AC Repair Services Across St. Tammany Parish

We diagnose and repair the full range of residential and light commercial AC problems. Our trucks carry a large parts inventory, so many repairs don’t require a return visit. Common failures in this climate include capacitor and contactor failures, refrigerant leaks, blower motor issues, and thermostat malfunctions. Components like these wear faster under the demands of a long Louisiana cooling season, and catching them early can keep a manageable repair from becoming a full system replacement.

When repair isn’t the cost-effective path, we explain why. Our technicians walk through the comparison, help you choose right-sized replacement equipment, and connect you with financing options when needed. We don’t push replacement when repair is the better answer.

How St. Tammany Parish’s Climate Affects Your AC System

Southeast Louisiana runs hot and humid for a larger portion of the year than most of the country. That extended cooling season keeps AC systems running long after northern climates have shut down for fall, and the sustained heat and humidity accelerate wear on key components. Capacitors, contactors, blower motors, and refrigerant lines all degrade faster under those conditions.

High indoor humidity is a separate issue from temperature. A properly functioning AC system controls moisture levels inside the home, and a system that’s struggling mechanically often loses that capacity first. Annual maintenance and prompt repairs aren’t just about comfort. In this climate, they help protect the investment you’ve made in your equipment.

Signs Your AC System Needs Repair

Some problems announce themselves. Others develop gradually until they cause a full breakdown. Either way, the following signals mean it’s time to call a technician rather than wait:

Warm or weak airflow from supply vents despite the system running
Unusual sounds such as banging, rattling, or grinding during operation
Short cycling, where the system turns on and off rapidly without completing a full run
Ice on the evaporator coil, which can indicate a refrigerant or airflow problem
Rising energy bills without a corresponding change in usage or thermostat settings
Water or refrigerant leaks near the indoor or outdoor unit

Delaying repairs when these signs appear can lead to more extensive damage, higher costs, or premature system failure.

Repair vs. Replacement: Making the Right Call

A well-maintained AC system can last anywhere from a decade to two decades, depending on the equipment and how hard it runs. But there’s a point where continued repairs stop making financial sense.

A common industry guideline is to consider replacement when repair costs approach roughly half the cost of a new system, especially for units more than 10 years old. Newer equipment also carries higher efficiency ratings than systems installed a decade or more ago, which may help offset the upfront cost through lower monthly energy bills.

If your system requires frequent repairs, uses components that are difficult to source, or faces a repair bill climbing toward that threshold, replacement may be the more cost-effective path. Our technicians explain both options and the costs involved so you can make the decision that fits your situation. Free estimates are available for replacement equipment.

Hear From Our HappY Customers

Stands out from the rest.
“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
I tried 5 different HVAC contractors over 24 years in this house but in the future I will call Edgar Mejia first.
“I am a meticulous DIY handyman myself and I was completely satisfied with the work that Edgar did for me. He replaced the evaporator coil, transition, plenum box and first 25 ft of duct for the ground floor system. He also lined (and sealed) the return air passage. While he made several work scope additions during the job, Edgar made no attempt to increase the agreed upon price. Edgar approached my project as if he was working on his own system. I highly recommend this HVAC contractor.”

Marvin
Simply put, we had a VERY GOOD experience with Nu-Air and will use them again if/when warranted.
“Two companies before could not fix our problem. It took Edgar less than one hour to determine our Nest Thermostat was incompatible with our old heat-pump.”

Tim T.
My entire family's choice for air-conditioning.
“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.
Extremely knowledgeable, professional and very honest!
“I spoke to Edgar on Wednesday a.m. , explained we were told we needed a new HVAC system. I felt a second opinion was needed. Edgar scheduled to meet that afternoon. After checking the system, he immediately told us the furnace was very good and did not need replacing, he expected it would survive at least another 10 years. He explained a/c problems and they could be repaired with parts . Due to cost of replacement parts and age of unit, we felt it prudent to replace instead of repair. We discussed the brands we were interested in. Edgar had tremendous knowledge on each brand and was thorough in his explanation of each. He didn't try to rush us through our questions. Later that evening he sent quotes on the four we spoke about. The prices were very fair. His crews were booked through mid part of following week. During our initial conversation, I mentioned we had out of town guest coming for the weekend. He was concerned and said he would come by Friday evening or Saturday a.m. to add Freon to get us through the weekend. Thursday evening Edgar called to say he had our parts and he would install Friday morning! We were very happy and impressed that he was concerned for our comfort and weekend company. Edgar completed the job mid afternoon. He left the house immaculate and the house is cool again! He is truly a professional and a great guy. Very happy we found Edgar and we highly recommend Nu-Air!”

Sherry
Customer for life...thank you.
“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.
Immediate & honest service.
“I called Edgar after 6:00 on a Friday night and he came by immediately and had my AC up and running in less than an hour. He was extremely professional and honest, even reviewing a previous invoice from another company for work that we had done to ensure we hadn’t already for what for he completed. I will absolutely call him again and will recommend him to friends and family.”

Chrissy
They are reliable, the work was done when promised and they cleaned up the work area.
“Edgar and crew installed a new electric panel at my house, they also moved a/c return and a few other things. They are reliable, the work was done when promised and they cleaned up the work area and even swept my floor. Thanks for the great work.”
