Bad run capacitors and start capacitors failing in summer heat
Why it happens here
Capacitors degrade with heat, and Welcome summers push them past their limit. A bulging capacitor stops the compressor or condenser fan dead. It is the most common no-cool call we get in 29617 and 29611.
Our approach
We test capacitance with a multimeter and replace only what fails. Our trucks carry a full range of ratings, so this is usually a 30-minute fix for $180 to $260.
