    PTAC Repair & Replacement for NYC Buildings

    Packaged terminal air conditioners (PTACs) and through-wall units heat and cool thousands of hotel rooms, apartments and offices across New York City. When they fail one by one, guests complain and residents call the front desk. Com+ Mechanical repairs, maintains and replaces PTACs across the five boroughs and Long Island — single units or whole-building programs, scheduled around occupied rooms.

    Common PTAC Problems

    Unit runs but doesn't cool

    Often dirty coils or filters, a failing compressor or capacitor, or a refrigerant leak. We find the actual cause before recommending a chassis swap.

    No heat in winter

    Failed heating elements, a bad heat-pump reversing valve, or control faults — a priority in occupied buildings during heat season.

    Water leaking into the room

    Usually a clogged drain, a sleeve that isn't pitched correctly, or failed sealing around the sleeve.

    Loud rattling or buzzing

    Loose panels, worn fan motors or a struggling compressor. Noise is a top guest and tenant complaint.

    Frequent cycling or tripped breakers

    Electrical faults, failing controls or an oversized or mismatched unit.

    Many units failing at once

    A sign the building's PTACs are reaching end of life together — time for a survey and phased replacement plan.

    What Is a PTAC Unit?

    A PTAC is a self-contained heating and cooling unit that sits in a wall sleeve under a window, with its own compressor, fans and controls. Many use electric resistance heat; heat-pump PTACs move heat both ways and use less electricity in mild weather. Because a building may have hundreds of them, the right strategy is usually a program — repair what is sound, replace what is failing with matched units, and keep sleeves, grilles and drains in good shape — rather than handling each breakdown as a one-off.

    Compressor, fan motor, control board and thermostat repairs
    Replacement chassis matched to existing wall sleeves and grilles

    Repair or Replace a PTAC?

    Repair when the chassis is sound and the fault is a part like a motor, board or capacitor
    Replace when the compressor fails on an older unit or repairs keep repeating
    Matched replacement chassis can often reuse the existing sleeve and grille
    Heat-pump PTACs can lower winter electric use compared with resistance heat
    Bulk replacement programs reduce per-unit disruption and simplify spare parts
    Lower electric use also helps buildings facing Local Law 97 limits
