"June 13, 2025 (First Visit): The technician injected 5.5 lbs. of refrigerant into the system (which holds up to 8 lbs) without performing a leak test to identify the root cause. I was charged $522.50 for this service. The repair failed two nights later, as the refrigerant leaked out again. June 16, 2025 (Second Visit): A leak test was finally performed, which located the leak in the evaporator coil inside the attic s air handler. I was charged an additional $250 for this diagnostic. The technician recommended replacing the coil and sent an estimate, which I approved. June 26, 2025 (Third Visit): The technician replaced the evaporator coil and recharged the system with 8 lbs. of refrigerant. I was charged $3,504.90 for this visit. However, the system failed again the next day when the breaker tripped due to a grounded compressor an issue that had not been diagnosed earlier. June 27, 2025 (Fourth Visit): Upon inspection, the technician confirmed the compressor in the outdoor unit had shorted. While on a call with the business owner, the technician charged my credit card for the full invoice amount of $3,504.90 before presenting the invoice or explaining the outcome of the repair. He then left without further explanation, stating that the business owner would follow up. Later that day, the business owner called to suggest replacing the entire HVAC system with one of the proposals from the earlier estimate. This recommendation should have been made prior to investing in the costly and ultimately ineffective coil replacement. At no point was I advised that the repair approach might not be viable or that full system replacement should be considered. To make matters worse, I later discovered that the technician had damaged the attic hatch during service and failed to disclose it."

Fayette Heating & Air was founded in 1971 with one man, one truck and $500. From the start, Al Melrose was committed to providing quality equipment with integrity and outstanding customer service. As a second generation family-owned business, those same values lead our company today. Fayette Heating & Air has been recognized nationally, regionally and locally for both business practices and its community efforts.

"BUYER BEWARE!!!!! This company is all about getting their $99.00 for the estimate, selling you an annual service fee and then quoting exuberant prices. Not really sure if they really care about doing the actual plumbing work. Recently gave me an estimate for a job of $500. Learned later after from another plumber that what they wanted to do was actually not correct AND should have cost no more than $250. Had I used Fayette Heating / H20 Mastero, I would have paid $600 for a job done incorrectly. At least the 99.00 I paid kept me from damaging my house further. There are a lot of reputable plumbers in Lexington. Suggest you look elsewhere"

FAQs for central a/c service or repair projects in Richmond, KY

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.
