Air Conditioning Drainage Block

Over time, condensation builds up in your AC equipment because of its cooling process. This accumulated byproduct must be drained regularly, or the increased amounts of moisture can damage your air conditioner's components.

AC Repair Services Summerville, SC

Air Conditioning Refrigerant Leak

Refrigerant is the substance responsible for keeping your home nice and cool in the summer. When refrigerant levels drop due to a leak, it will affect your AC equipment's ability to cool your home. If your HVAC unit isn't blowing cold air, this could be a reason why.

Heater Keeps Running

This is a common AC issue in South Carolina and the U.S. in general. Sometimes this problem is fixed by switching your thermostat to "auto." If that doesn't work, you may have a broken thermostat or a wiring issue that needs to be addressed quickly.

Burning Odors

However, if you are experiencing a persistent burning smell during the summer months when your air conditioning is on, it could be a serious problem. Turn off your HVAC system immediately and call our office as soon as possible so that we may send out a technician to diagnose your problem.

Common Signs That You Need a New AC Install in Summerville, SC

Trying to figure out whether your air conditioner needs to be repaired or replaced can be a tricky decision to make. Most people have a hard time letting things go, and that includes AC units. It can be hard to know when to let go of the old and welcome in the new. To help save you time and make your decision a little easier, keep the following signs in mind. If you find yourself saying, "that sounds like my AC unit," it might be time for a new air conditioning installation.

Strange Noises

Almost all air conditioners make a bit of low-level noise as they warm up and turn off. However, if you hear loud, unusual noises, it might be a sign that your air conditioner's time is coming to an end. Buzzing and rattling noises are often indicators of a loose part. Grinding and whistling noises may mean something more serious is happening. Because these issues won't dissipate over time, it's crucial to have your air conditioner examined if you hear loud, strange noises.

lm-icon

Frequent Repairs

Summerville AC repair is essential for keeping your air conditioner working efficiently. Sometimes, however, it makes more sense from a cost perspective to install a replacement system. This is especially true if your repairs are racking up. Some AC experts suggest using the "$5,000 rule" if you're considering a new AC install. Simply multiply the age of your air conditioner by the costs you have been paying to repair your unit. If that amount is over $5,000, it may make more financial sense to install a new air conditioner rather than pay for expensive repairs throughout the year.

lm-icon

Higher Energy Bills

If you notice that your energy bill has significantly increased in price, it could be a sign that your HVAC unit is struggling to cool your home effectively. Try to be mindful of your air conditioner's cooling cycles. If you notice frequent cycles, even in the summer, it could be the reason for your increased energy bill. In these cases, it's best to have an expert test your system to see if a repair or replacement option is best for your family.

lm-icon

Age of Air Conditioning Unit

This sign is a no-brainer and one of the easiest ways to tell if you need to install a new AC system. On average, your HVAC unit will have a lifespan of 12 to 15 years. If your unit is more than ten years old and doesn't have the "pizzaz" that it once had, it might be time to think about installing a new air conditioning unit.

lm-icon

R-22 Refrigerant

Old air conditioners usually require a type of refrigerant called R-22. This substance is very harmful to the environment and has been all but outlawed on newer HVAC systems. If your AC unit is old enough to require R-22, you should give serious thought to replacing your system with a newer, environmentally friendly solution.

What Our Clients Are Saying

Protecting Your Investment

Your air conditioning system works very hard every day, all year long to keep your home comfy and cool. Machines that work hard year-round are going to require maintenance and ongoing services to stay operational.

As a family-owned and operated HVAC company in Summerville, SC, we know better than anyone how expensive it can be to maintain an AC unit. We know that money doesn't grow on trees. We also understand that finding last-minute resources to fix an air conditioning system can be challenging. That is why we offer extended warranties for your new or existing AC equipment. With an extended warranty from Action Heating & Air Conditioning, you benefit from repairs, replacement, and additional services covered under warranty.

Heating And AC Services Summerville, SC
If you're having second thoughts about purchasing an extended warranty, consider these points:
  • Generally speaking, HVAC equipment lasts anywhere from 10 to 15 years. However, warranties provided by the factory will often expire before the service life of your cooling unit is over. With an extended warranty, your indoor comfort system is covered even if the factory warranty expires.
  • Having an extended warranty on your AC system gives you the chance to project and plan for any HVAC costs. This helps you balance your budget and anticipate expenses so you aren't caught off guard. Having a warranty will also help protect your budget against increases in labor and parts costs due to inflation.
  • If you're thinking of selling your home, having an extended warranty may help raise your home's value. You may also be able to transfer your extended warranty to your new home if you choose to do so.

SUMMERVILLE, S.C. (WCSC) — Residents and business owners are expressing frustration with the ongoing Main Street Resurfacing Project, saying the unfinished construction is disrupting daily commutes and creating hazardous driving conditions.

Residents say the project has left drivers navigating bumps 2 to 3 inches high where old and new pavement meet.

The South Carolina Department of Transportation, which owns and maintains the road, completed the first layer of pavement but has not finished the second layer, creating inconsistencies in the road surface, the Town of Summerville says.

