Fast, Reliable HVAC Repairs from Local Experts 

When your HVAC system fails, waiting isn't an option. A broken AC unit during Florida's summer heat creates genuine discomfort and can damage your home's air quality and indoor comfort levels. 

That's why Ellington offers rapid response times with same-day and emergency repair availability for qualifying service calls. Our technicians arrive equipped and ready to diagnose your system on the spot. We explain what's wrong, show you the options, and provide transparent pricing before we begin any work. We serve both residential systems and light commercial units, handle brands across the industry, and tackle everything from simple fixes to complex repairs. 

Common HVAC Problems We Fix 

Recognizing what's wrong with your system helps you understand whether to call now or if the issue can wait. Here are the problems homeowners and businesses most frequently encounter: 

• Weak or Uneven Airflow: When air conditioning isn't reaching every room or the airflow feels weak, your system is struggling. Clogged air filters, blocked ducts, and failing blower motors are common culprits. The longer you wait, the harder your system works and the higher your energy bills climb. 

• System Not Cooling or Heating Properly: Your thermostat is set right, but rooms feel too warm or too cold. This could mean a refrigerant leak, a failing compressor, or problems with the outdoor unit. In Florida's climate, losing cooling capacity even briefly becomes a real problem. Professional diagnosis pinpoints the exact cause. 

• Unusual Noises or Odors: A quiet hum is normal. Banging, rattling, grinding, or squealing sounds mean something inside your system is damaged or loose. Similarly, musty smells suggest mold in ductwork, while burning odors indicate electrical problems. These aren't cosmetic issues—they're warning signs of serious problems developing. 

• Rising Energy Bills or Frequent Cycling: Your AC running constantly or cycling on and off more than usual signals inefficiency. A system losing 5-10% of its efficiency per year means higher bills even with normal usage. When bills spike without explanation, have a technician inspect your system before small problems become expensive ones. 

Emergency HVAC Repair When You Need It Most 

Breakdowns always happen at the worst times. That's why Ellington prioritizes emergency repair availability. We understand that losing your AC during Florida's summer heat isn't just uncomfortable—it's urgent. 

Don't wait if you experience any of these situations. Call immediately: 

• System stops working completely: No cooling or heating means no relief from the heat. This requires urgent attention. 

• Gas or burning odors coming from vents or the outdoor unit: These signal electrical or refrigerant hazards and pose safety risks. 

• Water pooling around the indoor unit or refrigerant leaking from lines: Leaks can damage your home and require emergency repairs to prevent costly water damage. 

• Visible damage to the outdoor unit: Dents, exposed wiring, or damage to fins means your system is compromised and needs immediate professional attention. 

Same-day service is available for emergency calls. Our technicians often diagnose and resolve issues on the first visit, getting you back to comfort fast.  

How We Diagnose and Fix Your HVAC System 

Our repair process is systematic and transparent. Here's what happens when you call Ellington: 

1. Thorough System Inspection 

We arrive equipped with diagnostic tools and expertise. Our technician inspects your indoor and outdoor units, checks refrigerant levels, tests electrical components, and examines ductwork.  

This comprehensive assessment identifies the root cause, not just the symptom. We explain our findings in plain language so you understand exactly what's wrong and why repair is necessary. 

2. Transparent Recommendations and Estimates 

Before any repair begins, we provide a written estimate showing labor costs, parts, and timeline. We discuss options honestly; sometimes repair makes sense; sometimes replacement is the smarter choice.  

If your system is older and repair costs approach $5,000, we'll explain why replacement might save you money long-term. We won’t pressure you into decisions you're not ready for. 

3. Expert Repairs and Performance Testing 

Once you approve, our licensed technicians perform the repair using quality parts and industry-standard methods.  

After we finish, we test the system thoroughly to confirm it's working at peak efficiency. We walk you through maintenance steps that keep your system running reliably between service calls. 

Serving Homes and Businesses Across Brevard County 

Ellington has served Rockledge, Melbourne, West Melbourne, Edgewater, Sebastian, and the broader Palm Bay area for years.  

We understand the specific challenges Florida's climate creates for HVAC systems: 

• High humidity accelerates wear on components and creates conditions for mold growth inside ducts 

• Saltwater air near coastal areas like Satellite Beach causes corrosion of copper lines and electrical connections 

• Heat waves put intense strain on aging systems, often causing failures during peak demand periods 

• Year-round AC use means more frequent maintenance and earlier component failure compared to other regions 

Our team stays current with the latest equipment and repair techniques, and we back our work with service warranties that give you confidence.
