UST Air Conditioning is the AC refrigerant recharge company Honalo residents call first. Our technicians arrive the same day in most cases, diagnose the real problem and complete most AC refrigerant recharge jobs on the first visit.
Because we work in Honalo every week, our technicians know the equipment common to the Big Island homes, the corrosion the trade winds cause and the parts that fail first. That local experience means faster diagnosis, fewer return trips and repairs that last.
Every AC refrigerant recharge visit in Honalo starts with a full diagnostic and a written, flat-rate quote. You approve the price before any work begins, and if the numbers point toward replacement instead of repair we will show you both so the decision is yours.
From Kona-side heat to the damp, cool evenings of the Puna and Volcano districts, Honalo homeowners need equipment that cools, dehumidifies and, some nights, heats. Salt, vog particulate and heavy rain all shorten equipment life without regular maintenance.

Our restaurant's rooftop unit failed on a Friday. They came that evening, got us cooling again with a temporary fix and replaced the compressor the following week around our hours.
Ryan I., HonaloCalled 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.
Kiana P., HonaloThe dehumidifier they installed ended our mold problem in the closets. Air in the house feels completely different and the AC runs less.
James H., HonaloThe nameplate lists the factory charge; line length changes it. We weigh the charge in and verify it by pressures and temperatures rather than guessing.
It is no longer produced and is expensive. For older R-22 systems we often recommend budgeting for replacement rather than repeated recharges.
Systems are sealed; loss means a leak, most often at the evaporator coil, a fitting or a corroded line set near the ocean.
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.
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.
Live dispatchers 24/7. Same-day service in most areas. Flat-rate pricing before work begins.
