AC Repair Services We Offer in New Port Richey
RJ Kielty's HVAC division handles a full range of AC repair services for residential and light commercial systems.
AC Repair and Diagnostics
Every AC repair starts with a proper diagnosis. Our technicians use systematic testing procedures to identify the root cause, not just the symptom.
Emergency AC Repair, Available 24/7
Florida heat doesn't follow business hours. When your AC fails on a Saturday night or during a holiday weekend, R.J. Kielty offers 24/7 emergency AC repair service.
Central Air Conditioning System Repair
Central AC systems are the most common type we service in New Port Richey. These split systems rely on indoor and outdoor components working together, and a failure in either side effects the entire system.
AC Compressor and Condenser Repair
The compressor is the most expensive single component in your AC system. When it fails, you'll hear grinding or clicking from the outdoor unit, or the system will run without producing cold air.
Thermostat Troubleshooting and Repair
A malfunctioning thermostat can mimic more serious AC problems. If your system won't turn on, cycles erratically, or doesn't match the set temperature, the thermostat is one of the first things we check.
Refrigerant Leak Detection and Recharge
Low refrigerant is one of the most common causes of poor AC performance. Your system doesn't consume refrigerant, if levels are low, there's a leak somewhere.

Frequently Asked Questions About AC Repair
What are the most common AC repair issues in Florida?
Capacitor replacement and refrigerant recharges are the most frequent AC repairs, especially in Florida's heat. Low refrigerant levels often result from slow leaks in aging systems, while capacitors wear out faster due to high temperatures and humidity.
How much does an AC repair cost in New Port Richey?
AC service calls in New Port Richey typically range in price for diagnostics. Total repair costs depend on the specific issue. R.J. Kielty provides upfront pricing after diagnosis, with no surprise charges or unnecessary upsells.
What should I do if my AC is blowing warm air?
Turn off your system immediately to avoid compressor strain. Check your thermostat settings and air filter. If the problem persists, contact a technician for a proper diagnostic to identify the root cause.
How often should I get my AC system serviced?
Regular AC maintenance helps prevent costly repairs and extends system lifespan. Annual inspections before summer season are recommended, especially in Florida's climate where systems run year-round and face harsh conditions.
When should I replace my AC instead of repairing it?
Use the '$5,000 rule': multiply your unit's age by the repair cost estimate. If the result exceeds $5,000, replacement often makes more financial sense. R.J. Kielty technicians provide honest assessments to help you decide.
What does AC refrigerant do, and why does it leak?
Refrigerant absorbs heat from your home, enabling cooling. Systems don't consume refrigerant naturally; low levels indicate leaks in evaporator coils, line sets, or valves. R.J. Kielty uses electronic leak detectors to locate and repair leaks before recharging.
