AC NOT BLOWING COLD AIR AND OTHER COMMON AC ISSUES
FROZEN EVAPORATOR COILS Is your AC not blowing cold air? The evaporator coil is likely frozen. This problem often occurs when there is a lack of airflow. Frozen evaporator coils will need to be cleaned by your AC unit repair contractor.
BROKEN FAN BELT
Your AC’s fan belt can wear out over time. The subsequent squealing noises will often alert you to fan belt issues. Our AC repair technicians in Charleston, SC, can easily fix this problem by replacing the belt.
DAMAGED MOTOR OR COMPRESSOR
The motor and compressor on your air conditioner will eventually wear out. In some cases, it makes more financial sense to replace the entire system than just the motor. Our AC unit repair specialists will evaluate the problem and let you know whether repair or replacement is best for your situation.
LEAKING REFRIGERANT
Is your air conditioner emitting foul odors or making hissing noises? Your unit likely has a refrigerant leak. Don’t attempt to refill refrigerant on your own! Our AC repair experts in Charleston, SC, will help determine the right amount of refrigerant to fix the issues you’re experiencing.
CLOGGED DRAIN PIPELINE
Your AC unit may run poorly or emit bad odors if the drainage system is clogged with dirt, dust, or algae. You’ll need to have a professional technician clean the drain pipeline. Our air conditioning repair company can also ensure your unit is mounted properly so you will not experience drainage problems again.
MALFUNCTIONING THERMOSTAT SENSOR
The thermostat sensor is located near the evaporator coil and measures the air temperature in the coil. Based on its reading, the thermostat will adjust the cooling settings. If the sensor is out of alignment or malfunctioning, the air conditioner may turn on and off frequently. Our licensed technicians can quickly fix the broken AC unit and get your home cooling properly.

"Rudd Plumbing Heating and Air are the BEST!.. Adam, Joshua, Shaun, and crews have not let us down. I would highly recommend this group for reliability, price and expertise."
Danny Gregory was an awesome service person! He was on time, responsive, and obviously very competent. He gave us great ideas on weatherproofing, and even discovered a couple of leaks we hadn't known about. Well done!
Tyler and his team worked diligently on the HVAC install at my home today. There was a team of four employees and all were very polite and respectful to me and also my home. They did a nice neat job and cleaned everything up afterwards. Tyler went above and beyond to make sure I was satisfied. He showed me how to program the new thermostat and patiently answered my questions. What more could you ask for? They were all great from start to finish! *Marcus did the quality control check on my system installed a few weeks ago. He was very professional and polite. He was very detailed in his questions and very thorough in checking the system. He even went through the thermostat schedule setup with me. Great job Marcus!
Seth did a great job at identifying and fixing our issue. The call to schedule went smooth and text to confirm appointment was simple and efficient. This is our second time using them and will call back with any future issues. Thanks!
Seth showed up on time and texted his time of arrival. He was friendly, knowledgeable and professional. He replaced a tub/shower valve with new water lines. He patiently explained what he was going to do and did a great job. He also cleaned up after himself. I will absolutely recommend Seth and Rudd Plumbing. If you hire Rudd, you’ll be happy and satisfied you did.
Rudd has always done a great job for us whatever the plumbing or HVAC issue.They have been our go-to for the last 4 years. From reception to service, everyone at the company has been cordial and professional. Their service is competitively priced. Really couldn’t ask for more out of a HVAC and plumbing company! Special thanks to our last tech Tommy who really went above and beyond to explain all of our options.Thank you!
Seth was very knowledgeable and efficient! He is polite and helped explain what was causing my clog. Great customer service! I would definitely recommend Rudd for your needs. They are responsive and wait times are minimal!
Alex was very courteous, clean , considerate. Gave thorough explanation of the conditions of units, along with status. Educational without pushing to sell upgrades. Once again very happy with your employees. Highly recommend.
