What are the signs that an air conditioning system needs to be repaired?
An air conditioner that doesn’t cool properly, is noisy, or emits an unusual odor almost always indicates a problem that needs to be checked. Some issues can be identified without tools. Others require a technical inspection.
Here are the symptoms that indicate your device needs to be repaired:
- Reduced efficiency: The air remains lukewarm even though the thermostat is set to the lowest setting
- Unusual noise or vibration coming from the outdoor unit
- Unpleasant odors when the appliance is turned on—a sign of moisture or mold
- Short cycles; the device turns on and off repeatedly
- Persistently high humidity levels in the room
- Water leaks or signs of frost on components
A system that is more than 10 years old may require repair or replacement, depending on the condition of the compressor and the cost of parts. We’ll give you an honest assessment before any work is done.
Our Repair and Diagnostic Service
Every service call begins with a comprehensive assessment conducted by an RBQ-certified technician. Our qualified technicians serve Quebec City and Lévis, and the typical process is as follows:
- Visual inspection of the device and troubleshooting
- Measuring operating temperatures at the inlet and outlet
- Inspection of the Compressor and Electrical Components
- Checking the Air Filter and Thermostat
- Refrigerant recharge and leak detection as needed
- Final performance test prior to return to service
This method covers most residential units on the market. Our expertise includes wall-mounted and central air conditioners, as well as heat pumps. You’ll receive a clear report on the condition of your system and the repairs performed.
We service the leading brands sold in Quebec. Every replacement part meets the manufacturer’s specifications, which protects your appliance’s warranty. An RBQ-certified technician handles the refrigerant in accordance with regulations—a legal requirement that unprofessional repairs often overlook.
Repairing a Wall-Mounted Air Conditioner
Repairs to wall-mounted air conditioners apply to split-type units and wall-mounted heat pumps, which have different types of malfunctions than central air conditioning systems. Four problems frequently occur with these units: refrigerant leaks, a clogged coil, an indoor unit that no longer cools, and a blocked drain that causes water leaks.
Preventivemaintenance and cleaning involves cleaning and inspecting the air conditioning unit before the season begins. Repairs, on the other hand, address a problem that has already occurred. We make a clear distinction between the two to help you avoid unnecessary expenses for your wall-mounted heat pump.
In many cases, a wall-mounted unit that isn’t cooling properly will start working again after the coil is cleaned and the refrigerant is recharged. Before deciding to replace the unit, our technicians also check the drain, the indoor fan, and the control board. Replacing a specific part costs less than buying a new unit.
Cost and Time Required for a Repair
The cost of an air conditioning repair depends on the problem, the parts that need to be replaced, and the type of unit. We determine the price after the diagnosis, once the cause has been identified. This way, you’ll receive a free, no-obligation quote before any work is done, with no surprises on the bill. The service call and diagnosis, however, are billed directly on-site.
Our response time remains fast: most appointments are scheduled within a few days, and we complete service calls within 48 to 72 hoursduring peak season. Regular maintenance also helps prevent costly repairs, since a clean coil and a replaced filter reduce wear and tear on the compressor.

FAQ
Is it better to repair or replace an air conditioner?
It all depends on the age of the unit, the nature of the problem, and the cost of repairs. When an air conditioner is still in good overall condition, repair is often the most cost-effective solution. If repairs become frequent or very expensive, replacement may be more cost-effective in the long run. When the unit is more than 12 years old, it’s more cost-effective to replace it and start fresh with new warranties.
Can you repair air conditioners of all brands?
No. Our technicians service only the brands of air conditioners and heat pumps that we carry. If we do not carry a particular brand, it is difficult for us to honor your warranty and, consequently, to order the parts that need to be replaced. Before any repair, we perform a diagnostic check to confirm the nature of the problem and the availability of parts—but only for the brands we sell: Lennox, Carrier, Direct Air, Aux, Mitsubishi, and LG.
What should I do if my air conditioner stops working?
First, check that the circuit breaker is turned on, that the thermostat is set correctly, and that the filters are not clogged. If the problem persists, it is recommended that you call a qualified technician to avoid further damage to the system.
Can regular maintenance help prevent repairs?
Preventive maintenance cannot eliminate all the risks of breakdowns, but it helps detect problems before they get worse. It also helps maintain your air conditioner’s performance and extend its lifespan.