“They block intersections and I know they have to do that, but then when they leave it’s like nothing’s been done,” Barbara Dunning, a Summerville business owner at one of the intersections on Main Street, said.

Dunning said she drives slowly over the uneven sections to avoid tire damage.

“I drive very slowly over that hump because I don’t want my tires to bust,” she said.

Town officials say they have received numerous complaints about the project’s status and have contacted SCDOT to address residents’ concerns.

“We want to be excellent here at the town. And when a road is just not up to par, then people notice. And we love that. We want a community that says, ‘Hey, this isn’t up to par,’” Christopher Makowski, with the Town of Summerville, said.

Makowski said town officials had a productive conversation with SCDOT about the project’s problems and are using their partnership to expedite completion.

“We had a conversation with SCDOT, and we use that partnership that we have already built throughout all these years to be able to get a response and understand what’s going on and hopefully expedite the process so the project can get done,” he said.

SCDOT declined an interview but said they will continue working with their contractor and expect the project to be completed by the end of the year, weather permitting.

A long-anticipated Publix supermarket is finally turning dirt in Summerville’s Summers Corner development at 1612 Beech Hill Road.

First announced in January, the project generated new buzz Nov. 23 after the neighborhood posted the news on its Facebook page that the site is finally under construction. The post garnering 900 likes and more than 200 shares in just days.

A spokesperson for the Lakeland, Fla.-based grocer said the store expects to hire about 140 employees.

The Publix will be the anchor tenant for the new retail center, with plans calling for a 50,800-square-foot supermarket and eight 1,200-square-foot suites.

At full buildout, Summers Corner is expected to exceed 7,500 homes.

On a related note, Publix will mark its return to Daniel Island next Wednesday at 7 a.m., after a nearly year-long absence that left DI without its own full-service grocery store. The chain closed its original location at 162 Seven Farms Road in late 2024 and rebuilt a larger supermarket in its place in less than 12 months.

Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday

Ruby Tuesday has pulled out of North Charleston leaving the chain with just one Lowcountry restaurant.

A sign on the door at 7400 Northside Drive directs customers to the West Ashley location at 1953 Savannah Highway. Company representatives did not respond to a request for comment.

Maryville, Tenn.-based Ruby Tuesday is owned NRD Capital, a private equity firm. The casual dining closed its Summerville location earlier this year.

Completely floored

Floor & Decor has opened its long-awaited warehouse store and design center at 1155 Holliday Farms Blvd. next to The Home Depot in Highway 17 in Mount Pleasant.

The new store employs about 50 workers and is led by Matthew Peiffer, whose title is chief executive merchant.

The Atlanta-based retailer specializes in flooring for homeowners and professionals. It operates more than 250 warehouse-style outlets nationwide, including South Carolina stores in North Charleston, Columbia, Greenville and Murrells Inlet.

A ribbon cutting is set for Dec. 2 at the Mount Pleasant store, featuring giveaways including a $5,000 floor makeover and 2026 Charleston Southern University football season tickets.

Palm pleasant

Gwynn’s of Mount Pleasant, a mainstay luxury boutique that plans to open a second location in downtown Charleston, has unveiled five holiday window displays with a 1967-era Palm Springs, Calif. theme.

The department store’s inspiration this year is “A Holiday on Holiday” concept, capturing “the golden glow of a retro holiday.”

The mid-century-inspired vignettes include glittering garments, glowing pink flamingos and rotating disco balls that channel holiday department-store spectacles in major cities.

Market to market

A food truck is opening a brick-and-mortar downtown.

Luther’s Market & Eatery, known for its pastas, casseroles and sauces, will take over 227 Rutledge Ave., formerly home to Pinot & Provisions, which closed Oct. 31.

The new tenant is expected to open in January and will offer global comfort foods from the mother-and-son duo of Kiki Luthringshausen and Hudson Luthringshausen. Until then, their pastas and sauces are currently available via their food truck and at Corner Store, a grab-and-go market that opened this summer in West Ashley in the former home of Taco Bartina.

3rd First Watch

First Watch, a breakfast, brunch and lunch spot, will open its third Lowcountry restaurant on Dec. 15 at the Market Place at Carnes Crossroads in Goose Creek. Founded in 1983, the Florida-based chain operates more than 620 restaurants in 32 states, including locations in Summerville, North Charleston and Mount Pleasant.

Mall market

The Joy Market has returned to Citadel Mall in West Ashley with a rotating lineup of local vendors selling holiday goods. It runs Nov. 26–Dec. 30 from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., with gift-wrapping available.

Very neighborly

Park Circle home-decor shop Neighborly will celebrate its one-year anniversary with a holiday market on Small Business Saturday, Nov. 29 with live music, food trucks and 18 vendors.

The event will run from noon to 5 p.m.

Let it snow

Tanger Outlets in North Charleston will bring winter magic to shoppers with “snow flurries” every Saturday from noon to 3 p.m. from Nov. 29 until Dec. 20 near the shopping center’s 40-foot-tall Christmas tree.

Kids can also leave messages for Santa via the mall’s “Santa Hotline.”

No. 1 pick

A national indoor pickleball club operator that's opening in North Charleston next month has announced a partnership with a fashion brand created for the sport's “court-to-cocktail” lifestyle.
