In Startup, WA heat, cooling problems don't get better on their own. Charge, compressor draw, and coil condition all get checked before we recommend a fix.
Topping off refrigerant without finding the leak is one of the most common ways Startup homeowners get overcharged. We pull pressures, check superheat and subcooling, and use electronic detection to find the actual leak, because a properly repaired leak outlasts three top-offs.
Non-negotiables on every cooling call.
Certification is required, not optional, and we take it seriously.
No-cool situations jump the schedule, especially in peak season.
The invoice matches the quote, no exceptions.
Real detection, not a temporary patch.
Trucks carry capacitors, contactors, and common refrigerant fittings.
