Aurora, CO · condenser service
Per repair type
The range for each fix.
Parts and labor included, standard residential central AC. Your written quote lands inside the range — or we explain why before you approve anything.
| Repair | Aurora range | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Diagnostic / service call | TBD | Full diagnosis + written quote; credited toward repair if approved. |
| Capacitor replacement | TBD | Unit hums but won't start — the #1 summer call. |
| Contactor replacement | TBD | Chattering or welded contacts; often replaced with the capacitor. |
| Condensate drain clearing | TBD | Water pooling or the float switch killing the system. |
| Thermostat replacement | TBD | Standard programmable; smart installs on our thermostat page. |
| Refrigerant recharge + leak search | TBD | Recharge with a leak search — never without. See below. |
| Condenser fan motor | TBD | Outdoor unit not spinning; system overheats and shuts off. |
| Blower motor (air handler) | TBD | "It kicks on, but it doesn't blow air" — usually this. |
| Evaporator / condenser coil | TBD | Major repair — compare against replacement. |
| Compressor replacement | TBD | The big one — often means replacement wins. We'll do the math with you. |
The Freon question
"It looks like it needs some Freon."
We hear this exact sentence every summer — it's one of the most common things callers say. Here's the honest version:
Refrigerant doesn't get "used up." It's a sealed system. If your AC is low, there is a leak — and a recharge without finding the leak is money you'll spend again next summer.
- We leak-search every recharge — electronic detection, not guesswork
- Refrigerant is charged by the pound, weighed on a scale, on your invoice
- Small leak + young system? Seal it, recharge, done.
- Big leak + old system? We'll tell you when replacement beats another recharge.

How much does a Freon / refrigerant recharge cost?
TBD depending on refrigerant type and how many pounds the system needs. And remember: low refrigerant means a leak — we find it before we recharge, every time.
My AC keeps shutting off after 45 minutes. What will that cost?
That's one of the most common urgent calls we get — usually a capacitor, a frozen coil from low refrigerant, or a failing fan motor. Diagnosis is TBD; the repair lands in the ranges above.
Is it worth repairing a 15-year-old AC?
Sometimes — a capacitor on a 15-year-old unit is still cheap money. But a compressor on one isn't. We'll give you the repair quote and the replacement math side by side and let the numbers decide.
