Do you really come from San Ramon to Burlingame for a budget mini-split?

Yes. The route is 580 to 92 over the San Mateo Bridge, about 50 minutes, and we bundle Burlingame with our Hillsborough and Peninsula work so the drive is shared across several jobs. A mini-split repair is worth the trip for us and for you.

Is a Cooper&Hunter unit even worth repairing, or should I replace it with a name brand?

If the compressor is healthy, repair it. A flare leak, a board, or a fan motor costs a fraction of a new installed system. I tell you straight when a unit is not worth the part, in a written quote, and the $75 diagnostic is waived either way if you proceed with the repair.

The landlord installed this unit himself. Can you make it work properly?

Usually. I pressure test the line set, fix the flares, pull a proper vacuum, and weigh in the charge to the nameplate. Most self-installed Cooper&Hunter systems in Burlingame were never charged correctly, and correcting that alone transforms how the unit cools.

Cooper&Hunter in Burlingame

Cooper&Hunter heating and cooling in Burlingame.

Cooper&Hunter shows up in Burlingame in a specific place: the ADU behind a mid-century house, the converted garage near the BART station, the condo bedroom that never had ducting. It is a budget ductless line and I treat it as one. Installed and charged correctly it does honest work. Installed off a YouTube video with a flare tool from the discount bin, it leaks.

Most of the Cooper&Hunter calls I take in Burlingame trace back to the original installation. Flare fittings not torqued to spec, line sets never pressure tested, systems topped off by feel instead of weighed in by charge. I fix the machine and I fix the install error underneath it, otherwise you call me again next summer.

Diagnostic is $75, waived with the repair, and my repair work carries a one year warranty even on a value brand.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

Refrigerant leak at the flare connections. The number one Cooper&Hunter failure I see in Burlingame ADUs. The unit cools weakly, then not at all, and the evaporator ices. I nitrogen test, find the leaking flare, re-cut and torque it properly, then weigh in the factory charge. As an EPA 608 Universal tech I do this by the book, not by topping off.
Communication fault between head and condenser. Cooper&Hunter throws a communication error when the signal wire corrodes at the disconnect or when the outdoor main board loses a leg. Salt-tinged Peninsula air speeds up the corrosion. I test the wiring first because half of these calls are a $0 parts fix, and replace the board only when it actually failed.
Moldy blower wheel and weak airflow in the head. In rentals near the Burlingame transit hub these heads run constantly and never get cleaned. The blower wheel loads up with biofilm, airflow drops, and the room smells musty when the unit starts. I pull and clean the wheel and coil, which restores capacity the owner thought was gone for good.
