24/7 Emergency Service When your AC fails, we answer the phone. Real technicians, real solutions, real relief—day or night.
Common Problems We Solve:
Refrigerant leaks. we locate and repair properly, not just “topped off” to fail again. Capacitor failures that prevent startup or cause overheating. Frozen evaporator coils from airflow restrictions or refrigerant issues. Condensate drain clogs that cause water damage and system shutdowns. Compressor, fan motor, and control board failures diagnosed accurately the first time.
Heat Pumps and Air Conditioners We service both traditional AC systems paired with furnaces and heat pumps that handle cooling and heating. Most cooling-season problems affect both system types similarly—but some issues require heat-pump-specific expertise. Our technicians know the difference.
Humidity Matters Comfort in coastal Georgia isn’t just temperature—it’s humidity. A system that short-cycles or was improperly sized may hit 72 degrees but leave humidity at 65%, and you’ll still feel miserable. We ensure your system runs in a way that actually delivers comfort, not just cool air that still feels sticky.
Honest Repair Decisions A failed capacitor on a five-year-old system? Easy repair. A failed compressor on a fifteen-year-old unit running obsolete R-22 refrigerant? Probably time to replace. We’ll show you the math and let you decide—no pressure, no scare tactics, just honest guidance.
Carriage Heating & Cooling provides 24/7 emergency AC repair for both heat pumps and traditional air conditioning systems throughout the Greater Savannah area.
Seven months of Savannah summer demands air conditioning that works. When it doesn’t, everything stops—sleep, comfort, productivity, patience. Your AC isn’t a luxury here. It’s essential infrastructure.
HVAC Repair Services for Greater Savannah
Carriage: AC Repair Experts
Carriage Heating & Cooling provides 24/7 emergency repair for air conditioners, heat pumps, gas furnaces, and mini-split systems throughout the Greater Savannah area.
Heat Pump Expertise
Heat pumps work overtime in our climate—cooling all summer, then reversing to heat through winter. We diagnose and repair refrigerant issues, defrost cycle failures, reversing valve problems, and auxiliary heat strip malfunctions. When your system runs constantly but never reaches temperature, we find out why.
Hybrid Systems
Dual-fuel systems combine heat pump efficiency with gas furnace backup. When the switchover isn’t working correctly—or either component fails—you need a technician who understands how the whole system integrates, not just the individual pieces.
Ductless Mini-Splits
Ductless mini-splits are everywhere in Savannah now. They’re in garage workshops and sunrooms, bonus rooms and historic homes that never had ductwork to begin with. They’re in additions where running new ducts would cost more than the room itself.
Gas Furnace Service
Gas furnaces deliver powerful, consistent heat regardless of outdoor conditions—but they require specialized knowledge to service safely. Our technicians handle ignition system failures, flame sensor issues, blower motor problems, and heat exchanger inspections with the expertise your family’s safety demands.
AC Repair Service
Properly functioning air conditioning removes humidity as a byproduct of cooling. When systems short-cycle (turn on and off too frequently), they never run long enough to dehumidify effectively. When they’re oversized—a common problem from improper installation—the same issue occurs.
24/7 Availability
Scorching hot days and bitter cold nights in Savannah don’t wait for business hours. When your heating fails at 2 AM on the coldest night of the year, Carriage answers the phone. Real technicians, real solutions—not an answering service.
Carriage: The Air Conditioner Repair Experts
Air Conditioner Repair for Greater Savannah
Refrigerant Issues
Low refrigerant is never normal. It means a leak exists somewhere in your system—and simply “topping off” refrigerant without finding the leak guarantees you’ll be calling again in a few months. We locate leaks, repair them properly, and recharge systems to manufacturer specifications.
Compressor Problems
The compressor is the heart of your system and its most expensive component. When compressors fail on newer equipment, warranty coverage often applies. On older systems, compressor failure usually signals time for replacement rather than repair. We’ll diagnose accurately and give you honest options.
Electrical and Control Failures
Contactors, relays, control boards, thermostats—your system depends on electronics that can fail due to age, power surges, or heat exposure. We diagnose electrical issues systematically to replace only what’s actually failed.
Fan Motor Problems
Both indoor blower motors and outdoor condenser fan motors wear out over time. Symptoms include weak airflow, unusual noises, or systems that overheat and shut down. Motor replacement restores proper operation when the rest of your system is sound.
Capacitor Failures
Capacitors help start and run your compressor and fan motors. They’re inexpensive components that fail frequently—especially in our heat. A failed capacitor can prevent startup entirely or cause motors to overheat and shut down. This is one of the most common repairs we perform, and often one of the quickest to resolve.
Frozen Evaporator Coils
We have all probably seen this from time to time. Ice on your indoor coil means something is wrong—usually restricted airflow or low refrigerant. Running a frozen system causes compressor damage. We identify the root cause, not just the symptom, and resolve the underlying problem.
