Larsen HVAC & Plumbing Prepares Homeowners for Summer With AC Repair and Installation Services

WEST JORDAN, UT - July 01, 2026 -

Larsen HVAC & Plumbing, a licensed residential HVAC contractor headquartered at 6752 South Airport Road in West Jordan, Utah, has announced that its air conditioning repair and installation services are now fully operational ahead of the summer cooling season, as forecasters project above-average temperatures across the Wasatch Front in the coming months.

The announcement comes as Utah homeowners across communities including West Jordan, South Jordan, Sandy, and Taylorsville begin preparing their households for a summer that regional weather data suggests will bring sustained periods of elevated heat. The company reports that scheduling activity for AC-related services has accelerated noticeably in recent weeks, with homeowners seeking both pre-season inspections and full system replacements before peak demand arrives. Larsen HVAC & Plumbing's service footprint covers West Jordan and extends across Salt Lake County to include West Valley City, Murray, Midvale, Draper, and surrounding communities, with the company's Airport Road headquarters positioning it close to the residential neighborhoods it serves most frequently.

"What we see every year is that the first real heat wave catches a lot of households off guard," said Shawn Larsen, owner of Larsen HVAC & Plumbing. "By the time temperatures are consistently in the 90s, our schedule fills up quickly. Homeowners who reach out before that point are in a much better position to get timely service."

The company offers a full range of residential air conditioning services, including new system installations, same-day repair for malfunctioning units, annual maintenance inspections, and system replacements for equipment that has reached the end of its serviceable life. As a Rheem Pro Certified Partner, Larsen HVAC & Plumbing's technicians are evaluated against manufacturer-defined installation standards, and the company is certified to work on all major makes and models. Repair services cover components including compressors, fans, motors, electrical controls, refrigerant lines, and thermostats across all models, with technicians holding EPA 608 Universal certification as required by federal regulation for refrigerant handling.

Annual maintenance inspections have taken on added significance for Utah homeowners this season, as HVAC manufacturers increasingly include maintenance requirements within warranty terms. Damage resulting from improper or skipped maintenance is typically excluded from manufacturer coverage, meaning that households relying on warranty protection may face unexpected out-of-pocket costs if routine inspections have been deferred. Larsen HVAC & Plumbing's technicians conduct pre-season check-ups that include refrigerant level verification, blower component adjustments, electrical connection inspections, and condensate drain evaluations, all performed in accordance with the 2021 Utah State Mechanical Code governing HVAC work across the state.

"A system that has not been serviced in a year or two often has minor issues that compound over time," Shawn Larsen noted. "Refrigerant levels drift, electrical contacts corrode, and airflow gets restricted. None of those things are expensive to address early, but each one quietly reduces efficiency and puts additional strain on the compressor."

The company also reported growing interest among Salt Lake County homeowners in high-efficiency AC installations, particularly in established residential communities such as the Jordan Landing area, Copper Hills, and neighborhoods along the Bangerter Highway corridor in West Jordan. Shawn Larsen attributed this trend in part to rising utility costs and increased awareness of rebate programs offered through Rocky Mountain Power's Wattsmart Homes initiative and Enbridge Gas Utah's ThermWise program, both of which provide financial incentives for qualifying equipment upgrades that Larsen HVAC & Plumbing technicians can help customers identify and pursue.

For homeowners evaluating whether to repair or replace an aging system, the company offers free in-home estimates that include a clear assessment of current equipment condition, projected repair costs, and comparative pricing on replacement options. Larsen HVAC & Plumbing emphasizes that installation decisions are left entirely to the customer, with technicians providing factual assessments rather than sales-oriented guidance. Permit-required installations are completed in accordance with the inspection process administered by the West Jordan Building and Safety Division, providing homeowners with an independent verification that work meets city and state code requirements.

The company's approach to AC installation reflects its broader service philosophy, which centers on transparency and technical accuracy. A certified installer, rather than a sales representative, conducts all in-home evaluations, ensuring that equipment recommendations are grounded in direct knowledge of a home's specific application and requirements under Utah Division of Professional Licensing standards. All new system installations include warranty registration handling, with customers receiving a ten-year parts warranty and a lifetime heat exchanger warranty on qualifying full-system replacements, along with a one-year labor warranty on new installations.

Airflow efficiency is another area Larsen HVAC & Plumbing addresses as part of its summer service push. Restricted or poorly balanced airflow is among the more common contributors to uneven cooling in residential homes, particularly in multi-story properties or homes with older duct configurations. The company's technicians assess duct integrity and blower performance as part of broader system evaluations, identifying airflow limitations that may be reducing comfort even in systems that are otherwise functioning normally.

The connection between indoor air quality and a well-maintained cooling system is also a factor the company highlights in its pre-season outreach. Air conditioning systems play a direct role in managing indoor humidity levels, and units that are not operating at proper capacity can allow moisture buildup that affects comfort and air quality throughout a home. For residents across Salt Lake County, where the Salt Lake County Health Department Air Quality Bureau monitors seasonal air quality conditions, maintaining a properly functioning cooling system contributes directly to indoor comfort and air management during periods of elevated outdoor pollution. Larsen HVAC & Plumbing offers indoor air quality assessments alongside its AC services, helping homeowners understand how their cooling equipment interacts with the broader environment inside their residence.

Larsen HVAC & Plumbing was founded in West Jordan in February 2017 by Shawn Larsen, who holds an EPA 608 Universal certification and an Associate's Degree in Applied Sciences from Salt Lake Community College. The company operates under a Utah Division of Professional Licensing specialty contractor license and maintains service coverage across West Jordan and the broader Salt Lake County region.

Service hours run from 8:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., with 24/7 emergency service available outside standard hours. The company is currently accepting appointments for AC inspections, repairs, and new installations for the summer season.
