"Very pleased working with Adams Heating and Cooling. They installed a new central air conditioner system from Rheem. Everyone I spoke with from Amber and Gene in the office, Terry in Sales, and Joey R and Alvin with the installation were friendly and professional."

"I was delighted with the help given to us at our home by William Nichols and his small, efficient crew at A-1 Heating and Cooling Enterprises. He is both very knowledgeable and a clear communicator--a most helpful combination for someone like me who knows so little about this technology. Mr. Nichols researched what we needed at our home--a replacement for a failing central AC system and a new portable AC unit for the upstairs. He offered information and choices about equipment within our financial means that would work for us. Thus we knew costs for equipment and service as fully as possible ahead of time. He and his crew came on schedule, with their tools and our new system and new portable unit--prepared to dismantle the old system and install the new one. By the time his crew left our home that day, the new equipment was working fine; all paperwork was signed; our bill was settled. We were encouraged to reach Mr. Nichols with any follow-up questions or concerns. He offers 24-hour emergency service. And when he discovered dangerous black mold in the old system--hidden and worsening for years because of an error made long ago by the original installer--Mr. Nichols removed the cause of the trouble and also referred us to an excellent system cleaning service for our home--with whom we're already following up. I do recommend Mr. Nichols and A-1 Heating & Cooling Enterprises to anyone investigating an improvement--sudden or planned--for a home. We're relieved here at our home--and we're cool."

"He turned a unusable basement bathroom into a new much appreciated functioning one. It took a lot of re-piping and a new pump with grinder was installed. Price was good, work was thorough and friendly customer service. Happy customer"

"Replaced a leaky gasket in furnace, and performed routine maintenance and service. The techs were knowledgeable and explained the work they were doing, and the reason for the recommended repairs. The techs arrived within the service time window estimate, and gave a "heads up" call about 20 minutes before arrival. They also provide a picture of the tech prior to the appointment time. They put booties over their shoes upon entering your house and leave the work area cleaner than when they arrived. Everyone at Grasshopper, from the office people to the techs, was friendly and professional. They made you feel like they actually cared about customer satisfaction. I did feel that the repair cost, relative to the amount of time spent, was on the high side, although I really have no reference to compare to. I would definitely use them again, and recommend that you consider calling them for service and/or repair."

"After dealing with a large Capital Region company for 20 years; I am glad I made the switch to Veritas Heating and Cooling! I wanted to replace my aging Central A/C unit and furnace BEFORE unexpected major problems/expenses arose that would put me in a position where I would need to --rush-- into getting estimates/new equipment installed. I found Veritas Heating and Cooling through careful research on HomeAdvisor and Angies List. What finally convinced me to get an estimate from Veritas was a neighborhood recommendation I received while asking for an HVAC company referral through the -NextDoor- neighborhood social media website. I contacted several area companies and received estimates, but after meeting Adam I was convinced his company was the one I would go with. Adam is very professional and honest. He did not try to --upsell-- me with features and equipment that I did not need. He asked me key questions and recommended the Heil equipment level I needed based on my answers. Adam is a competent, experienced craftsman, and his prices are fair. His competency and experience were evident throughout the installation and equipment start up process. Adam was very efficient and he has an excellent work ethic. Adam was willing to work with me with the installation time frame as I was not ready to install for 4 months after signing my contract. Adam --locked in-- my pricing with a 50% deposit, and performed my installation as per my schedule (there was a 10% price hike coming at the beginning of 2019). Veritas Heating and Cooling is now my go-to HVAC Company! I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone."

"The owner of the company, Jeremy Morin, was prompt and the furnance was cleaned in a timely manner. Also, he followed up with an email advising me on quotes for a new furnance as well. I will definitely continue my services with this company, and will be referring his business to my family and friends as well. I would like to mention Jeremy is a Veteran as well, and offers discounts to service men and women. Thank you again for a job well done."

FAQs for central a/c service or repair projects in Ballston Lake, NY

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.
