RC has been knowledgeable, fair, timely, and easy to deal with. We have old units and have used him on multiple occasions. We highly recommend him for your AC needs.
RC is very knowledgeable about the AC business. He assisted us with an intermittent issue that was challenging to diagnose. Not only did he identify the failing component, but he also thoroughly checked the entire system. His attention to detail and expertise are impressive. Additionally, RC is very friendly. If you need regular maintenance, repairs, or a new system, be sure to give him a call!
Usually I am reticent to have my name online giving recommendations. But let me tell you that this is no ordinary recommendation. RC Richardson is a man of his word. He is truthful, professional, punctual and he knows his stuff. He might be one of the best we’ve encountered in East Texas. He’s also humble…which is so rare to find these days. I feel that he could have tried to sell us a new unit. He could have charged so much. Instead, he was reasonable and very fair. He was at our home within one hour of me calling. That is also unheard of and especially for someone with his knowledge and skillset. What he brings to the table is integrity and years of hard work and experience. I cannot recommend RC Richardson enough. We will be telling all of our friends. When you find someone like him, you keep his number and call him yearly to come clean your AC unit and do a yearly check. It is so worth it. I hate to share this amazing company too much because I know he will get even busier. But when you find a company like RC’s, you feel selfish to not tell your friends and family. Word of mouth is the only way I do business. And RC Richardson stands by his name and his work.
10/10 would recommend !! Fixed our AC unit within the matter of 20 - 25 mins . Super friendly and very professional! This man surely knows what he is doing !! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
My AC went out on Friday night, first thing Saturday I looked up AC repair business and found that RC's AC Reliable Climate was the only company that had 5 stars and was opened 24 hours. At 7:01 I called RC and was surprised he answered, I told him of my problem and promptly said that he would be here at 10:00 because of the rain. He arrived at 9:00 and immediately went to work, started my AC working and said now lets see what happened. He found the problem and was able to fix it. I was relieved. RC is courteous, very friendly and made me feel comfortable. I will definitely refer his company to anyone who asks for AC repair and I hopefully will become a loyal customer. I did ask to be put on his annual rotation for yearly inspections. It is nice to find a company with a heart.
RC (Royce) knows the AC business. He helped us with an intermittent issue that was difficult to find. He checked the entire system even after finding the failing component. All this to say he is thorough and knowledgeable. Add to that RC is very friendly. Give him a shout when you need regular maintenance, repair, or a new system.
RC is the best and most reliable AC repair guy i have ever had the pleasure to know. Very trustworthy and will not play games or try and over sale a job.
RC, came out immediately on a Sunday spent a few minutes before he found our problem, he came back this morning and got us running quickly, very pleasant and thorough, reasonable, we highly recommend you call if you need AC repair
Awesome guy! Came by my restaurant because it was not cooling enough and got it fix right away !! He did not charge me because it was nothing wrong with it and said it was because someone left the door open too long. Great guy !! 💯 recommend! He is honest and takes pride of his work!!!!! Call him for any needs
I had a new unit installed at my home in Hallsville and couldn't have been more impressed with the quality of the work that was done! R.C. was quick to come out when I needed him to, and even upgraded the wood that the air handler sat on since the old wood was damaged. I highly recommend R.C.'s AC for anything related to HVAC.
Outstanding service! It was just a simple drain clog but he took his time explaining to me what he was doing as well as what I can do to prevent this from happening again. He had no problem answering my questions and giving me some other solutions to help make my system work better and last. We were looking for a reliable small business to help us keep our a/c running well, and I think we found it. We will definitely be using him again in the future.
Fantastic service. Very friendly, knowledgeable, and quick to find a solution.
Royce (RC) is one of the nicest, most honest contractors I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. My grandparents (90 and 97) live in Longview and were without AC for days because American Home Shield gave them the runaround. When I called RC because I was concerned about them being in the heat so long, he immediately sprung to action. He was at their home within minutes, discovered that American Home Shield’s assessment was false, and had their AC working within the hour. I live a long way’s off. My grandfather (97) has respiratory issues, is on oxygen, and has been in and out of the hospital lately. I was so worried about my grandparents; after RC called to tell me he fixed the AC—I cried. He was so compassionate, and informed me how I can hold American Home Shield accountable for what they did (and didn’t do). RC, seriously, from the bottom of my heart, I cannot thank you enough.
