"We had ATC take a look at our HVAC system that was not running well. Another company came out and told us the entire installation was wrong and everything had to be replaced, including all ducting. The price was astronomical. They also said that some structural work needed to be done, such as cutting through drywall and the house, which was not included. When Kevin from ATC came out to look, he said the ducting and the heater were just fine. The condenser and coil were old and probably should be replaced but it wasn’t an emergency. He suggested installing a dual controller and an additional return to improve the airflow issue we were having. He also gave us a quote for three options of new condenser/coils, along with financing options. The price was a fraction of the other company and the financing allowed us to do everything now rather than later. John and Kevin came out to do the installation. THEY WERE PHENOMENAL! They arrived on time, were so pleasant to speak with, were exceptionally patient with all our questions, were extremely knowledgeable about HVAC and split systems, were neat and clean, and did an extremely professional job of installation. That included all the drywall work that was necessary! And the improvement we received was unbelievable! Every room in the house was immediately receiving excellent airflow! We really thought we were in trouble, but these guys made sure we got all the cooling/heating we needed throughout the house with as little cost to us as possible. I would highly recommend the company and would especially recommend John and Kevin. They also fixed a split unit that wasn’t working. They can do it all!! Love these guys!"

Cal Climate is family owned and operated, bringing a personal touch to everything we do. In 1970, founder Andrew "Andy" Sauer started the company with a simple vision - provide friendly, reliable service and products. Andy knew that Cal Climate would succeed by building a reputation based on going the extra distance. His sons, Tom and Bob, continue to carry on that awesome tradition today. We take pride in the fact that 90% of our new business comes from referral's. Please if you have any further questions or you would like to schedule a service call or a free installation appointment please contact us

"This review is long overdue, but I need to praise Calclimate for their excellent service! Tom and Chris were professional, reliable, and provided quality work. Tom replaced my father’s AC unit last summer on a short notice and provided much needed relief for my father, who was physically impaired at the time. I highly recommend Calclimate and will definitely use them again!"

"Air Tech was great. I would HIGHLY recommend. I initially had 2 other companies besides Air Tech come out for a replacement estimate. Price wise Air Tech was right in the middle but were doing a lot more than the other 2 quotes I got. For example they were changing the copper refrigeration lines, which the other 2 weren’t going to do. When I called the other 2 companies to add the lines in there was going to be an additional $1500-$2000 charge. I’m very pleased with this the work that was done by Air Tech"

Install Central Vacuum questions, answered by experts

One advantage of a central vacuum system is that it can last for a very long time, especially when it’s well-maintained. You can expect a high-quality system to last at least 20 years. At this time, you may need to replace the main power unit, but the central vac system can continue functioning with new parts.

Before deciding whether or not to install a central vacuum system, consider the pros and cons to determine if it’s right for you.

Pros

  • Increased suction power

  • Improved air quality

  • Reduced noise pollution

  • Longer lifespan than traditional self-contained vacuum units

Cons

  • Higher upfront installation costs

  • Expensive repairs

  • Requires significant storage space

Whether talking about a whole-house central vacuum or a portable vacuum cleaner, the expected cost of major repair work should always be balanced against its replacement cost. However, excluding high-cost motor replacements or major electrical trouble, repairs on a central vacuum system are typically far less than the cost of purchasing and installing a new one.

They’ll use more electricity than the average upright vacuum, but not remarkably more. Most power units plug into a standard 120-volt outlet and don’t have significant power demands. You shouldn’t notice an increase in electricity bills. If you have any specific questions about energy costs, ask your installer as you examine purchase decisions. Larger power units will need more electricity for their suction levels.

Technically, yes, you could install a central vacuum system on your own, but it is a very difficult DIY. There is a significant amount of planning, cutting into walls, and electrical wiring work that goes into it, which should only be performed by a professional. Because of the difficulty and expense associated with a central vacuum system, it’s worth it to hire a professional company familiar with the installation's complexities.
