Air Conditioning in New Orleans: what's different

Air Conditioning work in New Orleans follows the local climate. In hot-humid climates the air conditioner removes moisture as well as heat, so refrigerant charge, airflow and a clear condensate drain matter as much as raw capacity. Oversized systems short-cycle and leave rooms clammy.

A common New Orleans pattern: mold. High humidity promotes mold in ducts and air handlers. Another: raised-home ductwork. Ducts under raised homes are exposed to humidity and pests, so insulation and sealing matter.

The air conditioning services New Orleans homeowners ask for most are AC Repair, AC Replacement & Installation. Warm air, no cooling, short cycling, noises and breaker trips.

The City of New Orleans Department of Safety and Permits issues mechanical permits, and the Historic District Landmarks Commission may review visible exterior equipment in historic districts. Schedule maintenance before hurricane season and inspect equipment after any flooding.

How do I know if my AC needs repair or replacement?+

Age, refrigerant type and the failed part decide it. A newer system with a bad capacitor or fan motor is a repair. An older R-22 system with a failed compressor or leaking coil is usually a replacement.

Why is my AC running but not cooling?+

Common causes are a dirty filter or coil, low refrigerant from a leak, a failed outdoor fan or capacitor, or a frozen indoor coil. Turn the system off if you see ice and call for a diagnosis.
