Why Is My Air Conditioner Not Working?
We know you want answers to two things right away: What’s wrong—and how much will it cost to fix it? While we can’t give you an exact cost until we inspect the system, here’s what’s usually to blame:
- Low Refrigerant Levels: If your AC is blowing air but not cooling, low refrigerant is a likely cause. If there’s no major leak, a recharge is usually on the lower end of the cost scale—if we find a leak, we’ll walk you through your options.
- Failed Capacitor or Thermostat: When your AC won’t turn on at all, it’s often a bad capacitor or thermostat—both are fairly quick and affordable to replace. If it’s just one of these common parts, you’re probably looking at one of the less expensive repair visits.
- Clogged Air Filter or Dirty Coils: Dirty filters or coils reduce airflow and strain your system. These issues are some of the easiest (and cheapest) to fix.
- Electrical or Control Board Issues: Electrical problems or a faulty control board can be trickier to pinpoint. Sometimes it’s a loose connection or a sensor; other times, it’s a full control board replacement—which is one of the more expensive AC repairs.
When we arrive, we’ll talk with you about what’s been going on, run diagnostics, and show you exactly what we find. We’ll explain the next steps and the air conditioner repair costs upfront. No surprise here—just fair pricing and high-quality work you can trust.
Schedule Your Clairemont Air Conditioning Repair to Solve These Issues and More
Your air conditioner doesn’t have to completely stop working to need attention. Running a system that’s clearly struggling—cycling too often, blowing warm air, or making unusual sounds—is one of the worst things you can do.
If something feels off, something is wrong. Whether it’s a burning smell, a loud rattle, or your home just isn’t cooling as it should, Guthrie & Sons can help. Here are some of the most common air conditioning repairs in Clairemont and what our local air conditioning repair service will do next.
A Little Maintenance Now Will Save You a Lot Later
So many of our HVAC repair calls could have been avoided with routine maintenance of the system. When coils get dirty, filters clog, or refrigerant runs low, your system has to work harder—and that usually means higher energy bills, more wear and tear, and sudden breakdowns during heatwaves.
That’s why air conditioning manufacturers recommend annual AC maintenance. It gives AC companies like us a chance to catch small issues before they become expensive ones, clean things up, and make sure your system is ready for the higher temperatures. Your home and your wallet will feel the difference!

Real Reviews From Real Customers
We do things differently, and our customers appreciate it. See what some of our thousands of satisfied customers have to say about working with us.
Please congratulate them for a job well done!
We worked with Vlad T., who had previously been out to our home and saved us tens of thousands of dollars by getting our existing AC unit up and running when other companies were pushing for a full replacement. That experience alone earned our trust.
Now that we’re finally ready to purchase new units, there was no question that Guthrie & Sons was the only company we would consider, and Vlad was the obvious choice. He was extremely professional, punctual, and exceptionally knowledgeable, taking the time to explain options clearly and thoroughly. His expertise and honesty made the entire process straightforward and stress-free.
If you’re looking for an HVAC company you can truly trust—one that values integrity, quality workmanship, and customer service—I cannot recommend Guthrie & Sons and Vlad T. highly enough. This is how service should be done.
I only wish the annual service was cheaper 🙂
Zach M. came by and installed on new one. He was extremely professional and completed the installation promptly.
This was another great experience all around and I gladly recommend Guthrie and Son's for all your HVAC needs.
From start to finish, their team was outstanding. They worked incredibly hard, treated our home with respect, and left everything spotless—truly the cleanest job site I’ve ever seen after a major project. The installation itself was seamless, and the quality of their work shows in every detail.
If you’re looking for a company that combines deep knowledge, excellent craftsmanship, and genuine care for their customers, Guthrie & Sons is it. Absolutely five stars across the board!
What really stood out was his problem-solving ability and willingness to go the extra mile to ensure everything was operating as it should. He communicated clearly throughout the process, kept us updated, and made sure we felt confident in the work being done.
It’s not often you come across someone who combines technical expertise with such a strong work ethic and positive attitude. We’re very grateful for his efforts and would highly recommend Kareen to anyone needing reliable HVAC service.
Vlad came out to provide an estimate and was able to size an HVAC system that worked well for my house.
They installed it quickly, without issue and helped me set up an app on my phone to control.
The system is working great to heat and cool my house and is whisper quiet.
Highly recommend going with Guthrie and Sons if you want a high quality experience for large and important purchases.