Condensate Drain Issues
Your AC removes gallons of water from Savannah’s humid air every day. That water has to go somewhere. Clogged drain lines cause water damage, trigger safety shutoffs, and create conditions for mold growth. We clear blockages and ensure proper drainage.
Carriage: The Heat Pump Repair Experts
Heat Pump Repair for Savannah
Refrigerant Problems
A heat pump in heating mode relies on refrigerant to extract warmth from outdoor air. Low refrigerant levels—often from slow leaks that went unnoticed during cooling season—dramatically reduce heating capacity. Your system runs constantly but never reaches temperature.
Reversing Valve Issues
The reversing valve switches your heat pump between cooling and heating modes. When it fails or sticks, you may get cooling when you need heating—or reduced capacity in both directions. This repair requires precise diagnosis to avoid unnecessary part replacement.
Defrost Cycle Failures
Heat pumps naturally accumulate frost on outdoor coils during cold weather. A functioning defrost cycle handles this automatically. When defrost controls fail, ice builds up, airflow drops, and heating output falls off a cliff. We see this frequently on systems that haven’t been serviced regularly.
Auxiliary Heat Problems
Most heat pumps include electric auxiliary heat strips that supplement output during extremely cold conditions. When these fail, your system handles moderate cold fine but can’t keep up when temperatures drop into the thirties. You notice it precisely when you need heat most.
Carriage: The Mini Split Repair Experts
Mini Split Repair for Greater Savannah
Refrigerant Leaks
Mini-split line sets run through walls, often with multiple connections at indoor units. Each connection is a potential leak point. Low refrigerant causes poor cooling, icing, and eventual compressor damage. We locate and repair leaks properly rather than simply recharging a system that will fail again in months.
Control Board Failures
Both indoor and outdoor units contain circuit boards that manage operation. Power surges, moisture intrusion, and simple component fatigue cause board failures. We diagnose board problems accurately to avoid unnecessary replacement of expensive components that aren’t actually failed.
Condensate Pump Failures
When indoor units can’t gravity-drain, small pumps move condensate to an appropriate drain point. These pumps fail, clog, and overflow. We repair or replace failed pumps and address the drainage problems that caused premature failure.
Multi-Zone Issues
If your multi-zone system has one head that won’t cool, another that runs constantly, and a third throwing error codes, you need a technician who understands how these components interact—not someone who will quote you for replacing the entire system because they can’t diagnose it.
Blower Motor and Fan Failures
Indoor unit blower motors run constantly during operation. When they fail—or when fan blades become unbalanced due to dirt accumulation—you’ll notice reduced airflow, unusual noises, or complete zone failure. Outdoor fan motors fail similarly, causing the system to overheat and shut down.
Sensor Malfunctions
Mini-splits use multiple temperature and pressure sensors to modulate operation. A single failed sensor can cause a system to short-cycle, run continuously, or display error codes. Sensor replacement is often straightforward—but only after correct diagnosis identifies which sensor is actually problematic.
Condensate Drain Issues
Your AC removes gallons of water from Savannah’s humid air every day. That water has to go somewhere. Clogged drain lines cause water damage, trigger safety shutoffs, and create conditions for mold growth. We clear blockages and ensure proper drainage.

AWESOME... That's All That needs to be said. I was with another company for years before I came across Carriage. The difference was apparent and I switched all of my HVAC maintenance service to them immediately. I own two homes in … More the area and they have serviced both. The customer service is OUTSTANDING! They take the time to explain the issues at hand in language that I can understand. The technicians that I have dealt with are both TOP NOTCH (Shout Out To James & Christian). I can't say enough about this company. AWESOME & TOP NOTCH EVERY TIME! Thanks Carriage Heating & Air Conditioning.

James, Christian, and team are fantastic! They specialize in emergency HVAC assessment and repairs, which is something the greater Savannah area really struggles with in my experience. They have no trouble making it out to Richmond Hill, … More so if you are ever in a bind, these are the guys to call! They are very prompt, even if it is odd hours. If they don't pick up initially just leave a quick voicemail, they always follow up within a few minutes. There really isn't any comparable within our area for that level of service. They are extremely professional, friendly, clean, and considerate of your home & family's needs.
Stellar technical acumen. James is very experienced and offers fair remedies to resolve your system's problems. General service and maintenance offerings are excellent and his team are well trained in how to properly diagnosis and service equipment.
Finally they are a younger team, independently owned & operated with a passion for the trade. For those not aware private equity has been consolidating local HVAC operators for a while now and increasingly cutting service and charging unreasonable prices; beware of the "family owned" marketing. It is nice to see a new generation embrace the trade and truly understand what service and value mean! -
During this historic heat wave my AC stopped cooling. I saw the Carriage add on WSAV news at 11:15pm. I called, and James was here at 7AM! He quickly identified the problem and made the correcting, and my house is cool again before 8AM. … More Price was fair as well. 10 Stars.
