Clogged drain lines from our high humidity are the #1 issue we see, often causing water leaks and system shutdowns. We also frequently repair faulty capacitors and fans worn out by the intense heat, as well as refrigerant leaks.
As a local company serving all of Broward County, we prioritize emergency calls. Our goal is to have a certified technician dispatched and on their way to your location within 60-90 minutes of your call.
We recommend considering a replacement if your system is over 10-12 years old, requires frequent and expensive repairs, or uses the older R-22 refrigerant. A new system will provide better energy efficiency, reliability, and peace of mind.
Yes, you should address this immediately to prevent water damage. Turn off your system at the thermostat and contact us. This is usually caused by a clogged condensate drain line, a very common issue in our humid climate that our technicians can resolve quickly.
First, check the circuit breaker for your HVAC system to ensure it hasn't tripped. If the breaker is fine, the issue could be a tripped safety switch, a wiring problem, or a dead battery in the thermostat itself. If a simple battery change doesn't work, give us a call.
The cost for a new system can range from $4,500 to $10,000+. The final price depends on the unit's size (tonnage), its efficiency rating (SEER), and the brand you choose. We provide free, detailed estimates with several options to fit your budget.
We service all major brands, but for homes near the coast, we often recommend brands known for their enhanced corrosion-resistant coils, such as Carrier, Trane, and Rheem. This helps protect your investment from the damaging effects of salt air.
A typical residential AC replacement, including both the indoor and outdoor units, usually takes one full day, between 4 to 8 hours. We always provide a clear timeline with our free estimate.
Yes, we understand a new AC is a major investment. We offer flexible financing options with approved credit to help make your new, energy-efficient system more affordable. Please ask our comfort advisors about our current financing plans during your free estimate.
Tonnage is a measure of an air conditioner's cooling capacity. One ton equals 12,000 BTUs (British Thermal Units) of cooling power per hour. We perform a professional load calculation to determine the precise tonnage your home needs, as an improperly sized unit will be inefficient and ineffective.
With our air conditioners running almost constantly, especially in the August heat, regular maintenance is vital. It prevents unexpected breakdowns, improves energy efficiency to lower your FPL bill, significantly extends the lifespan of your unit, and keeps your air clean.
SEER stands for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio; a higher number means greater efficiency. While the minimum is 14 SEER, we strongly recommend a system with a 16 SEER rating or higher for Florida homes to achieve significant long-term savings.
Our comprehensive tune-ups include a full system inspection, cleaning condenser and evaporator coils, flushing the drain line to prevent clogs, checking refrigerant levels, testing all electrical components, and lubricating moving parts to ensure peak performance.
The most important thing is to change your air filter regularly (every 1-3 months). Also, keep your outdoor unit clear of leaves and debris, and use blinds or curtains to block direct sunlight during the hottest parts of the day, especially now in August.
Yes! Our "JTS Comfort Club" members often receive additional perks, such as priority scheduling for service calls, discounts on parts and labor for any needed repairs, and a waiver of overtime fees for emergency situations.
This is a common Florida problem. It can be caused by an oversized AC unit that cools the air too quickly without removing humidity, or by leaky ductwork pulling in humid attic air. We can diagnose the root cause and suggest solutions like a whole-home dehumidifier.
Yes, they are highly effective. A UV light installed in your HVAC system kills airborne mold spores, bacteria, and viruses that thrive in our humid environment. It's an excellent solution for improving air quality and reducing allergens.
We generally recommend a professional duct inspection every 2-3 years. A full cleaning may be needed every 3-5 years, or more frequently if you have pets, suffer from allergies, or have recently completed a home renovation.
Filtration involves a physical filter that traps airborne particles like dust, pollen, and pet dander. Purification is an active process that uses technology like UV light to neutralize or destroy microscopic pollutants like viruses, bacteria, and mold spores.
For most homeowners, absolutely. A smart thermostat learns your cooling habits, allows you to adjust the temperature from your phone, and provides valuable energy usage data. These features often lead to significant savings on your monthly cooling costs.
