Air Conditioning in Tucson: what's different
Air Conditioning work in Tucson follows the local climate. In hot-dry climates outdoor units run at very high temperatures, which is hard on capacitors, contactors and compressors. Dust and blowing sand clog condenser coils, and rooftop and attic equipment bakes in the sun.
A common Tucson pattern: cooler vs. AC decisions. Many homeowners weigh replacing evaporative coolers with refrigerated air for monsoon comfort. Another: roof leaks around units. Rooftop coolers and package units can leak at roof penetrations.
The air conditioning services Tucson homeowners ask for most are AC Repair, evaporative (Swamp) Cooler Service. Warm air, no cooling, short cycling, noises and breaker trips.
The City of Tucson and Pima County issue mechanical permits for their areas, and Oro Valley and Marana have their own offices. Start evaporative coolers in April, switch to refrigerated air when the monsoon arrives in July, and drain coolers in the fall. AC tune-ups are best done in March.
