"Great company to work with. Prompt service, they answered all my questions, I would definitely recommend this company for all hvac purchases, repairs or installation needs."
"Ken, the owner, came out and did the estimate personally. We decided we needed to get 3 estimates and asked the others to quote the same equipment Ken did. We had an old Carrier system which had given us no end of trouble installed by one of the big HVAC companies in town which I will never use again. We opted for a top of the line Trane system this time. Ken worked with us to adjust his bids to quote the same equipment that the others were quoting. We had Ken come out to do some duct sealing and cold air return enlargement a few years back, so we went to him first. Ken was easy to work with, on time and provided the lowest bid, so we went ahead. The crew showed up on time and installed the system in one day despite allowing for two. They did a thorough job, cleaned up after themselves and were very courteous and considerate. When we had the independent duct seal test done, the tester indicated that he was always happy to inspect their work, since it was consistently well done. When the county inspector came to sign off the permit, he seemed to feel the same way. This is a family company who consistently do good honest work and are easy to work with. We signed up for Golden Aire's maintenance program and they extended the labor warranty to 10 years. One of the other bids we got was from a larger company that sends us postcards pretty regularly even though we have not used them in the past. Their bids were 25-35% higher for the same equipment and they were a real pain to deal with, just getting the bids."
"Advanced Airs team did an excellent job for us! Everything was completed just as explained to us in our quote. You are now our go to HVAC team. Thanks!"
"I decided to go with Ecology Air Innovations after my 33 old HVAC system crapped out on me. They installed a brand new Trane two stage heat pump, variable speed air handler, and all new ducts. I had been looking into Trane equipment because, while a little more expensive, I wanted to go with something reliable and Trane is one of the best. I received multiple quotes on that type of equipment and Ecology Air Innovations beat everyone else's price by a mile. Mark, the owner of the company, initially responded to my request and responded back very quickly. He came out and gave me the estimate the next day. He was very professional and helped me answer any questions I had. Three of his employees came out to do the work the next week and finished the total install in two days. They were all very professional and polite. One final thing, I received a SMUD rebate with the new install that was only good through the end of the month, and I was doing this very last minute...Mark jumped through hoops for me to make sure all of the paperwork got submitted in time so that I received the rebate. I couldn't be happier and I highly recommend them!"
"Go Pro handled my air conditioning installation flawlessly. Their HVAC technicians were professional, efficient, and explained every step. My home is now perfectly cool, and I highly recommend them for any heating and cooling needs.""
"I replaced one HVAC unit through Lee s Air last spring. From the initial quote to project completion everyone I interacted with was professional and knowledgeable. They answered my questions and provided updates along the way, arrived each day on time, and cleaned up the mess as they worked. I not only replaced a unit, but had to have two vents replaced, all ducting replaced, and my return vent doubled in size. I was pleased with how quickly them completed the task and that everyone I spoke with, in person and over the phone, knew the details of the job throughout the process. I m now finishing a winter inspection with the company and cannot say enough about how great this company is to work with. I highly recommend Lee s Air to anyone looking for quality and professionalism in a business choice."
"I was extremely pleased. They booked me promptly. The service person called because he was going to be 10 minutes late. Devin was personable, knowledgeable and thorough. I can't say enough nice things. He took before and after pictures. The vent was completely blocked. Afterwards it looked like new. They use the same equipment as used on HVAC ducts. Very clean process. The price was just slightly higher than a couple of others, but considering the equipment used, the prompt service and the cleanliness, the few bucks didn't matter. The owner followed up to make sure I was pleased. Will use again."
"They did an excellent job at a reasonable price. They also measured all the ceiling register openings so we could buy new ones, which they installed. Our new Furnace and HVAC work great. We couldn’t be happier!"
Heating and Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts
The simplest indicator is how long it’s been since your last tune-up. You should schedule an annual AC tune-up each spring. Beyond that, there are multiple signs that your AC needs a quick check by a professional. These issues include higher-than-average energy bills, decreased air flow from vents, higher indoor temperatures, and an air conditioning unit that stays on all the time or frequently turns on and off.
The standard rule for return duct sizing is that the return vent should be the same size or larger than the supply vent. This will ensure balanced airflow in your home and reduce strain on your HVAC system.
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.
When your HVAC system is loud, a few different causes are possible. If you have loose connections or bolts in the hardware, they can rattle as the system runs and vibrates. If you have an extremely dirty furnace filter, it could cause the system to generate noise. More commonly, an excessively loud HVAC system indicates a malfunction in the system. You may have a blower motor that is close to failing or a compressor that is breaking down. These issues require an immediate inspection.
If you don't clean your AC evaporator coils, dirt and debris will build up, which impairs the system's ability to transfer heat. This forces the unit to work harder, leading to inefficient performance, higher energy bills, and frequent breakdowns. Over time, neglected coils can corrode, which may cause refrigerant leaks, or develop mold, ice buildup, and a clogged condensate drain, resulting in poor air quality and an uncomfortable home.
