The Big Island asks more of a heating and cooling system than any other island. Fern Forest 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.
The technician found that our ducts were leaking into the attic, which explained the hot back bedroom. Sealing them made a bigger difference than I expected and our bill dropped noticeably.
Robert N., Fern ForestResponsive and polite from the first call to the final handshake. The AC not cooling problem was a frozen coil from a dirty filter and airflow issue, all sorted the same day.
David W., Fern ForestNew heat pump installed for our upcountry home. It cools in the afternoon and heats on the cold nights, and our electric bill is lower than with the old space heaters.

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.
Yes. Mini-splits are our most requested installation on the Big Island because they cool individual rooms efficiently without ductwork and many models also heat.
Salt and humidity corrode electrical parts and coils, and dirty coils make the compressor overheat during the hottest weeks. A spring tune-up prevents most of these breakdowns.
