"Outstanding customer service from Marc and the owner Todd. First they responded to the request within minutes, set up a time were at my home in a little over an hour. Identified the issue in minutes and started to make the repair. In least than an hour we had AC restored. Todd spent time with me and went over all the new products to replace my 25 year old system thats on its last legs. Sent his designer to my home and hour later and Rusty had a quote for a full replacement of 2 units in the future. Repair price was very fair and totally upfront with the cost, no hidden fees or tac ons. These guys were friendly and polite and a high end crew who really probably didnt need to take such a small job but myself and my family thank you Todd and Marc !! I will be recommending to friends and neighbors in the future."

Welcome to All Seasons Home Comfort Solutions! We look forward to serving you!

"Good Seasons Home Comfort Solutions exceeded all my expectations! Both of our existing HVAC units died within one week of each other during the heat of the summer, so I needed help quickly. The owner, Kurtis, came out promptly, and I was immediately impressed by how professional and easy to work with he was. He provided affordable and comprehensive solutions for my needs, carefully evaluating the setup and making thoughtful recommendations. Kurtis and his team worked around my Airbnb bookings without any issues, which was a huge relief. The installers were polite, professional, and kept everything clean as they worked. Their attention to detail was exceptional—they left the worksite spotless and even added a rock border around the units, which was a polished and thoughtful touch. They installed a heat pump for the upstairs, AC with a gas furnace for the main floor, and a mini-split in the basement. On top of their excellent work, Kurtis also helped me coordinate with other contractors for related projects, including installing a gas line and upgrading both of my electrical panels. This level of service made the entire process so much less stressful. Now, my house is comfortable, and everything looks and runs fantastic. Throughout the process, Kurtis and his team were responsive, knowledgeable, and patient. Before the project began, Kurtis took the time to thoroughly explain my options, address my concerns, and discuss financing, which made me feel confident in my decision. They truly treated me like family, and their dedication to top-notch customer service was exceptional. It’s clear they genuinely care about their work and their clients. If you’re looking for a competent team that delivers quality, professionalism, and an unmatched level of care - and also helps you save money, I highly recommend Good Seasons. They are simply the best!"

Central a/c service or repairs FAQs

An AC capacitor provides the electrical energy needed to start and run your air conditioner's motors. It stores and releases electricity to keep the compressor and fans running smoothly. Without a functioning capacitor, your AC unit may not start or operate efficiently. If you notice problems with your AC unit, contact a professional to diagnose the problem and see if you need to replace your AC capacitor.

AC capacitors last between five and 15 years, with an average lifespan of ten years. Environmental conditions and system usage can affect their lifespan. Regular maintenance can help extend the life of your capacitor. When your replacement capacitor is installed, be sure to ask your AC technician about best practices for maintenance and ongoing service to keep your unit in good condition for as long as possible.

While you might save between $60 and $200 by replacing the capacitor yourself, it's not recommended unless you have electrical expertise and proper safety equipment. Replacing a capacitor involves risks like electric shock and potential damage to your AC unit. It's safer to hire a certified HVAC technician who ensures safe and accurate installation.

It's safest to have a qualified technician inspect your AC capacitor. If you decide to look at it yourself after turning off all power, you can carefully remove the front panel and check the capacitor for any visible issues. However, handling electrical components carries risks, so professional inspection is recommended.
