AC Repair in Wilmette
One Sweltering Afternoon in Wilmette… It was 4 PM on a blistering 92 °F July day near Central Avenue, and the Thompson family's AC on St. Johns Avenue simply died—no hum, no cool breeze, just the swelter of a summer heat wave. They're just blocks from the Wilmette Golf Club and a stroll from the Wilmette Metra Station. They called DTSOL Appliance Repair & HVAC, and our technician rolled in from Evanston in under 20 minutes. First, we shut off power at the outdoor disconnect by Highwood Road. Next, we tested the start capacitor and found it bulging and failed. We swapped in a new OEM capacitor, then measured refrigerant pressures—low on the low side, so we tracked and repaired a tiny leak at a brazed fitting. After a proper recharge and tightening loose wiring, we ran the unit through multiple cool-down cycles. By dinnertime, every vent blew a crisp 60 °F breeze. That's AC Repair in Wilmette—fast, friendly, and local.
