"OUTSTANDING: I have preventive maintenance twice every year. Once to check all A/C equipment and once to check all Heating equipment. This past week technician Jeremy Zavala conducted the preventive maintenance on the Heating system. I was scheduled for the window of noon-3:00PM. Jeremy drove up at noon sharp! Jensen's techs have always arrived on the front end of the promised window. Jeremy was in a clean uniform; wore shoe covers so as not to track anything into my home; introduced himself; friendly and smiling; and went directly to work. He serviced the equipment as well as the thermostat then went over a list of everything addressed. Jeremy is a perfect example and representative of the things I personally want and Jensen A/C & Heating always provides: - Outstanding customer service - Well trained, knowledgeable service technicians - Prompt - Efficient - Respectful of my home: Always leaves the work area neat and clean - Trust-worthy - Personable - If a part needs replacement no need to special order - it's in the van - Jensen's Office & Administrative personnel also demonstrate the qualities noted above. - Always fair cost and excellent value And unlike many of the better known San Diego HVAC companies, Jensen has never made a sales pitch at the completion of a preventive maintenance service call. Since having Jensen as my only preferred HVAC provider my A/C and Heating has been 100% reliable."

Hydro jet uses water at 4,000psi to clean the inside of the mainline drain which connects all the home's drains to the city's sewer system.
Using a snake we can go through the cleanouts on the side of the house.
With the cleanouts snaked, and the blockage located, we can send the hydro jet through the sewer vent and flush out the blocked drain.

"My 40-year-old central A/C died on a really hot Wednesday. On Thursday, Airmaxx came out and verified it needed replacing. They also verified my suspicion that the old unit was undersized for my house. By 3:30 Saturday afternoon I had a complete new heating and A/C system installed and working. I was really impressed with their speed and efficiency."

"Did a great job...it was a very long day from start to finish however. They did a great job of keeping everything as clean as they could since our attic access was in the master closet! Yikes! Really made a difference and our house stayed much cooler with the fan and new insulation!"

Heating and Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

You should know the main components of an air conditioner: the condenser coils, evaporator coils, drip pan, AC filter, ducts, and refrigerant. Each part plays a key role in the performance and safety of your AC system. When tracking the source of AC issues or odors, it helps to know where to look. Your outdoor unit houses your condenser coils, fan, and compressor. Your indoor unit houses your evaporator coils, drain lines, and filter, and it connects to your ductwork. 

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

You should flush your AC drain line once every three months to keep it clear of debris and buildup. Keeping your AC drain line clean prevents clogs, backups, mold growth, and extra wear on your AC unit. If you live in a humid area or have several furry pets, up your cleaning schedule to once a month.

An HVAC system typically lasts between 10 and 30 years, with an average lifespan of 15 to 25 years. The longevity of the system is influenced by factors such as the quality of the unit, usage frequency, local climate, and how well it is maintained. Regular maintenance, including cleaning, filter replacements, and professional inspections, can help maximize its lifespan. Different components within the system have varying life expectancies. For example:

  • Furnaces: 15 to 30 years

  • Boilers: 20 to 35 years

  • Air Conditioners (AC units): 12 to 20 years

  • Heat Pumps: 10 to 20 years

  • Ductless Mini-Splits: 10 to 30 years

The best way to compare HVAC quotes is getting a few detailed quotes from local companies with good reputations. Then, go over the quotes line by line. Protect yourself by insisting on in-person estimates that include equipment manufacturer names, model numbers, SEER ratings, amounts and numbers of materials, details of warranties on equipment and labor, and other specifics. 

Knowing the exact equipment and materials is the only way that you can fairly compare quotes. Quotes that are much lower than others can be a sign that the company isn’t providing the best quality service or materials.
