"Matt did great. Showed up on time and ready, as is usual with all the Streamline employes we've dealth with in the past. He inspected the units, talked with me about the status and the possible upcoming issues. Very personable and seemed to be well informed. I've posted really positive things about Streamline and it is 100% honest. They're simply a well run company with employees who seem to really care about providing good service."

"I could not be more happy or recommend more highly Maynor HVAC for their electrical services. Their field manager Norm stopped by my home on more than one occasion and helped me think thru my planned layout, define the right materials and ensure everything met state and federal codes. On the day the work was completed, Chris K and Julius arrived right on time and worked well into the early evening to get the job done. There work was immaculate and they took the time throughout the day to answer any questions I had. Can't thank them enough for the great work. When the city of Apex inspector came by to perform the final inspection, he looked around and within 60 seconds turned to me and said, "Wow, this is perfect!" to which I agreed wholeheartedly. Thanks guys, great job!"

"Raymond, did an excellent job for us! We contacted no less than 6 contractors trying to repair or if necessary replace our 2.5 yr old unit. He not only repaired our unit, but discovered it was still under warranty for parts! 4 other contractors said we had only a year warranty when we actually had a 3(THREE) yr warranty. It did take some time for all the parts to come in, but I think that's a nationwide issue of supply chain! Raymond is definitely our HVAC guy from now on! Thank you, Raymond for a job well done!"

"The Air Experts technician, Allen, arrived right on time for our semi-annual system check appointment. Everything was fine except the filter. No hard sale. No unneeded parts or repairs. Such a relief compared to other companies I dealt with in the past. I am grateful to Air Experts for this level of 5-star customer service."

"Tech was on time, professional, and very informative. Learned a lot from Antonio as he inspected our two units (split and package hvac) and performed the annual maintenance required. One unit was installed in 2006 and other two years ago. Both running well. Suggested repairs on older unit were made....may replace next year. Antonio explained less than favorable condition of old unit capacitor...still working but could go out. We'll wait to replace unit when repair costs outweigh value of old unit. Tech was very helpful in explaining status. CCA has been a very reliable HVAC service...technicians, such as Antonio, have proven to be quite competent and trustworthy."

"Overall the completed work was fine. Not sure how the pricing was calculated based on the required job. I hope someone could explain how they come up these prices. And yes, based on the job that was performed, the price was high. Would the price be by the job or the hours actually worked?"

"On a Friday evening our upstairs air conditioning unit suddenly stopped working. Gand M sent a service technician to our home within an hour of my call to their answering service. The technician, Greg Stephens, was knowledgeable and professional and immediately diagnosed the problem which happened to be the result of a mistake made by our previous HVAC company. I can't compliment Gand M enough for their fast response, quick diagnosis and reasonable price for an after hours visit. After dealing with a couple of other HVAC companies it was a pleasure to deal with Gand M. <br />"

FAQs for central a/c service or repair projects in Apex, NC

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.
