"Excellent service, very fast response to my request for service, picked up laptop, diagnosed issues. Initially thought it was an OS update issue but the hard drive had failed along with other components (including 'CPU). Because other components were involved, a new solid state hard drive was put into a laptop with a working processor - same type CPU as in the failed unit. The laptop was repaired and returned in less than a week. This company picked up and dropped off the laptop (driving from Huntsville, AL (about 60-70 minutes)-- great service in this covid environment. I would recommend this company to my family./friends and will use again."

"Kelly (and his wife) are both wonderful - I can't say enough good things about them!!!   I'd smelled gas in the upstairs, called the gas company, and they'd come out, identified a signficant leak in the basement, shut off my gas, and said I'd need to get a plumber out to repair it before the gas could be turned back on.  I didn't know anyone to call, so found Ameriplumb through Angie's List (I'd just joined).  When I called, the person answering the phone (I think it was Kelly's wife) was very kind and said  she'd get in touch with him immediately & explain the problem.  Kelly called shortly thereafter and set up a time to come out within an hour or so to look at the problem.  He had a very full day going on, but still managed to fit me in and solve my problem - I know he ended up working late into that night as a result - so I was very grateful for his help.   The multiple leaks were in a terribly inaccessible part of the basement , and the space he had to work in was very tight.  The job was complex, with multiple curved pipes leading to others, etc., but he tackled it and in a few hours he had an entire new section of piping installed & the leaks fixed!  Then when he turned the gas back on, I still smelled gas in the upstairs.  After trouble-shooting the problem, we discovered that turn-off knob to my gas fireplace was not really in the "off" position (the Ameren workman had turned it to what he thought was the "off" position, but it was really still on)!   So Kelly figured out how it worked (it wasn't obvious, with the markings hidden by a screen & hard to read), and made sure it was truly "off".   So the gas problem was finally solved.  Then before he left, he also helped me with a few other problems/questions I had in the basement (see above for description).   He also steered me away from several solutions which would have cost alot (& made him more money), and told me less costly ways to handle things, which I think is rare.  So, all-in-all, my experience with Kelly was excellent - I definitely will be calling him again with any plumbing, heating/air or gas line problems I have in the future, and I  highly recommend him to all of you "Angie's Listers".  He has alot of all-around experience, is highly competent, and really came through for me when I really needed it!

"Everything went very well.  Job well done. Very detailed oriented. Very clean and  work done in a very timely manner.  I had estimates for a new furnace only and the cost was going to be around $4,500.00.  That did not include anything done on the air conditioner or new gas line.  I have not had any problems with my new system.  He installed another furnace for me at a rental property. And everything went very well and also saved me a lot of money."

"CHW was very responsive to our urgent need! We filed a claim the evening prior when we notices our A/C was blowing warm air into the rooms. Then by 8AM the next day, we had a call from the service technician saying he was on his way to address the issue! CHW worked with the technician to find out the compressor was the culprit and approved it's repair! Great customer service for a family in need during the hot south central Texas summer!"

"Last week, we noticed our heater was not working very well. I called Purcell's, and someone came out the next day (Wednesday) to look at it. They determined the limiting switch was broken, and he fixed it on Thursday. Our house felt warmer, but it wasn't getting to the thermostat reading. I called on Friday, and the technician came out later that evening to change the settings. The temperature dropped over the weekend, and our heater struggled to reach 64. When it read 57 on Monday morning, I called in again. Matt, the owner, said that he was going to come out to take a look at it instead of a technician because he wanted to see what was going on. He arrived before he said he would, and he found the problem to be the furnace was dirty and needed to be cleaned. He cleaned out the furnace for us, and the house is now heating properly. Within 30 minutes, our thermostat was reading 62 (before it was 58), and it is still climbing. I can definitely feel the difference as there is a lot more air pressure coming out of all the vents. Matt did not charge for the technician coming out the second time or this morning when he cleaned out the vents. He said that we had already paid enough. I really appreciated that both the technician and Matt answered our questions and did not pressure us into things that we did not need. Thank you so much for making our house warm again in such cold weather!"

FAQs for central a/c service or repair projects in Urbana, IL

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.
