When It’s Hot Outside, You Need an Air Conditioner You Can Trust

At PV, we do the legwork to ensure you always get the right AC for your home and stay comfortable all summer. Instead of quick fixes or "good enough" solutions, we dig deeper to address the real cause of your cooling issues—and solve them for good.

Why Choose PV?

  • We Perform a Manual J Load Calculation — No shortcuts. We measure your home’s cooling needs precisely so your new air conditioner isn’t undersized or overpowered.
  • Top-Tier Installations — Our experienced technicians deliver a Grade A+ installation, done fully to spec—no cut corners or last-minute workarounds.
  • Every Installation Gets Audited — After the job, a senior team member returns to ensure the system is perfect and meets our highest standards.

INFO CENTER

All About Air Conditioner Repair and Replacement: Key Details, Tips, and Benefits for a Worry-Free Home

My air conditioner isn’t cooling — is there anything I should check before calling?
Yes, a few simple things. First, double-check your thermostat settings to make sure it’s set to “cool” and the temperature is lower than the current room temp. Also, check your air filter — if it’s extremely dirty, it can block airflow and cause cooling issues. You should also ensure no breakers are tripped and that the HVAC switches are on. If everything looks correct and your AC still won’t cool, it’s time to call us for a professional diagnosis.
How quickly can you respond if my AC breaks down at night or on a weekend?
We strive to respond as fast as possible when you have an HVAC emergency. In many cases, we can dispatch a technician to your home within a couple of hours, even on weekends​. Our team understands that a broken AC is urgent – we won’t leave you waiting in the heat longer than necessary.
What air conditioning services do you offer?
We provide a full range of residential air conditioning services. Our team handles everything from new AC installations and system design to reliable AC repairs and routine maintenance/tune-ups. No matter the make or model of your system, we have the expertise to keep it running efficiently. We even work on ductless mini-split AC systems, so all your cooling needs are covered.
What AC brands can you install or service?
We work with all major air conditioner brands. Our team has experience installing and repairing systems from top manufacturers like Carrier, Lennox, Trane, Goodman, Rheem, and many others. Rest assured, we can service virtually any brand of central AC or ductless mini-split that you have or prefer.
Will PV try to repair my AC first instead of pushing a replacement?
Yes, absolutely. Our philosophy is to do what’s truly best for the customer, not our bottom line. If your AC can be safely and reliably repaired, we’re going to recommend repairing it​. We’re not in the business of selling you equipment you don’t need. Of course, if your system is completely dead or the repair would cost almost as much as a new unit, we’ll discuss replacement – but we’ll do so only after explaining why and making sure you agree it’s the best path.
The AC is running, but the air isn’t as cold as it should be. What might be wrong?
There are a few possibilities when your AC blows air that isn’t cold enough. You could have low refrigerant due to a leak, which means your system can’t cool effectively. It could also be a failing component like a compressor or capacitor, or even something like a very dirty coil restricting cooling​. Essentially, your AC is struggling to remove heat as it normally would. The best step is to have us come out and diagnose it – we’ll pinpoint the exact cause and get your AC cooling at full strength again.
My AC seems to run constantly on extremely hot days. Is that normal?
During heat waves or very hot Atlanta afternoons, it’s actually pretty normal for an AC to run for longer cycles or even nearly continuously. Air conditioners are designed to maintain the temperature you set, so on a 95°F day a properly sized unit might run non-stop to keep your home at, say, 75°F​. As long as it’s keeping you comfortable, constant running in extreme heat isn’t necessarily a bad sign. However, if it runs all day and still can’t reach or hold the thermostat setting, then it’s struggling – in that case, you should give us a call to check for issues like low refrigerant or an undersized system.
What are common signs that my air conditioner needs repair?
Warm air blowing from your vents when the AC is on is a clear sign, as are unusual loud noises like grinding or banging from the unit. You might also notice ice forming on parts of the AC or that the thermostat isn’t responding to adjustments. If your AC is running but not cooling, or your energy bills have spiked unexpectedly, those are signs something may be wrong. When in doubt, it’s best to have a professional check it out before a small issue becomes a big problem.
How much does air conditioning repair usually cost?
The cost can vary depending on the problem and the parts required. After we diagnose your AC, we’ll let you know exactly what the repair will cost before we proceed. We pride ourselves on fair and transparent pricing — no surprise costs. We never recommend unnecessary work, and if we find multiple options (like repair vs. replace), we’ll discuss them with you so you can make an informed decision.
Are your technicians certified and experienced?
Absolutely. Our HVAC technicians are NATE-certified professionals with extensive training and experience. Each technician undergoes over 125 hours of training every year to stay up-to-date on the latest cooling technology. You can trust that the person servicing your AC knows what they’re doing and will treat you and your home with respect.
Should I repair or replace my air conditioner?
It depends on the unit's age and the cost of the repairs. If your AC is older (around 10-15 years or more) and facing a major repair, investing in a new system can be more cost-effective in the long run. Frequent breakdowns or very high energy bills are also signs that replacement might be wiser. For newer systems with minor issues, a professional repair is usually the best choice — we'll always help you weigh the options honestly.
