York Appliance Repair

Comfort is More than a Feeling, It's a Promise. At YORK, ensuring your comfort is at the heart of everything we do, and everything we make. That's why YORK home comfort systems are built for the way you live, to be more efficient, easier to use and more reliable. Let's get started!


Air Conditioner Repair

York manufactures appliances that homeowners have come to trust. Even a trustworthy appliance requires occasional maintenance or repair, however. If you’re in need of York appliance repair from experienced professionals, your local Appliance Helper can help.

Air conditioner not cooling 
If the air filter is clogged, air cannot flow properly through the air conditioner. This greatly reduces the cooling capacity of the air conditioner. In addition, if the air filter is clogged, the evaporator coils will frost over. To remove debris from the air filter, try cleaning the filter. If it is not possible to clean the air filter, replace it. 

Why is My AC Fan Not Working? 
The dual shaft fan motor (or circulation fan motor) might be defective. The circulation fan motor has two fan blades: one on either side of the motor. On one side, the fan blade draws in outside air over the condensing coil to dissipate the heat. On the other side, the fan blade directs the air over the evaporator coil. The dual shaft fan motor has bearings that can loosen or bind over time. To determine if the motor bearings are defective, wiggle the motor shaft. If the motor shaft is loose, or if it won’t turn at all, replace the fan motor. 

My AC Compressor's Not Turning On 
The temperature control board provides voltage to the fan motor and compressor. If the control board is defective, it may stop providing voltage to the compressor. Control boards are often misdiagnosed. Before replacing the temperature control board, make sure you check more commonly defective parts—particularly the compressor overload, capacitor and the compressor itself. If you are certain that all of the other components are working properly, replace the temperature control board. 

My AC Won't Turn Off 
The condenser coils dissipate the heat as the refrigerant passes through the coils. If the condenser coils are dirty, they won’t be able to dissipate the heat as effectively. As debris builds up on the coils, the air conditioner will become less efficient, causing the air conditioner to work harder to cool down. If the coils are significantly dirty, the air conditioner will not be able to maintain the proper temperature, and the compressor will run continuously in an attempt to cool the room. Check the condenser coils to determine if they are dirty. If the condenser coils are dirty, clean them. 

Why is my air conditioner making noise? 
When the compressor is wearing out, it generates more noise than usual. When this happens, it is not necessary to replace the compressor—compressors often last for years after they become noisy. However, if you would prefer to have a new compressor, have a licensed professional replace it. 

My AC Remote's Not Working 
First, try replacing the batteries in the remote control. If installing fresh batteries doesn’t solve the problem and you can still operate the air conditioner manually, the remote control might be defective. If you think the remote control is defective, replace it.

How to Replace Your Air Filter 
Before you can replace your filter, check the access panel for the exact filter size as well as the part number. 
When ready, open the filter access panel. 
Remove the old filter, which should be located near the return air duct and blower. 
Insert the new air filter, remember to make certain that it’s installed in the same direction as the previous one. 
Replace the filter access panel. 

Is your thermostat ready? 
Is your thermostat set in the cool position (or warm for winter heat pump operation)? 
If so, is your outdoor air conditioning or heat pump running? 
Is everything on? 

Did the circuit breakers trip to the OFF position? 
Is the outdoor disconnect switch on your outdoor unit in the ON position? 
The disconnect switch is usually a small metal grey box mounted on a wall near the outdoor unit. 
Is the blower motor in your furnace or air handler running when your thermostat is activated? 
Make sure the furnace switch is in the ON position. 
Is there proper airflow? 

Have you changed your filter? 
A blocked filter can cause your unit to shut down due to lack of proper airflow. 
Are the air registers (supply or return ducts) plugged?


Heat Pump Repair

Thermostat problems: First of all, check to see if your programmable thermostat is set to have the heat come on at the right time. If everything seems correct, the problem might be a miscalibration that’s causing your thermostat to read the temperature incorrectly or an electrical problem that’s stopping the thermostat from communicating with the heat pump. In either case, you’ll need to have the thermostat serviced by a professional. 

