A clear, step-by-step approach to every ac repair project we take on.
KIC Refrigeration begins every AC repair in Pomfret, NY with a systematic assessment. We verify 24-volt control voltage at the thermostat, check high and low voltage wiring for damage, inspect the disconnect for burned contacts, confirm the breaker is properly sized, and visually inspect both indoor and outdoor units before powering up the system for testing.
At your Pomfret property, our technician tests the run and start capacitors with a capacitance meter, checks the contactor for pitting and voltage drop, measures compressor amperage against rated load amps, and reads suction and discharge pressures to calculate superheat and subcooling against the manufacturer charge chart for current conditions.
We replace the failed component — capacitor, contactor, fan motor, compressor, or metering device — using parts rated for your system. For refrigerant leaks, we locate the leak, repair or replace the leaking component, evacuate, and recharge the system by weight.
KIC Refrigeration verifies every AC repair in Pomfret, NY with a comprehensive performance test. We confirm temperature split, superheat, subcooling, compressor amperage, condenser fan amperage, blower CFM, and thermostat operation. We document all readings and explain the results before we consider the job complete.
Common questions about ac repair costs, timelines, and what to expect.
AC repair in Pomfret typically costs $150 to $500 for common component failures including run capacitors ($150 to $250), contactors ($150 to $350), condenser fan motors ($250 to $500), and blower motors ($300 to $600). Compressor replacement is the most expensive repair at $1,500 to $3,500 depending on unit tonnage and whether the system uses R-410A or older R-22 refrigerant. Evaporator coil replacement runs $800 to $2,500 including the refrigerant recovery and recharge. KIC Refrigeration provides a detailed written estimate with itemized parts and labor costs before beginning any AC repair at your Pomfret property so there are no surprises on the invoice.
An AC that runs but produces little or no cooling is most commonly caused by low refrigerant charge from a leak, which reduces the suction pressure and causes the evaporator coil temperature to drop below 32 degrees, forming ice that blocks airflow completely. Other causes include a dirty condenser coil that cannot reject heat, a failed compressor that runs but does not pump refrigerant, a stuck or failed metering device — either a TXV or fixed orifice — that restricts refrigerant flow, or a blower motor running at reduced speed due to a failing capacitor. KIC Refrigeration connects manifold gauges at your Pomfret home and measures suction pressure, discharge pressure, superheat, and subcooling to diagnose the exact cause.
Most AC repairs in Pomfret are completed in 1 to 2 hours during a single service visit. Capacitor and contactor replacements are quick fixes that take 15 to 30 minutes of hands-on time. Fan motor and blower motor replacements take 1 to 2 hours including wiring and testing. Compressor replacement is the most time-intensive repair at 3 to 6 hours because it requires refrigerant recovery with an EPA-certified machine, compressor removal, new compressor installation, nitrogen-purged brazing, pressure testing at 300 PSI, evacuation to below 500 microns, and recharging by weight. KIC Refrigeration arrives at your Pomfret home with a fully stocked truck to complete most repairs in a single visit.
KIC Refrigeration repairs every major air conditioning brand installed in Pomfret homes and commercial properties — Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Rheem, Goodman, Daikin, York, Bryant, Amana, Ruud, Heil, and all other manufacturers.
