"A moment ago This company is great. Roy Villa the service technician was very knowledgeable. No threat of up selling. Just explained what was wrong with the heating system and fixed it. This is for a rental house. He told me about the warranty plan they have for heating and AC. It was extremely reasonable. Now I will just have the AC and heater checked before each season."

"They were actually a second opinion for my non-working air conditioner but I went with them because they were very thorough and cheaper then the first company that looked at it. They replaced the same part as the first company quoted but were about $400 cheaper. They also managed to get the part in 2 business days where the other company said over a week. I didn't sacrifice cost for service though, they did a great job and now my AC works better than ever. I would definitely use them again. Another added bonus was that the repairman was a Air Force reservist and I am happy to support our troops and happy to support a company that also supports our troops.

"Technician Angel came on time. He first cleaned our HVAC unit, checked the wirings & parts & performed tests to ensure the unit is running according to standards. He inspected the Air ducts, vents even the attic. He explained everything and showed us the pictures that he took & the results on HVAC heating and cooling tests that were done. Overall a very good job done by Technician Angel I told him to come back after 6 months. Already recommended Airtime Heating & Cooling to my neighbor. 5 STARS"

"I was really impressed with the service provided by Nadav and he is team. I have a thirty year old home that still had the original HVAC systems. One located in the attic and the other underneath the house. Neither of these installations was simple. The Sky Clean Air team quoted me two days to remove and install new systems. The install crew was really professional, courteous and hard working. The underneath the house install was especially difficult with a tight crawl space in a less than hospital environment. These guys were not a show up at 10 leave at 3 pm crew.......they worked long hours both days to ensure they met the promised schedule.They kept me informed any issues throughout the installation process so there were no surprises. At the end of two days we had two beautifully installed systems that now cool our 4000 sq ft house in a matter of an hour instead of the 4 or 5 the old system required. I feel that the pricing they gave me was very fair and at the end of the job I felt like I got more value than what I paid. I would certainly use them again in the future."

"Will came on time and came in and told me had did several of the homes in my area, so he wouldn't need to do a load-test for our home. I felt a little nervous about not doing a load test because I know too small or too big of a a/c unit both have its problem, but I took it on good faith that he knew what he was doing. He asked me what I wanted, I told him just basic a/c unit., as I wouldn't be using it much (just for very hot days). He provided me with 2 options - a complete new HVAC system ($9,545.31) or just an A/C Unit & Compressor ($7,652.31). He also explained that Carini was extremely busy and that they were 1 month out on scheduling any installations."

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.

"Alex Gold of AirMaxx was personable, knowledgable, and efficient, he came on Sunday of a holiday weekend, and he quickly restored our HVAC. He explained every step, showed the cost of each step, and delivered at the quoted cost. I recommend him and his company for any HVAC issues."

Heating and Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

While it's generally safe to stay in a home with a coolant leak if your home is properly ventilated, it's important to have a professional come out to assess the situation right away. You should evacuate your home if you notice any powerful fumes. Additionally, you should leave your home if you are experiencing headaches or dizziness.

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.

Split systems are the most common type of HVAC system. Split systems have two main units: an indoor one and an outdoor one. These units work together to pull in air, heat or cool it, and distribute it throughout your home. Other popular types of HVAC systems include hybrid systems and packaged heating and air systems.

For washable or electrostatic air conditioner filters, you can soak and rinse them with water. If you rinse the filter with water, make sure to use a faucet, shower head, or garden hose with a gentle water pressure setting, as strong water pressure could damage the filter.

But for disposable filters, water could ruin the filter, even allowing mold to grow in the filter. Instead, these filters should be replaced.

If your HVAC system's capacity doesn't match the required CFM (Cubic Feet per Minute), imbalances can occur. An undersized system struggles to maintain desired temperatures, leading to discomfort. An oversized system might short-cycle, wasting energy and causing temperature fluctuations. Properly matching capacity to CFM ensures efficient and consistent heating, cooling, and home ventilation system performance.