Incredible service. A friendly voice answered for our service request. A tech came on site within a few hours! Ed arrived, diagnosed the problem, advised us on the problem and overall age/condition of the unit. Ordered the needed part to resolve the problem. Great service. Very professional service. Highly recommended.
I had my first home plumbing inspection done this past Monday and was impressed by how thorough the inspection was and how knowledgeable the technicians were. Seth & John showed up on time and were very helpful in explaining everything they were going to do and why it needed to be done. They even went in the crawl space to check for any leaks or damage. At the conclusion I was provided with a report & pictures of any issues found. I trust Rudd to keep my home in the best working condition and would not even consider working with anyone else. All of their staff, from the office personnel to their technicians, have always been very professional & know their business.
5 stars!!! Excellent, professional and thorough service!!! Made online appt. with Rudd for heater unit problem. Technician Marcus arrived and was top notch. Very knowledgeable and informative, checked/tested everything from A to Z, diagnosed the problem and then explained to us in detail what was going on which turned out to be a operating issue with us. Rudd/Marcus is an honest company and did not try fix something that wasn't broke. We signed a annual inspection service contract with them on the spot!
The technician came out for a tankless water heater flush. He was very friendly, professional and courteous. Our technician was Daniel Gregory and we would be glad to have him back next time.
Danny (plumbing) and Brandon (HVAC) came out to complete the semi-annual inspection of my heating and plumbing systems. Both did a great job and explained everything well, including photos. Great job, guys! Thanks, Rudd.
Shawn Swain, Sr. Licensed Plumber, Must be Highly Recommended for his recent toilet repair at our residence!Before any work was started, Shawn reviewed separate cost options for us to consider for a job that could not be fully evaluated without it being removed in order to identify the initial problem . His patience and honesty led to our decision of having him uninstall the toilet and mount it correctly with a new flange, bolts and adhesive for a more secure and stable unit. We were definitely impressed with his concern by providing a"Step By Step" instruction of what was being done as if it was for his own personal house repair.Rudd Plumbing is fortunate to have Shawn Swain as their employee who is Professional and provides the Utmost qualitative Service in our Community!!Val & Ron N.(Cane Bay Residents)7-12-24Ola Tackett, Rudd Sr. Technician, returned a courtesy call to ourhome to assist us in reprogramming our Ecobee thermostat along with an A/C Refrigerant check after a recent maintenance repair in the Spring. Ola's product knowledge along with a thorough visual and verbal explanation of our Goodman gas unit definitely added a better understanding of it's "Settings" performance and system readings.We APPLAUD Ola and Rudd Plumbing for "Outstanding" Five Star service (*****) !!Thank You,Val & Ron N.*****
Ola: He has great customer relations skills.He reviewed, in easy to understand language and pictures, why my 16 yr old unit was no longer heating. After he explained Rudd’s method of quality control, I have confidence I will receive excellent service and the best product to solve my HVAC problem. I hope Ola will continue to work for Rudd so I can specifically ask for him to do my maintenance and fix any problems I might have in the future. James Salvo 11/4/24
Ola found the problem quickly and then took the time to explain how he could simplify the thermostat. He them customized it to my specifications and explained how to override & make adjustments if necessary.
I’m repeating some of this because 2 different technician’s came to the house. Got to hand it to Rudd Heating Air Plumbing. Called one day and they were here the next day. Jessie was a pro came in booted up and troubleshot an corrected problem with A/C unit. Throughly inspected both units. Pointed out some things I should look out for in the future. What needs my attention in the near future. Professional. They take pics of everything and explains what’s right an what was fixed. I was shown an estimate for future work to be completed. I’m a new customer and if this is the way they work plan on me being a long term customer. Thank you for pease of mind.
Our AC went out last night after hours. I was able to text Rudd Heating and Air and got a fast response. Rudd sent Ed Casey to check the system. Ed has serviced our system in the past, and is always knowledgeable about the system. He was able to diagnose the problem and get an order in for the part. I don't trust my system with anyone else, but Rudd.
