From initial contact to final verification — here is how we handle ac repair.
We assess your air conditioning problem — no cooling, weak airflow, strange noises, ice buildup, or short cycling — and perform a safety check on electrical connections, circuit breaker, disconnect, and thermostat wiring before beginning hands-on diagnostics.
At your Cedar Hills property, our technician tests the run and start capacitors with a capacitance meter, checks the contactor for pitting and voltage drop, measures compressor amperage against rated load amps, and reads suction and discharge pressures to calculate superheat and subcooling against the manufacturer charge chart for current conditions.
KIC Refrigeration performs AC repairs in Cedar Hills, UT by the book. For electrical failures, we match the replacement part to factory specifications. For sealed-system repairs, we follow EPA Section 608 recovery procedures, braze with nitrogen purge, pressure test to 300 PSI, evacuate to 500 microns, and charge by weight — never by guessing or topping off.
We run the system for a minimum of 15 minutes, measure the temperature split across the evaporator coil (target: 16 to 22 degrees), verify suction and discharge pressures, check condenser fan and blower motor amperage, and confirm the thermostat cycles the system off at setpoint.

AC repair in Cedar Hills typically costs $150 to $500 for common component failures including run capacitors ($150 to $250), contactors ($150 to $350), condenser fan motors ($250 to $500), and blower motors ($300 to $600). Compressor replacement is the most expensive repair at $1,500 to $3,500 depending on unit tonnage and whether the system uses R-410A or older R-22 refrigerant. Evaporator coil replacement runs $800 to $2,500 including the refrigerant recovery and recharge. KIC Refrigeration provides a detailed written estimate with itemized parts and labor costs before beginning any AC repair at your Cedar Hills property so there are no surprises on the invoice.
An AC that runs but produces little or no cooling is most commonly caused by low refrigerant charge from a leak, which reduces the suction pressure and causes the evaporator coil temperature to drop below 32 degrees, forming ice that blocks airflow completely. Other causes include a dirty condenser coil that cannot reject heat, a failed compressor that runs but does not pump refrigerant, a stuck or failed metering device — either a TXV or fixed orifice — that restricts refrigerant flow, or a blower motor running at reduced speed due to a failing capacitor. KIC Refrigeration connects manifold gauges at your Cedar Hills home and measures suction pressure, discharge pressure, superheat, and subcooling to diagnose the exact cause.
AC refrigerant recharge in Cedar Hills costs $200 to $500 for R-410A systems at roughly $50 to $80 per pound, and $400 to $1,200 for older R-22 systems at $80 to $150 per pound due to the phaseout-driven supply shortage. However, simply adding refrigerant without finding the leak is a temporary and wasteful fix — the charge will leak out again in weeks or months and you will be back in the same situation. KIC Refrigeration always locates the leak first using electronic leak detectors and UV dye, repairs the leaking component, evacuates the system to remove moisture and air, and recharges by weight to the manufacturer specification. This approach fixes the problem permanently.
