Comfortmaker AC Repair Fort Myers

AC installations depend on multiple factors — not least of which is the size of your home. However, the average cost for a new, fully installed high-efficiency Lennox AC in Fort Myers is between $5,500 and $9,000, excluding add-ons. Financing plans are available to spread the upfront costs out over several months and make new AC units more affordable.

AC repair costs depend on the parts and labor time required to diagnose and fix the issue. Florida One Way Air usually charges between $100 and $1,000 or more, depending on the complexity of the repairs. We are transparent with our charges and will provide a reliable estimate upfront.

Typically, AC units last 15-20 years in Fort Myers. This will depend greatly on the type and brand of AC, the quality of the original installation, how often you run maintenance checks, the air quality in your home, and how you use the AC in your household.

An AC is a major investment. As such, it needs regular professional maintenance and any repairs should be performed only by licensed technicians. Florida One Way Air repair teams are skilled in the safe handling of cooling systems and adhere to all local codes and standards for your safety. They will troubleshoot and diagnose issues efficiently to avoid additional or unnecessary repairs, and any work they do will not negatively affect your product warranty.

It’s common for AC problems to occur when they’re working hardest, i.e., during hot spells. A sweltering house is not very comfortable for anyone, so it’s best to call a reliable AC repair team to get you back up and running ASAP. At Florida One Way Air, quick response times ensure that you’re not left sweltering in the heat.

Most times, AC repairs make sense over completely replacing a cooling system. However, if your AC is approaching 15 years of service or more and requires frequent repairs, it may be more cost-effective to switch to a high-efficiency AC that will save you money on energy bills as well as repairs in the future. Some typical signs that your AC has a problem include:

• No cool air
• Warm air coming from vents
• Higher than usual energy bills
• Leaking water
• Loud bangs or unusual noises
• Unusual or bad odors
• Frequent on/off cycles (short-cycling)
• Unexpected warm spots in the home

The AC installation process typically includes a visit to your home for an evaluation and a quote. If approved, the old AC will be removed and the new one installed and tested before the cleanup. Our team will also walk you through how to use your new system and answer any questions along the way.

To prepare for this on the day of installation, we recommend you clear the working area and remove any obstructions. Please make sure someone is home when the technician arrives to grant access and check work before finishing up.

The duration of an AC installation can vary but it typically takes our team one full day to complete an installation.

We recommend yearly maintenance to ensure your Comfortmaker AC unit is functioning at optimal performance and energy efficiency.

Aside from scheduling annual maintenance with a trusted service provider, you should replace the AC’s filters regularly to reduce strain on your cooling system.

Nearly every AC manufacturer requires regular (and sometimes annual) AC maintenance. Without proof of maintenance, the manufacturer may deny your warranty claims, potentially costing you thousands in unexpected repair costs.
