Mini Split Repair FAQ
Everything Charlotte homeowners need to know about mini split repair
How much does mini split repair cost in Charlotte?
Mini split repairs typically cost $200-$800 in Charlotte. Common repairs: refrigerant recharge $300-$600, control board $400-$700, drain cleaning $150-$250. We charge $89 diagnostic fee (waived with repair) and provide upfront pricing. Financing from $45/month.
Why is my mini split not cooling?
Common causes include dirty filters, low refrigerant, blocked outdoor unit, electrical issues, or compressor problems. Mini splits also have error codes that help diagnose issues. We provide same-day diagnostics to identify the exact problem.
Why is water leaking from my mini split indoor unit?
Usually a clogged condensate drain line. Charlotte's humidity creates lots of condensation, and drain lines can clog with algae and debris. Other causes: frozen coils (low refrigerant), improper installation angle, or damaged drain pan. We fix all these issues.
What do mini split error codes mean?
Error codes vary by brand but indicate specific problems: communication errors, sensor failures, refrigerant issues, electrical faults. Our technicians are trained on all major brands and can diagnose codes quickly. Note your error code when calling.
Can you repair all mini split brands?
Yes! We service Mitsubishi, Daikin, Fujitsu, LG, Samsung, Carrier, and other brands. Our technicians have specialized training on ductless systems. We stock common parts for faster repairs in Charlotte.
Why is my mini split making noise?
Normal sounds: whooshing air, clicking when starting/stopping. Problem sounds: grinding (motor bearings), rattling (loose parts), buzzing (electrical), gurgling (low refrigerant or drain issues). We diagnose and fix all noise problems.
How often should mini splits be serviced?
Annual maintenance is recommended—more often if you use it heavily year-round. Charlotte's humidity and pollen require regular filter cleaning (monthly DIY) and annual professional coil cleaning. Our maintenance plans start at $149/year.
Can I clean my mini split filters myself?
Yes! Filter cleaning is easy DIY maintenance. Remove the front panel, pull out filters, wash with mild soap and water, dry completely, reinstall. Do this monthly during heavy use seasons. Professional deep cleaning should still happen annually.
Why is ice forming on my mini split?
Ice indicates airflow restriction or refrigerant problems. Causes: dirty filters, blocked coils, low refrigerant, failed defrost cycle. Turn off the unit immediately to prevent compressor damage. We provide same-day service for icing issues.
Do you offer emergency mini split repair?
Yes! Same-day service available. Mini splits are often sole heating/cooling for spaces like additions and sunrooms. No after-hours fees—same honest pricing. We know you need your mini split working, especially during Charlotte summers.
Why is my mini split remote control not working?
First try: replace batteries and ensure nothing blocks the signal. If that doesn't work, the receiver in the indoor unit may be faulty. We can diagnose and repair receiver issues or provide compatible replacement remotes.
How quickly can you repair my mini split?
Most repairs take 1-3 hours. Simple fixes (drain cleaning, filter issues) take under an hour. Refrigerant work and component replacements take 2-3 hours. We stock common parts for faster Charlotte service.
Should I repair or replace my mini split?
If under 8 years old and repair costs less than 50% of replacement, repair makes sense. For units 10+ years old needing major repairs (compressor, control board), replacement may be smarter. We provide honest recommendations.
What warranty do you provide on mini split repairs?
We provide a 1-year parts and labor warranty on all mini split repairs. We stand behind our work—family-owned and serving Charlotte since 2008.
Why choose Kodiak for mini split repair?
We're certified on all major mini split brands with specialized training. Mini splits require different expertise than traditional HVAC—we have it. No high-pressure sales, just honest diagnosis and quality repairs.
