From initial contact to final verification — here is how we handle ac repair.
KIC Refrigeration begins every AC repair in Krum, TX with a systematic assessment. We verify 24-volt control voltage at the thermostat, check high and low voltage wiring for damage, inspect the disconnect for burned contacts, confirm the breaker is properly sized, and visually inspect both indoor and outdoor units before powering up the system for testing.
At your Krum property, our technician tests the run and start capacitors with a capacitance meter, checks the contactor for pitting and voltage drop, measures compressor amperage against rated load amps, and reads suction and discharge pressures to calculate superheat and subcooling against the manufacturer charge chart for current conditions.
We replace the failed component — capacitor, contactor, fan motor, compressor, or metering device — using parts rated for your system. For refrigerant leaks, we locate the leak, repair or replace the leaking component, evacuate, and recharge the system by weight.
KIC Refrigeration verifies every AC repair in Krum, TX with a comprehensive performance test. We confirm temperature split, superheat, subcooling, compressor amperage, condenser fan amperage, blower CFM, and thermostat operation. We document all readings and explain the results before we consider the job complete.

An AC that repeatedly trips the circuit breaker is a safety issue that should not be ignored or reset repeatedly. The most common causes are a shorted compressor winding drawing excessive amperage, a failing run capacitor that cannot provide the boost needed for compressor startup, a locked rotor condition from a mechanically seized compressor, a ground fault from damaged wiring or a grounded compressor motor, or an undersized breaker that cannot handle the inrush current. Each reset on a breaker weakens it over time. KIC Refrigeration performs thorough electrical diagnostics at your Krum property — including megohm resistance testing on compressor windings and amperage measurements — to identify the root cause and repair it safely.
KIC Refrigeration repairs every major air conditioning brand installed in Krum homes and commercial properties — Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Rheem, Goodman, Daikin, York, Bryant, Amana, Ruud, Heil, and all other manufacturers.
