The Big Island asks more of a heating and cooling system than any other island. Black Sands homes deal with humidity and salt near the coast, vog drifting from Kilauea, and cool nights at elevation where a heat pump earns its keep. We size and service equipment for that range.
Called three companies for an installation quote. UST was not the cheapest but they were the only ones who measured the house and did a load calculation. The system is perfectly sized.
Malia R., Black SandsHeat pump stopped heating on a cold Volcano night. The technician walked me through a reset on the phone first, then came out the next day to replace the defrost board. Really appreciated not being charged for an unnecessary trip.
Kawika O., Black SandsVery thorough. The technician explained what he was checking at each step and left a written report with photos. Signed up for the maintenance plan on the spot.
Kalena W., Black SandsIt varies by tonnage and warranty status. Under manufacturer warranty you pay labor and refrigerant only; out of warranty we compare the repair against a new outdoor unit.
Compressors are sealed and are replaced rather than rebuilt. What we can repair are the start components that often mimic a dead compressor.
Low refrigerant, dirty coils causing overheating, electrical problems and salt corrosion of connections. Annual maintenance prevents most of these.
Almost always a condensate drain clogged by algae, which grows fast in Hawaii humidity. Occasionally a cracked drain pan or a frozen coil. We clear, treat and test the drain on every visit.
Same day for most repair calls and within hours for emergencies. Call (855) 459-5498 and the dispatcher gives you a real arrival window.
Live dispatchers 24/7. Same-day service in most areas. Flat-rate pricing before work begins.
