Life never stops moving, and these days things are busier than ever. The last thing anyone wants is to come home on a blisteringly hot day to find the temperature inside their home matches the searing heat outside. Whether it's servicing your system to make sure it's ready to go as temperatures climb or fixing it properly when something's gone wrong, Garner Heating & Air Conditioning is there when you need us. Plus, we can take a look at your existing system and offer solutions to your ductwork and filtering to ensure you're getting the best indoor air quality. At Garner, we take care of your system top to bottom and inside-out.
Your air conditioner capacitor is the device that provides your unit with the initial power boost it needs to cycle on. It also supplies power to the AC that allows the unit to complete a cooling cycle. Some signs that your capacitor may not be working include:
- The air conditioner will either not turn on or take a while to start after you turn it on.
- The unit is not blowing cold air.
- There is a humming noise coming from the AC.
- The unit keeps shutting down.
Do you suspect a bad AC capacitor? Garner Heating & Air Conditioning can help! We provide accurate and reliable AC repair services at competitive prices. Contact us today to learn more!
On average, you can expect your AC unit to last between 10 - 15 years. To prolong the life of your unit, make sure to:
- Have it serviced regularly - Maintenance service has been shown to not only help central air conditioning systems last longer, but also run more efficiently and ward off future breakdowns.
- Run it reasonably - Our Texas summers can be brutal. However, if the temperature hits over a hundred degrees outside, trying to cool your home to 60 degrees will put undue stress on the unit and shorten its working life.
- Change filters on time - Changing the air filters in your home helps your AC run more smoothly by allowing air to circulate easier. New air filters also collect more dust and dirt that will prevent extra debris from getting into the system.
To learn more, contact the experts at Garner Heating & Air Conditioning today! We offer professional AC installation services guaranteed to keep you and your family cool for years to come.
On average, the repair cost to replace an AC capacitor runs around $300 - $400 for a professional technician to complete. You can expect the job to take between 1 - 2 hours.
For a more accurate estimate, Garner Heating & Air Conditioning can help! We offer “Peace Of Mind” pricing, which means we provide the price before doing the repair and never add an additional charge on top of it. Contact us today to learn more!

Along with improving your system’s efficiency and helping your units to last longer, regular HVAC maintenance can find any problems your heating and cooling systems may be having and can help to prevent future problems from occurring. HVAC systems need to be serviced once a year. Typically, it’s ideal to have your AC serviced in the Spring and your heater serviced in the Fall. This way, you can rest assured that your HVAC systems will last you through the months you’ll use them the most.

HVAC systems typically last around 15-20 years before they’ll need to be replaced, but you can help to extend their useful life by having them properly maintained. However, they may need to be replaced sooner if they break down frequently or lose efficiency. Some common signs you may need to have your HVAC systems replaced soon include:
- Higher energy bills.
- The cost to have your HVAC unit repaired is more than half the cost of a new unit.
- Uneven temperatures in your home.
- Loud noises coming from the unit.
- Unpleasant odors coming from your HVAC system.

Service
Fowler - Driftwood, TX 78619
Not being an air conditioner repair person I have to take the technician’s word that they did a great job. I thought some of the prices he quoted was way out of the ball park. Thought Mr Torres was a pleasant guy and courteous.

Elijah D.
On arrival, I inspected the outdoor heat pump unit. I found that the run capacitor has failed across the FAN terminals and is undervalued on the HERM terminals as well. I installed a new run capacitor and tested the cooling system. Verified the system was operating as designed and was cooling the interior of home.
Elijah D.
Upstairs HVAC System: On arrival I inspected the upstairs system drain line and verified it was clean and clear. I next inspected the electrical systems of the outdoor unit and found the run capacitor to have failed below value across all terminals. Audibly heard the outdoor compressor attempting to start but since the run capacitor had failed it was unable to turn on and pump refrigerant throughout the indoor cooling coils. Recommend replacing the run capacitor to return the system back to operational. Installed new run capacitor under Carrier Manufacturer Parts Warranty and verified system startup. Inspected all Performance, Mechanical and Safety Systems. Everything is working at this time. Upstairs interior home temperature was upwards of 95° and I did inform the homeowner that the system would be running for most, or all, of the day for the temperature to drop to setpoint inside the home.
Elijah D.
Kitchen/Laundry Room HVAC System: On arrival, I found the run capacitor of the outdoor unit has failed across the HERM terminals resulting in the compressor not turning on to pump refrigerant. I installed a new run capacitor and tested the system. Verified all Performance, Mechanical and Safety Systems are operating within manufacture’s specifications for operation. Supply plenum had a temperature of 53°. While on site, we secured the high voltage compressor plugs, at no additional charge, and strapped down to insulation to help prevent a rub out of the refrigerant lines. Also removed a small amount of leaves from the bottom of the condenser to help prevent rusting out of the base of unit. Everything is working at this time.
Elijah D.
On arrival, I found the emergency water safety switch tripped due to a restricted primary drain line. I cleared the drain line and poured water down the drain. Once completed, I cleared the drain again until I noticed the restriction was clean and clear. I treated the primary drain line and removed the existing overfill water from the emergency water safety switch. I reset the cooling system and inspected all Performance, Mechanical and Safety Systems. Verified everything was operating within manufacture’s specifications for operation. Everything is working at this time.

System was running at the time of departure.
