"Great. My daughter contracted Air Duct Professionals to do her home. James, the technician, was professional, knowledgeable and did a quality job. I contacted Air Duct to do my home and requested James. James arrived on time and did an excellent job. He also helped me with a leak with my HVAC Condenser and diagnosed and fixed the issue."

"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."

"Joel responded right away and got to our property shortly after. He clearly explained what was going on with our HVAC heater, along with pictures of the problem, and went and got parts and completed the job all in time for us to have heat into during the cold night. Great job!"

"A nice guy turned up on time to check my aging HVAC system to see there are any problems needing attention. He checked everything and gave me a clean bill of health. Other HVAC contractors have always presented me with a list of vague problems with a recommendation that I renew the whole system at $20,000 plus. It was refreshing to find someone honest for a change."

Heating and Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

No, for two very important reasons. First, it’s illegal to release refrigerant into the air or ground since it can be toxic and cause environmental damage. Technicians typically pump old or extra refrigerant into separate tanks for special disposal. Second, without professional equipment to read refrigerant pressure and levels, plus the AC’s suggested requirements, it’s impossible to know if you’ve removed the right amount of refrigerant. Stay away from a DIY solution here and seek an expert with the right tools.

On a summer day, expect your AC to run between 12 and 16 hours. However, this time frame depends on just how hot it is outside and the comfortable temperature you’re hoping to maintain indoors. Assuming the size of your AC is appropriate for the space you’re trying to cool, it shouldn’t be a problem for it to work this many hours.

One of the fastest ways to unfreeze an AC unit is to turn off the unit and, if it’s warm outside, use the fan-only mode to help blow warmer air through the unit to speed up the defrosting process. While it may be tempting to use a hair dryer to defrost the air conditioner, that high heat can damage the coils.

After defrosting, if you can safely solve the issue with a fix like changing the filter, go ahead and do so. Otherwise, call in a pro before turning your AC back on.

The cost to add Freon to an AC ranges from $100 to $350. It can increase up to $600 for large AC units requiring much more coolant. The cost also depends on how much refrigerant your unit needs. If only a small amount of Freon leaked out, your cost would be on the lower side. A complete replacement of all the required refrigerant can get expensive.

If your home has an existing forced-air heat system, you can add a central air conditioner to it. An HVAC technician can retrofit your forced-air heating system by installing an evaporator coil onto the furnace plenum, the box next to the furnace that draws in air. Once installed, the air conditioning coils use the furnace’s blower to circulate the air.
