"that fix went great BUT I quickly realized that John Moore will rape a fool blind if you're not paying attention. my first indication was that the appt setter tried to get me in to financing repeatedly. I figured it was something small so i told her repeatedly if i need it we'll talk. She also was trying to get into every system of my house with their services... i was all Hold UP... let's get this done before we start going down any other paths... the tech that came out was professional, wore booties in my house and was super polite. but he came out to sell me a new a/c based on the age rather than repair it. his first question is "what are we trying to do here?" AFTER noting that we'd been without a/c for 2-3 days... like the main problem wasn't getting this unit up and running and i would just say replace it. he did a great job trying to convince me the unit hadn't been serviced as evidenced by 'spiderwebs' in the electrical panel on the unit that sits in my back yard... the unit was serviced last spring... the unit is outside so duh there's spiderwebs. he took a picture with his tablet before web removal to show me but his tablet's protective screen was 'spiderwebbed' so i couldn't actually see the 3-5 spiderwebs on the equipment till he pulled that off - seemed weirdly deceptive but i'm sure they have some kind of excuse why the tablet's protective screen is so spiderwebbed that you can't actually see spiderwebs in the images... so i decided to watch him like a hawk. once he tested that capacitor (which was dead) he replaced that and my a/c fired right up despite the attitude that it's time to replace my 14 year old system and to some extent he's right but mostly not. the unit is fine but it's an r22 system so if i need work that requires freon after 01-01-20 it will need to be replaced. already made a note to have it serviced in December of this year so i have a little time. the price to replace this part was $299.00 - in the past I've paid about $125-150 for part replacement so it was kind of high but we'd been without air and our normal a/c person was out of pocket soooooo.... i bit that bullet and paid for that work. prior to him coming out i looked up the costs of replacing coils or compressor and from what i saw they shouldn't max out beyond 2k each. I mentioned this and he said oh it's much higher. like 10-12k which raised more red flags especially since i had already asked a couple of a/c peeps what that would cost and they were in the 6-7k range. After he left i did some more research to discover they're paid on commission and work very hard to get you into their new very expensive a/c units. I also see many complaints of people not actually needing new a/c's but being told they did and getting royally screwed by them. I will not be replacing my a/c with John Moore. I will be collecting bids and paying attention to the work just like i do with car mechanics. Please let me say, this technician was a champ. he did good work from what i can tell. he's probably a great sales person too. He just had the bad luck of dealing with someone like me who is used to telling sales people no and researching. John Moore's pricing sucks - you're paying for a lot more than your unit. Last night, I got the bid to replace and true to what he said, 10,499.00 for a 3 1/2 ton unit replacement. I've already asked around and the a/c peeps i spoke to said that's highway robbery. that it shouldn't be more than 7k. My advice: watch them while they do their work just like you would a mechanic working on your car. do your research! get multiple bids and learn about your home systems! and don't let the heat cause you to make bad decisions. signing that bid to replace at over 10k would have been a bad decision for me."

"We own a home-based business which relies heavily on our computers operating efficiently. We have had a service contract with another computer repair business for several years. Recently when we were having problems with our computers, we tried contacting our service contractor multiple times. He never responded. Feeling frustrated, I contacted James at North Alabama Technical Services and explained our situation. He instantly came to our rescue. He "cleaned-up" our computers and took care of all the problems we were experiencing. He went above and beyond to help us in our dire time of need. We would strongly recommend James and his company for computer service needs. We have now retained him on a service contract and are looking forward to working with him in the future."

"Service was professional and prompt. Only received one surprise after fan module did not function after evaporator coil was replaced but they replaced the module that day with no additional labor charges just parts cost. Would hire again."

"I was able to make an appointment quickly. The technician was here early, was very professional, and kept me apprised of his progress throughout. He asked questions when there were decisions to be made. He explained the whole house surge protector to me, which I decided to purchase. He made sure I understood that if it were needed that it would still mean losing electricity to the house (the same as if I didn't have a protector and there was a major electrical surge) - but that large appliances that aren't currently on surge protectors would be safe. Think refrigerator, stove, dishwasher, washer, dryer, etc. All work was performed in a professional manner and he completely cleaned up after his work. Electrical work is expensive, but with On Time Electric I am confident that the work is done properly and to code."

FAQs for window a/c unit service or relocation projects in Galveston, TX

If your window air conditioner is relatively new or of high quality, repairing it can restore optimal performance and protect your investment. However, for older units or those with ongoing issues, it might be more cost-effective to replace the unit to ensure long-term efficiency and reliability. Consider the unit's age, the severity of the problem, repair costs versus replacement, and energy efficiency ratings when making your decision. If repairs cost more than half the price of a new unit, replacement is typically the better option.

Window air conditioners last eight to ten years on average. After this time, you may notice decreased efficiency and component wear. Replacing an older unit can improve energy savings and provide updated features like remote controls and better overall performance. With proper maintenance including regular filter cleaning, coil checks, and professional servicing, you can maximize your unit's lifespan.

If your portable AC isn't cooling, it might have a refrigerant leak or a circuit malfunction that's preventing it from working properly. It's best to contact a local air conditioner contractor to inspect and repair the unit. If your AC is older and repairs don't fix the issue, replacing it might be the most effective solution.

Removing a wall-mounted AC costs $55 to $75. Completing the removal yourself at the end of each summer season, being sure to do so according to proper guidelines, keeps you within this cost range. Should you require professional assistance for removal and disposal, if you can't move the unit yourself, expect an added fee of $25 to $50 to the overall cost.
