KIC Refrigeration begins every AC repair in Uxbridge, MA with a systematic assessment. We verify 24-volt control voltage at the thermostat, check high and low voltage wiring for damage, inspect the disconnect for burned contacts, confirm the breaker is properly sized, and visually inspect both indoor and outdoor units before powering up the system for testing.
At your Uxbridge property, our technician tests the run and start capacitors with a capacitance meter, checks the contactor for pitting and voltage drop, measures compressor amperage against rated load amps, and reads suction and discharge pressures to calculate superheat and subcooling against the manufacturer charge chart for current conditions.
We replace the failed component — capacitor, contactor, fan motor, compressor, or metering device — using parts rated for your system. For refrigerant leaks, we locate the leak, repair or replace the leaking component, evacuate, and recharge the system by weight.

Everything you need to know before scheduling ac repair for your property.
AC repair in Uxbridge typically costs $150 to $500 for common component failures including run capacitors ($150 to $250), contactors ($150 to $350), condenser fan motors ($250 to $500), and blower motors ($300 to $600). Compressor replacement is the most expensive repair at $1,500 to $3,500 depending on unit tonnage and whether the system uses R-410A or older R-22 refrigerant. Evaporator coil replacement runs $800 to $2,500 including the refrigerant recovery and recharge. KIC Refrigeration provides a detailed written estimate with itemized parts and labor costs before beginning any AC repair at your Uxbridge property so there are no surprises on the invoice.
The industry guideline is to repair if the unit is under 10 years old and the repair costs less than 50 percent of a new system. AC units over 15 years old — especially those running R-22 refrigerant — are almost always better replaced. R-22 has been phased out of production and the remaining supply costs $80 to $150 per pound, making even minor refrigerant leaks prohibitively expensive to fix. A new 16 SEER2 system uses approximately 38 percent less energy than a 10 SEER unit, and many qualify for the federal energy tax credit. KIC Refrigeration helps Uxbridge homeowners evaluate repair versus replacement based on equipment age, repair history, refrigerant type, and projected energy savings.
Most AC repairs in Uxbridge are completed in 1 to 2 hours during a single service visit. Capacitor and contactor replacements are quick fixes that take 15 to 30 minutes of hands-on time. Fan motor and blower motor replacements take 1 to 2 hours including wiring and testing. Compressor replacement is the most time-intensive repair at 3 to 6 hours because it requires refrigerant recovery with an EPA-certified machine, compressor removal, new compressor installation, nitrogen-purged brazing, pressure testing at 300 PSI, evacuation to below 500 microns, and recharging by weight. KIC Refrigeration arrives at your Uxbridge home with a fully stocked truck to complete most repairs in a single visit.
KIC Refrigeration repairs every major air conditioning brand installed in Uxbridge homes and commercial properties — Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Rheem, Goodman, Daikin, York, Bryant, Amana, Ruud, Heil, and all other manufacturers.
