When your air conditioner breaks down during Colorado's hot summers, you need fast answers. Here's what homeowners typically want to know:
Our technicians diagnose and repair all air conditioning issues. Here are the most common problems we see in Colorado Springs homes:
Usually caused by a failed capacitor, bad thermostat, tripped breaker, or blown fuse. Often a simple fix that takes 30-60 minutes to repair and gets your system running again.
AC runs but doesn't cool. Typically caused by low refrigerant from a leak, dirty condenser coils, frozen evaporator coils, or compressor issues. Most repairs cost $300-$800.
Low refrigerant reduces cooling capacity and efficiency. Colorado's altitude and temperature swings can stress connections. We locate leaks, repair them, and recharge the system properly.
Ice buildup on indoor coils indicates airflow problems, low refrigerant, or dirty filters. Requires diagnosis to identify root cause and prevent recurrence.
The heart of your AC system. Compressor failure often means replacement consideration, especially on older units. We provide honest guidance on repair versus replacement.
Outdoor fan motor failure prevents heat dissipation. Common in Colorado due to dust, debris, and temperature extremes. Usually requires motor or capacitor replacement.
Water leaks from indoor unit indicate clogged drain lines. Colorado's dry climate can cause algae growth when humidity does occur. Simple cleaning resolves most issues.
Inaccurate temperature readings, unresponsive controls, or communication failures between thermostat and AC. Often a simple calibration, battery replacement, or upgrade.
Grinding, squealing, or banging sounds indicate worn bearings, loose parts, or debris in the unit. Immediate repair prevents further damage to expensive components.

When your air conditioner breaks down, you need a company you can trust. Here's why Colorado Springs homeowners call Winterrowd HVAC:
We understand Colorado summers can be brutal, especially at our altitude where the sun is intense. Our 24/7 emergency service means we're available when you need us most. During cooling season, most emergency calls get same-day service with arrival within 2-4 hours. We dispatch immediately and keep you updated on our arrival time.
No surprises, no hidden fees. After diagnosing your AC, we provide clear pricing before starting any repair work. You'll know exactly what it costs and what we're fixing. If we find multiple issues, we'll prioritize what's urgent and what can wait. You make the final decision.
Our NATE-certified technicians have 15+ years average experience repairing air conditioners in Colorado Springs. They understand how Colorado's altitude, temperature swings, and environmental factors affect AC systems. That experience means faster diagnosis and reliable repairs the first time.
Our technicians carry common AC parts for all major brands on their trucks. Capacitors, contactors, thermostats, and refrigerant are always on hand. That means most repairs are completed during the first visit without waiting for parts orders. We maintain significant inventory specifically for Colorado Springs' most common AC models.
When your AC needs repair, we give honest recommendations. If replacement makes more financial sense than repair, we'll tell you. If a minor repair will keep your system running reliably for years, we'll recommend that instead. You'll never feel pressured into unnecessary work or upgrades.
Every AC repair comes with a 1-year labor warranty. If the same problem occurs within a year, we'll fix it at no charge. Parts are covered by manufacturer warranty. That's our commitment to quality workmanship and your peace of mind.
Here's exactly what happens when you call Winterrowd HVAC for AC repair in Colorado Springs:
Call (719) 752-0903 or schedule online. We'll ask about your AC symptoms, gather basic information, and schedule a service appointment. Emergency calls get immediate dispatch - we'll give you an estimated arrival time and call 30 minutes before we arrive.
Our certified technician arrives with a fully stocked service truck. They'll listen to your description of the problem, inspect both indoor and outdoor units, test components, check refrigerant levels, and identify the root cause. Most diagnoses take 30-45 minutes for thorough troubleshooting.
Before touching any tools, we'll explain exactly what's wrong, what needs to be repaired, and provide upfront pricing. If we find multiple issues, we'll prioritize them and let you decide what to fix now versus later. No work starts until you approve.
Our technician completes the repair using quality parts and proper techniques. We follow manufacturer specifications and EPA regulations for refrigerant handling. Most repairs are completed in 1-2 hours. If we need to order parts, we'll let you know the timeline and keep you updated.
After repairs, we thoroughly test your AC to ensure it's operating correctly and efficiently. We check refrigerant pressures, verify proper airflow, measure temperature differentials, and test all safety controls. Your system must pass our performance standards before we leave.
We'll walk you through what we repaired, answer your questions, and provide maintenance tips to prevent future issues. You'll receive documentation of the work performed and your 1-year labor warranty information. We'll also recommend when to schedule your next tune-up.
Sometimes repair makes sense, sometimes replacement is smarter. Here's our honest guidance to help you decide:
| Factor | Repair Makes Sense | Consider Replacement |
|---|---|---|
| AC Age | Under 10 years old | 12+ years old |
| Repair Cost | Under $800 | $1,200+ repairs |
| Repair Frequency | First major repair | 3+ repairs in 2 years |
| Energy Efficiency | 14+ SEER rating | 10 SEER or lower |
| Refrigerant Type | Uses R-410A | Uses R-22 (phased out) |
| Comfort | Cools home evenly | Can't maintain temperature |
| Component Failed | Fan, capacitor, coils | Compressor failure |
Use the 50% rule: If the repair cost is more than 50% of a new AC AND your system is over 10 years old, replacement usually makes more financial sense. For example, if a $1,400 compressor replacement is needed on a 13-year-old AC with R-22 refrigerant, a $3,500 new high-efficiency system is a better investment.
We'll always give you honest advice based on your specific situation. We'd rather repair your AC fairly than sell you an unnecessary replacement. But we'll also tell you when replacement is the smarter financial decision.

"Called Winterrowd when our AC stopped working during a 95-degree day. They had a tech here within 3 hours. Found a failed capacitor, replaced it on the spot, and had us cooling again in 30 minutes. Cost was $225 - very fair. The tech was professional and explained everything clearly. Highly recommend!"
Powers Corridor, Colorado Springs
"Our AC was blowing warm air. Winterrowd diagnosed a refrigerant leak, repaired the leak, and recharged the system. They also cleaned the coils which were covered in cottonwood and checked everything else. The price was exactly what they quoted - no surprises. Been working perfectly ever since."
Briargate, Colorado Springs
"My 14-year-old AC needed a $1,400 compressor replacement. The tech was honest and recommended replacement instead since a new high-efficiency AC was only $2,800 and would cut my cooling bills. Appreciated the honesty rather than just doing the repair. They installed a new system the next week and it's amazing."
