Do you cover all of Chalmette?

Yes, all of ZIP 70043, along with Arabi, Meraux and Violet in the rest of St. Bernard Parish.

My rebuilt house feels clammy even with the AC on. Why?

Tight houses hold moisture, and an AC removes it only while cooling. A dehumidifier or ventilator usually solves it.

How often should a condenser stand be checked?

At least once a year and after every major storm. Loose straps and settled pads are easy fixes before a storm, not after.

Is my newer system too young to need service?

No. Younger systems still need clean coils, clear drains and a correct charge to last.

Can you check my unit after a storm?

Yes. Leave it off if it took water or a surge, and call; we inspect before any restart.

Short answer

We serve Chalmette, ZIP 70043. Many homes here were rebuilt or raised after Hurricane Katrina in 2005, often tighter than the houses they replaced, with outdoor units on stands and air handlers in the attic. Common calls are AC repairs, re-anchoring outdoor units and fixing clammy, stuffy air in tight homes. The line is answered 24/7.

Tighter rebuilt homes and the air inside them

Rebuilding after 2005 meant newer construction across much of Chalmette, and newer houses tend to be sealed tighter than the old ones. That saves energy, but a tight house also holds onto moisture from showers and cooking, and the air can feel stale by evening. When the AC is sized well but rooms still feel clammy, a whole-house dehumidifier or an energy recovery ventilator usually fixes what the AC cannot.

Raised homes put outdoor units on stands or platforms, which keeps them out of floodwater but leaves them exposed to wind. Stands loosen, straps rust and pads settle over the years. We check the anchoring on every visit, re-strap or replace stands that have weakened, and keep the refrigerant lines and wiring supported where they climb to the unit.
