Rooftop Units & Split Systems

When the AC dies in a restaurant or a retail store, you don't just lose comfort — you lose customers, and in a kitchen the heat gets dangerous fast. We work on the package units on your roof and the split systems behind your building, and we run our own bucket truck fleet, so rooftop access is our equipment on our schedule — not a rental we're waiting on.

  • Full RTU diagnostics — compressors, fan motors, boards, ignition, and controls
  • Economizer inspection and repair — a stuck damper quietly wrecks efficiency and comfort
  • Refrigerant leak detection and repair — we find it and braze it, we don't just top it off
  • Belt, bearing, and blower service; condenser coil cleaning on the roof where it lives
  • RTU replacement and crane sets when the old unit's truly done

Already trust us with your kitchen? Your cold side lives on its own page — commercial refrigeration & ice machine repair — and it's the same one number for both.

Residential AC Repair & Replacement

South Mississippi summer doesn't negotiate. When the AC quits, the house climbs past 85° by mid-afternoon and stays there until somebody fixes it. We run residential calls with the same diagnose-first approach we bring to commercial work: find the actual failure, quote it straight, fix it right.

  • Running but not cooling — dirty coils, low charge, frozen evaporators, failed capacitors
  • Won't start, short-cycling, breaker trips, thermostat and control problems
  • Refrigerant leaks found and repaired, not just recharged every spring
  • Heat pumps and gas furnaces — we do the heating side too

Repair-vs-replace, honestly: if it's a capacitor, a contactor, or a fan motor, we fix it and go. If it's a dead compressor on an old R-22 system, we'll show you the repair number and the replacement number side by side and let you make the call. We don't work on commission, and we'd rather earn the next twenty years of your calls than oversell you today.

New Systems

New System Installation & 0% Financing

When replacement really is the right answer, we size the new system to your actual house or building — not just whatever tonnage was bolted on before — and we do the install clean: sealed connections, proper charge, ductwork checked, condensate handled right. The cheapest install in town is usually the most expensive system to own.

A new system is a real expense, and we're not going to pretend otherwise. That's why we offer financing through Wisetack, including 0% APR options for qualified applicants. Checking your rate takes about a minute and does not impact your credit score — you'll see real terms before you commit to anything, and we'll always quote the straight cash price right beside it.

Diagnostics

Indoor Air Quality & Thermal Imaging

Some HVAC problems you can't see with the naked eye — an overheating connection inside a panel, a duct leak dumping cold air into an attic, insulation gaps letting the summer in. We carry thermal imaging gear on the truck, and it turns guesswork into a picture: hot spots glow, leaks show, and you see exactly what we see before you approve anything.

  • Thermal scans of electrical panels, motors, and connections — heat shows up before failure does
  • Duct leak and insulation-gap detection with the camera, not a hunch
  • Filtration upgrades, UV lights, and fresh-air options matched to your system
  • Humidity control — in this climate, moisture is half the comfort battle

If your house never feels quite right no matter where the thermostat sits, or one room always runs hot, that's usually an airflow or envelope problem — and it's diagnosable.

Maintenance

Planned Maintenance for Businesses

Look at that coil. That's the difference between a unit fighting for its life through August and one that just works. Most of the emergency calls we run trace back to maintenance nobody was doing — clogged coils, slipping belts, drains growing things, filters that haven't been touched since installation.

  • Scheduled coil cleanings, filter changes, and belt/bearing checks
  • Refrigerant charge and electrical checks before the season, not during the failure
  • Condensate drain service — the quiet cause of ceiling stains and shutdowns
  • Photos and notes on every visit, so you have a record of what was done and when

For restaurants, retail, offices, and multi-site operators: a maintenance plan turns your HVAC from a surprise expense into a line item you can budget. We build the schedule around your hours, and PM customers go to the front of the line when something does break.

Common Questions

HVAC FAQ

My AC is running but not cooling. What's going on?

The usual suspects: a dirty condenser coil that can't reject heat, a refrigerant leak that's bled the charge down, a frozen evaporator choking the airflow, or a failed capacitor leaving the outdoor fan or compressor dead while the blower keeps pushing warm air. Shut it off if the indoor coil is iced — running it frozen just makes things worse — and text us a photo of the outdoor unit's nameplate with what it's doing. We'll usually know what we're walking into before we arrive.

Should I repair or replace my AC system?

Depends on what failed and what the system is. Capacitors, contactors, fan motors, and small leaks are almost always worth repairing. A failed compressor on an older R-22 system is where the math flips — you'd be putting serious money into equipment running a phased-out refrigerant. We'll give you the repair number and the replacement number side by side and let you decide. We don't work on commission, and we'd rather fix what's fixable.

How fast can you get here?

We run same-day service when the schedule allows, and no-cooling calls in the middle of a Mississippi summer get priority over routine work. Honest answer: it depends on where you are in our service area and what's already on the board that day. Text 601-337-1069 with your location and what's down and we'll give you a real ETA, not a guess.

Do you work on commercial rooftop units?

Yes — rooftop package units and split systems for restaurants, retail, and commercial buildings are a core part of what we do. We run our own bucket truck fleet, so rooftop access is our equipment, not a rental we have to schedule around. Diagnostics, economizer service, refrigerant leak repair, and full RTU replacement. If you manage multiple locations, we're set up for facility-management paperwork too.

Do you offer financing on new systems?

Yes. We offer financing through Wisetack, including 0% APR options for qualified applicants. You can check your rate before we ever roll a truck — it takes about a minute and checking does not impact your credit score. Terms depend on your approval, and we'll always quote you the straight cash price alongside any financed option.
