Air Conditioner Repair
Diagnosed Properly
Running but not cooling, icing up, tripping the breaker, or dead altogether. Ace Refrigeration finds the actual fault before quoting a part, and urgent calls are prioritised on the schedule.
Diagnose First,
Then Quote the Fix
Air conditioning faults are easy to misread. Low refrigerant is a leak, not a top-up. Ice on the coil is usually airflow, not the compressor. We test the system before touching a part, so you pay for the repair that solves it rather than the first plausible guess.
- ✓Leaks Found, Not Just Topped Up A sealed system does not consume refrigerant. If it is low, it is leaking. We locate and repair the leak rather than recharging a system that will be empty again next summer.
- ✓All Makes and Models York, Lennox, Carrier, Trane, Daikin, Bryant and Mitsubishi Electric — ducted or ductless, and regardless of who installed it.
- ✓Priority Scheduling No-cooling calls go to the front of the queue, and we get to you the same business day where the schedule allows.

What We Get Called For
Most air conditioning failures fall into a few categories, and a couple of them get worse fast if the system keeps running.
Running, Not Cooling
Air moving but no cold in it. Usually a refrigerant leak, a fouled condenser coil, or a failed capacitor on the outdoor unit.
Book a Diagnostic →Icing Up
Frost on the indoor coil or the copper line. Shut it off and let it thaw — running it iced can damage the compressor.
Get It Checked →Tripping or Dead
Breaker tripping, unit not starting, or shutting down under load. Electrical faults need testing, not resetting repeatedly.

What Halifax Homeowners
Say About Ace Refrigeration
My friend recommended Mark's company to me for heat pump installation services and all I can say is that if you are installing air conditioning units in Halifax you must go to him. He has a very flexible schedule and can serve clients as quickly as possible. The service was very professional from quotation to installation and it was a very pleasant experience.
We had an urgent heat pump issue at our home and contacted Mark, he responded promptly and scheduled a check in within an hour. Once he arrived he quickly diagnosed the problem and proposed a range of solutions. He also took the time to explain each option, ensuring I understood the implications and costs involved. Will happily recommend to others!
I had an urgent issue with my Heat pump system and contacted Ace Refrigeration for assistance. I must say, their response time was impressive. Within a short period, a technician arrived at my home and immediately got to work. Mark is a truly experienced and skilled person in town. Highly recommended.
