Air Conditioning Repair, Maintenance and Installation in Rocky Mount, NC

Everything We Do for Central AC, in One Place

Eastern North Carolina summers put a central air conditioner under load for months at a time, and the systems that make it through are the ones that get looked at before they fail. Metro Maintenance has been servicing air conditioning in Rocky Mount since 1986. Whether you need a repair today, an annual tune-up, or a written quote on a replacement, start here and pick the service you need. Remember, All Work is Guaranteed.

Our Air Conditioning Services

Three ways we work on central AC. Follow the one that matches what you need.

AC Repair

Warm air, water leaks, frozen coils, a system that runs but will not cool. We diagnose the fault and repair at the component level, on all makes and models. Same-day repair is often available during business hours.

AC Tune-Ups and Maintenance

An annual tune-up before the cooling season is what keeps small problems from becoming July breakdowns. We clean, test and measure the system, and tell you what we found rather than just handing you a checklist.

Tune-Up Details

AC Installation and Replacement

New installs and replacements for systems at the end of their service life. We size the system for your space, handle any ductwork the job needs, and put the options in front of you in writing before you commit.

One Company for HVAC, Plumbing and Electrical

Metro Maintenance is a rare single-source contractor: the same company that services your air conditioner also handles your plumbing and your electrical panel. When an AC problem turns out to be an electrical one, which happens more often than most homeowners expect, there is no second contractor to schedule.

Common AC Problems We See Here

  • The system runs but blows warm air
    Often a refrigerant, compressor or capacitor issue. It will not resolve on its own and running the system anyway can make the repair larger.
  • Ice on the coil or refrigerant line
    Usually airflow starvation or low refrigerant. Shut the system off and call before the compressor takes damage.
  • Water where it should not be
    A blocked condensate drain backs water up into the air handler and, eventually, into the ceiling below it.
  • Short cycling
    The system starts and stops repeatedly without satisfying the thermostat. It drives up the power bill and wears the compressor.
  • Rising bills with no change in use
    Efficiency loss is gradual, which is exactly why it goes unnoticed until a tune-up measures it.

A dirty filter is behind a surprising share of these calls. Changing it every one to three months is the single cheapest thing you can do for the system.

Air Conditioners We Install

As an Armstrong Air Pro Team dealer we install the Armstrong Air residential lineup, including the 4SCU17LE quiet single-stage, the 4SCU16LS high-efficiency two-stage, and the 4SCU23LX high-efficiency variable-capacity system. On the service side we work on all makes and models, with Carrier, Daikin and Rheem coming up most often on repair calls in this area.

Signs It Is Time to Replace

  • Frequent repairs are becoming costly
  • Energy bills are steadily increasing
  • Uneven cooling throughout your space
  • Strange noises or odors from the unit
  • The house feels more humid than it used to

Financing and Maintenance Plans

A replacement is a real investment, so we offer financing options to spread it out. Our maintenance plans cover the annual tune-up so the system stays under warranty conditions and out of trouble.

Frequently Asked Questions
About Air Conditioning Service

What air conditioning services does Metro Maintenance offer?

We repair air conditioners, perform annual tune-ups and maintenance, and install and replace central AC systems for homes and businesses across Rocky Mount and Eastern North Carolina. Each of those has its own page with the detail on what is involved.

Do you offer same-day AC repair in Rocky Mount?

Our hours are Monday through Friday, 8:00am to 5:00pm, and same-day AC repair is often available during those hours. Calling early in the day gives us the best chance of reaching you the same day. Call (252) 977-2730 and we will tell you honestly what the schedule looks like.

Which air conditioning brands do you service?

We service and repair all makes and models. Carrier, Daikin and Rheem come up most often on repair calls in this area, and on the installation side we carry Armstrong Air as a Pro Team dealer.

Should I repair my air conditioner or replace it?

It comes down to the age of the system, how often it has already needed repairs, what the failed part costs relative to the unit, and what it is doing to your power bill. A system that cools unevenly, runs constantly and needs repeated attention is usually a replacement candidate. We give you the numbers for both paths in writing so you can compare them.

Cooling is only one side of the system. If you have a heat pump, the same outdoor unit handles both seasons, so see our heat pump services. For a room the ducted system never cools properly, a ductless mini-split is usually the answer. Businesses should start at commercial services.
