The Conestoga17516 calls we answer most often
If your system is doing any of the following, it is worth a diagnostic before the fault gets more expensive.
Short cycling — on and off every few minutes
Skyrocketing utility bills with no change in usage
Pilot light or hot surface igniter failing repeatedly
No cool air, or air that is barely cooler than the room
Outdoor condenser humming but the fan not turning
Heat pump stuck blowing cold air in heating mode
Heating and air conditioning service built around Conestoga
Whether the complaint is weak airflow upstairs, a furnace that will not stay lit, or an outdoor unit that hums but never starts, the process is the same — a proper diagnostic, a written price, then the repair.
Homes in Lancaster County tend to be a mix of older builds with original ductwork and newer infill construction, which means airflow problems show up very differently from one street to the next.
Peak cooling demand here runs June through August. Booking a tune-up in early spring means you are not competing with the whole neighbourhood for a tech in July.

Conestoga17516 HVAC questions, answered
Do you service commercial and light commercial properties?
Yes. Around Conestoga we handle rooftop packaged units, split systems, VRF/VRV installations and building automation faults for offices, retail, restaurants and multi-tenant buildings, including after-hours scheduling so you are not disrupting trade.
Do you offer maintenance plans?
We do. A two-visit plan in Pennsylvania covers a spring cooling inspection and an autumn heating inspection, priority scheduling during peak weeks, discounted repairs and no diagnostic fee. Members rarely end up on the emergency list.
Is my system low on refrigerant, or is it leaking?
Refrigerant does not get "used up" the way fuel does. If your charge is low, there is a leak somewhere — usually at a flare connection, a schrader core or the evaporator coil. We locate and repair the leak rather than simply topping up the charge, because a top-up alone will fail again.
Should I repair my system or replace it?
The usual rule of thumb: if the repair costs more than half the price of a replacement and the equipment is over ten years old, replacement generally wins. We will run that comparison with you on site and show you the maths — and if the honest answer is a $180 capacitor rather than a $9,000 system, that is the answer you get.
Why is my furnace short cycling?
Short cycling in Conestoga most often comes from a restricted airflow path — a loaded filter, a closed register, an undersized return — or from an oversized unit. It can also be a failing flame sensor or a pressure switch fault. We measure static pressure and temperature rise before concluding anything, because guessing at this one is expensive.
How often should I change my filter in 17516?
Monthly inspection and replacement every 60 to 90 days is the baseline. Homes in Conestoga with pets, ongoing construction nearby, or a high-MERV filter in an undersized return should move to monthly changes. A loaded filter is the single most common cause of frozen coils and failed blower motors.
