What Homeowners Call Us For

AC Repair & Furnace Repair in Des Moines

Two systems do most of the work in a typical home, and they're the two we repair most. Here's what to expect when you call.

AC Repair in Des Moines

Most air conditioner breakdowns trace back to one failed part: a weak capacitor, a burned contactor, a seized fan motor, or a slow refrigerant leak. We diagnose it with gauges and meters, not guesswork. You get a clear price before any work starts, and if the system is old enough that replacement makes more sense, we'll show you both numbers.

  • AC running but blowing warm air
  • Outdoor unit humming but not starting
  • Frozen coil or iced-over lines
  • Condensate backing up around the air handler
See how we handle AC repairs

Furnace Repair in Des Moines

Most furnace breakdowns come from a handful of parts: flame sensors, igniters, inducer motors, and control boards. We find the one that failed and fix it, usually in a single visit. We also check for the problems that matter for safety, like a cracked heat exchanger, and give you an upfront price before any work begins.

  • Furnace clicks but never lights
  • Burners light, then shut off within seconds
  • Blower running but the air isn't warm
  • New noises when the furnace kicks on

Common Problems

Recognize These HVAC Warning Signs?

Wondering if it's bad enough to call? These are the most common heating and cooling problems we fix in homes across the area.

AC Blowing Warm Air

Low refrigerant, a failed compressor start, or a dirty condenser can all masquerade as the same symptom. Real diagnosis beats parts-swapping every time.

AC repair

Furnace Won't Stay On

Frequent on-off cycling is the furnace protecting itself from a real problem. Ignoring it risks the heat exchanger, the most expensive part in the cabinet.

Furnace repair

Rising Bills, Weak Airflow

Weak airflow at the vents points to duct restrictions, a struggling blower, or high static pressure. A tune-up finds it before it kills the motor.

Maintenance & tune-ups

Old System, Repeat Repairs

A system past 12 to 15 years that needs a repair every season is telling you something. We'll give you the honest math on repair versus replacement.

System replacement

Dusty Air & Musty Smells

Your ducts move the same air thousands of times a day. Years of dust, dander, and construction debris ride along until they're cleaned out.

Air duct cleaning

Rooms That Never Get Comfortable

Additions and bonus rooms rarely get enough duct capacity. A dedicated ductless head fixes the problem permanently.

Our Customers Speak for Themselves

4.8 out of 5 · 150+ reviews

"We signed up for their maintenance plan a couple of years back and it has already paid for itself. On the fall tune-up they caught a weak igniter that would have left us with no heat in January, and replaced it on the spot. Best subscription we have."

YC
Yvonne C.
Des Moines, IA

"From the estimate to the final walkthrough, the whole install was clear and professional. The crew wore shoe covers, put down drop cloths, hauled off the old equipment, and the final bill matched the quote to the penny. The new system is so quiet we barely notice it running. I'd send anyone in Des Moines their way."

JL
Joan L.
Des Moines, IA

"The AC would run for hours and never hit the set temperature. Their tech pressure-tested the lines, fixed the leak, and weighed in the correct charge instead of just topping it off like the last guy. It has cooled perfectly ever since."

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Most air conditioner repairs in Des Moines run between $150 and $650, depending on the part. Common fixes like capacitors, contactors, and fan motors sit at the lower end, while compressor and refrigerant work costs more. If the system is beyond economical repair, full replacement typically ranges from $5,000 to $12,000 installed depending on size and efficiency. We diagnose first and give you a clear, upfront quote before any work begins.
A good rule of thumb: if the system is under 10 years old and the fix is a component, capacitor, motor, igniter, sensor, repair usually makes sense. If the compressor or heat exchanger has failed, the unit is past 12 to 15 years old, or repairs are stacking up season after season, replacement is the smarter investment. Our technicians walk you through both numbers honestly so you can decide with real information.
We offer same-day and emergency HVAC service throughout the Des Moines area. Our trucks carry the most common parts, capacitors, contactors, igniters, flame sensors, and universal motors, so the majority of repairs are completed in a single visit. Even full system replacements are usually scheduled within days, not weeks.
For many Des Moines homes, yes. Modern heat pumps heat and cool from a single system, run far more efficiently than electric resistance heat, and current models perform well even in cold weather. They cost more upfront than a basic AC swap, which is why we run the numbers on your actual usage and utility rates before recommending one.
Yes. Our technicians work on all major residential and commercial brands and system types, central air conditioners, gas and electric furnaces, heat pumps, packaged units, and ductless mini-splits. We carry universal parts on the truck and can source brand-specific components quickly when needed.
