Air Conditioning Repair in Fort Myers

Big Air handles every type of residential air conditioning repair in Fort Myers and Southwest Florida. Our licensed, certified technicians find the root cause, not just the symptom, so your system runs the way it should. Beyond repair, we provide heating services, system replacements, indoor air quality solutions, and maintenance plans to keep your home comfortable year-round.

AC Not Cooling

The most common call we get in Fort Myers. It could be a refrigerant leak, a compressor issue, a bad capacitor, or simply a clogged filter. We find the exact cause before recommending any repair.

AC Blowing Warm Air

If your system runs but blows warm air, the issue is often a refrigerant charge problem, a frozen evaporator coil, or a failing compressor. Our technicians check every possibility.

AC Won't Turn On

It could be electrical, like a tripped breaker, a blown fuse, a bad contactor, or a failed thermostat. It could also be a safety shutoff from a clogged drain line. We trace the issue to the source.

Water Leaking from AC

A clogged condensate drain line is the most common cause of water leaks from indoor AC units in Fort Myers. Left alone, it can cause real water damage. We clear the line and check for other issues.

AC Making Strange Noises

Grinding, squealing, buzzing, or rattling usually points to a mechanical problem, like a failing fan motor, loose hardware, or debris in the unit. We identify the source and fix it.

AC Short Cycling

If your system turns on and off without finishing a cooling cycle, it is working harder and wearing out faster. Common causes include an oversized system, low refrigerant, or an electrical fault.

Frozen Evaporator Coil

Ice on your indoor coil is a sign of restricted airflow or low refrigerant. Running the system this way can damage the compressor. We thaw the coil, find the root cause, and fix it.

Thermostat Problems

Sometimes the AC itself is fine but the thermostat is not communicating properly. We determine whether the issue is the thermostat, the wiring, or the system.

AC Repair Pricing in Fort Myers

You should know what you are paying for before any work begins. We do not inflate repair costs to push you toward a replacement, and we do not charge for repairs you do not need. The price is written down for your approval first, so there is no surprise on the invoice.

$99
Diagnostic

+$100

The Big Air Visual Check

See exactly what we find, in photos and readings.

Most companies ask you to take their word for it. We do not. On every repair our technicians take photos of what they find, pull live refrigerant and temperature readings with professional instruments, and compare your system against the manufacturer's own specs, so you can see how it is actually running versus how it should run.

It all goes on your invoice and stays there for good. No guesswork, just proof you can keep and forward to anyone.

  • Before-and-after photos of every repair
  • Live instrument readings, not guesses
  • We follow the manufacturer's manual to the number
  • Saved to your invoice for good

We will tell you straight. As a general guide, if your system is over 15 years old and facing a major repair, a replacement may be the better long-term value.
