Warm air from the vents
Refrigerant, compressor, capacitor and airflow checks to find why the system runs without cooling.

Central air conditioners, heat pumps in cooling mode and ductless systems. Most visits start with a full diagnostic so the repair targets the real cause.
Refrigerant, compressor, capacitor and airflow checks to find why the system runs without cooling.
Thermostat, breaker, disconnect, contactor and control-board testing.
Usually airflow or refrigerant charge. We fix the cause, not just thaw the ice.
Blower motors, dirty coils, clogged filters and duct problems that leave rooms warm.
Buzzing, grinding or burning smells checked before a small problem becomes a failed compressor.
Condensate drains, pans and pumps cleared and tested.
Many Palo Alto homes added air conditioning decades after they were built, so condensers sit in tight side yards and coils sit in attics or crawlspaces.
HAXX locates the leak before recharging. Topping off a leaking coil only delays the next service call.
Failed capacitors, contactors and burned wiring at the disconnect are the usual reasons a condenser will not run on a hot afternoon.
Clogged condensate lines and dirty coils cause water damage and frozen evaporators, especially in older attic systems.

“Our commercial building had several HVAC problems, and their team carefully diagnosed each unit, explained the available options, and never pressured us into unnecessary replacements. They worked hard to repair what could be repaired and kept us informed throughout the process.”
Brand, model and what it is doing. Photos of the label or error code help.
The technician tests the system and finds the cause, not just the symptom.
You see the repair price before work starts, and the options if a repair is not worth it.
The repair is completed and tested, or scheduled once the part arrives.

Yes. HAXX repairs existing central and ductless systems of all major brands. Local rules discussed for new equipment apply to replacements, not repairs.
Usually low airflow from a dirty filter or coil, or a low refrigerant charge from a leak. HAXX checks both.
