"On Wednesday, 08/28/2024, I used the Angi app because my AC unit was not coming on and had a red light and I had suspected a compressor. Rocky HVAC came to inspect the AC unit. They told me that it had a leak and that they would fix the leak and then add freon for a total of $1,150.00, including a diagnostic fee of $75.00, which I paid same day (08/28/2024). The next day (Thursday, 08/29/2024) I called the provider and asked them to go ahead and repair the unit. They later called me and said that they had fixed it and requested payment. I paid the requested amount of 1,075.00 upon they claim of repairs, but then just a few hours later, my tenant called me that the unit was not working, and that the property was very hot. I called back Rocky HVAC on Friday, 08/30/2024 and explained to them that the unit was not working. They said that they would call me back and after waiting for several hours without getting a call back, I called again and this time they said that they will send someone back to the property. Rocky HVAC finally came the next day (Saturday, 08/31/2024) and upon looking at the unit, they told my tenant that the unit needs to be replaced. When I go to the property, my tenant relayed the information to me, so I called Rocky HVAC and asked why I was not told from the storm art that fixing a freon leak was never an option, but rather replacing the entire unit. They claimed that they had said so but it is extremely disingenuous because if they had ever mentioned that I needed a new unit, I would not have wasted time and money to fix something else. I asked them for a refund of $1,150.00, but they are instead telling me that they would rather credit me $500.00 towards a new unit."

"Elevation HVAC was extremely professional and high quality at a reasonable price - a great overall value for a job well- done. Tracy had numerous opportunities to up-charge or otherwise make more money from this job, but he chose to save us money where he could, instead. Finally, it was a complicated job - replacing a large HVAC unit piece by piece through a small access hole in a master closet - and he took great care to protect the walls, shelving and closet contents. Tracy is my “forever” HVAC guy, who will return for service when needed!"

"I had an absolutely terrible experience with McRae Air Conditioning and Heating. I purchased a home equipped with their HVAC system, and within just five months, the heat stopped working—right in the middle of winter during a snowstorm. My home was freezing at 50°F, so I called for service, which should have been covered under warranty. I scheduled an appointment, and the technician, after being several hours late, went to the wrong address, left a sticker on someone else’s door, and left without even trying to contact me. When I called back, the customer service rep was rude, dismissive, and completely unhelpful. He initially told me the technician was on the way and just 12 miles away—but after another hour of waiting, I called again only to be told that the technician had already “been to my house 2 hours ago” (the wrong one) and left a note. If the rep actually wanted to help, he would have told me this during my first call instead of wasting my time and leaving me sitting in the cold. Not once did the technician call me to confirm the address or check in after knocking on the wrong door. When I expressed my frustration, the rep rudely dismissed my concerns, saying, “Well, I had nothing to do with that,” and then interrupted me with, “Do you still want to rebook or not?” as if I had to stop talking or risk not getting another appointment. This was an emergency call in the middle of winter, and McRae handled it in the most unprofessional, careless, and disappointing way possible. If you’re considering using them for HVAC service, do yourself a favor and go with another company. I’ll update this review after the (hopefully successful) service call and speaking to the manager who was not there at 4 pm on a Wednesday."

FAQs for central a/c service or repair projects in Accokeek, MD

A condenser fan motor is a crucial part of your air conditioner that prevents the compressor from overheating. It pulls heat from your AC unit to cool the refrigerant moving through the condenser coils. This allows your system to blow cool air and keeps everything running smoothly.

The most common causes of AC fan motor failure include loss of lubricant in the system due to overheating and a rusted or leaking run capacitor. Poor lubrication can also cause failure in the belt drive, which may impact the AC fan motor. Weather and electrical components can also affect your AC. For example, a storm could send water into your motor windings and damage the internal components.

Air conditioner fan motors last about 12 years on average, though they can last longer if maintained well. This includes keeping them clean and cooled as needed with annual air conditioner checkups. Routine maintenance is essential to catch AC fan issues early. An HVAC inspection can cost between $70 and $500, while AC cleaning services may range from $100 to $400.

A broken AC fan motor may need replacement because this part usually can’t be repaired. Several things indicate it’s time to replace your AC fan motor, including buzzing noises, a constantly running fan, unusually high energy bills, or an aging system. If you notice these signs, call an HVAC pro for help before the faulty motor starts to strain other parts of the AC system.

There are clear warning signs of a bad AC fan motor, including unusual interruptions in the fan operation. The motor might be malfunctioning if you hear weird noises like grinding or rattling or if the fan continues to spin when the unit is off. These indicators compromise your AC’s cooling performance and increase your energy costs. Addressing these issues immediately by contacting a trusted HVAC professional prevents further damage and safeguards your HVAC's efficiency.

Replacing your AC fan motor takes a professional one to four hours. The technician will start by assessing your system and safely removing the damaged motor. If a new part needs to be ordered, it might take a few days. Once the part is available, your pro will install it properly and make sure your system is running smoothly.