Guy knows what he’s doing, great work ethic and great work performed. Thank you RC
R. C. Is passionate about doing a great job, is fair, reasonably priced, and is so knowledgeable and professional. We can wholeheartedly recommend him and use him whenever we need help.
Amazing service. Friendly, professional, knowledgeable! RC was patient with answering my questions and explaining things to me. He showed me how his equipment worked and explained everything he was doing and exactly why it was necessary. Wonderful service all around. We have used him before and will use him again. Highly recommend!!!
I have used R.C. several times and he is always timely and direct. He has not tried to "sell" me on anything, but has been straight forward on his analysis of the situation and attentive to what is important to me and what I consider to be of value.
Had our AC working in no time! Our outdoor unit was not turning on. He found the problem and was able to replace the capacitor that burned out. Great work, great customer service, Highly recommend.
R.C. Was truly amazing. Super honest and treated us very well. Not only did he help us with solutions, but he helped educate up and show us what to look for.
RC came out on a Sunday and got my family out of a bind in the heat! He was very thorough and upfront about what he was doing and why he was doing it! Got us back up and going in no time, RC is as honest as they come! WILL BE USING AGAIN!
On time, good explanations, very professional. It was an great experience. Definitely will recommend his service.
When he came to check my ac, he didn’t just do the bare minimum of what i asked he went above and beyond to make sure everything was right. He was extremely respectful and answered any questions I had without hesitation. If y’all need anything to with your ac or heating make sure to give him a call it wouldn’t be just be a business call , it would feel like a family or friend came and just helped you out.
RC is the best in the business. He texts to confirm the appointment, is always on time, knows the ins and outs of any AC unit. I doubt there is any that he can’t fix. If you want someone dependable, knowledgeable, and just an all around nice guy to work with, he’s your guy.
He was very nice and fast out to service our air-conditioneder. Great prices. Would definitely recommend any time!!
Yesterday my husband and I were stressing out about the affordability of fixing our AC and heater. One company told us it would thousands of dollars and time, and then R.C comes over and it was a huge sigh of relief and fresh of breath air guys. SERIOUSLY!!! He fixed it, without requiring thousands of dollars. He's reliable, friendly, honest, hard working guy. Looking forward to continuing business with. THANK YOU R.C!!!! ~ The Sleight Family
We had a fantastic experience with R.C.’s AC Reliable Climate. R.C. is incredibly responsive, offering prompt service when we needed it most. His pricing is fair and transparent, with no hidden fees or unnecessary upselling. R.C clearly puts customers first and stands behind the products he uses, and services he provides, with genuine care and integrity. Not only did he do an amazing job installing our new unit (inside and out), R. C. also took the time to explain how everything worked and answered all of our questions. R. C. is trustworthy and customer-focused. We will be using R. C. For our HVAC needs for a long time. Highly recommend!
We have used RC for our own home and a rental property several times through the years. We’ve also referred him to family and friends. In each case he has been professional, done exactly what he promised (or more), started and finished on time, and given us excellent prices. That full combination is unheard of now days. I wouldn’t dream of calling anyone else.
You won’t regret calling RC! You can’t match his knowledge and efficiency. His professionalism and thoroughness has Reliable Climate at the top of my list for all my investment properties and home needs. If it can be fixed, he can fix it. As a female, I especially appreciate his transparent pricing and the complete absence of upselling tactics.
You won’t find a more dependable, knowledgeable, and honest service company. RC is the best!
Friendly, fast and very professional service. Affordable prices. RC is the best!
We've used RC for years. He has always gone above and beyond. His service is excellent and his prices are very reasonable.
We needed our air ducts cleaned. CJ did a fantastic job. Excellent work and attention to detail was impeccable. We are super impressed. Thank you!
RC is the most knowledgeable HVAC person you will ever meet. If it’s fixable, he can fix it! Honest and trustworthy and fair prices!
