Why Is My AC Blowing Warm Air in Wake Forest?
The Problem
An Wake Forest homeowner noticed their air conditioning was blowing air, but it wasn't cold.
What We Found
Aaron and Dexter discovered that the wires for the compressor were burned up, the control board in the outdoor unit was damaged, and the system was low on refrigerant R22 due to a leak.
The Fix
Given the extent of the issues and the age of the unit, the homeowner decided to replace the entire system. Aaron and Dexter filed a claim with the homeowner's warranty provider to facilitate the replacement process.
The Result
The homeowner is set to receive a new air conditioning system, ensuring reliable cooling for the upcoming summer months.
Pro Tip
If your AC is blowing warm air, it might be low on refrigerant due to a leak. Address leaks promptly to avoid further damage and ensure efficient cooling.

Why Quality AC Installation Matters in Wake Forest
New Home Growth
Wake Forest's rapid residential growth means many homes under 10 years old with builder-grade HVAC systems that may need upgrades or replacements sooner than expected. We help homeowners transition from builder systems to quality upgrades.
Peak Summer Demand
Summer heat and humidity in northern Wake County creates high cooling demands, especially in newer neighborhoods with minimal tree cover. Proper system sizing and maintenance is critical for reliable performance.
Multi-Zone Systems
Many new neighborhoods feature larger homes with multiple HVAC zones requiring sophisticated system design and maintenance. Our technicians specialize in multi-zone system optimization and troubleshooting.
Local Codes
Local building codes require specific HVAC sizing calculations and permits for installations. We ensure all work meets Wake Forest and Wake County requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions About AC Installation in Wake Forest
Answered by our licensed technicians serving Wake Forest
How long does an AC installation take?
Most residential AC installations are completed in a single day, typically 6-10 hours. If significant ductwork modifications, electrical upgrades, or a complete system changeout (indoor and outdoor units) is required, the project may extend to two days.
What SEER rating should I choose for my new AC?
For the Raleigh-Durham area, we generally recommend 16 SEER2 or higher. The hot, humid Triangle summers mean your AC runs extensively, so higher-efficiency systems pay for themselves faster here than in milder climates. We'll show you a cost-benefit comparison for different efficiency levels.
Do I need to replace my furnace when I replace my AC?
Not always, but it's often recommended. Your indoor coil and blower are part of the heating system, and mismatched components reduce efficiency and can void warranties. We'll evaluate your existing equipment and give you honest advice on what actually needs replacing.
What brands do you install?
We install and service all major brands including Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Rheem, Goodman, and Amana. We'll recommend the best option based on your budget, efficiency goals, and the specific needs of your home rather than pushing any single brand.
