Musty or burnt smell the first time the system runs

Heating and air conditioning service built around Ridgeway
Most of the work we do in Ridgeway starts the same way: the system is running but the house is not comfortable. Before we replace anything, we measure airflow, static pressure and temperatures so you are paying for the actual fault.
A large share of the equipment we service in Ridgeway was installed by a builder to a minimum spec. That usually means an undersized return, a cheap filter rack and a condenser sitting close to a wall.
We recommend two maintenance visits a year in South Carolina: one before April through October and one before December through February. It is the single highest-return thing a homeowner can do for equipment life.

Ridgeway29130 HVAC questions, answered
Are your technicians licensed and insured?
Every technician dispatched into Ridgeway is licensed, insured and background-checked. We can provide proof of insurance on request before the visit if you would like it on file.
Is my carbon monoxide risk something I should worry about?
With any combustion appliance, yes. A cracked heat exchanger can spill carbon monoxide into the living space, and it is odourless. We perform combustion analysis and a CO test on every furnace and boiler call in Ridgeway, and we recommend a working CO alarm on every level of the home regardless of who services your equipment.
Why is my system short cycling?
Short cycling in Ridgeway 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.
Do you service commercial and light commercial properties?
Yes. Around Ridgeway 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.
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.
How much does an HVAC service call cost in 29130?
A diagnostic visit in Ridgeway typically runs $75 to $150, and that fee is usually applied toward the repair if you approve the work. Repair prices are quoted as a flat rate before we start, so the number you approve is the number you pay regardless of how long the job takes.
