AC Repair in Westwood: Find the Fault, Then Fix Only That
Your system is blowing warm air, tripping a breaker, icing over or humming without starting. Westwood Cooling takes that call for Westwood condos, apartments, duplexes and single-family houses. The visit starts with measurement, not a guess: we test the electrical side, the refrigerant side and the airflow side, then tell you which part failed and what it takes to replace it.
A quiet system matters in this part of town. Bedrooms sit close to the outdoor unit, balconies share walls, and a rattling blower or a short-cycling compressor is something you hear all night. When we diagnose, we listen for the noise as well as the fault, so the repair leaves the unit running smoother than it was.
Repair is the default here. If the numbers say a part replacement is sound, we quote the part. If the system has reached the point where repeated repairs cost more than they return, we say so and show you the comparison on paper, and the decision stays yours.
Westwood AC repair cost drivers
The failed part and the building both change the work, so no two repairs cost the same. A basic leak repair with refrigerant replacement runs $580 to $1,200 before labor. Any other repair gets a written quote before work starts, and you approve a number first.
| Item | What moves it |
|---|---|
| Failed part | Part and labor load differ for a capacitor, contactor, fan motor, coil or compressor. |
| Refrigerant leak | Leak location, whether the coil must come out, and the refrigerant the system uses. |
| Refrigerant type | R-22 is no longer produced, so repairs on those systems depend on reclaimed supply. |
| Access | Rooftop, balcony, closet air handler or attic: stairs, ladders and building rules add time. |
| Electrical | Wiring, disconnects and breaker condition around the unit. |
| Ductwork | Airflow restrictions that caused the failure and need correcting too. |
What the repair visit covers
Visits follow one set order so nothing is skipped when the unit is in a tight spot.
- Ask what you saw and heard before the failure, and when it stopped.
- Check the thermostat, breaker, disconnect and low-voltage wiring.
- Test the capacitor, contactor and motors under load.
- Read refrigerant pressures and check the coil for ice or dirt.
- Check the filter, return and supply airflow.
- Write up the cause, the repair and the price, then wait for your yes.
Permits and code on repair work in Westwood
Westwood is a City of Los Angeles neighborhood, so permitted work goes through LADBS. A like-for-like part swap is a repair. Replacing the AC, furnace or ductwork is permitted work, and Title 24 can require duct sealing and a duct leakage test checked by a third-party HERS rater who is not the installer, depending on the scope. LADWP supplies electricity and SoCalGas supplies gas.
Since 1 Jan 2025, new residential split AC systems are built with lower-GWP A2L refrigerants such as R-454B or R-32. If we are repairing an older system, we tell you which refrigerant it holds before the quote is written.
Equipment we repair
We work on central split systems, package units, heat pumps and ductless heads, including Daikin and Mitsubishi. If the fault turns out to be a thermostat, Honeywell, Ecobee and Nest units are ones we wire and test. Building rules for rooftops and balconies are your association's to set, and we plan the visit around them.
Book the diagnosis
Tell us the symptoms and the building, and we schedule a visit that ends with a written quote. You choose whether the repair goes ahead. Call (877) 549-5274.

AC Repair in Westwood
Westwood's 1920s Spanish houses have plaster walls, tile roofs and nowhere to run a duct chase, so a compact ducted air handler in a borrowed closet or concealed ductless heads beats opening soffits through finished ceilings. The condominium and rental buildings answer to association rules on rooftop and balcony equipment, wall penetrations and permitted work hours, and those rules shape the installation more than the load calculation does.

AC Repair in Bel Air
Bel Air estates sit behind private gates on steep canyon lots, so equipment is often staged well below the house and walked up, and the condenser ends up benched into the slope a long way from the air handler. Those distances turn line set sizing and refrigerant charge into a calculated part of the design, while screening requirements and estate landscaping usually settle where the outdoor units can sit before anything else is decided.

AC Repair in Brentwood
Brentwood splits between flat streets of 1950s ranch homes running their original attic ductwork and canyon estates up Mandeville and Kenter where narrow winding road access decides how equipment arrives and in how many pieces. On the canyon lots the condenser sits on a cut pad below the living space with real vertical rise back to the air handler, while the ranch homes below usually need the supply trunk and return resized before new equipment can reach its rated airflow.

AC Installation
We check whether the HOA controls condenser placement and roof access before we spec anything, then install AC sized for Westwood's condos, Wilshire corridor high-rises, and the older single-family homes north of the Village.
Learn More →AC Maintenance
Our Westwood tune-up checks coil buildup, refrigerant pressure, and electrical connections in condo mechanical closets and older single-family systems alike, cleaned and adjusted before heat season.
Learn More →Ductless Mini Split
In Westwood's older single-family homes, student rental conversions, and ADUs, we check if ductwork can run through the walls first. If not, ductless fits, and HOA buildings usually approve it fast.
