Question 1

How does the 2026 refrigerant transition affect my current AC repair?

Accepted Answer

The HVAC industry is currently transitioning away from R-410A to more eco-friendly refrigerants. While our technicians can still perform air conditioning repair on your existing unit, the cost of older refrigerants is increasing as production decreases. If your system has a significant leak, we often recommend pressure testing to see if a repair is viable or if upgrading to a new, SEER2-compliant system using modern refrigerants is more cost-effective.

Question 2

Why is my AC blowing warm air when it’s over 105 degrees in Kingman?

Accepted Answer

In the high desert, this is often a sign of 'thermal overload.' When the outdoor temperature is extreme, a dirty condenser coil or a failing start capacitor can prevent the system from rejecting heat. If the compressor cannot start or stay cool, the indoor fan will continue to blow, but the air won't be chilled.

Question 3

What makes 24/7 emergency AC restoration different from a standard service call?

Accepted Answer

An emergency call is a priority dispatch designed for life-safety situations during a heatwave. At Ambient Edge, our emergency teams carry a higher inventory of universal blower motors, contactors, and capacitors specifically to ensure same-day restoration.
