STA SO COOL HVAC is your best choice for residential and commercial jobs. Gino has over 15 years in the industry. We have a very good and reliable supplier that we can provide additional purchase discounts for new unit installations that we always pass on to you the clients. Call us today for the best service for the best price. Many people ask me where I got the business name. My maternal grandfather and I were very close, his name was Steve Staso. I decided to separate his last name and add cool. Hence the name STA SO COOL came about. My grandfather meant the world to me and I plan on honoring his name with my HVAC business.

"This company was out last week installed a furnace at my mother's house did a great job but after they finished the job they did recommend so other things be replaced the hot water tank. This was very important since the flu was busted. So the next day mom decided to get a 50 gallon power vent and ac to the house as she had never had ac before. So gino the owner came out on Tuesday night took some measurements and his guys came out Saturday morning installed the power vent hot water tank and ac unit. They went above and beyond any company i have seen in the past. Thank you Gino Casey Joe for a fantastic job."

Central a/c service or repairs FAQs

In most cases, you’ll never need a recharge unless the system develops a leak. If that happens, expect to top it off every two to three years—or sooner—until the leak is repaired. Keeping refrigerant at the right level lets your AC run efficiently and prevents extra wear on the compressor.

Plan on about 5 to 10 minutes per pound of refrigerant. Since each ton of cooling needs 2 to 4 pounds, a typical three-ton unit requires 6 to 12 pounds and roughly 30 minutes to 2 hours of work. Your tech will confirm the exact time once they know the size of your system and the amount of Freon it lost.

Skip the DIY. The EPA limits refrigerant sales and handling to certified technicians, and violators can face fines of up to $10,000. A licensed pro has the tools to find leaks, make repairs, and recharge the system safely. Hiring one keeps you on the right side of the law and protects your AC from costly mistakes.

Watch for ice on the evaporator coil, water pooling around the unit, frequent hissing, higher power bills, longer cooling cycles, or warm air from the vents. Spotting these red flags early lets you call a pro before efficiency drops and repair costs climb.

Coolant can escape when components crack or corrode, connectors loosen, factory defects slip through, or installation work leaves joints vulnerable. Years of vibration and wear also take a toll on seals and copper tubing. Because each cause calls for a different fix, let a licensed HVAC pro pin down the source and handle the repair.