Royce arrived right on time to service my HVAC unit before turning on the heat this fall. He did a thorough inspection and explained exactly what I need to do to keep my old HVAC system running like a top for years to come. I think it takes a special kind of service technician to teach me how to care for my aging system instead of trying to sell me a new one. That's why I would highly recommend R.C.'s AC Reliable Climate to my friends and family.

Most Common Walk-In Cooler Questions
Understanding the operation of your walk-in cooler is key to maintaining a safe and efficient commercial kitchen. We have gathered the most common questions our commercial clients ask about their cold storage systems.
Ice buildup on the evaporator coils is a sign that the refrigeration cycle is being interrupted today. This often happens when the door is left open for too long, allowing humid air inside. The moisture in the air freezes instantly when it touches the cold fins of the evaporator. Another common cause is a faulty defrost timer that is not initiating the melting cycle correctly. You should also check for dirty coils that are restricting the airflow through the unit for you. If the air cannot move, the temperature of the coil drops below the freezing point. Our technicians can quickly diagnose the root cause of the ice and restore your airflow today.
Frozen coils can also be a symptom of a low refrigerant charge in your refrigeration system. When the pressure is too low, the coil gets much colder than it is designed to. This leads to a persistent layer of ice that will eventually block all cooling for you. We use specialized gauges to check your system pressure and identify any leaks in the copper lines. A failing fan motor can also cause ice to form because it stops moving air. Our team carries common fan motors to get your system back in balance as soon as possible. Royce Richardson ensures that every ice-related repair is handled with technical precision and professional care.
If the ice is not cleared quickly, it can cause permanent damage to your compressor unit. The compressor will run constantly to try and reach the set temperature but will fail. This leads to overheating and a potential total system failure for your Longview business today. You should turn the system to the off position and allow the ice to melt. We will then perform a thorough inspection to ensure the problem does not return for you. Our maintenance service includes a check of the defrost components to prevent these issues from starting. Trust R.C.’s AC Reliable Climate to solve your walk-in cooler ice problems with expert service today.
A walk-in cooler that is running without cooling often has a problem with the compressor. The compressor is responsible for moving the refrigerant through the system to absorb heat from inside. If it fails internally, the fans will still spin but no cooling will occur for you. You might hear a humming or clicking sound as the compressor tries to start up today. This could be due to a failed start capacitor or a faulty relay in the controls. Our technicians can test these electrical parts to see if the compressor can be saved. We provide honest recommendations on if a repair or a replacement is the best path.
Low refrigerant levels are another frequent reason a system will run but fail to cool properly. Refrigerant does not wear out, so a low level always indicates a leak in your system. We use electronic leak detectors to find the exact location of the breach in your lines. Once the leak is fixed, we recharge the system to the manufacturer’s precise weight for you. A clogged thermal expansion valve can also prevent refrigerant from entering the evaporator coil correctly today. This blocks the cooling process even if the compressor is running at full power for you. Our team is expert at diagnosing these complex commercial refrigeration issues for our clients.
Dirty condenser coils on the outdoor unit can also lead to a complete loss of cooling. If the coils are blocked by grease or dirt, they cannot release the heat collected. This causes the system to run at very high pressures and eventually shut down for safety. We recommend regular professional cleaning of the condenser to prevent this from happening to your business. Our maintenance plans include a thorough cleaning of all coils to ensure maximum heat exchange today. Royce Richardson understands the urgency of a cooler that is not cooling your expensive products. We serve the Longview area with prompt and reliable repair services to protect your business.
You should have your walk-in cooler professionally serviced at least twice a year for safety. Commercial refrigeration systems work much harder than residential units and require more frequent care for you. A professional tune-up in the spring and fall ensures your system is ready for temperature changes. We clean the coils, check the electrical connections, and verify the refrigerant charge during every visit today. This proactive approach identifies small issues before they become expensive emergency repair calls for you. Most manufacturers require regular maintenance to keep your parts warranty in good standing with them. We provide detailed service records for all the maintenance work we perform on your equipment.
