"David called me minutes after I posted my concern on Angi’s list and that was late Saturday night. I wasn’t even expecting a call back. I explained what we were smelling and he offered to come out Sunday or Monday. I chose Sunday since me and my husband could be there. He showed up at the time he said he would be there, even called me to give me an eta. He took his time testing for a gas leak and checked everything throughly and couldn’t find any gas leaks. He went on to check my whole hvac system explaining everything to us. David was honest and fair and said to call him back if anything happens again. He will be our new A/C guy. If anyone I know needs an a/c company I will recommend Dr. Air & Heat Services every time. Thank you David for being so thorough."

"My service person John D, was prompt, courteous, thorough and above all, honest. Did the work I asked, did not try to squeeze me for unneeded parts or services. Their prices were reasonable and customary...I will use them again. I had 2 units serviced, a/c drainage pipes cleared and filters changed."

"Everything went great. They were professional. They sent a video introducing who would be doing the work. They assessed the problems, gave me a fair quote & I had the whole HVAC system replaced! Excellent job. Tomorrow the owner will come and explain everything to me again & I will download the thermostat app and complete the transaction $$"

"This family owned business should be very proud of the professionalism and service they provide. It was already evening when I made the request and yet David still came out to help. I didn't get a lecture about how old my unit was or my slacking on changing the filters. Some guys show up talking about how busy they are and make you feel like you're bothering them with your problem. Not metro Service. Instead he was patient in explaining to me and my son how things worked and what was needed : condenser capacitor, compressor hard start kit and over a lb of coolant. Total quality and cost was absolutely reasonable. When it is time to replace my unit I will surely give Metro Service a call."

"We scheduled a 4 pm appointment. By 4:45, no one showed up or called to confirm their whereabouts. I had to call Metro Air and ask what was going on. The secretary said she will dispatch a technician to my house. The technician did not arrive until 5:30. He was kind and was able to fix the capacitor, which was causing the issue. About a week later, their office followed up. I told the lady that the a/c was on, but now there was another sound coming from the system. The secretary indicated that the technician would call me that day to discuss and set up a follow up visit to address the issue. No one ever called."

FAQs for central a/c service or repair projects in Richardson, TX

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.
