"I purchased a new, fairly expensive thermostat. I needed a certified HVAC person to install it in order to preserve the 10-year warranty. I utilized Angi to find someone local to do that. I was soon contacted by Nick. We discussed a priced and he showed up the next day. Nick was extremely cordial. He was very easy to communicate with and he is generally just a very nice person. Nick was knowledgeable and completed the job in short order. He provided me with a receipt and then went on his way. I am very happy with his work and I think that if he does some work for you, then you will have a similar outcome."

"We pay $14/mo. and they automatically come out twice a year.  They come in January and check your heater and July and check your A/C.  Then you get a discount on any service needed.  It's great, they always are good. I think they're kind of expensive but, well they're probably no more expensive than others.  It always cost a lot when you have to have repairs done.  They are always very responsive when we call. They're always here within the time frame that they give us.  Only one time did they call and say they would be later."

"Jed replied to my initial inquiry within a couple hours and he came to my house later that very day to evaluate the job and give me an estimate. BTW, it was a Saturday! He returned in one week and replaced my kitchen light fixtures and installed a new ceiling light/fan fixture in my family room. He did an excellent job in a timely manner and at a fair price. I will be hiring Jed Faulkner in the future for any needs I may have for an electrician and I will be recommending him to anyone who is in need of an electrician."

"I recently hired a landscape designer to help me revamp my backyard, and I'm thrilled with the results. The designer was creative and listened to my needs, and they were able to create a beautiful and functional outdoor space that exceeded my expectations. The team was professional and efficient, and they completed the project in a timely manner. I would highly recommend this service to anyone looking to transform their outdoor space."

Heating and Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

Freon will go in the refrigerant lines near the back of your AC unit. Look for small ports with caps on a thin copper line—the Freon goes into those ports. You are best off hiring a licensed HVAC professional who can complete the job safely and correctly.

Yes, you should turn off your AC if it’s leaking. Turning off the system prevents more condensation from leaking and reduces strain on the unit if a damaged internal component or lack of refrigerant is the cause. While this may temporarily stop the leak, water can continue to drip from a thawing coil even after the system is off. As soon as you notice a leak, turn off the unit and investigate the source or call a professional for an inspection.

It depends on the size of the space you’re cooling down. If you’re looking for the most affordable way to cool an entire house over a long period of time, then central air will be more cost-effective. But when it comes to cooling down a couple of rooms or one floor, a window unit may be the cheaper option, with both a lower cost to install and less energy used to run.

The right type of HVAC system will depend on several factors, including your climate, budget, preferences, and existing HVAC setup. For example, if you live in an area that experiences extreme weather, then a split system would likely be the best option. Or, if budget is a concern, consider installing a ductless system in just one room.

While most air conditioners can last between 10 and 20 years, they will only last this long (or longer) if properly taken care of. Routine maintenance and inspections help keep your AC unit running in tip-top shape but understanding what factors will decrease its lifespan will also help keep your unit running cool.

Some things that shorten your AC’s lifespan include:

  • Extreme outdoor conditions, like high humidity or extensive salt spray 

  • Improper installation

  • Extended run times, either by the unit being too small or the thermostat setting too low

  • Not performing required maintenance
