AC Rescue: A True Transformation
At 1st Choice Mechanical, we take pride in transforming homes into comfortable havens, especially when it comes to air conditioning systems. Recently, we had the privilege of working with Kim, a valued client who was experiencing significant issues with her AC unit.
The Challenge
When Kim reached out to us, she was in a dire situation. Her air conditioning unit had been malfunctioning for some time, and she reported that her home had been hovering at a sweltering 88°F for over a week. Previous technicians had visited her home multiple times, merely refilling Freon and offering temporary fixes, but they failed to address the root issues. Kim's concerns escalated as she was informed about rusted coil pans and leaks that jeopardized her unit's functionality. Frustrated and uncomfortable, she sought our professional help.

When our technician, Tim, arrived at Kim's home, he performed a comprehensive assessment of her AC system. Using photos and videos, Tim provided Kim with a clear understanding of the situation in her attic. He explained the various options available for both repair and replacement of the unit, ensuring that Kim was well-informed every step of the way.
Despite the daunting news about the condition of her system, our team was ready to help Kim find the best solution. Here’s what we did:
1. Detailed Inspection: Tim thoroughly assessed the air conditioning unit and the attic conditions, discovering the extent of the rust damage.
2. Options Presentation: We presented all available options, highlighting potential repairs and the necessity of replacing the coils due to the significant leaks.

We even took care to shop vac her carpets and stairs, protecting her home from dust and debris.
The Results
Once the installation was complete, we successfully restored Kim’s cooling system to optimal functionality. The repairs not only fixed the immediate concerns but also ensured a longer lifespan for the unit, providing peace of mind for Kim and comfort in her home.

Transforming Hot Rooms into Comfort
Transforming Hot Rooms into Comfort
At 1st Choice Mechanical, we take pride in our ability to tackle even the most stubborn HVAC challenges. Recently, we had the opportunity to work on a project that truly exemplified our commitment to customer satisfaction and innovative solutions.
The Challenge: Persistent Heat Issues
Our client, James S., had been experiencing frustratingly high temperatures in his home for nearly eight years. Despite having replaced his air conditioning unit with the help of another contractor, his indoors still felt uncomfortably warm, particularly in the bedrooms where temperatures soared above 84°F, especially during the scorching Phoenix summers.
James shared his struggles with us:
> "After reviewing my issue with a known HVAC, I replaced the system. My APS bill dropped from $550 to $250. However, two bedrooms were typically above 84° during the summer months."
After consulting with multiple contractors over the years and trying various fixes like upsizing attic supply ducts and installing different types of registers, James felt he was out of options. He reached out to us for help when his air conditioning system failed completely on one of the hottest days of the year.
Our Quick Response and Innovative Solution
When James contacted us, we understood the urgency of the situation. Our technician, Manny, arrived on the scene within 23 minutes—a testament to our commitment to rapid response times. Upon arriving, he quickly diagnosed the immediate issue: a failed fuse. With this easily rectified, Manny then turned his attention to the more complex problem of James's hot rooms.
Manny spent considerable time assessing the ductwork in the attic. Instead of offering another temporary solution to James's persistent problem, he proposed installing a second return register on the hot side of the house—an approach that was not only effective but also explained in clear terms, assuring James that he was in capable hands.
The Transformation
Within a week, our team completed the installation of the new return vent and ductwork. The results were remarkable:
- All rooms in the house now cooled to a comfortable 75°F.
- James saw a monthly decrease of $75 on his APS electric bill.
This successful resolution to James's long-standing discomfort highlighted the effectiveness of a well-designed duct system. Our approach not only addressed the symptoms, but also the root of the problem, bringing relief after years of frustration.
A Happy Customer
James's experience with us was nothing short of transformative. He expressed his gratitude with a heartfelt endorsement of our services:
> "1st Choice Mechanical is not only my first choice for HVAC service; it is now my only choice. From the great office staff to the friendly, knowledgeable field technicians, they go the extra step to ensure your satisfaction at an affordable price."
His satisfaction underscores our commitment as a family-owned and operated HVAC provider in Phoenix, AZ. We believe in honest communication and innovative solutions that truly benefit our clients, and it's always rewarding to hear when we succeed in exceeding those expectations.