Power loss: Sometimes, a tripped breaker is the root source of the issue. Check to make sure your breakers are all in the correct position. However, if this happens on an ongoing basis, it’s likely a sign of an electrical failure with the heat pump, which you should have professionally serviced. 

Broken starter capacitor: Take a moment to listen to your heat pump. If you can hear a faint clicking noise that occurs as the heat pump is supposed to be turning on, your problem is likely with the starter capacitor. This component is responsible for transmitting the electrical charge that turns on the motors. You’ll need to bring a technician out to replace it. 

Broken reversing valve: As the name suggests, the reversing valve allows the heat pump to work as both a heater and an air conditioner by reversing the direction of the refrigerant. If the heat pump turns on when you want cool air, but not for heat, this is likely the cause. It will also need to be replaced by a technician.

Keep Your Heat Pump Away From Gutters 
Don’t let the outdoor unit sit underneath a leaking gutter. In the winter, water could drip on top of the unit and freeze solid. This will restrict the air flow and cause the whole unit to freeze-up.

Be Proactive When It Comes To Buildup 
Make it a habit to look at your heat pump during the winter months for signs of excessive ice or snow piled on or around it. Keep the snow, ice and leaves away from the top, sides and bottom of the heat pump. This is especially important after bad weather. The more frequently you keep an eye out for this, the less likely you will have issues. 

Don’t Forget About Emergency Heat 
Turn the thermostat to emergency heat or the off position while removing the buildup. This way your heat pump will stop extracting heat during your maintenance. The thermostat will heat your house while you are tending to the heat pump, but don’t forget to turn it back to normal heating once the unit is clear of snow and ice. 

Practice Caution While Cleaning 
To melt the snow and ice, pour warm water or even cool hose water on top of the pump. Don’t use any sharp objects to pick or knock the ice off the coils. This could cause severe damage and personal injury. If the unit ices up again after cleaning, call for heat pump service. 

Elevate Your Heat Pump 
Heat pumps should be elevated 4 to 8 inches above ground level. This will keep coils clear of snow and ice and allow for proper drainage due to all the condensed moisture (much like an air conditioner).

I live in Kentucky, and had a York air-handler and heat-pump installed at our home in January 2017. I used a “family owed with family values” company to install this air-handler and heat-pump. We spent around $8,000.00 on the install and upgrades from our old “oil furnace” to this new system.. We have had some very cold weather this year, and we have had SEVERAL issues with this new system. In the past two months alone I have had a service tech at my home 6 times, because the system is just not working! The heat-pump won’t run I show on aux heat, but it’s blowing cold air. After having service techs in and out of the house the past few months. I have heard so many stories from these techs about what the issues are it’s becoming ridiculous. One guy was actually here for two hours to tell me there a “wire had come loose” REALLY?? NO IT DIDN’T! Two days after the guy “put the wire back” cam. I had to have someone else come because guess what… you got it the system wasn’t working! The next person came(who by the way is the only person I think who knows anything at all and he is just a service tech they better keep ahold of that one!) told me that the heating elements were completely burned up all three of them, and that they were not working, and probably had not worked in a few days! This “part” was replaced on 3/27/18. Then on 4/16/18 the system again has stopped working! I called the service company on the Sunday 4/16/18 it was 34 degrees outside by the way, and the response I received from them and there 24 hour emergency call center was to turn on my emergency heat! YES my emergency heat that cost a small fortune to run! After a short argument with the owner he then advised me that they would NOT come and fix the furnace because of the argument over the phone! The reason for the “argument” was because when I spoke to the owner of the shop he started telling me that they have NOT been to my home a-lot! (I guess 6 times is not a lot in 2 months it is to me, but I guess we have different standards!) He then told me that I had gone a “good year” before they ever had to come to my house! (which by the way is completely incorrect!) Seriously! I am not sure what kind of companies I am dealing with but as for what I can tell right now the YORK system and the company I picked to do my work are both “failing” I would never recommend this SYSTEM nor the company I had install this system! (which I would not name on this site as I feel it’s not professional!) Has anyone heard of any recalls on an electric system what is this about a lawsuit, is that just for the gas systems? I am going to try and contact York personally to address my issues with the system to see if they have anyone they recommend to come out, and take a look.. I am sure this will fall on “deaf ears”, but I have to do something I am completely frustrated with all of this! I am interested in this “lawsuit” and the details to see if this is something that may be going on with my system as well.

