Zac's Parts, Repairs & Prices.
List of Services
-
Capacitor
- Average part cost $8–$45
- Average replacement cost $80–$400.
- Zac's replacement cost $160 as the Main item. $85 as an aditional item.
Capacitors are essential to keep your HVAC motors running. Just like a Battery, overtime they loose their charge and become weak and when this happens the components they assist consume more power, eventually depleting all its charge and causing your hvac system to fail.
-
Low Voltage switchesList Item 2
- Average part cost $10–$60
- Average replacement cost $150–$400.
- Zac's replacement cost $140 as the Main item. $95 as an aditional item.
Low voltage switches such as contactors, relays, sequencers are used to send high voltage to the component it controls. when these low voltage switches fail. depending on what state the switch was in at time of failure, power can be sent constantly to the component it controls making it run continuously or power can be stopped by the switch causing the component it controls to not run at all.
-
Circuit BoardsList Item 3
- Average part cost $50–$400
- Average replacement cost $150–$700.
- Zac's replacement cost: $175 labor
With exposure to heat or moisture as well as standard wear and tear, a control board may need to be replaced after years of excellent operation. most common reason for board failure is power surges.
-
Blower MotorList Item 4
- Average part cost $100–$500
- Average replacement cost $600–$1500
- Zac's replacement cost $325 labor. (unwiring,uninstalling from unit, removing blower wheel, removing old motor, replacing with new motor, reattaching the blower wheel, reinstalling into the unt, rewiring)
The Blower Motor attaches to the Blower wheel and is responsible for moving all the air through your home. Depending on the type of blower motor, when it fails the motor can run continuously or not at all. common causes of the failure is:
- undersized return ductwork
- Biological growth on the evaporator coil, blower wheel
- system running with a dirty filter for prolonged times.
With proper return/filter size along with good IAQ products installed in the system these blower motors hardly ever fail during the lifespan of the unit.
-
Condenser fan motor
- Average part cost $70–$650
- Average replacement cost $170–$770
- Zac's replacement cost $150 labor
The condenser fan motor is a key componet for removing the heat from the refrigerant inside of the condenser coil. common causes of failure are:
- Dirty condenser coil
- Running with a weak capacitor
- Not oiling the berings (not all motors can be oiled)
Having a routine maintenance and replacing the capacitor once its gone out of manufacturer specifications is the best way to keep the motor operational.
-
Compressor
- Average part cost $800–$3000
- Average replacement cost $1500
- Zac's replacement cost $790 labor
The Compressor is typically called the heart of the system as it is responsible for moving the refrigerant throughout the system. most common reasons for compressor failure are:
- Operating with a weak capacitor
- Operating with a low refergerant charge
- contaminantes (noncondensables) inside of the refrigerant system
- Loss of oil from refergerant leaks
- An unleveled condencer pad
*Important*
Price does include:
- Filter Dryer replacement
- Refrigerant Recovery
- Evacuation of non condensables in the refrigerant lines below 500 microns.
-
Evaporator Coil
- Average parts cost $800–$3000
- Average replacement cost $430-$790
- Zac's replacement cost $450 labor
The Evaporator Coil is responsible for removing the heat from your home. the evaporator coil will need to be replaced if it's leaking refrigerant or the fins have corroded. most common reasons for evaporator coil failure:
- No Indoor air quailty installed inside of system
- Unit holding water from improper Drains
- ammonia
-
Refrigerant line leak repair
- Average fix cost $250–$1550.
- Zac's fix cost $225-$1525 cost depends on leak location, refrigerant prices and amount of refrigerant needed.
Your system may be leaking refrigerant from a brazed joint or a "rub out" Repairing a Freon or refrigerant leak costs between $250 and $1,550 on average, while water leaks cost between $125 and $325. Freon repairs cost so much more than water leaks because Freon is being phased out by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

-
Refrigerant rechargeList Item 1
- Average part cost $450 per jug
- Average labor charge cost $40–$125 per lb of refrigerant needed.
- Zac's labor cost $35 per pound
An air conditioner is a sealed system and does not require refrigerant to be added unless it's leaking. Alot of new manufactured evaporator coils are aluminum and refrigerant under high pressure is able to slowly make it through the microscopic holes in aluminum. For this reason you will usually need a "top off" after the winter season and it should only take about a few ounces to a pound added to get your systems refrigerant levels back to what the manufacturer recommends.
-
Coil cleaningList Item 3
- Average cleaning cost $100–$400.
- Zac's cleaning cost $95-$325
Over time your condencer coil will collect dirt and debris and not all units are homeowner friendly to where you can eaisly maintence them yourself. This dirt and debris causes your system to run longer increasing your utility cost and decreasinng your systems efficenty.
-
Condensate pump replacementList Item 4
- Average part cost $45–$80
- Average replacement cost $100–$450.
- Zac's replacement cost $115
Condensate pump is used when the laws of gravity does not allow the condensation formed by the unit to flow outside freely through the drain line. you mostly will see these under a home or on a mini split system.
