"I had a light switch develop a 'hot' smell last night. My wife also go shocked pretty hard when we took the case off of it and she was just holding her hand to the front of the switch to see if it felt hot. She didn't stick her finger back in the switch or anything that would justifiably shock her. I called William Jean this morning, and he was able to get someone out to my house by early afternoon, so he was very responsive. The contractor who came to my house turned the power back on, then proceeded to go through and test the switches and connections. He told her everything was fine, so she asked how she got shocked and he told her that she didn't get shocked. Well, yes, she did. He told us the switch that had the light/fan on it wasn't powerful enough and that was what was causing the smell, but he didn't have one he could install. We would have to go purchase a new one and then he could come out and install it. Well, I won't be having him install the switch. $70 cash (a slight discount for cash) to tell us the switch wasn't powerful enough seems a bit steep, and since he completely discounted the notion that she got shocked, I'm not convinced that there isn't another problem in the switch box."

"      I am a single woman with no experience in home repairs.  I was skeptical when a structural engineer told me that my home had severe foundation damage.  Obviously, this area was new to me and I needed someone to explain it.  After further deliberation, I decided to contact Alternative Building Concepts, Inc.  After the initial visit, I felt hopeful that my foundation problem would be remedied.
    I have now worked with Alternative Building Concepts, Inc. for over a year and everyone involved has proven to be professional, dependable and trustworthy.  As a result of my satisfaction with the foundation repair and stabilization, we started discussing other projects.  As of today, they have completed five separate main projects.
    
    I am thankful Alternative Building Concepts, Inc. always took extra time to go over details and procedures to help me understand the projects.  I have been completely satisfied with all my projects, and, I would recommend them for any future construction needs.
    I deliberately waited a few months in order to guarantee everything was working to my satisfaction. and also to see how they would handle a couple of concerns I had.  I was pleased they handled any issues  I had promptly and professionally!!
    
    Their motto is " Leaders in construction, followers of Jesus."  After nine months of working with them, I can attest they really do stand by their motto!!

FAQs for central a/c service or repair projects in Ottawa, WV

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.
