Hard start kit in Mount Pleasant: Problems We Fix

Coastal humidity and salt air are hard on air conditioners in Mount Pleasant. Condenser coils corrode faster, drain lines clog with algae, and systems run long hours pulling moisture out of the house. Our technicians clean coils, treat drains and check refrigerant charge on every visit because those are the failures we see most here.

“AC not cooling, house at 84 degrees. Diagnosed a bad contactor, replaced it, cold air in 40 minutes. Fair price too.”
