“AC services” covers a range of work depending on what your system needs — from a routine annual tune-up designed to prevent problems, to a diagnostic visit that tracks down why the system stopped cooling, to refrigerant service, component replacement, duct work, or full system installation. Done offers the complete spectrum of residential AC services across the Denver metro, and every visit starts with an honest assessment of your system’s condition and upfront pricing before any work begins.

Preventive Maintenance

Annual AC maintenance is the foundation of a reliable cooling system. A maintenance visit from Done includes inspection and cleaning of the condenser coil, capacitor and contactor testing, refrigerant pressure verification, electrical connection tightening, condensate drain flushing, blower motor inspection, evaporator coil assessment, and a complete system run test. The goal is to find marginal or failing components before they cause a breakdown and to keep the system operating at peak efficiency. For Denver homes, coil cleaning is particularly important given the dry, dusty air and cottonwood season that foul outdoor units.

Diagnostic and Repair Services

AC repair starts with accurate diagnosis. Done’s technicians use instrumented testing — not guesswork — to identify the root cause of a malfunction before recommending a repair. Common repairs include:

  • Capacitor and contactor replacement — among the most common repair calls in summer
  • Refrigerant leak detection, repair, and recharge
  • Condenser and evaporator fan motor replacement
  • Condensate drain clearing and pump replacement
  • Thermostat and control board diagnosis and replacement
  • Refrigerant metering device (TXV or fixed orifice) service
  • Compressor evaluation and replacement

Done also offers emergency AC repair for situations that can’t wait — a system that fails on a 95-degree July afternoon in Denver is a genuine emergency, particularly for households with elderly members, infants, or health conditions.

AC Installation and Replacement

New AC installation includes an equipment sizing calculation (Manual J), equipment selection and recommendation, removal and disposal of the old system, installation of the new condenser and air handler or evaporator coil, refrigerant line service, electrical connection, and system commissioning and testing. Done’s installation team is experienced with Denver’s altitude-specific sizing requirements and ensures the new system is set up correctly for Front Range conditions from day one.

Duct Services

Even a perfectly functioning AC system delivers poor results if the ductwork it relies on is leaking, undersized, or deteriorated. Done offers duct repair and replacement services, including sealing leaky duct connections that allow conditioned air to escape into unconditioned spaces — attics, crawlspaces, and wall cavities. Duct leakage is a particularly common issue in older Denver homes and can account for 20–30% of total cooling energy loss. Duct cleaning is also available to remove accumulated dust and debris from supply and return duct systems.

Specialty Cooling Services

Beyond standard central AC, Done installs and services ductless mini-split systems for spaces without ductwork and heat pumps for homeowners looking to consolidate heating and cooling into one efficient system. Indoor air quality upgrades — filtration, UV systems, humidity control — are available through Done’s IAQ services and integrate directly with your cooling system.

Colorado-Specific Service Considerations

Denver’s environment shapes what AC services look like in practice. At 5,280 feet, altitude affects refrigerant system performance and equipment sizing — a properly trained technician accounts for this on every installation and refrigerant service call. Fine dust and cottonwood debris foul outdoor coils faster here than in more humid climates, making coil cleaning a higher-priority step during maintenance visits. Hailstorms — common and often severe on the Front Range — can physically damage condenser fins and coil surfaces; Done’s technicians know what to look for and can document damage for insurance purposes when needed. These are details that matter and that a locally experienced team handles as a matter of course.

Whatever your AC needs this season, Done has the service for it. Contact Done to schedule service, request a free replacement estimate, or ask about Care Club membership for ongoing maintenance and priority service throughout the year.
