From tune-ups and maintenance to heater repair and air conditioning replacement, we provide services that keep the air you breathe clean and keep your home or business at the perfect temperature.
Ladue sits in one of the more demanding climate pockets in the St. Louis metro. Summers push humidity past 70 percent, forcing your air conditioner to strip moisture from the air before it can actually cool your space. When refrigerant levels drop, or evaporator coils ice over, the system runs, but your home stays sticky. We check refrigerant charge with calibrated manifold gauges, clear blocked drain lines, and inspect condenser coils for debris before anything else. If full air conditioner replacement makes more sense than a repair, we run a Manual J load calculation to make sure the new unit is sized right.
Many Ladue homes run high-efficiency gas furnaces with two-stage or variable-speed blowers. Those systems need a trained eye when something fails. We pull fault codes from the control board, check heat exchanger integrity, test ignitor microamps, and verify gas pressure before diagnosing. Furnace repair calls always include a full combustion safety check. Heat pump homes, including many near Fenton and Eureka where heat pumps are especially common, get defrost cycle testing and refrigerant verification on every heating visit. From air conditioner repair to indoor air quality upgrades, we cover your full heating and cooling system.
Why Choose Aire Serv of St. Louis for HVAC in Ladue
Our locally owned team services Ladue, Town and Country, Ballwin, Manchester, Wildwood, Ellisville, and Pacific. Every price is quoted before work starts. No surprise charges after the job. Our St. Louis HVAC pros hold NATE certification and carry EPA Section 608 refrigerant credentials for both legacy R-410A systems and newer R-454B equipment.
Indoor air quality is something Ladue residents often overlook until allergy season hits. Missouri spring pollen counts spike through April and May, and the humidity that follows can push mold growth on evaporator coils. We install whole-home humidifier and dehumidifier systems, UV germicidal lamps, and media air filtration to address these problems at the source.
Frequently Asked Questions About HVAC in Ladue, MO
St. Louis summer relative humidity routinely exceeds 70 percent. For larger Ladue homes, that means longer run times, higher energy bills, and faster compressor wear. High humidity forces your AC to act as a dehumidifier first and a cooler second. If the system is undersized or low on refrigerant, it can't keep up with both jobs. A frozen evaporator coil, short cycling, or a home that still feels muggy at 72°F are all warning signs. A whole-home dehumidifier paired with your existing equipment is often the most effective fix.
The Department of Energy requires a minimum SEER2 rating of 14.3 for new central AC systems in Missouri's South Central region. For Ladue, with a cooling season stretching from late May through September, we recommend 16 SEER2 or higher. The cost difference typically pays back through lower Ameren Missouri electric bills, and higher-efficiency units often qualify for federal tax credits under the Inflation Reduction Act.
Yes. Both the City of Ladue and St. Louis County require permits for HVAC replacements and new installations under Missouri's mechanical code. Skipping the permit can complicate a home sale or insurance claim. Our team pulls the required permits and schedules inspections so that step doesn't fall on you.

Twice per year: one tune-up in early spring before cooling season and one in early fall before heating season. Each visit covers thermostat calibration, refrigerant verification, blower motor testing, and a heat exchanger inspection. In Ladue, spring pollen can clog a standard 1-inch filter within 30 days, so check filters monthly during peak seasons even between service visits.
Ductwork from the 1960s and 1970s is often undersized for modern high-efficiency equipment, and old sheet metal tape dries out over decades, causing leaks. A new system installed on leaky or undersized ducts will never hit its rated efficiency. We test duct leakage before any replacement recommendation and include a duct assessment in our pre-installation evaluation.
