"Bob Jenson sent 2 installers to put in 3 more mini splits this past Monday. Tony Guardarrama and Pouria arrived on time both Monday and Tuesday. They did an excellent job and I am very satisfied. It was not an easy installation, but they somehow managed to get it all done and no messes were left behind. I wholeheartedly recommend Bob Jenson AC & Heating."

"Michael was knowledgeable and very informative. The installers were competent, outstanding, and courteous. Aire Care’s bid was more budget friendly compared to other major local companies. The crew promised to get installation done in 2.5 days but completed the work in 2 days with an additional install. All in all, we would go with AireCare Heating and Air any day. We highly recommend AireCare Heating and Air."

"Sean was great about repairing my disconnected dryer air duct having to go into the crawl space and figure out what was going on. I'm glad he was able to get it done very quickly as well. He also had a very good attitude about doing the work."

"Michael, James, Keith were all GREAT! I received about 5 estimates for replacing an original 32 year old split level Rheem system. Oasis was neither the least expensive but certainly not the most expensive. They have only been in business a short while but I took a chance with them and they delivered! Prompt, flexible pricing, clean work, friendly. A complete system including duct work and I hardly even knew they were here working. I whole heartedly recommend these guys! (And I do not write reviews!)"

"Shaun competently and thoroughly checked the AC system in the 3-story townhouse that was vacant for more than 5 years. . It has been a week and I m satisfied with how good the AC has been functioning . Shaun also installed a Nest thermostat and solved my concern of not repainting around the device by placing a nice plate . Thank you ... I ll rehire them again"

"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!"

Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

Aside from needing HVAC repair, there are times when you may need to replace your unit. HVAC replacement costs $5,000 to $12,500. Here are some telltale signs that your HVAC unit is going bad:

  • Your unit is 10 years or older.

  • Your home is very humid.

  • The unit keeps cycling without producing cool air.

  • You need to repair the unit frequently.

To reset your air conditioner, start by turning it off at the thermostat. Then, shut off power to the AC system at the circuit breaker. Some units have a dedicated "reset" button; if yours does, press and hold it for three to five seconds. If your air conditioner doesn't have a reset button, or if you are resetting it after a power outage, leave the circuit breaker off for at least 30 minutes to allow the system to reset itself. Afterward, turn the power back on at the breaker, turn on the AC from the thermostat, and set it to "cool" to test the system.

When a compressor gets overheated in central air systems or heat pumps, it can still cool your home for a while until it eventually gives out. If the compressor is chronically overheated and no one addresses the root cause, it will create an incredibly expensive problem when your entire HVAC system breaks down and stops working altogether.

Trick question: There is no difference between an AC and a furnace blower motor. Whether you have central air and heat or just one of these, the same blower motor carries hot and cold air throughout the ductwork in your home. Certain systems may have separate blower motors for the AC and furnace, but each serves the same function.

While 72 degrees is a comfortable setting for many people, it’s likely not the most efficient temperature setting for your air conditioning unit. By pushing the temperature up to 75 or 78 degrees, you stand to save money on your energy bill. That said, these temperatures may be too warm to be comfortable for some people and are definitely too warm for most people to sleep comfortably.
