No cool air on a 90° Bloomington afternoon? We've served Bloomington since 1988, with crews staged just up I-494, so most repair calls in 55420, 55425, 55431, 55435, 55437, and 55438 are out the door same day. Firm written quote first, no upsell, family-owned since 1988.

We've served Bloomington since 1988, with crews staged just up I-494 and quick access via I-35W, Highway 77 (Cedar Ave), Highway 100, and Highway 169, so most A/C calls are a short run. We're also a City of Bloomington Certified contractor, formally approved for mechanical permits here, which means our techs already know the local code and the inspection process. Whether you're in a mid-century rambler in Oxboro or East Bloomington, a larger home in West Bloomington near Hyland, or a place close to Normandale or the Penn-American District, we know the housing stock, the duct quirks, and the way Minnesota summers push undersized systems past their limit.
We've been repairing central A/C, heat pumps, and ductless systems for Bloomington families since 1988. The approach hasn't changed: diagnose the real problem, explain the fix in plain English, write a firm quote, and only then do the work. If the repair isn't worth it, we'll tell you straight, and we'll give you a FREE second opinion if someone else has already quoted a replacement.
System runs but no cold air, usually a refrigerant leak, frozen coil, or compressor problem.
Vents barely pushing air, clogged filter, blower motor failure, or duct restriction.
A/C turns on and off every few minutes, thermostat, oversizing, or electrical control issue.
Frost on indoor coil or outdoor line, shut the system off and call before you damage the compressor.
Grinding, banging, or hissing, usually motor, bearing, fan, or refrigerant issues that worsen fast.
Summer bill jumping with no usage change? Losing efficiency, sometimes a tune-up, sometimes a real repair needed.
Water around the indoor unit or oily residue on outdoor lines, condensate drain or refrigerant leak.
Dead system, often a capacitor, contactor, thermostat wiring, or tripped breaker issue.

"A/C quit on a Saturday in July, 94 degrees outside our rambler in East Bloomington. Bob's team got a tech out that afternoon, diagnosed a bad capacitor, had the part on the truck, and we were cool again by dinner. Fair price, no BS."
"Another company told me I needed a $9,000 replacement. Called Bob Boldt for a second opinion, turned out to be a refrigerant leak on a 7-year-old unit. They fixed it for $480. Saved us thousands."
"Our A/C was short-cycling and blowing warm. Tech walked me through what he was checking, found the issue in 20 minutes, wrote a clear quote, and fixed it same-visit. No upselling, just the fix. We're regular customers now."
