Mansfield, TX is a suburban city part of the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex area. The estimated population in 2020 is 73,550. CNN/Money Magazine placed our charming, little town at number 17 on 2014’s ‘Best Places to Live List.’ Residents know why the area is so high on this list!

It is partly due to the many amenities located nearby.

Texas has hot, muggy summers and mild winters which make the need for efficient and reliable air conditioning a necessity. These long hot summer days increase the risk of sunburns, sunstroke, and dehydration. Our placement on the “Best Places to Live” list would be in jeopardy without top-class air conditioning repair and maintenance.

Life without air conditioning is unimaginable for most people. That is why savvy locals turn to Minuteman Heating and Air for the best air conditioning repair and services.

When do you need an Air Conditioning Repair?

The absolute best way to avoid needing repairs is to have regular service. Changing the filters, repairing fins, cleaning the drain tube, and reinforcing insulation- these are just a few of the tasks undertaken by a detailed air conditioning service.

Here are a few of the warning signs that your AC needs air conditioning repair?

  • When You Switch It On, Nothing Works!

If you encounter the sound of silence after turning the air conditioning on, it could be a problem as simple as a blown fuse or a circuit breaker tripping. Check these first, otherwise, you may need an air conditioning repair.

  • Unusual Noises

Most air conditioners will make a low-level noise then they start up and shut down. But loud, rattling or buzzing noises can indicate serious problems with your cooling system. The problem could be a loose part or a more serious problem. Hoping the problem will go away is not the best way forward.

Call Minuteman Heating and Air and we’ll send one of our highly trained technicians around as soon as possible to sort your problem out.

  • Warm Air

On a hot day, you do not want warm air coming out of your vents. Inspect the thermostat to see if it is switched to the cooling position and at a lower temperature than what is currently in the room. If your vents still blow warm air, it could be due to restricted airflow or a compressor problem.

Did you know that the average home produces 40 pounds of dust annually? A built-up of dust could cause a blockage inhibiting air from moving through your homes’ ductwork. A clogged air filter, broken motor, or something even more severe might also be to blame.

Restricted airflow is the typical cause of a frozen evaporator coil. Do not attempt to operate the system until the coil has defrosted to avoid damage to the compressor.

We at Minuteman Heating and Air, recommend leaving air conditioning repairs to the experts. The air conditioner is a complicated piece of equipment and needs meticulous and specialized repairs and adjustments.

  • Bad Smells

Any burning and potent smells act as a warning that it is time to call Minuteman Heating and Air for a repair.

  • Water Leaks

Your air conditioner needs refrigerant to cool your home and may produce condensation as it operates. But pooled water surrounding an air conditioner is a strong indication that your air conditioning system isn’t running correctly. Leaks can quickly damage your property and may lead to severe structural issues. Don’t delay, consult a trained expert!

  • High Humidity

Your air conditioner should moderate humidity levels automatically. But if it can’t keep humidity levels inside a comfortable range, you may need an air conditioner repair. After quickly identifying the problem, we will let you know if your cooling system needs a simple re-calibration or if you ought to consider a whole-house dehumidifier.

Customer Reviews

“Just used Minuteman Heating and Air to fix my broken AC unit, they came out and fixed it straight away, and the repair cost was pretty good too. Would use them again!”

Susan Jones, Mansfield, TX, July 2020

“Minuteman was recommended to us. We had an old aircon system that was old and could no longer be re-gassed. We wanted something new and had no idea how to go about it without having to spend more money than we had to! The lady on the phone was very helpful and a site viewing was arranged very quickly. The quote was helpful and clear. The technicians were prompt, neat, and respectful of our working environment.

The whole process from start to finish was made easy and stress-free. We now have new units in our office that supply us with lovely cool temperatures. They very efficient and change the temperature quickly. We now have something that suits our needs precisely. We are extremely grateful to Minuteman!”
