Starting next week, we’ll be making a small change to our Monday hours. We’ll be closing at 4:30 PM on Mondays to accommodate a family commitment.

Our Tuesday–Friday hours will remain 8 AM–6 PM.

We appreciate your understanding and your continued support of our small, family-owned business. ❤️

Reminder: Turn off your AC when you see ice! 🧊

We can’t properly diagnose the issue if there is ice covering the evaporator coil and refrigerant lines. Leaving it running while frozen can also cause further damage.

If you see ice, turn the system off, let it thaw, and give us a call.

If you’re willing to put up with the heat, you can switch your thermostat to heat to help the ice melt faster.

Is your filter getting dirty way quicker than it seems like it should?

If you have a floor vent underneath a hall closet furnace, open up that vent and take a look!

In this case, we found a whole pile of dust and pet hair underneath the furnace that was getting pulled into the system and clogging the air filter after only one week!

We will be closed Monday, August 24th due to a family matter. We apologize for any inconvenience.

If you have any urgent HVAC issues Monday and live within 30 minutes of Bartlett, we recommend calling Beers-Montgomery HVAC at 901-483-9500.

Thank you for your understanding, and we’ll see you Tuesday!

When a customer texted, “Do you service [neighborhood]? Think my AC is on its last legs.”

We responded, “Yes, I do service that area. What’s your AC been doing? There might still be hope for a repair!”

When we got there, we found a 7-year-old system with a very dirty coil and a failing capacitor.

$189 later, she’s running strong!

Not every struggling AC needs to be replaced. Sometimes, it just needs a little TLC 🫶

Remember that evaporator coil cleaning we posted about the other day? Yesterday, we had a great example of why we prefer to remove the coil when possible for a more thorough cleaning.

This customer called us for a second opinion after another company recommended replacing their evaporator coil and condenser for around $8,000 because their system was leaking and kept freezing up.

When we arrived, we immediately noticed that insulation and other debris had fallen into the coil from the flex duct above it, severely restricting airflow. Because of the tight space, we couldn’t properly reach the back of the coil, so we removed it for a thorough chemical cleaning and cleared out all the debris.

Once everything was clean, we discovered there actually was a refrigerant leak coming from a connector where the evaporator coil screwed into to the refrigerant line. We cut out the faulty connector and brazed the copper tubing back together to repair the leak.

After the repair, the system held pressure and pulled a vacuum with no problem, telling us that there were no significant leaks.

Now the system has better airflow, the leak has been repaired, and the customer has working AC for $7,000 less than the replacement they were quoted.

This AC wasn’t cooling because a poorly mounted filter allowed dust, dirt, and hair to bypass the filter and build up on the blower wheel and evaporator coil. The buildup severely restricted airflow, making it difficult for the system to keep up with the Memphis heat.

In the middle of the video, there may or may not be an unrelated but very important kitten interruption. His name is Max, and he demanded our attention. 😻

We cleaned the blower wheel and performed an in-place evaporator coil cleaning to restore airflow. We would typically prefer to remove the coil for a more thorough cleaning, but that requires opening and re-brazing the refrigerant lines, making it significantly more expensive. For this homeowner, the in-place cleaning was the better option and still resolved the airflow issue.

We also added a small bracket inside the furnace to hold the filter securely in place and help prevent this problem from happening again.

We’ve had a few conversations lately with property managers about pricing, so we wanted to take a moment to clear things up.

At Chillax Heating and Air, our pricing for common services is publicly listed and intentionally set to be fair and competitive, without cutting corners on quality of service.

To keep things consistent for all of our customers, we don’t adjust pricing based on the number of properties owned or match other proprietary in-house maintenance price books.

We’re always happy to work with property managers who value transparent pricing, honest work, and quality repairs.

When we talk about fair, transparent pricing, we mean it! You can find the price list for our most frequently requested services here.

We get asked all the time if we offer a military discount. We heard you loud and clear!

As a veteran-owned small business, we’re proud to announce that we now offer 10% off for active-duty service members and Veterans. Just mention your military status when booking to receive the discount.

*Offer applies to fixed-price services listed on our website: chillaxhvac247.com/pricing

Sometimes the problem isn’t what it seems!

This one had us going in circles for a minute. The capacitor and contactor had both failed, and the fan motor wasn’t reading right either. It started looking like the whole unit might be fried…

Then we checked power at the disconnect and found 240V going in, with only 33V coming out.

Turns out, a short inside the disconnect box was limiting power to the unit.

One small issue can make it look like a much bigger (and more expensive) problem. That’s why proper diagnosis matters.
