Cooling Restored When You Need It Most

Hayes Heating and Cooling offers fast air conditioning repair for homes and businesses in Puyallup, Washington.

When your air conditioner stops blowing cold air during a July heat spike in Puyallup, the cause is often a refrigerant leak, a failed capacitor, or a clogged evaporator coil. Hayes Heating and Cooling responds quickly to cooling failures, including after-hours and weekend emergencies when indoor temperatures climb and comfort becomes a concern. If your system is cycling on and off, making unusual sounds, or struggling to keep up with the thermostat setting, a repair visit can identify the issue and restore airflow.

AC repair services address central air conditioning systems, heat pumps, and light commercial units from manufacturers including Coleman and Daikin. The technician inspects the condensing unit outside, checks electrical connections, measures refrigerant levels, and tests airflow at the indoor coil. In many cases, the problem is something fixable without replacing the entire system, such as a blown fuse, a dirty filter, or a malfunctioning thermostat.

If you are in Puyallup and your cooling system is not working, contact Hayes Heating and Cooling to request immediate AC repair service.

How a Repair Visit Works and What Gets Fixed

When you call for service in Puyallup, the technician arrives with diagnostic tools, replacement parts for common failures, and refrigerant if your system is low. The repair begins with testing the thermostat, checking voltage at the circuit breaker, and inspecting the outdoor unit for debris or damage. If airflow is weak, the technician examines the blower motor, ductwork connections, and indoor coil for blockages.

Once the repair is finished, your system should cool the home within the expected temperature range, run without short cycling, and operate quietly. Most repairs prevent the issue from returning for the remainder of the season.

Hayes Heating and Cooling works on both older systems and newer high-efficiency models, and the team understands how Puyallup homes respond to sudden temperature changes. AC repair does not include ductwork modifications or window unit service, but it covers the components that affect your central cooling system. If the system is beyond economical repair, the technician will explain your replacement options.

A few answers before you pick up the phone

Homeowners in Puyallup often ask about repair costs, emergency availability, and what to do if the system fails completely. These are the questions that come up during most service calls.

What is the most common cause of AC breakdowns in Puyallup?
Dirty coils, refrigerant leaks, and capacitor failures are the most frequent issues. Lack of routine maintenance often accelerates these problems, especially during the first hot days of summer.
How quickly can you respond to an emergency cooling failure?
Hayes Heating and Cooling offers emergency service after hours and on weekends. Response time varies based on the day and call volume, but the team prioritizes cooling failures that affect vulnerable occupants.
How do I know if my system needs refrigerant?
If your air conditioner runs constantly but never cools the home, or if you see ice forming on the indoor coil, the system may be low on refrigerant due to a leak. A technician will measure levels and locate the source before recharging.
What should I check before calling for AC repair?
Make sure your thermostat is set to cool, the circuit breaker has not tripped, and the air filter is not clogged. If the system still does not work, it is time to schedule a repair visit.
When is it better to replace the system instead of repairing it?
If your unit is over fifteen years old, requires expensive compressor or coil replacement, or has needed multiple repairs in the past two years, replacement is usually the smarter choice. The technician will help you compare costs.
