"I had three companies come to make bids on adding a whole house air filter to my Heating and AC system... Bob Jenson was the only one that actually listened to me, the only one that looked at my whole set-up in the whole house and attic, and therefore the only one that found problems that needed to be fixed and that when fixed would improve the air quality in my home. As a result I do not need the whole house air filter system and I saved A LOT of money. I immediately switched ALL my heating and AC work to Bob Jenson even though I have been with another well-known local company for over 20 years (they did not listen well either, did not see the problems that needed fixing, most of which had been caused by them in the first place, and offered a multi-thousand-dollar bid for a whole house system.) The work included replacing registers in three rooms, encasing a big pipe in my furnace that was shedding fiberglass from insulation right into my air system, and other small issues that are too many to mention here. One week later, in a completely unrelated manner, my AC stopped working. Bob Jenson was able to send someone the next day even though they were booked, and that person first thought I needed a new pump but then discovered a clogged tube that he used tanked oxygen to clear, and he solved my problem. Again, excellent diagnostics and lots of patience. All the Bob Jenson staff and workers whom I have interacted with and who did the work at my house were exceedingly professional, punctual, neat, thoughtful, and smart."

"We hired Airmercia Air Conditioning & Heating to evaluate our heating system and propose repair solution. Ryan was very professional and punctual. He did not make any force sales. He just offered various repair and replacement solutions and explained pros and cons for each one. We decided to replace our furnace and duct system. Ryan did an excellent Job!! I highly recommend him for your HVAC project."

"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."

"Noticed one of my bedrooms wasn’t getting the same air pressure as the others. I called the guys at sky clean air and was scheduled for the following day for a free quote. Nadav and Erick were on time and quickly got to work, because the age of the house the duct connected to the spare room had become brittle and damaged. I was given a quote for the single duct and replacing the attic I was never pushed into making a decision. Ended up going with the single duct and work was done same day with before and after pictures. My experience with Sky Clean Air is the type of business you want to deal with never felt like I was being played. Definitely recommend"

"After returning home from 2 weeks away to find my A/C unit not working, I had another contractor come out for a service call. They just listened to the unit and said I needed a new air conditioner. They gave me a quote for $3350. I decided to get another opinion and called All Day upon a recommendation. Josh came out the same day, listened to the unit and removed to panel to find the capacitor was bad. Replaced it for $120 and my A/C is up and running great. I recommend All Day Heating and Air and would gladly call them again."

"We had our whole house airc onditioner replaced by Airtime and we were very pleased with a job well done. Pedro and his assistants arrived on time and completed the work in good time. They changed the vents installed some new duct and installed a Nest thermostat. I am very pleased with the excellent professional service at a reasonable cost."

Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

The average cost to replace or install a new HVAC system is around $7,500. However, the price can range from $5,000 to $12,500, depending on factors like the size of your home, the type and brand of the unit, and your specific heating and cooling needs. If you only need to replace certain components, the cost will be lower; for example, a new AC unit can cost between $2,200 and $5,500, while a new furnace costs $3,200 to $6,000. If additional work like new ductwork is required, the total cost could be as high as $22,000. It's best to contact a local HVAC company for an accurate quote.

There are plenty of different not-so-great sounds to hear from your air conditioning unit, like squealing, grinding, water running, excessive gurgling, banging, and clanking. Each of these sounds can indicate a different malfunction with your unit, so it’s important to have a professional assess the problem before it gets worse.

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

Swamp coolers cost approximately 50 percent less to install than central air conditioners and cost less to run. Operation costs depend on the size of the unit and home, your climate, utility rates in your area, and the system’s efficiency. Swamp coolers use 15 to 35 percent less power than air conditioners.

The size window AC you need depends on the BTU and the size of the room you’re cooling. For a room with 8-foot ceilings, look for about 20 BTU per square foot of the room. For example, a 12-by-12-foot room should have an air conditioner with 2,880 BTU. You can buy something slightly more powerful, but don’t overshoot the BTU for a small room, or you’ll waste energy and have higher bills.
