"Great professional service. Showed up next day to fix my AC. They found and repaired the previous work done by another company. If you want the work done correctly and you want to pay fair pricing, call them. The previous company I used were not honest and sold me fixes I did not need and did not repair the things that needed to be repaired. I think they did this so they could continue to come out and charge me for things like adding freon to my AC but never repairing the leak which I eventually found myself. The leak was in an outside line, highly visible (once I knew what to look for). I called AC Dave and they fixed it right away and my AC has never worked better."

"It was over 90 degrees outside and the A/C was not blowing cold air. I called and explained it was for my 85 year old mother who was in home Hospice with end stage Parkinson's. I was worried she may get a heat stroke. They scheduled a service tech to visit in a timely manner. The service tech called an hour before the scheduled appointment to let me know he was on his way. Mark (service tech) was very professional and friendly. He not only got the A/C compressor to work but checked the Freon pressure and went in the basement to inspect the remainder of the equipment. He explained what might need replacing in the near future. Now I am not worried about my mother getting heat. I highly recommend this company for any heating and cooling repairs."

"Having already consulted with several HVAC businesses about repairing and updating my central air conditioning.. One that I had worked with previously-- but my satisfaction level wasn't that great and the others I was speaking to seem to be setting their rates rather high. So from several reviews and recommendation, I consulted with the SoCal boys.. And I am thrilled that I did. They were prompt, cordial, yet very professional-- respected my own knowledge. We conversed pleasantly then got down to it I was extremely pleased with their knowledge, openness and most of all their honesty! And their prices were more than fair! They knocked it out of the park! I would recommend them highly to just about anyone I know. They have my thanks and my respect!"

"This was absolutely the best service I could have imagined. My vents went from filthy to spotlessly clean. I feel as if I can breath again. The value for the services provides was excellent. The technician, Elie, was fantastic. He was so service oriented and treated my wife and I like his own family. He worked with us on pricing so it was affordable and he gave us a ten year "club membership" for only $999.00 which gives us ten years of maintenance, twice a year for the next ten years to keep our heating and cooling systems updated and clean. I strongly recommend The Right Choice Heating and Air. They are fantastic. Thank you, Elie, for everything and keeping my family healthy! You're the bomb!"

"One of the best experiences I have ever had with a service tech. He was polite and friendly. He explained everything in ways I could understand. He pointed out things that needed to be fixed, but he did not try to force me to fix them right now. I will use him again when we have a problem with our AC."

FAQs for central a/c service or repair projects in Montrose, CA

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.
