We know Conway’s lake-chain neighborhoods well, from the older CBS ranches along Lake Conway to the mid-century homes near Lake Jessamine and the established streets around Lake Gatlin. Our technicians are dispatched from our Miami office, with crews already working in the Orlando metro area and ready to head your direction. When your system quits in July humidity, you don’t want to explain your neighborhood to someone reading a map. You want someone who already knows that Curry Ford Road backs up every afternoon, and that a crew coming from the east needs to account for it.

Why Brandt HVAC Is Conway’s Preferred AC Repair Company
We’ve built our reputation in Conway on one thing that matters more than speed or price: certainty about who walks through your door. Every technician is background-checked and identity-verified through our Threshold Verified standard. Before anyone arrives at your Conway home, you get a name, photo, and introduction by text. At the door, they show a photo ID badge. If someone shows up who you weren’t told to expect, that visit is on us and we make it right.
Conway homeowners have told us this matters here. Many of you are home alone during the day, or you’re parents with young kids, or you’re older and no longer comfortable opening the door to a stranger without knowing exactly who to expect. We built our whole process around you.
Every repair starts with a written price before any work begins. Every repair includes a written guarantee, and if it fails within 365 days, we return at no charge under our 365-Day Done Right Promise. That’s not a slogan. It’s printed on every invoice.
Our crews know Conway’s housing stock. The concrete block ranches built from the 1950s through the 1970s. The hot attics where original ductwork still runs. The Florida rooms that got enclosed and tied into systems never designed for them. This local knowledge means faster diagnosis and repairs that actually fix the root problem, not just the symptom.
Emergency AC Repair in Conway
Emergency AC Repair in Conway means a failed system when outdoor temperatures are in the 90s and indoor humidity is climbing fast. In these conditions, a broken AC isn’t just uncomfortable. For older residents, young children, or anyone with respiratory conditions, it becomes a genuine health risk. We treat these calls as urgent. Our live dispatchers answer around the clock, and we prioritize Conway emergency calls based on safety factors like household age and medical needs.
Emergency AC repair in Conway runs $150 – $650, same as standard repair pricing. We don’t charge overtime premiums for nights, weekends, or holidays. The price you see in writing before work starts is the price you pay.
What Counts as an Emergency
A completely dead system on a day above 90 degrees. A burning smell from the air handler. Refrigerant leaking indoors. These situations get immediate attention. If your system is running but struggling, we may schedule you for same-day non-emergency service rather than charging emergency rates.
What Happens When You Call
A live person answers. They ask about your symptoms, your address in Conway, and who is home. They check technician availability and give you a real arrival window, not “sometime this afternoon.” You’ll get your technician’s name and photo before they head your way.
AC Not Blowing Cold Air in Conway
AC Not Blowing Cold Air is the most common call we get from Conway homeowners, and it’s rarely just one thing. In this climate, with this housing stock, the symptom usually points to multiple interacting problems. Our diagnostic process checks electrical components, refrigerant charge, airflow balance, and condensate drainage before we recommend any repair.
Fixing an AC not blowing cold air in Conway typically runs $150 – $650. A failed capacitor might land at the lower end. A refrigerant leak with coil corrosion from years of lake humidity pushes toward the higher end. We give you the written price before touching tools.
Electrical vs. Refrigerant Failures
Capacitors fail in Florida heat. It’s predictable. We test them first because it’s fast and definitive. Refrigerant issues take longer to diagnose properly. We don’t just “top it off.” We find the leak, explain your options, and give you a price for the real fix versus a temporary charge.
Airflow Problems in Older Homes
Conway’s 1960s and 1970s CBS ranches often have ductwork that wasn’t designed for modern cooling loads. Add a converted Florida room tapped into the original trunk, and your system can’t move enough air to satisfy the thermostat no matter how cold the refrigerant gets. We measure static pressure and check every takeoff.
Trusted Brands We Service in Conway
We repair Trane, Lennox, Goodman, and Rheem systems daily in Conway, and we service all major residential HVAC brands including Carrier, York, Daikin, Bryant, and American Standard. Our trucks carry common capacitors, contactors, and refrigerant for the brands we see most often in this market. For less common parts, our Miami office coordinates same-day or next-morning pickup. We don’t make you wait three days for a control board because we didn’t plan ahead. When we diagnose your system, we check parts availability immediately and tell you exactly when we can complete the repair.
Common AC Repair Problems We See in Conway Homes
- Lake-chain humidity destroying evaporator coils. Conway’s position among Lake Conway, Lake Gatlin, and Lake Jessamine creates a microclimate with persistently elevated dew points. We regularly find evaporator coils corroded and clogged with biological growth that inland Orange County systems simply don’t experience at the same rate.
- Original ductwork leaking in hot attics. Those 1950s – 1970s CBS ranches have flex duct or fiberglass board running through attic spaces that reach 140 degrees. The seals fail. The insulation compresses. Your system loses 20 – 30% of its cooling before it ever reaches your living room.
- Florida-room conversions starving the main house. We see this constantly. Someone enclosed a back porch, ran a 6-inch flex duct from the original trunk, and called it conditioned space. Now the air handler runs all day and the master bedroom never cools because the takeoff is undersized and the static pressure is wrong.
- Condensate lines clogging from constant moisture load. Conway’s humidity means drain pans never fully dry. Algae and biofilm build up fast. We clear the clog, treat the pan, and check the trap design so it doesn’t happen again next month.

FAQs About AC Repair in Conway
Your AC in Conway struggles with humidity because the lake-chain microclimate keeps dew points higher than inland Orange County, and many local systems are oversized for the actual load. An oversized unit short-cycles, cooling the air quickly but never running long enough to wring out moisture. We check your Manual J sizing and often find that a smaller, properly specced system with longer run times controls humidity far better than a bigger unit. Call (984) 538-9003 for an assessment – estimates are free.
The rest of your house is hot because the converted Florida room was likely tied into your original supply trunk with an undersized takeoff, which starves the main living areas of airflow. We see this constantly in Conway’s 1970s CBS ranches. The air handler runs and runs, but the static pressure is wrong and the thermostat never satisfies. We measure airflow at each register and rebalance the duct system so every room gets what it needs. Call (984) 538-9003 for a diagnostic – estimates are free.
Yes, a weak or failed capacitor is one of the most common AC failures we see in Conway, especially during summer heat waves when electrical components work hardest. The capacitor gives your compressor and fan motor the startup jolt they need; when it degrades, the system may hum without starting or shut down intermittently. We test capacitors on every service call because it’s a cheap, fast fix when caught early. Call (984) 538-9003 if your system is struggling to start – estimates are free.
No, you should not swap your old Conway AC for a same-size new one without a proper load calculation and duct assessment first. Conway’s older homes have original ductwork that may be leaky or undersized, and many have Florida-room additions that changed the load profile. A like-for-like swap often disappoints because the new system is fighting the same airflow problems that made the old one seem inadequate. We run Manual J calculations and test static pressure before recommending any replacement. Call (984) 538-9003 for a proper evaluation – estimates are free.
Conway humidity causes more condensate line clogs because the lake-chain geography keeps dew points elevated even when the broader Orlando metro feels drier, so your drain pan never fully dries between cycles. That constant moisture feeds algae and biofilm growth, which sludge up the line and overflow the pan. We clear clogs with nitrogen pressure or mechanical snakes, then treat the pan and check trap design to slow recurrence. Call (984) 538-9003 if your system is leaking water – estimates are free.