Regular service also helps you maintain the lowest possible energy bills for your commercial facility. A clean system uses less electricity to maintain the required forty-degree temperature for your products. We check the door seals and the insulation to ensure no cold air is being wasted. Even a small drop in efficiency can lead to a significant increase in your monthly utilities. Our maintenance plans are a cost-effective way to protect your budget and your storage today. We serve businesses throughout the Longview, TX area with reliable and professional refrigeration care for everyone. Royce Richardson stands behind our maintenance services with a commitment to quality and absolute honesty.
Safety and compliance are other important reasons to have your cooler serviced by an expert today. We check the health department requirements and ensure your temperature logs are accurate for your business. Our technicians also ensure that your safety release and lighting are functioning perfectly for everyone. We look for signs of mold or biological growth that could contaminate your food products for you. A safe and clean cooler is essential for maintaining your business license and reputation today. We are fully licensed and insured for your protection during every commercial service call we make. Our 5-star service includes a thorough safety inspection of your entire walk-in cooler unit.
Water leaking from the ceiling is usually caused by a clogged or frozen condensate drain. As the evaporator coil removes moisture from the air, it drips into a drain pan. This water is supposed to flow out of the unit through a dedicated drain line. If the line is blocked by dirt or ice, the water will overflow the pan today. This can lead to water dripping onto your products and creating a mess on the floor. Our technicians can clear the blockages and ensure the drain is properly pitched for gravity. We also check the drain heater to ensure the water does not freeze inside.
High humidity inside the cooler can also lead to condensation forming on the ceiling and walls. This often happens if the door is not sealing correctly or is being left open. The warm air from the kitchen hits the cold ceiling and turns into water droplets today. We can inspect your door gaskets and hinges to ensure an airtight seal is maintained. Our team can also adjust the refrigeration settings to help manage the humidity levels better. Proper product storage also helps prevent humidity issues by allowing the air to circulate freely for you. We serve the Longview area with expert troubleshooting for all types of moisture problems.
A leak in the refrigeration lines can also cause condensation or ice to form and then melt. This is a more serious issue that requires immediate attention from a professional refrigeration technician today. We use specialized tools to find the source of the moisture and provide a permanent fix. Royce Richardson understands that water leaks can damage your inventory and create safety hazards for staff. We prioritize these calls to protect your property and your peace of mind every day. Our 1-year labor warranty covers all the drain and sealing work we perform for you. Trust R.C.’s AC Reliable Climate to keep your walk-in cooler dry and safe today.
Most food service walk-in coolers should be maintained between thirty-five and thirty-eight degrees Fahrenheit today. This temperature range is cold enough to prevent bacteria growth while keeping food from freezing. The health department typically requires that all perishable items stay below forty-one degrees at all times. Keeping your cooler at thirty-seven degrees provides a safe buffer in case of frequent door openings. We can help you set and calibrate your digital controller to maintain this exact range for you. Our technicians use high-precision thermometers to verify the air temperature in different parts of the box. Proper temperature management is essential for the safety and quality of your inventory today.
If you are storing specialized products like flowers or certain produce, the temperature may differ. Some items require a slightly warmer environment to prevent wilting or damage from the cold air. We can research the specific storage requirements for your products and adjust the system accordingly today. It is important to have a professional set these temperatures to ensure the equipment runs efficiently. Setting the temperature too low will waste energy and put extra stress on your compressor. We provide expert advice on the best settings for your specific commercial application in Longview. Royce Richardson ensures that your system is configured to protect your products and your budget.
You should check your cooler temperature several times a day to ensure it remains steady today. Many modern systems come with alarms that alert you if the temperature rises above a limit. We can install and configure these monitoring systems to provide an extra layer of protection. If you notice the temperature creeping up, call us for an inspection before it fails. Our team is available 24/7 for emergency support if your cooler temperature enters the danger zone. We are dedicated to helping you maintain the highest standards of food safety and quality for you. Trust us for all your commercial refrigeration temperature management and control needs in Texas.
A door that does not close correctly is usually due to worn-out hinges or a misaligned frame. Over time, the heavy use of a commercial door can cause the hinges to sag. This prevents the door from sitting squarely in the frame and creates a gap for air. We can adjust or replace your hinges to restore the proper alignment and ease of use. Our technicians also check the automatic door closer to ensure it pulls the door shut. A door that stays ajar will lead to ice buildup and high energy bills today. We serve the Longview area with expert door repair and maintenance for all coolers.
