Your AC is running but not cooling because of airflow, settings, or refrigerant issues. Typical culprits include a clogged filter, a thermostat not set to “Cool,” a blocked outdoor condenser, iced evaporator coils, duct leaks, or low refrigerant (a leak).
Quick checks:
- Replace the air filter.
- Set thermostat to Cool and lower the setpoint.
- Clear 2–3 ft around the outdoor unit and rinse debris off fins.
- Open all supply/return vents.
- If coils are iced, turn AC off to thaw. Low refrigerant needs a pro. Service available in Novato and Petaluma.

The “$5,000 rule” is a rule of thumb that multiplies a system’s age by the repair cost to guide repair vs. replacement. We don’t rely on that shortcut. We evaluate your unit after on-site diagnostics, then compare age, quoted repair, reliability, safety, and efficiency. Lucky’s Comfort Club adds priority service and a high‑performance tune‑up. We serve Novato, San Rafael, Petaluma, and nearby Northern California homes.

Actual costs depend on inspection, system age, efficiency, and parts availability. We provide upfront pricing, free estimates on new cooling equipment, and options like Lucky’s Comfort Club with a 10% discount on heating and cooling services.

"Roberto quickly diagnosed and repaired a heating/cooling duct issue." — Jeff K.
HVAC repair for homeowners usually includes a full-system diagnostic followed by targeted fixes to restore safe, efficient heating and cooling. Common service calls start with checking how the system starts, runs, and shuts down, then addressing the specific fault and verifying operation before the visit ends. After the diagnosis, a technician explains your repair options so you can choose the right path for your system. We handle these calls every week in the Corte Madera area with licensed, insured, and background-checked technicians.
When a repair is needed, it often includes:
- Electrical and control repairs
- Refrigerant leak detection and repair
- Compressor and fan motor repairs
- Thermostat troubleshooting
If you have no heat or cooling, ice on lines, or burning odors, turn the system off and schedule a diagnostic to prevent further damage.

Same-day HVAC repair with Peter Levi Plumbing, Heating, Cooling, Drains is priced per job and quoted upfront after a system evaluation, so the total varies by the fault, parts, and labor. Most costs are driven by whether we’re fixing electrical or control issues, sealing refrigerant leaks, replacing compressors or fan motors, or correcting airflow and efficiency problems. We service Northern California daily and regularly repair systems in and around Sonoma. Members of Lucky’s Comfort Club receive a 10% discount on heating and cooling services. In our experience, a quick thermostat correction can solve some calls, but we still test the whole system before pricing the repair. If a repair needs major parts or repeated leak work, we’ll discuss whether replacement makes more sense. Schedule a diagnostic so we can confirm the issue and give you a firm same-day repair quote.