I had a York Affinity 8 series installed in 2011 in southern California (i.e. it doesn’t get heavy use). I had the system maintained annually by professionals. In year 4 the system failed to kick on. It was identified that 3 different parts had failed simultaneously. While the parts were covered under the warranty, labor to replace the parts cost 25% of the original unit price! GASP! I called York several times to see if they’d do anything to offset such a high cost as this points to poor quality and potential for future problem, but they repeatedly declined. Buyer Beware!

I bought this house less than 5 years ago. York Split System 2.5 Ton Heat Pump was 2 years old when I bought the house. In less than 5 years, 2 motors, filter dryer repaired, 5 times called for Freon, after 5th time they found the leak…Condenser Coil. Been waiting 4 weeks for “delay in parts” without air conditioning…in FLORIDA and they cannot tell me when they will receive them. Have had 4 different technicians, all of which told me getting parts for YORK is not easy. Who has time for this!!!

I installed a York Affinity heat pump at my cottage, and it has not worked
I installed a York Affinity heat pump at my cottage, and it has not worked at all in the two years since it was installed. Virtually every part has been replaced and my power bill was over $9000 year to year. Keep in mind that the cottage is not occupied during the winter and the temperature is kept at 50°F. The consumer relations support center has been a useless waste of time and has only served to increase my frustration and anger as a result of having this piece of absolute junk installed at my house. DO NOT buy a system from this company. I cannot stress enough how poorly my system has preformed at my cottage.

My furnace installation went as smooth as could be for having my whole unit
My furnace installation went as smooth as could be for having my whole unit die a few days after Christmas. It's quiet and efficient, and seems to be working out beautifully. It's heating my 2600 square foot home that was built in the 1860s. My bill has not gone up at all and I turned the thermostat up higher than I had it before. The unit is much much smaller than my old one too, which is a nice bonus. I'm very happy with the financing and payment schedule offered also.

I am happy with this purchase because after buying a few appliances that kept breaking down I sort of got used to poor quality. York, however, has changed my perception of these brands. If you take your time to do your research on what you want to buy then there is very little chance of being disappointed. Thanks to York my house is comfortable again.

It’s surprising how many people are complaining about York air conditioners. I feel bad for them because it must be a problem with the installation. I read about the problems that can be caused by poor installation online and made sure I got someone who could be trusted with the job. It’s 2 years down the line now and nothing is the matter, the ac functions just as well as it did when I bought it.

I’ve lived in my house for 25 years now. The old ac had been around for about the same time and had gotten slow over time so I had to replace it. I bought York because my son recommended it to me and so far I like how it works. It is so quiet and does not need to stay on for long to cool the house properly so the utility bill also remains at a reasonable figure.

We replaced our old unit (Rheem) after 10 years because it failed. We chose a York as a replacement because they offered the longest warranty on parts and labor and because it is the brand our contractor recommended. It has been installed for about an hour and is currently working great.

I have been selling and installing York/JCI equipment for decades. We have installed thousands, and as an authorized dealer, we are trained by the factory and stay on top of all the new equipment install requirements. Our warranty program is in two parts. 10 year parts, which does not include labor costs, and then part two is offered at a small additional charge, which includes parts, labor, and anything else needed to make the repairs or replacement of the faulty equipment. When installed properly, these unit simply do not have problems. Out of over 5,000 systems we have had 4 actual warranties, which is an unheard of low percentage industry wide. Each contractor is obligated to explain the system warranties and what is available to them to be sure to have all the correct information. Each review I have seen on this system is of issues that were avoidable if installed or managed correctly by the dealer. True York dealers that do the job right just don't have these issues.
