Question 1

Does homeowners insurance cover AC repair?

Accepted Answer

Generally, homeowners insurance only pays for damage caused to your home, which means that AC repairs are often not covered.

However, if your AC was damaged because of a sudden covered event listed in your policy, such as lightning strikes, hail, wind, or tree damage, you may be covered.

Call your insurance company to confirm your policy’s details about what events are covered and which aren’t. At Earl’s Plumbing & Air, we’ll provide top-notch service whether you’re working with your insurance company or paying out of pocket. With upfront estimates and financing options for larger projects, we’re always here to help our customers in West Texas get the repairs they need!

Can you fix an AC on your own?

Accepted Answer

Question 3

Why is my AC running but not cooling?

Accepted Answer

There are several reasons why your AC unit may be in need of repair. A few of the most common causes for AC repairs in Lubbock are:

-Lack of maintenance: Contrary to popular belief, seasonal AC tune-ups aren’t just something HVAC techs made up to get extra business. Regular maintenance is actually an essential part of keeping your system healthy year-round! If you haven’t had your AC checked in a year or longer, call Earl’s Plumbing & Air.
-Summer stress/heat load: High heat means more work for your central air conditioning. As it works harder to get to your desired comfort level, wear and tear accumulates faster. That’s another reason your air conditioner’s maintenance is so important.
-Lack of proper insulation: The line set on your AC’s outdoor compressor should be properly insulated with foam. This insulation helps keep the line cool when refrigerant is returning to the compressor and condenser, and every degree counts!
-Electronic failure or malfunction: loose connections, shorts in the wiring, tripped circuit breakers, or broken capacitors can all lead to AC failure.
