How much does a residential AC fix cost near Elgin?

The average cost of repairing an air conditioner is $336. The usual range is $163-$520, with repairs costing as much as $1100 at the high end.

Certain repairs will also be more pricey than usual. Replacing a residential air compressor, for example, can cost between $1350 and $1800, while replacing an evaporator coil can cost between $650 and $1200.

In some cases, it may make more sense to replace the air conditioner. Your HVAC professional will be able to advise you on the best solution for your Elgin area home.

Should I repair or replace my home air conditioner?

Many HVAC professionals will use the $5,000 guideline when making this decision. Simply multiply the repair expenses by the air conditioner's age. If the resulting number is greater than $5,000, it may be better to replace your unit.

As an example:

If your repairs cost $500 and your unit is 5 years old, your total cost would be $2,500. It would make sense in this scenario to fix your system.

If your repairs cost $900 and your unit is 10 years old, your total cost will be $9,000. It would make sense in this instance to replace rather than pay for a repair. 

Your HVAC technician will also advise you on the most cost-effective solution for your home.

How much does a new AC unit typically cost near Elgin?

A central air conditioner unit installation costs between $3,200 to $7,800 on average for residences. The main elements influencing the cost of an AC unit are the square footage of your home, the preferred brand and the SEER ratings you select. A 2.5 ton AC unit would be ideal for a 1,300 to 1,600 square foot home, and the typical installation cost would be approximately $3,570, with the unit alone costing around $1,285.

A skilled HVAC expert will be able to perform an AC load calculation to determine the size you need, then present you with several options that meet your budget and comfort needs.

Short summary is difficult! Mr. Varn greeted me with a smile and a handshake and then petted the dog! Everything that he did was explained and picture
I was so pleased with the service from Mr. Varn and Carolina Conditions. We decided to have our dryer vent checked out for excess lint. He cleaned and vacuumed the hose ...it really needed to be cleaned! Thank you, Mr. Varn, for a job well done and for being so nice to us.

Excellent troubleshooting - went the extra mile to fix units
Vince did an exceptional job diagnosing and repairing my mini-splits. I had been having reoccurring problems with my NEW system for over 2 years that no one else seemed to be able to figure out. Vince came and put extra effort into understanding the system and the problems I was having, then went even further to research and discuss with other professionals. To my delight, he was able to find a solution to the problems that were causing my units to quit working and one that was leaking down my wall. He came back and clearly explained what had been happening, he and Mike replaced the water pumps in several of the units, fixed some wiring, leveled the units so they would drain properly, and correct a water flow issue that relied on gravity flow in portions of the system. He even took the time to look at a ceiling light that had quit working when the system was installed and figured out what was happening with it. Vince was professional and polite during all the visits, listened to my concerns, was honest regarding problems that he was seeing, and didn't give up on finding the resolution. Vince and Mike worked quickly to implement the repairs and solutions, and cleaned everything up before leaving. Both Vince and Mike were professional and polite. A great job done. I highly recommend both Vince and Mike!
Denise - Elgin, SC 29045
Above & beyond in customer service
Courtney provided excellent customer service while cleaning my dryer vent today. He’s very personable, pays attention to detail & has a can-do attitude. Most importantly he went above & beyond after he noticed a wasp nest in a separate vent. He took the time to take care of the nest ensuring that my home & family were protected from being attacked by wasps.

Expert, Honest and Friendly Service
Thank you for taking your time and being so thorough; and for offering suggestions to help keep the unit optimally functioning. I am so grateful and amazed at how you even went above and beyond what was needed and tightened up my attic door to fit right when it is closed. I'm sure that will even help keep the heat in the attic and the rest of my house comfortable. I highly recommend and will tell others about Carolina Conditions.

Arrived to perform a two system maintenance. Found the furnaces and coils are located in the attic. The upstairs system was found with the blower motor detached on one leg and the others bent at 75* angle. The motor legs were able to be straightened, however are weak. The motor will need to be replaced with an Oem motor. Systems other wise are operating properly. Recommend to replace blower motor for the upstairs system.

Dispatched to clients residence to inspect two frost free hose bib installations that are defective. Hose bibs failed, leaking from several different locations. I removed them and installed regular hose bibs per the customers request. I tested and inspected them both without and with water pressure to ensure the proper function. They are operating as directed by the manufacturer and should give the client no future problems. Thank you for choosing Carolina Conditions.

Upon arrival: customers water main is leaking around meter box an immense amount. I discussed with husband over the phone the estimate to excavate, repair the 3/4”- 1” PVC water up to 2’ and test for operation. Husband declined to have work performed today due to price. No further issues at this time. Customer is relaying estimate to contractor who installed their new pool because they claim they are at fault for the breakage at the water meter.

I thoroughly cleaned the dryer vent using a mechanical cable brush and performed before and after airflow measurements and everything is running well. (The primary issue was that the vent termination had fallen off from the exhaust cover on the outside. The vent was then blocked by the exterior wall after it had fallen. I properly placed the pipe back into the exhaust cover.) thank you for using Carolina Conditions!
