"Worked with Tim - was looking for new HVAC system. He was honest and provided the best price for what you got (literally thousands of dollars cheaper from other options I was finding). Was very communicative and easy to work with. He made sure to educate you on the ins-and-outs of HVAC systems, and did not try to upsell you like other companies might do. He and Efficiency Air definitely got me as a new continued client."

"We chose to go with Premier for our new home HVAC system because of Jonathanâ s professionalism and great price. We felt like Jonathan treated us like family. He was honest and upfront about the challenges he would face putting our new system in so we were never surprised or felt like we were getting ripped off. We really appreciate how the Premier team was respectful of our home , nice to our dogs and finished in the time frame agreed upon. Our system works wonderfully , we highly recommend Premier for any of your HVAC projects!!!"

"We chose Bob and Air Flow Pros after an extensive search and comparison of different companies that offered duct cleaning. From the moment he picked up the phone, Bob was confident, caring, helpful and knowledgeable. He made me feel sure he would take pride in getting the job done, and done the right way. The ducts in our home smelled badly of dog from the previous owners, so bad we couldn't stand to use the air system at all. Bob was very understanding and fit us into his schedule within a week, when other, more expensive companies were scheduled 4-6 weeks out. When Bob and Sam came they were both friendly, professional and competent, and our home air smells great now! We are so grateful we discovered Air Flow Pros. Thanks, Bob!"

"I first used Patagonia HVAC when my home AC broke. Guillermo, the owner, responded promptly and provided a quote for the repair. He worked with me to find the best new system within my budget and completed the installation within days. He was incredibly professional, and my AC has been working wonderfully ever since! I later hired him when the AC went down at my grocery store, and Guillermo had it repaired the very same day we called. I couldn’t recommend Patagonia HVAC more highly!"

"It was installed with a kink in the condensation hose and was not aware that it leaked under our hallway wood floor. This was June 2022. I paid to have a leak detection company come out and say the floor was OK. In August 2022, we ran HVAC for a couple of days during the heat wave and water came out of the HVAC unit, ruining our hallway wood floor. It is 10/29/2022 and we still have not heard from their office on how they are going to fix our floor."

Heating and Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

HVAC companies may charge an hourly rate or a flat fee. Hourly rates typically range from $100 to $250 per hour, with an average around $175. Some contractors charge a flat fee for specific services, such as an inspection, which can cost between $150 and $500. The total cost of an HVAC service is influenced by several factors, including: the urgency of the service (emergency repairs after hours or on holidays cost more), the time of year, the type, size, and brand of your HVAC system, the specific repair needed, and whether you have a service contract.

Air conditioners can stop working in the middle of the night for many reasons. Your local power grid might shut down late at night. Power surges can also trip your breakers if too much power is being used in the area at the time. If your AC is connected to a digital thermostat, it gets naturally cooler at night, so the outdoor temperature might dip below the automated setting to turn the cooling system off.

No. Evaporator coils are designed to work with specific refrigerant types, and they are rated by what kinds of refrigerant they use. It’s indicated with an “R” code. It’s important to match your evaporator coil and refrigerant or your system will not work properly. An AC technician can tell you what type of refrigerant your system needs and what evaporator coils will work with it.

When deciding whether to repair or replace your air conditioner, several factors should be considered. It is generally worth repairing the unit if it's less than 10 years old, the warranty is still active, and you're dealing with a one-off issue. Most central AC units last about 15 years, while window units last 8 to 10 years. If your unit is approaching or has surpassed the 10-year mark and requires frequent or costly repairs (e.g., over $5,000), replacement is often the more sensible long-term investment. For older, inefficient, or out-of-warranty units experiencing multiple problems, replacing it is typically the better choice.

If your whole house is cold that’s one thing, but what if you only have a few rooms that are cold? First, you need to determine why this may be happening. A good place to start is to investigate the potential causes listed in this article—heat transfer, airflow, thermostat problems, humidity, and insulation. Once you’ve narrowed down the issue, you’d apply the same principles to the cold rooms as you would to the entire home.
