Air Conditioning Installation and Replacement
If your air conditioner has reached the point where repairs no longer do the job or your home’s energy efficiency is at an all-time low, you may need a new system. When your Portland home is ready for a new or replacement air conditioner, our Comfort Solutions Heating & Cooling professionals will install your cooling system without delay.
How do you know if you need a replacement air conditioner? Here are some of the most common issues. Your unit is:
- Approaching the end of its life span, usually between 15 and 20 years
Efficiency decreases as your system gets closer to the end of its life. You want to act proactively to plan what your replacement purchase will be instead of acting reactively when your system unexpectedly quits. This can save you money.
- Experiencing more and more repairs
Similar to when your car requires more and more repairs, there comes a time for evaluation. Are you spending more in repairs than it would cost to invest in a new system? If the answer is yes, call and talk to one of our knowledgeable team members to discuss your options.
- Showing signs of running inefficiently
How can you tell if your air conditioner is running inefficiently? A good indication is if your energy bills are increasing and your utility company’s rates remain steady.
This typically demonstrates it’s taking longer for your heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system to cool down your Oregon home to your preferred comfort level. Your system is running longer and using more energy than it should in this case—an increase in energy costs.
If you notice any of these signs with your air conditioner, or if you suspect another reason for needing a replacement, talk to one of our Comfort Solutions Heating & Cooling team members. We will design a system best matched for your comfort needs and budget. Our experts are always here to help you.
We also offer several financing options to help if this is a concern. Contact us to discuss how our team can guide you through our process.
Air Conditioning Repairs
Not having your air conditioner working on the hottest of days in Oregon,can be exasperating. Whenever you need a repair, let our heating and cooling experts quickly remedy it for you.
There are many ways your air conditioner can stop working in its normal capacity. A few symptoms you could experience are:
- Hearing an unusual noise
- Smelling an unusual odor like burning
- Feeling warm air coming from your vents
- Noticing your air conditioner is frozen
- Leaking water
These symptoms mean you have an issue with your air conditioner. Ignoring problems usually only makes them bigger and more costly. Our recommendation is to have one of our Comfort Solutions Heating & Cooling team members promptly diagnose and repair the issue for you.
When you do need our professionals to make a repair, you can count on it staying repaired. We make our repairs right the first time—and only use the highest quality parts and materials when working on your system. Our experts are always here for you.

With annual professional care, you may experience maintenance benefits such as improved energy efficiency, extended system life span, and decreased emergencies.

Thanks!”
“The best service company by far. Marcus arrived for a maintenance call that unfortunately turned into having the AC unit replaced. He was very thorough and explained to me the number of options available for repair or replacement. I decided on the replacement as the unit is 16 years old. His follow up email had further explanations and pictures of the settings.
This is way I am a long term customer.”
“Marcus did a great job assessing and quickly fixing our air conditioner. He called when en route, arrived within the quoted service time and answered all my questions throughly. I have been very happy with the Comfort Solutions service team. Ramona in the office promptly returned my call, and all service technicians who we have been in contact with since purchasing our air conditioner and furnace 7 years ago have been great. Thanks!”
“Marcus was awesome, quick and was able to fix my ac in under an hour. He seemed like a great dude. Would definitely call comfort solutions again.”
“Marcus B. and Doug came to my home to ensure that my air conditioning unit was serviced and ready for this coming Summer. Marcus took the lead and was very knowledgeable. Both men were very polite and went to work quickly. Marcus presented an oral summary of the condition of the unit. Doug was very friendly and personable. When they left , I felt that my heat pump was in good shape and I had answers to a couple of questions. My experience with Comfort Solutions is very positive.”
“Marcus B provided excellent service on site. Great and clean communication, quick with maintenance and patiently answered questions I had. Thank you so much!”
“Mason was great! He explained what he was doing, showed us things that we could/should do, and advised us about a part that he replaced, capisitor.
He also gave us a senior discount, which was very thoughtful. (That no one else has even mentioned over the years.)”
“Arrived promptly, good communication and report”
“Marcus was fantastic. Extremely professional and very knowledgeable about my air conditioning unit. I felt reassured when Marcus left that my unit was in perfect working condition as Marcus was extremely thorough. Thank you!”
