About West Columbia, SC - Happy to be your hometown Heating & Air Conditioning Contractor!

West Columbia sits on the western bank of the Congaree River, directly across from downtown Columbia. The Riverwalk draws walkers and cyclists along the water, while Meeting Street and State Street hold restaurants, shops, and offices. Neighborhoods range from mid-century brick ranches to newer townhomes, and every one of them faces long, humid Midlands summers and chilly winter mornings. Mack Heating & Cooling provides residential and commercial HVAC services in West Columbia, SC, including AC, furnace, and heat pump repair, maintenance, installation, and replacement. We serve homeowners and businesses across Lexington County, from the riverfront to the neighborhoods near Columbia Metropolitan Airport.

AC Repair and Maintenance in West Columbia, SC

Summer heat keeps West Columbia air conditioners running for hours at a time. Humidity adds a second load, because the system must pull moisture out of the air while it cools. Older homes with original ductwork often lose cooled air in the attic before it reaches the living space.

Schedule AC repair if you notice:

• Warm air coming from the vents
• Ice forming on the refrigerant lines
• Water pooling around the indoor unit
• Electric bills climbing during normal use
• Rattling, buzzing, or grinding noises

AC maintenance includes coil cleaning, refrigerant checks, condensate drain flushing, capacitor and contactor testing, and airflow measurement. A spring tune-up prepares your system for the first heat wave and keeps it efficient through September.

AC Installation and Replacement in West Columbia, SC

Most central air conditioners last 12 to 15 years in the South Carolina climate. When your system reaches that age and repairs become frequent, replacement often costs less over time. Mack Heating & Cooling performs a load calculation on every home, measuring square footage, insulation, window placement, and sun exposure before recommending equipment.

A correctly sized new AC system gives you:

• Lower monthly cooling costs
• Better humidity removal
• Even temperatures between rooms
• Quieter operation
• Manufacturer warranty coverage

Furnace Repair and Maintenance in West Columbia, SC

Winters in West Columbia stay mild, but cold snaps still push overnight temperatures below freezing. Gas furnaces heat many of the older homes near State Street and the Brookland area, and they need to fire reliably when the temperature drops.

Call for furnace repair when you see:

• Lukewarm air from the vents
• An igniter or pilot that fails to light
• Frequent short cycling
• A burning smell that lingers past startup

Furnace maintenance covers burner cleaning, heat exchanger inspection, carbon monoxide testing, filter replacement, and safety control checks.

A fall tune-up catches worn igniters, dirty flame sensors, and weak blower motors before the coldest nights of the year.

Furnace Installation and Replacement in West Columbia, SC

A furnace older than 15 to 20 years usually burns more gas and needs more repairs. Mack Heating & Cooling calculates your home's heating load and installs a properly sized high-efficiency furnace that lowers winter bills and heats every room evenly.

Furnace replacement brings:

• Lower gas bills
• Fewer winter repair calls
• Steadier, more even heat
• Updated safety controls

Heat Pump Repair and Maintenance in West Columbia, SC

Heat pumps handle both cooling and heating, which makes them a strong match for West Columbia's climate. Because they run nearly year-round, they wear faster than single-season equipment.

Signs your heat pump needs repair:

• The system will not switch between heating and cooling
• Ice stays on the outdoor unit
• Auxiliary heat runs constantly
• Weak airflow in either season

Heat pump maintenance includes reversing valve testing, defrost control checks, coil cleaning, refrigerant verification, and electrical inspection.

We recommend two visits per year, one in spring before cooling season and one in fall before heating season.

Heat Pump Installation and Replacement in West Columbia, SC

A new heat pump delivers efficient heating and cooling from a single system. Mack Heating & Cooling sizes, installs, and replaces heat pumps for homes throughout West Columbia, including ducted systems and ductless mini-splits for additions and converted spaces.

Heat pump replacement offers:

• Year-round comfort from one system
• Lower heating and cooling costs
• Better humidity control in summer
• Quieter, more efficient operation

Ductwork Services in West Columbia, SC

Every AC, furnace, and heat pump depends on ductwork to deliver air. Many older West Columbia homes still run on original ducts that have cracked or pulled apart at the joints. Mack Heating & Cooling inspects, seals, repairs, and replaces ductwork so your equipment delivers the comfort you pay for. Sealed ducts improve airflow, reduce dust, and lower energy bills.

Commercial AC Services in West Columbia, SC

Restaurants, retail shops, and offices along Meeting Street and State Street depend on steady cooling to keep customers and staff comfortable. A failed rooftop unit in July can close a dining room, and warehouses near the airport face the same risk on a larger scale.

Our commercial AC services include:

• Emergency and scheduled AC repair
• Preventive maintenance for rooftop and split systems
• New commercial AC installation
• Full system replacement
• Refrigerant leak detection

Before any commercial AC installation or replacement, we evaluate occupancy, layout, equipment heat load, and electrical capacity so the new system fits the building.

Commercial Furnace and Heat Pump Services in West Columbia, SC

Mack Heating & Cooling repairs, maintains, installs, and replaces commercial furnaces, heat pumps, and gas-fired rooftop units. Every service visit includes burner and heat exchanger inspection, blower and belt checks, and safety control testing. Planned maintenance lets West Columbia businesses schedule service around operating hours and budget for replacements before equipment fails.

Commercial heating service covers:

• Furnace and heat pump repair
• Seasonal preventive maintenance
• New commercial heating installation
• Replacement of aging rooftop units
• Gas pressure and ignition testing