Worn or torn door gaskets are another common reason for door issues in walk-in coolers. The gasket is the rubber seal that creates the airtight bond between the door and frame. If it is damaged, it will not seal properly even if the door is shut. This allows cold air to escape and warm air to enter your storage area for you. We can replace your gaskets with high-quality materials that are designed for heavy commercial use today. Our team ensures the new gasket is installed correctly and provides a perfect seal every time. Royce Richardson understands that a good seal is vital for the efficiency of your unit.
Ice buildup on the door frame can also prevent the door from closing and sealing properly. This often happens if the door heater strip has failed or is not getting power. The heater strip keeps the frame warm enough to prevent frost from forming on the metal. We can test and replace your heater strips to ensure your door stays clear of ice today. Our maintenance service includes a check of the door hardware and the heating components for you. You will enjoy a more efficient cooler and an easier time working in your kitchen. We are dedicated to providing 5-star service for every commercial client in the Longview region.
Converting a cooler into a freezer is not as simple as just turning down the thermostat. A walk-in freezer requires much thicker insulation to maintain temperatures below zero degrees Fahrenheit today. Most coolers have four-inch panels, while freezers often require five or six inches of insulation for efficiency. The refrigeration system in a freezer is also much more powerful and uses different refrigerants for you. You would need to replace the entire condensing unit and the evaporator coil for the conversion. Additionally, a freezer requires a heated floor and specialized pressure relief vents to function safely. We can evaluate your current box to see if a conversion is even possible.
The cost of converting an existing cooler often exceeds the price of installing a new freezer. You must consider the structural changes and the complete equipment overhaul required for the project today. Royce Richardson provides honest advice on the most cost-effective way to add freezer space to your business. We never recommend a conversion if it will result in an inefficient or unreliable system for you. Our team can provide a free estimate for a new walk-in freezer that meets your needs. We are experts at designing and installing high-performance cold storage solutions for any commercial application today. You can rely on our technical expertise to guide you through the decision process easily.
If you need both cooler and freezer space, a combination unit is often the best. These units have a shared wall and allow you to manage both environments in one box. This saves space and can be more energy-efficient than having two separate walk-in units today. We can help you design a custom combination unit that fits perfectly in your facility for you. Our technicians are skilled in the installation and maintenance of these complex multi-zone refrigeration systems. We serve the Longview area with professional advice and expert construction services for all storage. Trust R.C.’s AC Reliable Climate for all your commercial cooler and freezer needs and projects.
A loud screeching noise often indicates a failing bearing in one of the fan motors. Both the evaporator inside and the condenser outside have fans that must spin constantly today. If the bearings dry out or wear out, they will create a high-pitched noise. You should have the motor replaced before it seizes up and stops the cooling process for you. Our technicians carry common fan motors on our service trucks for quick and reliable repairs today. We can identify which motor is failing and restore quiet operation to your commercial facility. Royce Richardson ensures that every repair is handled with technical precision and professional care.
A grinding or clanking noise can be a sign of a serious mechanical issue in the compressor. This often means that internal parts are wearing out or have become loose inside the housing. If you hear this noise, turn off the system immediately to prevent a total motor burnout. A failing compressor is a major repair that requires the expertise of a licensed refrigeration technician today. We use specialized diagnostic tools to check the health of your compressor and its oil. Our team provides clear and upfront pricing for all major commercial refrigeration repairs in Longview. We are dedicated to providing a 5-star service experience and protecting your business investment.
Vibration noises can also be caused by loose mounting brackets or copper lines touching. As the system runs, these vibrations can turn into loud rattles that are heard throughout. We can tighten all the hardware and secure the lines to eliminate the noise for you. Our maintenance service includes a check of all mechanical fasteners to prevent these types of issues today. Unusual noises are your equipment’s way of telling you that it needs professional attention soon. Do not wait for a complete breakdown before calling us for a thorough inspection of your cooler. We are here to keep your business running quietly and your equipment operating perfectly for everyone.
