Common problems
| What you notice | Usual cause |
|---|---|
| Rooftop unit runs but blows warm air | Usually a failed capacitor or contactor, a dirty condenser coil, or a refrigerant leak. |
| Unit will not start at all | Often a tripped breaker or disconnect, a failed contactor, or a thermostat or control fault. |
| Weak airflow from the vents | Usually clogged filters, a worn or broken blower belt, or a frozen evaporator coil. |
| Energy bills climbing with no change in use | Often dirty coils, an economizer stuck open, or a low refrigerant charge that keeps the unit running longer. |
| Water dripping from the ceiling under the unit | Usually a clogged condensate drain or a cracked drain pan, and sometimes a poorly sealed roof curb. |

When a rooftop unit goes down, the comfort calls start and the energy bills climb. We dispatch licensed commercial technicians the same day across Memphis, Southaven, and DeSoto County to diagnose packaged RTUs, split systems, mini-splits, and make-up air units — and we carry common motors, capacitors, contactors, and controls on the truck so most repairs finish on the first visit.
Every commercial proposal shows you the real numbers: efficiency, expected payback, and the delivered-capacity difference between repair and replacement. We don't push equipment you don't need, and we don't disappear mid-project.
The difference is the license stack. Most HVAC companies subcontract the electrical disconnect, the gas piping, and the curb work. We hold Mississippi mechanical and electrical licenses in-house, so one crew sets the unit, runs the power, pipes the gas, and commissions the system — faster, cleaner, and with one company standing behind it.

Questions
Do you service rooftop units (RTUs) for restaurants and retail?
Yes — packaged RTUs are the core of our commercial work. We repair every major brand and crane-set replacements when a unit is beyond economical repair.
Can you handle the electrical and gas for the unit too?
We can. We're licensed in Mississippi (mechanical #24339-SC, electrical #26772-MC) and Tennessee for both mechanical and electrical work, so the disconnect, the power, and the gas piping are all done by our crew — no subcontractor delays.
Do you offer commercial maintenance contracts?
Yes. Most of our restaurant and retail accounts are on a scheduled PM that covers coil cleaning, belt and motor checks, refrigerant verification, and a written deficiency report each visit.
