"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."

"Our AC unit failed in early summer 2017 and I called them for repair. The age of our old unit and cost of the repair and Freon made replacement the best option. They had a unit available and installed it in a couple of days. I was happy with the quality of their work, they cleaned up afterwards and were friendly during the entire process. Recently they called and offered a service call to check for proper operation, and to clean the unit. Again the service tech was professional and left the work area cleaner then he found it."

"The Service All Stars team of professionals provided an outstanding level of customer care and performance I had not experienced in years. Their attention to installation detail was remarkable. Not only was a new heating furnace installed, a custom fabricated air plenum was created and wrapped with insulation material to perfection. The heating unit cabinet was also neatly insulated and chalked to completion. Stated again, outstanding customer care, performance and workmanship quality. Ask for Ron (manager) directly regarding your HVAC project. He will guide you to the right place with your service needs, all leading to very a positive experience with your project. Highly recommend this group of professionals."

"Sev was a total gentleman & didn’t mind letting me know the problems he was having while diagnosing the overall situation, which is very important to me. He also put up with my tiny rugrat as he lay on the floor to get to wires & she fighting to get to his ankles for a good cleaning! Thank goodness the owner was there to intervene! Really, though, Sev went out of his way to make sure I had AC today & not a moment later! He even threw in a much needed extra in order to make sure my ac was cooling at top speed! I’m grateful & my tears of relief are real. I don’t do well in the heat & my landlord is not really able to help me with this issue now. I can finally rest well tonight! Thank you, Sev & southland heating & AC! I truly appreciate it! And, also, much gratitude for Angie’s List for making it so much easier to find trustworthy repair companies!"

"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."

"Extremely knowledgeable. One problem led to another and so on. Michael kept me informed the whole way. He easily could have just recommended a new unit but save me thousands by repairing the unit. He was timely and courteous. This man truly has the customer in mind. Everyone should call him first."

"I couldn't be happier, from their office staff to their technician. Professional and courteous service, 3 hour service window that they kept, and did not try to up sell any additional products or services. The tech even told me that my 10 year old heater looked brand new. Who does that? I'm coming back to them for all my future HAVC needs. These guys are the real deal..."

FAQs for central a/c service or repair projects in Playa Del Rey, 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.
