One of the reasons why we’ve been so successful over the years is because we’ve not only helped customers with fixing their system the first time they call, but we become their go-to for all future cooling or heating needs as well. We have the tools and training to handle any type of air conditioning problem, including both large and small issues.

If it turns out that your system needs a complete replacement, we can help you pick out the new unit that’s right for your home and set you up with a professional installation. When you know you can depend on us for everything, we know you’ll give us a call for everything.

Our technicians are trained to diagnose and repair every major type of residential air conditioning system found in Metro Detroit homes:

Central Air Conditioning Systems

The most common cooling system in Oakland County homes. We repair compressors, evaporator coils, condenser coils, refrigerant leaks, capacitors, contactors, fan motors, and electrical components.

Ductless Mini-Split Systems

Mini-splits are increasingly popular in older Michigan homes without existing ductwork, home additions, and converted spaces. We repair all major brands including Mitsubishi, Daikin, LG, and Carrier.

Heat Pump Cooling Mode

If your heat pump isn’t cooling properly in summer, we’ll diagnose whether the issue is the reversing valve, refrigerant charge, coils, or controls. See our dedicated heat pump repair page for more.

Thermostat & Controls

Sometimes the issue isn’t the unit itself — a faulty thermostat, wiring problem, or misconfigured control board can prevent your system from functioning correctly.

Refrigerant Issues

Low refrigerant is one of the most common causes of warm air from vents. Our EPA-certified technicians can detect leaks, perform repairs, and recharge your system. Note: as of January 2025, new systems must use A2L refrigerants (R-454B or R-32) under EPA AIM Act requirements — if your system uses R-410A, we can still service it using reclaimed refrigerant.

Electrical & Capacitor Failures

Capacitors, contactors, relays, and circuit boards are common failure points in Michigan AC systems, especially after long idle periods in winter. We stock the most common parts on our service vehicles for same-day resolution.

For issues related to indoor air comfort — such as humidity imbalances or air quality concerns — explore our indoor air quality services as well.

When you need AC repairs done right as soon as possible, we’re proud to be the name you can turn to. Our Michigan air conditioning repair team is available 24/7 for emergency services. Sometimes, a problem doesn’t wait until business hours to show up, and we don’t think you should have to wait to get it fixed when one does.

How quickly can Cregger respond to an AC repair call in Metro Detroit?

In most cases, we can dispatch a technician the same day you call. For genuine emergencies — such as a complete system failure during a heat wave — our 24/7 emergency line ensures you’re never waiting until the next business day. Call (248) 543-1190 any time.

Do you repair all brands of air conditioning equipment?

Yes. Our technicians are trained to service all makes and models of residential AC systems, including Carrier, Lennox, Trane, Goodman, Rheem, York, Ruud, American Standard, and more. We carry the most commonly needed parts on our service vehicles to maximise first-visit fix rates.

How much does AC repair cost in Michigan?

AC repair costs in Michigan vary widely depending on the issue. Minor fixes such as capacitor replacements or refrigerant top-ups can range from $150–$400. More complex repairs involving compressors or coils can run $500–$1,500+. We provide a detailed upfront quote before any work begins — no surprises. Ask about our financing options if you need flexibility.

My system uses R-410A refrigerant. Can you still service it?

Yes. While the EPA’s AIM Act phased out the manufacture of new R-410A systems as of January 2025, existing systems can still be serviced using reclaimed R-410A refrigerant. Our EPA-certified technicians are fully equipped to handle both legacy and new A2L refrigerant systems.

Should I repair or replace my AC system?

A good rule of thumb is the ‘50% rule’: if the repair cost exceeds 50% of the cost of a new system, replacement is often the smarter investment — particularly if your system is 12+ years old. Our technicians give honest recommendations either way. If replacement makes sense, explore our AC replacement and installation services.

Does Cregger offer AC maintenance plans?

Yes. Our Antler Assurance Membership ($18/month per system, or $199/year) includes annual spring AC maintenance, priority scheduling, and a discount on repairs. It’s the most cost-effective way to prevent breakdowns and extend the life of your system. Learn more on our membership page.
