AC & Furnace Repair in Huntington Beach, CA

As a Huntington Beach homeowner, you know the coastal area of Southern California enjoys reasonably warm weather year-round. During the peak heat of summer and the colder months of winter, even the best AC and furnace systems need occasional repairs.

Our local Southern California company provides dependable, high-quality air conditioning repairs and furnace repair in Huntington Beach, CA. Every repair starts with a paid diagnosis: we find the cause, show you photos and video, and give you the price before any work.

Furnace repair in Huntington Beach, CA

When your furnace will not light, blows cold air, short-cycles or starts making new noises, we can help. The diagnosis is a paid visit: our tech tests the system, shows you what we found with photos and video, and gives you the price before any work starts. Common fixes include igniters, flame sensors, pressure switches, blower motors and control boards.

Most furnace repairs we do run about $240 to $1,150. If a repair would go above $1,000 on a furnace that is out of warranty, we will tell you it is time to consider replacement, and that estimate is free. Replacements come with a free in-home estimate, permits pulled, our 5-year labor warranty in writing, and Goodleap financing. Learn more on our furnace repair and furnace replacement pages.

Same-day visits are almost always possible, except in extreme weather. We give you a real arrival window when you call or text.

Common problems

Common air conditioning issues and our solutions

Even well-maintained AC systems have problems over time. These are the ones we fix most often in Huntington Beach.

Refrigerant leaks

Low refrigerant or leaks lead to weak cooling. We find and fix refrigerant issues so your AC runs at the right levels.

Dirty filters and coils

Dirt on filters and coils blocks airflow and cuts cooling. Cleaning restores these parts to good working condition.

Electrical failures and worn parts

Aging components lead to electrical faults. We replace worn-out parts to reduce the risk of breakdowns.

Repair or replace?

When the time comes for a replacement, we help you pick the right system for your home and budget, and never push unnecessary upgrades. Replacement estimates are free.

FAQ

AC and furnace repair questions in Huntington Beach

What signs mean my air conditioner may need repair?

Warm air, weak airflow, unusual sounds, failure to start, or repeated cycling are good reasons to schedule a diagnosis. Thomson Air Conditioning can inspect the system and explain whether the problem involves airflow, electrical components, refrigerant, coils, or another cause.

Will Thomson Air Conditioning explain the repair before starting work?

Yes. The diagnosis is a paid visit. We find the underlying issue, show you photos and video, explain the findings in plain language, and give you the price before any work begins. The goal is to help you choose the right fix without pressure.

Can regular maintenance help prevent AC repairs in Huntington Beach?

Routine maintenance can catch wear, dirty filters or coils, airflow problems and other developing issues before they become larger failures. Our $99 tune-up is a filter change and visual inspection; the $159 maintenance visit adds a coil rinse, drain flush, and readings and video of the whole system.

Can you come out the same day?

Almost always, except in extreme weather. Call or text (562) 201-3014 to describe the problem and we will confirm a time.

Should I repair or replace my AC?

If the system is younger and the fix is reasonable, repair usually makes sense. If it is older or keeps failing, we show you both options. Replacement estimates are free, and Goodleap financing is available for homeowners who qualify.

How much does furnace repair cost in Huntington Beach?

A furnace repair starts with a paid diagnostic visit. Our tech finds the cause, shows you photos and video, and gives you the price before any work starts. Most furnace repairs we do run about $240 to $1,150.

Should I repair or replace my furnace?

If your furnace is fairly young and the problem is one part, repair usually makes sense. If a repair would go above $1,000 on a furnace that is out of warranty, we will tell you it is time to consider replacement. That replacement estimate is free.

It was time to service the fan blower unit and had a pleasant experience again working with Glenn and his trainee George. I appreciated the time Glenn took to ensure George's work met the expectations that Glenn would have performed the job to. It's not often companies have seasoned experienced employees that can share their knowledge and experience with new staff. I hope Thomson keeps Glenn around for many more years!

Over the years, we've used Thomson to do major HVAC construction, equipment replacement and service. They are always very thorough, knowledgeable, considerate and the prices are fair. They have a lot of experienced technicians on their team and communicating with the office is easy. We get our system serviced every 6 months (very important) and they actually offer a monthly payment plan for that. I didn't take off a star (because they do offer a fantastic service), but it is difficult if something breaks during the weekend. They won't respond until offices open on Monday. But they will get you in as soon as possible and the service is great.

Very honest company and great customer service. It’s been a long time since we had our AC unit inspected and after all these years it’s still good to go and ready for summer! Ethan did a great job answering all my questions. Quick, efficient and very knowledgeable. Thanks Thomson!

Ethan was great and was very helpful in helping me understand the unit. He came out the same day I called and had parts on his truck to make the repairs right then and there. Ethan was very friendly and I would recommend him and Thomson Air Conditioning to anyone in the future.
