Air Handler & Blower Motor Repairin Kendall, FL
Repair of the indoor unit: blower motors, control boards, heat strips and leaking cabinets.
Air Handler & Blower Motor Repair for Kendall buildings
Homes in West Kendall sit close to the Everglades, where humidity and afternoon storms are heavier than on the coast. Clogged condensate drains, lightning-damaged capacitors and control boards are the calls we see most out here. A surge protector and a float switch are inexpensive protection on any system in the area.
The air handler is the indoor half of the system. It holds the blower that moves air through the house, the evaporator coil, the electric heat strips and the control board. When it fails, the outdoor unit may keep running while nothing comes out of the vents.
Air handlers in garages and closets also suffer from humidity: rusted drain pans, wet insulation and mould growth inside the cabinet are common in South Florida.
Air handler problems we fix
- No air, or very weak air, from the vents
- Squealing, grinding or rattling from the indoor unit
- The blower never shuts off
- Water leaking from the cabinet
- Burning smell or a tripped breaker
Our process
- We test the blower motor, capacitor, control board and safety switches.
- We inspect the coil, pan and cabinet for leaks, rust and microbial growth.
- You receive a written price, and we repair with a matching OEM or universal part.
Air Handler & Blower Motor Repair in Kendall: questions
Can the air handler be replaced without replacing the outdoor unit?
Sometimes, if a matching model is available for the existing outdoor unit and refrigerant. On older systems a matched replacement of both is normally required.
Is a permit required for HVAC work in Kendall?
Installing or replacing air conditioning equipment in Kendall requires a mechanical permit and a final inspection. Permits here are issued by Miami-Dade County, since Kendall is unincorporated and has no city building department. Repairs, maintenance and cleaning do not need one. We file the paperwork and attend the inspection.
Who issues AC permits in Kendall?
Kendall is an unincorporated community, so mechanical permits come from Miami-Dade County's permitting office instead of a city building department. We file the permit, schedule the county inspection and meet the inspector on site.
Why are the back bedrooms in my Kendall house always warmer?
On single-storey Kendall homes the bedrooms are usually at the end of the longest duct runs. Leaky or crushed attic ducts and an undersized return are the usual causes. We measure airflow at each register and fix the duct problem, which is often cheaper than replacing the air conditioner.
