"Sorry, this is a late response. I received this service 6/14/22. The two gentlemen arrived at my house within an hour of me calling. My AC problem was discovered and repaired in no time at all. My home has been cool and no further problems with my unit since. They were prompt, swift, polite and knowledgeable. They were respectful of my property and did not leave a mess. I am still extremely satisfied!!!"

"Owner Coty Purell and his team from Urgent Air Services are phenomenal. I saw his reviews on Angie, and they linked me to him through their service. I am glad they did. He was hired for a coil cleaning because another franchised company failed to do it when they provided a tune-up a month earlier. He not only cleaned the coils but additionally saw that the motor and other parts needed cleaning. He did it with no additional charge to what he reasonably and originally quoted me. The unit looked great afterward on the inside and externally. He is honest, very thorough, and transparent with pictures showing the before and later. Urgent Air Services will be my go-to HVAC for all future needs a great, honest, and dependable company. The contractor came back for an additional repair to fix a compasitor that was weak, this requiered the approval of my home warranty insurance, he gained that approvedl with ease through them and quickly replaced the compasitor and again poricded quality service .He made the whole process very easy"

FAQs for central a/c service or repair projects in Blythewood, SC

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.
