Default MUNNs A/C -- your experience or recommendation

Well, lucky me, been here one month and my A/C just stopped working -- blowing warm air. There's a label on the unit from Munn A/C out of Fruitland Park. Called them and they installed it in 2008 (Trane unit). I have an appt with them tomorrow to come find out what's wrong. Any body on here have any experience or recommendation on Munn? I did look in the Contractor listings page on here, but didn't see their name; however, that probably doesn't mean they're not a good reliable company and just no one has listed them.

On the phone, the guy I spoke with at Munn said it's probably in need of refrigerant and that it may new new coils. Apparently, refrigerant should never leak. New coils were estimated at over $1k. Don't know if that's reasonable or not. Smart thing to do would be to call 3 companies and get their diagnostics and quotes (each, of course, charge a service fee); however, it's hot in here and I want the A/C fixed as soon as possible.

Basically, want to know if anyone's had experience with Munn and their opinion on the company. Thank you in advance.

Munn's installed our heat pump when our house was built in 2016. We have had Munns service it each year and have been happy with their service and their fee. Others may have had the same or different experience. If yours was installed in 2008, it is 13 years old. I do not know what the life expectancy is for heat pumps and air conditioners. It may be approaching the time to replace it rather than repair it, especially if the repair cost is high.

Mann or Munn’s? If it’s Munn’s, they’ve put in two mini-split systems for us and they do our yearly service calls; we had no issues with them.

If it needs refrigerant, you have a leak. If you need a new evaporator coil, it will be expensive. It sounds like you need a new system. Get 3 quotes. Start with Munn's and Chuck Farrell. I have not heard of Mann, but the only BBB listing shows the company as being out of business. He has 6 Yelp reviews with an average of only 2 stars out of 5.

I think it's Munn's -- probably need to go and try to read the sticker on the A/C again.

Munns is not the cheapest but they have always done what they say and we've had them since 2002.

Thumbs up

We've had Munns for the 7 years we've been here and they've always done satisfactory work for us. Even came out on a Sunday night when ours was blowing warm air like yours. All was covered by warranty.
