A clear, step-by-step approach to every ac repair project we take on.
KIC Refrigeration begins every AC repair in Brunswick, GA with a systematic assessment. We verify 24-volt control voltage at the thermostat, check high and low voltage wiring for damage, inspect the disconnect for burned contacts, confirm the breaker is properly sized, and visually inspect both indoor and outdoor units before powering up the system for testing.
At your Brunswick property, our technician tests the run and start capacitors with a capacitance meter, checks the contactor for pitting and voltage drop, measures compressor amperage against rated load amps, and reads suction and discharge pressures to calculate superheat and subcooling against the manufacturer charge chart for current conditions.
We replace the failed component — capacitor, contactor, fan motor, compressor, or metering device — using parts rated for your system. For refrigerant leaks, we locate the leak, repair or replace the leaking component, evacuate, and recharge the system by weight.
KIC Refrigeration verifies every AC repair in Brunswick, GA with a comprehensive performance test. We confirm temperature split, superheat, subcooling, compressor amperage, condenser fan amperage, blower CFM, and thermostat operation. We document all readings and explain the results before we consider the job complete.
Common questions about ac repair costs, timelines, and what to expect.
AC repair in Brunswick typically costs $150 to $500 for common component failures including run capacitors ($150 to $250), contactors ($150 to $350), condenser fan motors ($250 to $500), and blower motors ($300 to $600). Compressor replacement is the most expensive repair at $1,500 to $3,500 depending on unit tonnage and whether the system uses R-410A or older R-22 refrigerant. Evaporator coil replacement runs $800 to $2,500 including the refrigerant recovery and recharge. KIC Refrigeration provides a detailed written estimate with itemized parts and labor costs before beginning any AC repair at your Brunswick property so there are no surprises on the invoice.
Most AC repairs in Brunswick are completed in 1 to 2 hours during a single service visit. Capacitor and contactor replacements are quick fixes that take 15 to 30 minutes of hands-on time. Fan motor and blower motor replacements take 1 to 2 hours including wiring and testing. Compressor replacement is the most time-intensive repair at 3 to 6 hours because it requires refrigerant recovery with an EPA-certified machine, compressor removal, new compressor installation, nitrogen-purged brazing, pressure testing at 300 PSI, evacuation to below 500 microns, and recharging by weight. KIC Refrigeration arrives at your Brunswick home with a fully stocked truck to complete most repairs in a single visit.
An AC that repeatedly trips the circuit breaker is a safety issue that should not be ignored or reset repeatedly. The most common causes are a shorted compressor winding drawing excessive amperage, a failing run capacitor that cannot provide the boost needed for compressor startup, a locked rotor condition from a mechanically seized compressor, a ground fault from damaged wiring or a grounded compressor motor, or an undersized breaker that cannot handle the inrush current. Each reset on a breaker weakens it over time. KIC Refrigeration performs thorough electrical diagnostics at your Brunswick property — including megohm resistance testing on compressor windings and amperage measurements — to identify the root cause and repair it safely.
