"Did some work, then scheduled a follow-up appointment to install a part. Missed two appointments without any notice to me. In the end I have to start over again with another company, and so will have to pay another service fee. I called the company to speak with the owner, but they had the service person call me."

"Had Darren install a new unit and duct work in my house about a year ago. I am now about to call him to get a annual service done and wanted to post about my service and experience with Darren and his team. I had a great experience Darren was very good and I felt confortable with him after getting 4 quotes. He is not the cheapest and definitely not the most expensive but I believe the quality of the work is by far worth the extra cost. Darren was good and he and his team member were very professional. Darren even took the time to walk me through the warranty process with the A/C manufacture to ensure all the paper work was correct in order to get the warranty. I would highly recommend Gulfside A/C for good quality work. They did my job in less than 2 days for a full replacement with ducts included and they even ran additional air outlets. I am about to call Darren to get my yearly service so again I would highly recommend these guys."

FAQs for central a/c service or repair projects in Saint Petersburg, FL

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.