Do you offer financing for air conditioning repairs or installations?
We do. We know a new AC or major repair can be an investment, so we have multiple financing options to help make it manageable. With approved credit, you can secure financing that allows you to buy now and pay over time. This way, you can get the comfort you need without straining your budget.
What happens during an AC repair service call?
Our technician will arrive, discuss the issue you’re experiencing, and then perform a thorough diagnostic check of your air conditioning system. We’ll inspect and test components to pinpoint the problem, whether it’s a faulty part, a refrigerant leak, or an airflow issue. Importantly, we focus on solving the underlying cause of your AC trouble — not just patching symptoms — so you won’t face the same issue again soon. Once we diagnose the issue, we’ll explain what we found and go over repair options, always providing an upfront quote before any work begins.
Can you repair ductless mini-split air conditioners?
Yes, we repair ductless mini-split AC systems as well. Our technicians are trained to handle all types of cooling systems, including ductless mini-splits. Whether your mini-split isn’t cooling properly, has a leak, or won’t turn on, we can diagnose it and get it working again. We have experience with all major mini-split brands, so you can count on us to fix the issue and restore comfort.
Why are some rooms in my house hotter or colder than others?
Inconsistent temperatures from room to room usually indicate an airflow or design issue with your HVAC system. It could be caused by improper ductwork, poor system sizing, or an aging layout that isn’t balancing the air properly. We can diagnose the cause of these hot and cold spots and recommend solutions — sometimes adjusting ducts or adding zoning — to help every room stay comfortable.
If my AC just needs a small fix, will you still come out?
Absolutely. No call is too small – we want to help you be comfortable. Even if it turns out to be something simple like a thermostat setting, a tripped breaker, or a dirty filter, we’re happy to come out and get it sorted. Homeowners often aren’t sure how serious an issue is, and that’s okay. We’d rather you call us for a little problem than risk bigger issues down the line. Our technician will either fix the minor issue on the spot or give your system a clean bill of health if everything looks good.
Some rooms in my house aren’t cooling properly. Can you fix airflow or duct issues?
Yes, uneven cooling is something we deal with often. Our team can investigate the cause – it might be as simple as adjusting dampers or as involved as sealing leaky ductwork or redesigning parts of the system. We take a holistic look at your home’s airflow to pinpoint the issue. In some cases, hot and cold spots can even be due to insulation or home layout issues beyond the AC itself​. Whatever the cause, we’ll find a way to balance your system so every room gets comfortable.
Do you stand behind your work with any guarantees or warranties?
Yes, we do. We take pride in our work, and your satisfaction is our top priority. For repairs, we offer a warranty on the parts we replace and our labor — if something isn’t fixed right, we’ll make it right. For new system installations, you’ll receive a strong warranty (in most cases, 10 years parts and labor). We want you to have peace of mind when you choose PV.
How long does a new AC installation take?
In most cases, a standard air conditioner replacement can be completed in a single day. We’ll schedule a convenient day for you (as soon as the next day after your consultation), arrive on time, and work efficiently to get your new system up and running. If your installation is more complex — for example, involving new ductwork or other upgrades — it could take longer, but we always communicate the timeline upfront. Our goal is to install your AC properly and test everything thoroughly without unnecessary delays.
Do you have maintenance plans or service agreements?
Yes, we offer a maintenance plan called the PV Priority Service Plan. We come out twice a year to service your HVAC system — once for a cooling season AC tune-up and once for a heating tune-up. Plan members receive priority scheduling and discounts on repairs or parts. It’s a popular way for homeowners to ensure their AC stays in peak condition year-round, with no hassle.
Where in the Atlanta area do you provide air conditioning service?
We mostly serve the entire metro Atlanta area and many of the surrounding communities. This includes the city of Atlanta and suburbs like Alpharetta, Brookhaven, Decatur, Marietta, Roswell, Sandy Springs, Smyrna, and more. If you’re in the greater Atlanta region, there’s a good chance we cover your neighborhood. If you don’t see your city listed, just give us a call — you’re probably in our service area too.
Do you provide air conditioner installation? What does the process involve?
Yes, we offer high-quality AC installation and replacement services. Our process starts with careful planning — we perform a detailed load calculation to determine the right size unit for your home. During installation, our experienced team installs the equipment to exact specifications with no cut corners, and then a senior team member performs a quality-control audit to ensure everything was done perfectly. We handle the entire process, including removing your old unit and making sure your new system runs flawlessly before we finish.
What makes PV Heating, Cooling & Plumbing different from other HVAC companies?
We’re a local, family-owned company founded by three brothers right here in Atlanta, and we do things differently. Since starting in 2008, we’ve focused on doing the job the right way without cutting corners or upselling unnecessary services​. Our team is highly trained and customer-focused, and it shows – we have thousands of 5-star reviews and a 99% customer recommendation rate​. With PV, you get honest advice, quality workmanship, and a team that truly cares about your home’s comfort.
