AC Service FAQs
How Often Should I Schedule AC Maintenance In St. Tammany Parish
In our hot, humid climate, most homeowners benefit from having their AC checked at least once a year, usually before the main cooling season. Regular maintenance helps catch small issues, such as clogged drains or weak capacitors, before they turn into breakdowns on the hottest days. It can also improve efficiency, which may help manage energy bills.
If your system is older, runs almost constantly, or has had several repairs in recent years, you may want to talk with us about whether more frequent checks make sense. We can look at your system’s history and usage and suggest a plan that fits your situation without overselling services.
How Do I Know If I Should Repair Or Replace My AC
The choice between repair and replacement usually depends on the age of the system, the cost of the current repair, and how often you have needed service lately. If your air conditioner is more than 10 to 12 years old and needs a major repair, it may be worth comparing that cost to a replacement that could offer better comfort and efficiency.
During a service visit, we can estimate how much useful life your current system is likely to have and help you weigh short term repairs against long term options. You get clear numbers and our honest opinion so you can decide what makes sense for your home and budget.
Why Is My House Humid Even When The Thermostat Says It Is Cool Enough
High humidity with acceptable temperatures is a common issue in our area. It can happen when the AC is oversized, when it short cycles, or when airflow through the system and ducts is not balanced. In some cases, building leaks or ventilation issues also play a role.
During an evaluation, we look at run times, temperature differences, filter sizing, and duct conditions to see how well your system is actually removing moisture. From there, we can discuss adjustments, repairs, or upgrades that can improve both comfort and indoor air quality.
What Can I Do Between Service Visits To Help My AC
Simple habits can make a noticeable difference. Changing or cleaning filters on the recommended schedule keeps air moving freely and can reduce strain on the blower and coil. Keeping supply and return vents clear of furniture and rugs also helps maintain proper airflow.
It also helps to pay attention to early warning signs like new noises, longer run times, or rooms that suddenly feel different. If something seems off, calling for service early often means smaller repairs and less risk of a full breakdown during extreme weather.
Do You Work On All Brands Of Residential AC Equipment
We service most common brands of central air conditioning equipment used in residential homes. If you have a less common setup or are not sure what type of system you own, you can describe it when you call, and we will let you know what we can do.
Our team focuses on understanding how systems operate rather than memorizing one manufacturer’s layout, which helps us work effectively across a wide range of equipment. During your first visit, we document your system details to make future service smoother.

“Finally, after 4 years of dealing with incompetent air conditioner repairmen I have found a truly knowledgeable technician in Edgar Mejia, owner of Nu-Air Air Conditioning Repair.”George H.
-
“A friend recommended Edgar to me, couldn't do another year without air conditioning. He worked around my hours gave me different options. Very knowledgeable and professional explained everything to me. I decided to replace old system best decision I made!! I would highly recommend him to anyone if you want fast and wonderful service! Customer for life...thank you.”Dana H.
-
“Our unit had gone out sometime in June in New Orleans! Edgar Mejia came out right away and made sure my family and I were taken care of. He was very thorough and efficient. I would call Edgar any and every time for our air conditioning system needs.”Ashleigh B.
-
“My AC went out on a Thursday night in the middle of the summer and after calling several HVAC companies who couldn't get to me until the following Monday, I called Nu-Air. Nu-Air arrived within a couple of hours and diagnosed my problem. Edgar walked me through my options and had estimates to me the same evening. Edgar located equipment at the distributor, picked it up, and worked late into the night to give my wife and I relief from the summer heat. I had my new AC system installed and the house cool before the other companies could even make it out to assess the situation. Nu-Air truly stands out in a world where customer service has mostly been lost.”Kevin
-
“Fixed my air conditioner after hours in a timely manner. I would recommend them to everyone!”Chuck S.
-
“I was referred to Edgar by my sister over 7-8 years ago. At that time he was with a larger company and I began to request him and him only to come out and service my A/C. He recently branched out to begin his own business and I have stuck with him as a loyal repeat customer. He is always on time and easy to get a hold of. I appreciate his honesty more than anything. He is very thorough in his work, he won't just come in and look at one thing, he will survey the entire unit to make sure everything is working properly. I would highly recommend him!”Ronald
-
“As a single mom, one of my biggest worries is being taken advantage of when it comes to home repairs that I know NOTHING about. Edgar is possibly the most honest and knowledgeable professional I have ever met. He not only came the same day I contacted him, but he quickly diagnosed the problem with superior knowledge and skill, and assured me that I did not need a new AC unit when I was convinced I did (and ready to shell out thousands of dollars to replace the whole unit!). I won't even consider using anyone else in the future. The charge for his services were beyond reasonable -- and far less than I've ever been charged in the past. Edgar is the kind of man that makes the world a better place. He made me a lifetime loyal customer in one visit.”CMB
-
“A true professional in our industry. The representative is knowledgeable,informative, and a pleasure to do business with.”Mark
-
“If there were more stars, I would give them. Edgar and his assistant worked from 9:00 in the morning until 5:00 in the New Orleans heat to get my OLD unit working like it was new. They did an excellent job and were so courteous. AND, not only cleaned up there mess, but made sure the floor was swept better than I could do. I would DEFINITELY recommend them to anyone.”Stanley D.
