Air Conditioning Repair for Surrey homes

When the AC quits during a heat wave you need it back fast. CANRO repairs central air conditioners and heat-pump cooling across the region, with certified refrigerant handling and no shortcuts. Surrey is BC's fastest-growing city, with large family homes and new subdivisions across Cloverdale, Fleetwood, Guildford, Newton, Whalley and South Surrey.

Surrey's many newer, larger homes often run bigger HVAC systems and suit heat pumps and high-efficiency furnaces well, while older Whalley and Newton homes are prime upgrade candidates. Surrey has a cool, damp winter and summers that run a touch warmer than the immediate coast, and we factor that into every recommendation. Surrey's larger homes make correct sizing especially important - an oversized system in a big house wastes fuel and heats unevenly.

Signs your AC needs repair

  • The AC runs but the house won't cool down
  • Warm air coming from the vents
  • The outdoor unit won't start, or keeps tripping the breaker
  • Ice on the refrigerant lines or the indoor coil
  • Water pooling around the indoor unit
  • Loud or grinding noises from the condenser
  • Weak airflow or constant short cycling

How we repair your air conditioner

  • A full diagnostic - refrigerant charge, compressor, capacitor, contactor, coils, condensate and controls
  • Upfront pricing before any repair
  • Proper, certified refrigerant handling - no venting, no shortcuts
  • A performance check so it actually cools to spec
  • Honest repair-versus-replace advice for older units

Brands we work with

We install and service Carrier, Bryant, Lennox, Daikin, Mitsubishi Electric, Goodman and American Standard - and we will work on whatever you already have. Our recommendations are based on what fits your Surrey home and budget, never on what we are pushing this month.

Frequently asked questions

Why is my AC running but not cooling?+
Common causes are a low refrigerant charge (from a leak), a failed capacitor or contactor, a frozen coil from restricted airflow, or a dirty condenser. We diagnose the actual cause rather than just adding refrigerant - which only masks a leak.
How much does AC repair cost in Surrey?+
Most repairs run about $150-$700 depending on the part. A failed capacitor is at the low end; a compressor or refrigerant-leak repair is higher. We quote a firm price before starting and apply the diagnostic fee to the repair.
My AC is low on refrigerant - can you just add more?+
We can, but a properly sealed system does not lose refrigerant - so low charge means a leak. The right fix is to find and repair the leak, then recharge to spec. Just topping it up wastes money and vents refrigerant. We will find the leak.
Is it worth repairing an old air conditioner?+
If it is under roughly 10-12 years old and uses current refrigerant, usually yes. Older R-22 units are increasingly costly to service, and replacing one is a chance to switch to a heat pump that adds heating and earns rebates. We give you the honest numbers.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need air conditioning in Vancouver?
Vancouver summers have been getting hotter — the 2021 heat dome saw temperatures over 40°C. Most modern Vancouver homes now install a heat pump that provides both heating and cooling, replacing a furnace and avoiding the need for a separate A/C system.
How much does central A/C cost in Vancouver?
A typical 2.5–3 ton central air conditioner added to an existing forced-air furnace costs $5,500–$9,500 installed. A heat pump conversion (cooling + heating in one unit) is usually a smarter long-term investment given available rebates.
How often should A/C be serviced?
Annual servicing in spring keeps the outdoor coil clean, refrigerant charge correct, and the indoor evaporator coil and condensate drain clear. Skipping service is the single biggest cause of premature compressor failure.
