How this service works

You pay only the contractor you choose, for work you approve, at the price they quote. We are paid a referral fee by our call network — never by you — and we are not a contractor and do not perform repairs. Read the full details →

If your AC just quit — do this first

If you see ice on the unit or smell burning, set the thermostat to OFF — running it can cause more damage.
Check your electrical panel for a tripped breaker labeled AC, condenser, or compressor. Reset it once; if it trips again, leave it off and call a professional.
Replace a dirty air filter — a clogged filter is the single most common cause of weak cooling.
Never handle refrigerant yourself; U.S. EPA rules restrict it to certified technicians.
If you smell gas or suspect carbon monoxide, leave the home and call 911 or your gas utility immediately.

Local notes

Boulder and the north Denver metro see sharp Front Range temperature swings and strong high-altitude sun, and the area's mix of older housing stock and newer efficient builds means cooling needs vary widely block to block. Colorado has no statewide HVAC license — mechanical permits and inspections are handled locally — so it's worth confirming any contractor pulls the correct Boulder County or municipal permit and is insured.

Good to know

Is the call free?

Yes. Calling is free and there's no obligation. You only ever pay the contractor you choose, for work you approve, at the price they quote you.

How fast can someone come out in Boulder?

Many calls can be scheduled same-day, and emergency availability runs around the clock. Exact timing depends on technician availability and demand in your area — the dispatcher will tell you honestly what's possible before you commit to anything.

How much does AC repair usually cost?

Nationally, a diagnostic visit typically runs $75–$150, common fixes like a capacitor or contactor replacement land around $150–$400, refrigerant recharges range $200–$600, and major repairs such as a compressor can reach $1,200–$2,500. Your contractor gives you an exact price before any work starts.

Should I repair or replace my AC?

A useful rule of thumb: if the system is more than 10–12 years old and the repair quote is over half the cost of a new unit, replacement usually wins on energy savings alone. Ask the contractor to walk you through both numbers.

Why is my AC running but not cooling?

The usual suspects are a clogged air filter, a refrigerant leak, frozen evaporator coils, a failing capacitor, or a tripped breaker on the outdoor unit. Some you can check yourself — see our guide below — but refrigerant and electrical work need a licensed pro.
