"Our annual HVAC inspection went flawlessly. The technician was thorough, friendly, and gave helpful maintenance tips. System is running better than it has in years."
"AC Dave is a skilled and trustworthy HVAC company that does quality work at a competitive price. I had an aging four ton system that was on its last leg. My funds were tight at the time, so they suggested installing more efficient ducting to extend the system’s life. That was three years ago, which allowed me to save for the inevitable expense of replacement. And when that time came, I was given a comprehensive estimate and the installation went smoothly. They also did a follow up to tweak the system for maximum reliability. AC Dave is a small company, so you may not get next-day service, but they will work with you and stand by their work. In today’s less and less neighborly world, that is a real asset."
"This review is about Air Duct Professionals and I want you to know that I finally found a company that was honest and professional. Because when I was at the end of my wits trying to figure out who was telling me the truth, I called Ed Mack the owner and he was reassuring that my home was not that old to be having all these problems. He referred me to a website for the Air Duct Cleaners Association and read about what air duct cleaning really does. So I had Air Duct Professionals come out to the inspection and they have an actual HVAC guy on their staff. Immediately looking at how new and well maintained our air system was in the attic, he told us those other companies were trying to scam us. Air Duct Professionals did a great job cleaning out all of our air ducts and dryer vent and cleaning up after themselves. I whole-heartedly recommend this company for their professional work and honesty."
"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."
"Had a new HVAC unit installed at my rental home. Was walked through the bid process and the work was done very quickly. Appreciate the customer service I received. Everyone was professional and answered my quetions."
"Great job, Workers are great and they know HVAC. They are a great team and very nice people. Owner is very sincere & reliable. He will work with you on the best equipment...... you get what you pay for.!!!!!!!!"
"My HVAC unit stopped producing heat so I called the folks at around the clock. They offered to come out the same day and after taking a look up on our roof determined it was a faulty control board. We talked a little about the lifespan of the unit and that while it was probably going to need to be replaced in the next 5 years or so, it made more sense to simply replace the board today. So he scheduled an appointment for the following day to come back with the replacement board. 1 day later and 15 minutes of work and I have heat again."
"Haroon was amazing, showed up in less than an hour on a Saturday, immediately found the issue in my HVAC system and explained it, had the part needed and gave me some pointers for the future. He was quick, professional, and very reasonably priced. Will definitely hire him again if the need arises."
"I needed my HVAC system urgently repaired, the technician arrived promptly to resolved the issue. They were professional and knowledgeable and gave me honest recommendations & also was very helpful. Highly recommend! Thank you!"

Heating and Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts
There are a few things you can do to make your AC repair technician’s job easier and your home more comfortable while you wait for AC repair:
Cut back trees, shrubs, and weeds around the outdoor compressor
Clear a pathway inside and outside to your AC components
Set up a ladder for attic access if necessary
Pull your window AC out of the window and place in an easily accessible spot
Supplement with fans and open windows to help keep your house comfortable
Yes, AC coil cleaning is definitely worth it. Cleaning your AC coils ensures your AC unit will function efficiently for the long term. Dirty and grimy AC coils make your unit work harder to cool your home, resulting in higher electric bills. Additionally, having your coils professionally cleaned regularly will reduce the possibility of extensive maintenance and repair costs.
For the most part, you should leave your AC fan in “auto” mode so that it only runs during a heating or cooling cycle. Keeping it in this position uses less energy, which equals lower utility bills. However, there are some situations where it’s better to leave your AC fan on, including if you have allergies or there are lots of people in your home.
An AC inspection costs anywhere from $75 to $200, while a full HVAC system inspection that includes your furnace ranges from $200 to $450. While there's a cost to a home AC inspection, it can save you hundreds or thousands in the long run by catching problems, avoiding breaks, and saving you money on your utility bills.
While "dry" mode on your AC can help reduce humidity levels to some extent, it may not be as effective as a dedicated dehumidifier, especially in areas with extremely high humidity or larger spaces. Dehumidifiers are specifically designed to remove moisture from the air more efficiently, making them a better choice for tackling persistent humidity issues.
