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.

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 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? There are a few common causes — let us find it fast.

A failed capacitor, bad contactor, or tripped safety switch are the most common culprits — especially after a long Chicago winter. King’s trucks are stocked with the parts to fix it fast.

After 19 years, my furnace finally gave out. I kept up with my yearly clean and check but the blower motor was unrelenting and said no more. I knew it was going out a few years prior as a technician during a cleaning said it was at 80%. A furnace is a big expense. I had received other estimates a year prior and really didn’t want to take that on. I heard people say, I’m goin to ride it till the wheels fall off. Thats how I felt about that furnace, as long as it comes on, I’m going to turn it on, until that faithful day. I called King Heating and Cooling and they came out that same day for a FREE consultation.
Bobby was my salesman. He was absolutely wonderful. He didn’t try to sell me what I didn’t want or over price me as I was in dire need. It was 90 degrees outside and my house was hot. As some of you know, for some salesman, it’s a money grab! I started hearing the saxophones in my head, waiting for the BS, I promise you, he didn’t do it.
The price was fair, and cheaper than what I had previously been quoted by another company. My furnace was installed after waiting one day. The technician also connected the humidifier at no additional cost. From the 1st call to the installation, they were all timely, professional and polite. Respect is a 1000 and they gave it. King Heating and Cooling is a winner for me. South Suburbanites, call them, and save you some coins.
They replaced our a/c unit, earlier this month. They were prompt, professional and gave great service! I highly recommend them.
We unfortunately had to replace our furnace due to flooding from the storms July 4th weekend. King was super prompt, texted and called when the technician was on their way and was really wonderful to work with. They were patient with us and didn’t push anything even with us being in a desperate situation. They kept us updated throughout everything and installed our furnace in a timely matter. After 4 rough days, we were able to breathe a sigh of relief when our air conditioning was working again.

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!
