How a Smithtown AC repair job goes
- Check thermostat, breakers and the disconnect (yes, really, that's step one)
- Measure refrigerant pressures and temperature split across the coil
- Test the capacitor, contactor and fan motor, the usual suspects
- Inspect the condensate drain and float switch
Travel note: Jericho Turnpike and Route 347. Route 347 has more lights than the Christmas display at the Smithtown bull. Our ETA reflects that.

Smithtown AC Repair FAQ
Can you add refrigerant and leave?
We can, but if it's low, it's leaking. Topping off without finding the leak just schedules your next visit.
Why is my AC freezing up?
Usually restricted airflow (a clogged filter or closed vents) or low refrigerant. Turn the system off, let it thaw, and change the filter before you call.
Do you really cover Smithtown hamlet?
Yes. Coming in on the LIRR Port Jefferson branch corridor, give or take a deli stop. If you can name the part that failed, the repair is free. Spoiler: it's a capacitor. Or a pump. You don't know.