Are your technicians certified and background-checked?
Yes. We carefully background-check and screen our team members because we know you’re trusting us in your home. When a PV technician arrives, you can be confident you’re getting a skilled professional who respects you and your property.
How often should I have my air conditioner serviced?
We recommend a professional air conditioning tune-up once a year (and another visit in the fall for your heater). Having your AC inspected and serviced annually — typically in the spring — is the best way to keep it running efficiently and reliably. Regular yearly maintenance lowers your energy costs, helps prevent breakdowns during the hot summer months, and can prolong the life of your AC. It also keeps your manufacturer’s warranty intact on newer systems.
Do you use subcontractors, or are all technicians in-house?
We only use our own in-house technicians. We do not hire subcontractors to perform work for us​. When you schedule with PV, the person who shows up will be a trained PV employee who adheres to our high standards. This ensures consistent quality and accountability on every job.
My AC is new — do I still need maintenance?
Yes, even new air conditioning systems benefit from regular maintenance. A new AC will run great out of the box, but annual tune-ups keep it running at peak efficiency and help prevent early issues from developing. Plus, many manufacturer warranties require routine maintenance to remain valid. By servicing your new unit each year, you protect that coverage and ensure your AC stays in great shape long after the first year.
Can I get a free estimate for a new air conditioner installation?
Yes, we provide free estimates for new AC installations or system replacements. If you’re considering upgrading your air conditioning, just contact us to schedule an in-home consultation. We’ll evaluate your home’s cooling needs, answer your questions, and then give you a no-obligation quote for the recommended solution. We’re also happy to provide a free second opinion if you already have a quote from another company.
Will a bigger air conditioner cool my house better?
No — bigger is not better when it comes to AC units. An oversized air conditioner will cool the air quickly but won’t run long enough to remove sufficient humidity. This can leave your home cool but clammy, and the constant starting and stopping wears out the system faster. Air conditioners work best with longer, steady run cycles. That’s why we focus on installing an AC that is properly sized, rather than simply the largest unit.
What does an AC tune-up include?
During an AC tune-up, we perform a comprehensive maintenance checklist on your cooling system. This includes cleaning the outdoor condenser coil, flushing the condensate drain line, and inspecting the indoor coil. We also check refrigerant levels, electrical connections, motors, and fans to ensure everything is within proper range. Essentially, we give your air conditioner a top-to-bottom checkup and cleaning so it operates at its best.
How do I choose the right size air conditioner for my home?
You don’t have to — we take care of that through proper engineering. Our team will perform a professional load calculation on your home to determine the correct AC size. Getting the size right is critical: an air conditioner that’s too small won’t cool well, and one that’s too large will short-cycle and waste energy. We make sure you get an AC that’s “just right” for your home’s square footage, layout, and insulation, so you stay comfortable without higher bills or humidity issues.
How often should I change my AC’s air filter?
It depends on the type of filter and your household, but generally you should check your filter every month and change it every 1 to 3 months. Standard disposable filters usually need replacing about every 30 days. Higher-quality pleated filters might last around three months, and some larger media filters can go 6–12 months. If you have pets, allergies, or a lot of dust, you may need to change filters more often. Keeping a clean filter in your AC is one of the simplest ways to ensure good airflow and performance.
What are your business hours? Are you available on weekends?
Our regular business hours are Monday through Sunday, 7:00 AM to 8:30 PM. We understand HVAC problems can happen anytime, so we’re available even on Saturdays and Sundays. You can reach us by phone any day of the week during those hours for air conditioning needs, and you can also schedule your appointment online 24/7. If you have an emergency, call right away — we’ll most likely be able to see you that day.
My energy bills are very high in summer. Can PV help make my AC more efficient?
Yes, we can certainly help. High bills often mean your AC or home isn’t as efficient as it could be. We can do a maintenance check to make sure your AC is running optimally – for example, cleaning coils, checking refrigerant levels, and ensuring the blower and filters are in good shape. We might also look at your home’s insulation or ductwork for issues, because sometimes cooling losses or heat gain in the house make your AC work overtime​. In some cases, if your system is very old or undersized/oversized, upgrading to a new high-efficiency unit can significantly lower your cooling costs. We’ll help identify the best steps to keep you cool for less.
Do you offer HVAC design consulting for air conditioning systems?
Yes. We have an HVAC design consulting team dedicated to ensuring your system is perfectly tailored to your home’s needs. Whether you’re building an addition or want to resolve long-term comfort issues, our experts can perform load calculations, design proper ductwork, and recommend the right equipment. This consulting ensures your AC system provides optimal comfort and efficiency for the long haul.
