"The first HVAC contractor (a national chain) I had in to look at my central A/C diagnosed the air handler's fan blowing backwards as a result of a lightning strike scrambling the circuitry. (I told them about the lightning strike in the interest of full disclosure.) This other contractor said it likely needed a new fan but because of the strike they would not repair it. Instead, they would only replace the entire air handler...to the tune of $5700. We were prepared to suffer through the imminent heat wave and fork over the big bucks, but I wanted to get at least one other quote. I had found B&M on HomeAdvisor and requested an appt for a quote. HomeAdvisor wound up canceling the appt because they hadn't heard back from B&M. I decided to call directly. I talked to Paul M and he said they were so busy and couldn't commit to the HomeAdvisor appt time but that they would squeeze me in. I was expecting only a quote, but they didn't give up and wound up fixing it on the spot. It's been working like a champ through the heat wave, and it only cost me $217. Paul even followed up a few days later to ask how it was performing. I highly recommend B&M."

"Great experience Justin, Nate & Timothy were awesome. Very knowledgeable, professional & curious. Aside from the cleanliness they delivered an experience. I highly recommend HL bowman if you want rapid service on your HVAC. Pricing was reasonable in my opinion & financing is an option. Keep in mind when seeking quotes for your HVAC repair/ new install you must consider performance over equipment, that is if your want a good system that will have a good run/life span."

"Overpriced and incompetent. JN Service has worked on my house 5+ times in the last month, totaling nearly $10k, and every visit created a new problem that cost more to fix. Most recently, they came for a small leak and left after cutting/breaking multiple pipes, leaving my entire home with no running water?despite assuring me I?d have at least cold water. They then returned only with an expensive full-home repipe quote, refusing to even quote a local repair. I?ve since had three other plumbing companies inspect everything; all agreed that JN?s technical decisions were poor, their repipe quote was severely overpriced, and their quote structure (initially with almost no detail) was concerning at best, predatory at worst. I will never use JN Service again and strongly recommend others avoid them."

"Dylan was amazing. My hvac person retired & I found Dylan when my Central air decided to act up. He explained my unit was in approaching its last days but he could attempt to repair it if I wished but I decided it was time to do a complete new heating & cooling system & he made it a easy process. No pressure & no stress. Now we’re ready for the heat wave that’s apon on us. Thank you Dylan & your team for your professionalism & great service. I highly recommend & they’re my go to for plumbing as well as I’m about to have them replace my hot water tank before it becomes an issue"

"BEWARE OF THIS COMPANY I purchased a brand-new heating system for $15,000 in September 2025. The system came with a one-year company warranty in addition to the manufacturer?s warranty. Despite being new, the system malfunctioned four times within less than six months ? on December 4, December 6, December 17, 2025, and again on February 14, 2026. Why would a brand-new $15,000 heating system fail four times in less than six months? Each time I called the company, the response was slow. I later learned they do not provide evening, weekend, or emergency service. This was during the heart of winter, and I was completely at their mercy to service a system that was still under warranty. When I requested to speak with a manager, I was consistently blocked. The secretary or office staff always had an excuse as to why no manager was available. There was never an opportunity to address my concerns directly with leadership. The company presents as polished and professional when selling the"

FAQs for central a/c service or repair projects in Scituate, MA

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.
