After-hours dispatch, any of these towns, plus the diagnostic fee.

Before you call, try these. Then stop.

These checks are safe for anyone. Anything involving refrigerant, wiring or opening the units is for a licensed technician, so leave it for us.

  • Thermostat: set to Cool, below the room temperature, with a working display. Replace weak batteries.
  • Filter: during smoky spells it can clog in weeks. A blocked filter restricts air and can ice up the coil.
  • Breaker: reset the AC or heat pump breaker once. If it trips again, leave it off.
  • Outdoor unit: brush away pine needles, leaves and debris from the sides. Don't open it up.
  • Ice on the lines: switch the system to Off and let it thaw before you call. Running it frozen risks the compressor.

What we work on

Cooling systems we repair around Leavenworth.

Central air conditioners

The outdoor condenser plus the coil on your furnace. Typical failures: capacitors, contactors, fan motors, leaks and clogged drains.

Most brands serviced

Heat pumps

They cool the same way an AC does, so the same parts can fail, plus reversing valves and defrost controls used in winter.

Heat pumps in Leavenworth →

Ductless mini-splits

Common in cabins and homes without ducts. Wall heads can have drain, sensor or fan problems; outdoor units have fan motors and boards.

Single and multi-zone

Fix it or replace it?

Our honest take on older equipment.

We'll usually recommend the repair when

  • The system is fairly young and one part failed
  • The problem is airflow, a drain or a control
  • The repair price is small next to a new system

We'll suggest pricing a replacement when

  • The compressor has failed on an aging unit
  • It leaks refrigerant year after year
  • It runs on R-22: we no longer use R-22, and it is no longer produced

Replacement estimates are free. Because Leavenworth is on Chelan PUD power, a heat pump that replaces an electric furnace may qualify for a utility incentive; an AC-only system doesn't. New cooling in Leavenworth →

Leavenworth AC repair questions

Straight answers for Upper Valley homeowners.

How much is an AC repair visit in Leavenworth, WA?

On weekdays the dispatch fee is $149 in Leavenworth, Peshastin and Dryden and $189 in Plain and Lake Wenatchee. A diagnostic fee of $72, $100 or $130 is added, depending on time. The repair is priced separately and only done once you approve it.

Will you come to Leavenworth after hours?

Yes. Our after-hours emergency service covers Leavenworth and the Upper Valley. After 5 p.m., on weekends and on holidays the dispatch fee is $330, plus the diagnostic fee.

Do you fix ductless mini-splits in cabins?

Yes. We repair single-zone and multi-zone ductless systems as well as central air conditioners and heat pumps.

Why does my AC struggle when it's smoky out?

With the windows shut, the system runs longer and the filter catches more smoke, so it clogs faster. A clogged filter cuts airflow and can freeze the coil. Check the filter more often during smoky weeks.

Can you add R-22 to my old air conditioner?

No. We no longer use R-22, and it is no longer produced. We can still diagnose the system and give you a free estimate on a replacement.

Are you the AC company for Leavenworth, Kansas?

No. Alpine Aire is based in Wenatchee, Washington, and serves Leavenworth, Washington and the surrounding Chelan County towns.
