Durham Region Air Conditioning Repair, Service and Installation
When you have trouble with your air conditioning system, it can be helpful to first troubleshoot the problem before calling a technician. Often, the solution is easy to achieve and you’ll save yourself time, money, and stress. Most commonly, the problem can be fixed by working the electricity flow, controls, or by giving the unit a good cleaning. If you have an Amana air conditioner in your home that’s giving you some trouble, try these simple troubleshooting tips.
Step 1: The controls of the air conditioner might not be set correctly. If you’re trying to activate the unit, you can do so by hitting the “Smart Cool”, “High Fan”, “Medium Fan”, “Low Fan” or “Energy Saver” buttons. By using the up and down arrows, you can adjust the target temperature, making sure it’s cool enough for your home.
Step 2: Make sure the unit isn’t plugged in via extension cords. They can disrupt the power flow as they may not allow enough power. Find the unit’s power cord and ensure it’s plugged directly into an outlet.
Step 3: If the above tip didn’t help, make sure the outlet your using is working properly by checking your circuit breakers as you may have a tripped circuit breaker or fuse. If more than one of your appliances isn’t working, that’s usually a good hint that it’s a problem with the circuit. To fix this, replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker.
Step 4: Allow the air conditioner to warm up properly by letting it run for a few minutes uninterrupted. The compressor usually takes a few minutes to reach its full capacity, much like letting an oven preheat. While waiting, make sure nothing is obstructing the air intake grill (located on the front) as the unit needs adequate air circulation to run properly.
Step 5: The unit may just need to be cleared of dust and debris. Remove the plastic grill by sliding it to the left and remove the filter in the same direction. Then use a damp cloth to remove dust and dirt and then dry it off with a paper towel or dry cloth. Replace the filter if it’s old or clogged, then put back the filter and the grill.

I returned from vacation to find my AC unit on the Fritz. After calling way too many places I connected with TwinTech. Ive used the company in the past for my furnace so I was happy when I recognized Greg at my front door. Hes great and the service is always top notch. Id highly recommend using twintech for honest, superior service in the Durham region. Thanks!

I called Twin Tech when my air conditioning stopped working. Greg came over to diagnose the issue - the same day. He was able to diagnose the issue and resolve it quite quickly. Although it was a quick fix, Greg was very thorough in explaining the issue and provided great advice. Not to mention, I felt very comfortable having Greg in my home - which I consider very important when hiring a service provider. Twin Tech will be my go-to from now on. Thank you!!

They've cleaned my furnace a couple of times and mentioned that the hot water tank standards were going to change soon so I decided to change mine out.
There were a few challenges during the process but the installers handled the problems without missing a stride! I now have really hot water again!

Customer service and knowledge is priority in this industry, and Twintech has it. I've dealt with their team for maintenance and a furnace replacement. They're accommodating and make great recommendations, and came through at a great price over the big guys in the industry. They'll be my next call when I need service or maintenance.

I decided that the noises and age of the existing furnace which was old and not very efficient to replace it. Gave Greg a call and Grant and Greg got to work on it. Because of supply issues with the current heating type that would be an easier install Greg convinced me to change the location of the system and it would provide me better service for heat and efficiency. I had skeptical but went ahead anyway putting trust in Greg And Grant. Greg, Grant and Mitch came through and in 2 days had completely relocated my heating and A/C system. I can honestly say Greg was right my old house has been warmer and more evenly heated as it ever was. For anyone reading this rather long winded review can take my word for it, Twin Tech can take care of your needs.
