Is your air conditioner blowing warm air, making strange noises, or struggling to keep up with the Kansas heat? Slater Heating and Cooling provides fast, honest AC repair across Wichita and the surrounding area. We diagnose the real problem, explain your options in plain language, and get your home cool again — often the same day. No guesswork, no upselling, and no surprises on the bill.
Wichita summers are no joke. When temperatures climb past 100°F and the humidity rolls in, a failing air conditioner turns a comfortable home into a miserable one fast — and the risk is real for kids, older adults, and pets. That’s why we prioritize cooling emergencies and offer 24/7 service. When you call Slater, you get a real person and a fast response, not a runaround.
Signs Your AC Needs Repair
Catching a problem early often means a smaller, cheaper fix. Call us if you notice:
- Warm air or weak airflow from the vents
- The system runs constantly but never reaches the set temperature
- Loud grinding, buzzing, or rattling noises
- Water leaks, ice on the unit, or a frozen coil
- A sudden jump in your energy bill
- Short cycling — the system turning on and off repeatedly
- Strange or musty odors when the system runs
Common AC Problems We Fix
We service all major brands and the failures that cause most no-cooling calls, including bad capacitors and contactors, refrigerant leaks and low charge, failed compressors, worn blower motors, dirty or frozen evaporator coils, clogged condensate drains, and faulty thermostats. Whatever’s wrong, we’ll find it and fix it right.
Our AC Repair Process
We start with a thorough diagnosis, not a guess. Once we’ve pinpointed the cause, we give you an up-front price before any work begins — so you’re always in control. We’ll never pressure you into replacing a system that can be repaired, and if a repair doesn’t make financial sense, we’ll tell you that honestly and lay out your options.
Repair or Replace? An Honest Answer
If your AC is older, inefficient, or facing a major repair, replacement may save you money over time. We’ll give you a straight assessment based on your unit’s age, condition, efficiency, and repair cost — and a properly sized, high-efficiency recommendation if it’s time. No scare tactics, just the information you need to make a smart decision.

Frequently Asked Questions
How quickly can you repair my AC?
We offer same-day service in most cases, plus 24/7 emergency repairs for no-cooling situations.
Should I repair or replace my AC?
We’ll give you an honest assessment based on the age, condition, and repair cost of your system — and we’ll never push a replacement you don’t need.
Do you offer up-front pricing?
Yes. You’ll know the price before we start any work.
Why is my AC freezing up?
Common causes include low refrigerant, restricted airflow from a dirty filter or coil, or a failing blower. It’s best to turn the system off and call us before it causes further damage.
How often should my AC be serviced?
Once a year, ideally in spring before cooling season. Regular maintenance — from $85/season — helps prevent breakdowns and keeps efficiency high.
