plan instead of a string of surprises.
