How our NATE-certified technicians deliver quality ac repair results from start to finish.
KIC Refrigeration begins every AC repair in Gahanna, OH 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.
We test capacitors, contactors, relays, and the compressor windings with a multimeter. We connect manifold gauges to measure suction and discharge pressures, calculate superheat and subcooling, and compare all readings to the manufacturer specification for your unit.
Our Gahanna technician replaces the failed part with the correct replacement for your unit make, model, and tonnage. If the failure involves the sealed refrigerant system, we recover the charge, make the repair, pressure test with nitrogen, evacuate to below 500 microns, and weigh in the correct charge of R-410A or the specified refrigerant.
KIC Refrigeration verifies every AC repair in Gahanna, OH 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 Gahanna property — including megohm resistance testing on compressor windings and amperage measurements — to identify the root cause and repair it safely.
