Kennesaw AC Repair covers everything from a capacitor swap on a 1990s Performance series AC to a full Infinity heat pump replacement near KSU. We’re Dalton Heating & Air Sandy Springs, an independent Carrier service provider, and we’re not manufacturer-affiliated or factory-authorized, which means we fix what’s actually broken, not what a corporate playbook says to sell. The one thing that makes our Carrier work different in Kennesaw: we know this city’s red clay, slab foundations, and aging R-22 equipment the way a local should. Call (478) 400-5908 for a free estimate, in writing, before any work starts.
Why Kennesaw Residents Choose Us for Carrier Service
Marco Benitez, our owner, spent the better part of two decades working systems across the Southeast before building the crew we run today. He learned Carrier equipment hands-on, not from a manual, and he trains our technicians the same way. We service all nine major residential brands, but Carrier is the one we see most in Kennesaw, from Carrier sales & service calls in older subdivisions to brand-new installations near campus.
We show up inside the stated window, put the price in writing before any work begins, and back every repair with a written guarantee for a full year. If the repair fails within that year, we return at no charge. That’s The Garrison Code we answer to, and it’s been the standard since 2003.

Common Carrier HVAC Problems We Solve in Kennesaw
- High-pressure lockouts on Infinity heat pumps. Kennesaw’s humid summers plus pine pollen and red clay dust mean condenser coils get choked fast. A 24ANB1 running high head pressure in July is a routine call for us.
- Capacitor failure on Performance series ACs. Legacy neighborhoods with original 1990s electrical panels see voltage sags that cook capacitors in two to four seasons. We keep replacements on the truck.
- Rusted heat exchangers on Comfort 48GS furnaces. Slab homes near downtown Kennesaw pull crawlspace moisture into return ducts. That moisture wicks into the heat exchanger and rusts it out faster than a pier-and-beam house would.
- Refrigerant leaks at flare fittings on builder-installed ductless units. Near Kennesaw State University, we find Carrier mini splits leaking at the flare joints because the original install crews skipped torque wrenches during fast tract construction.
- R-22 systems running low every summer. Many 1990s Carrier ACs in Legacy Park and Cedar Crest still run on R-22, which is phased out. When the leak is in the evaporator or lineset, we say replace rather than recharge. The math doesn’t work the other way anymore.
Carrier Service in Kennesaw: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Kennesaw sits on Georgia red clay that expands and contracts with moisture. That movement is hard on slab-on-grade homes, and it creates a failure pattern we rarely see in nearby Marietta’s pier-and-beam construction: copper lineset rub-outs where the refrigerant lines exit the slab. In Legacy Park and other slab-heavy neighborhoods, the shifting soil slowly wears through the copper insulation until the lineset leaks. For a Carrier system, that’s often an R-22 bleed on an already obsolete unit, which changes the repair-or-replace conversation completely. We’ve walked through enough of these in Kennesaw to spot the rub-out before the homeowner has paid for a second recharge that won’t hold. Tell me what it’s doing, and I’ll tell you what it costs, in writing, before we start.
Carrier Models & Products We Service in Kennesaw
We work on the Carrier lines we see across Kennesaw every week: Infinity 24ANB1 heat pumps, Performance 24ACC6 air conditioners, Comfort 48GS gas furnaces, and Infinity 19VS ductless mini splits. For compressor, inverter, and circuit board replacements, we default to genuine Carrier OEM parts. For capacitors, contactors, and fan motors, we use high-quality aftermarket parts when OEM lead times would leave a Kennesaw family sweating through a cooling outage. We stock the common failure parts on our trucks for fast local turnaround.

FAQs – Carrier HVAC in Kennesaw
Your system has a refrigerant leak, and on a 1990s R-22 unit, that leak is usually in the evaporator coil or the copper lineset where it exits the slab. R-22 refrigerant was phased out years ago, so recharging gets more expensive by the season. For most Kennesaw slab homes, the honest answer is our Heat Pump Installation in Kennesaw, not another recharge. Call (478) 400-5908 and we’ll pressure-test the system to find the leak and give you a written replacement price if that’s the better call.
Yes. In Kennesaw, the most common cause is a condenser coil packed with pine pollen and red clay dust, which drives head pressure up until the Infinity control locks the system out. We power-wash the coil, check the dual-run capacitor, and reboot the control. If the fault returns, we dig deeper into refrigerant charge and the outdoor fan motor. Call (478) 400-5908 for a same-day look.
Often, the unit is fine but the ductwork is undersized or poorly balanced from a builder-grade install. Homes near Kennesaw State University were framed fast, and we regularly find return ducts that can’t move enough air for the upstairs. We measure static pressure and airflow before we blame the equipment. Call (478) 400-5908 and we’ll test the system rather than guess.
Yes. For compressor, inverter, and circuit board replacements, we install genuine Carrier OEM parts. For smaller wear items like capacitors and contactors, we may use a high-quality aftermarket part if the OEM piece has a long lead time and your cooling is down. You’ll know exactly what’s going in before we install it. Call (478) 400-5908 for a written parts-and-labor quote.
Short-cycling is usually not a tune-up fix. It’s most often an airflow problem from a clogged filter, a failing limit switch, or an oversized furnace that never runs long enough to pull the humidity out. A tune-up finds the cause and tells you what the actual fix costs, in writing. Call (478) 400-5908 for a flat-rate tune-up with a written report of what we find.
