"After reading reviews on Angie's List and finding out that they do installations for Costco, we chose Around the Clock (even though they were the most expensive of the 3 quotes we received) because we wanted to make sure we did not skimp on such a major project - installation of a new HVAC system. While the system is working great and our house is much cooler than with our swamp cooler and/or window AC units, we were disappointed with a few aspects of the job. As far as when the crew was on the job... they were on time, clean, and the job got completed in the time that they said it would - 2 days. My concerns came up in the days/weeks after the job was completed when a contractor came to the house to look at some additional work being done. Part of the quote from our job was that they would "remove" two existing floor gas heaters in our home. When the contractor and I were looking at repairing the hardwood floors where the heaters have been removed, we found that one of the heaters had actually just been left under the house in the crawlspace. A few minutes later, I asked my contractor to check out the attic because I knew that the workers had smashed an asbestos vent pipe from one of the old heaters so they could run electric wires through it from the crawlspace under the house up to the attic and eventually the package HVAC unit on the roof. I know that health issues arise with asbestos when it disturbed (like smashing it apart and leaving it exposed in the attic.) The contractor confirmed that this was the case and he was rather alarmed and surprised that a "retail" top-dollar job had been done with these methods. After talking with the owner, Alan, about my concerns, his response was basically this is the way that things are done. He said that leaving the heater under the house is called "dropping" the unit and that the unit was too big to remove out of the crawl space. I think that with some effort and a Sawzall it could have been removed, but either way, I wish that they would have been clearer that they were leaving smashed up appliances under our house. I told him about the asbestos pipe and he told me, again, often times that is "how it's done" because it's the easiest way to get the wires through the house. When I told him I had safety concerns about the asbestos being exposed, he said that the workers should have put some kind of coating on the exposed areas as a protection against any of the asbestos fibers getting airborne. I sent him photos confirming that there was no coating applied. During this call, he mentioned something about "sealing" the unit to the roof (to protect against rain penetrating where the HVAC and the roof meet) and that it had not been done yet because they thought maybe we were getting a new roof very soon. This was the first I had heard that the job was not complete and I don't know where the idea of the new roof came from other than our roof is old and going to need to be done in the next few years. Alan said he would send out someone to coat the pipe and do the roof "sealing". They came out that day or the next to do the work. After talking to the worker about the pipe (same guy who was heading the crew on the installation days), he acted like this was a waste of time and told me, "We never put this coating on these asbestos pipes when we break them." That was disconcerning and it made me feel like the owner doesn't really know what his crews are/are not doing or, more likely, that they just are doing whatever they need to do to get the job done quick, cheap and easy. Overall - the big disappointment for me and my wife... if we wanted the job to be "quick, cheap, easy, and maybe cut a few corners, we would have gone with a different HVAC company that was much cheaper, and we would expect that because "you get what you pay for", but we didn't, we went for the retail installer and feel that the job was less than retail."

FAQs for central vacuum installation projects in Arleta, CA

Common repairs for central vacuum cleaners include motor repair, electrical repair, and blocked filters. Central vacuum motor issues typically come with a burning smell and loss of suction. With these issues, you might need simple lubrication to keep it running smoothly, or for more extreme problems, you could need a motor replacement. 

Electrical problems or losing suction strength, might be reasons to swap out electrical components for new ones. However, a local central vacuum repair professional can tell you the best plan of action for your system.

The average cost for central vacuum cleaner repair is $310, though prices can range from $120 to $500. Your total cost will depend on the type of repair needed and the type of central vacuum you own.

A minor motor repair, like lubrication, only costs around $50. However, if you need to replace your motor, you’ll be looking at a much higher price tag with a total of $100 to $500. Other fixes, like electrical work, are charged by the hour, which ranges from $15 to $55 per hour.

A central vacuum system can last between 10 and 20 years if maintained properly. The frequency of use and amount of maintenance dictate its lifespan. These central systems last significantly longer than portable vacuum cleaners, which last 8 to 10 years on average. Keep your central vacuum system in good condition by checking the hose, wand, and attachments for clogs and emptying the debris bag regularly.

The average cost to hire an HVAC contractor is between $50 and $150 per hour if charging hourly. However, some HVAC contractors will charge a flat fee by the type of service they are performing—for example, an inspection can cost between $150 to $500. Keep in mind that emergency repairs—which are made after business hours or around major holidays—generally cost more than scheduled repairs.

Yes, most states require HVAC technicians to be certified, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed HVAC technician could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations. 

As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include: 

  • The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check

  • Required to have applicable state and local licenses

  • Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review

  • Paying to advertise their services

  • Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi

Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
