FAQs
How does Smart Diagnostics enhance the performance of my air-conditioning system?
Our Smart Diagnostics platform uses connected sensors and advanced analytics to monitor temperature, airflow, refrigerant pressure, and electrical performance in real time. If readings drift outside the optimal range, the system alerts our technicians instantly, allowing us to adjust settings or replace failing components before they cause a breakdown. The result is more consistent cooling, fewer emergency repairs, and lower energy consumption.
What types of air-conditioning equipment do you service in Lynchburg?
We work on all major residential and light-commercial cooling systems, including central split systems, heat pumps, mini-splits, packaged rooftop units, and high-efficiency variable-speed units. Whether your unit is brand new or more than 20 years old, our EPA-certified technicians have the tools and factory training to diagnose and repair it quickly.
How fast can you respond to an AC breakdown during peak summer months?
Because Smart Diagnostics gives us remote insight into many customers’ systems, we can often identify the problem before you call. For no-cool emergencies reported between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m., we guarantee same-day service within the Lynchburg city limits and surrounding counties. After-hours calls are handled by our on-call technician, who can usually arrive within 2–4 hours.
Will a Smart Diagnostics tune-up really lower my energy bills?
Yes. By calibrating airflow, cleaning coils, verifying refrigerant charge, and optimizing compressor staging, most customers see 10–20 % reductions in summer electricity usage. The remote monitoring feature also keeps your system running at peak efficiency all season, preventing the gradual performance declines that drive utility costs up.
What’s included in a routine air-conditioning maintenance visit?
Each visit includes a 21-point inspection: refrigerant level and leak check, coil cleaning, blower wheel cleaning, thermostat calibration, electrical connection tightening, capacitor and contactor testing, drain-line flush, filter replacement, static pressure test, and verification of Smart Diagnostics sensor readings. You receive a digital report with photos, performance metrics, and recommended actions.
Do you offer financing or maintenance plans for new installations?
Absolutely. We partner with several lenders to provide zero-interest and low-APR financing options on qualifying Lennox, Trane, and Carrier systems. Our Comfort Club maintenance plan spreads the cost of bi-annual service over 12 monthly payments, extends parts and labor warranties, and includes 24/7 Smart Diagnostics monitoring at no additional charge.
