Common AC Issues We Solve

From strange noises to complete system failures, the experts at King Heating, Cooling & Plumbing are ready to provide ac repair in Chicago.

save-on-ac-repair

AC not cooling

AC running but house still warm? Could be refrigerant or airflow.

Chicago summers push AC systems hard. If your home stays muggy and warm even with the AC running, you likely have a refrigerant leak, dirty evaporator coils, or a failing compressor. Call King for a same-day diagnosis.

AC blowing warm air

AC blowing warm air instead of cold? Your system needs attention.

Check that your thermostat is set to COOL — if it is and you’re still getting warm air, the culprit is usually a refrigerant leak, failed compressor, or tripped breaker on the outdoor unit. King can typically diagnose and fix this in one visit.

cracked-condensate-pipe

AC leaking water

Water leak near your AC unit? It’s probably a clogged drain line.

Condensate drain clogs are especially common during Chicago’s humid summers when your system runs constantly. Left untreated, it leads to water damage and mold. Call King and we’ll clear the line and check for any underlying issues.

AC-Repair-1

AC making noise

Is your AC banging, squealing, or rattling? Don’t ignore it.

Banging usually means a loose component; squealing points to a worn belt or bearing. Chicago’s freeze-thaw cycles are tough on AC hardware — a small noise today can become a costly repair tomorrow. Call King before it gets worse.

AC not turning on

AC won’t start? Check your breaker first — then call us.

If resetting the breaker doesn’t help, the issue is likely a failed capacitor, bad contactor, or tripped safety switch — all common after a long Chicago winter. King’s trucks are stocked with the most common parts for same-day repairs.

I was so glad that Brandon was able to fit me in to unclog my bathtub drain. He arrived within the time frame and even called before coming to the house to reconfirm. He was also very friendly and personable. I will be using this company for future projects.

Had additional work done last week and I am happy that I chose this company again! Eric and Tyler were just as personable as Brandon when he came out last year. They didn’t mind all of my questions as well as my constantly apologizing for being in their way. LOL! Both gentlemen were thorough
and took pride in their work. After all repairs were completed, they even thoroughly cleaned up. I will definitely use this company again and will refer them when possible.

Roscoe Hardeman
I was very impressed with Nick. He was incredibly helpful and patient and provided excellent information regarding my water heater. He exceeded my expectations for professionalism and "down-to-earth" friendliness. He inspired trust and confidence.

I will definitely call on him again for my next service call.
Not to be forgotten was the excellent service and attention to detail.

Sincerely
Roscoe
Prompt, professional, truly 5-star service. The technicians were not only friendly but also incredibly careful and methodical throughout the installation. The new furnace — and the quality of the installation — looks like a piece of art compared to our old unit that failed. I had originally contacted one of King’s major competitors, and their price wasn’t even close. From now on, I’ll be calling King for all of our service needs!

Featured Review of King Heating, Cooling & Plumbing by Brian W. on Google

Jordan came and gave us an estimate on Monday, July 8, 2024. He explained the issues that were being caused by our current heating and cooling systems within our home. The system that came with our home had went out two weeks prior and the home warranty was jerking us around. However, King Heating, Cooling and Plumbing didn’t do that from the estimate to installation. They walked us through the permit requirements for our village and the installation of our new furnace and ac was installed on Wednesday, July 10, 2024. Thank you for helping us make the right investment and decision for our home. Thank you for the excellent customer service and professionalism. Jordan is awesome! We are pleased and finally back cool!
