"Great job by Rick, the team at the office Gary and Joanna are consummate professionals in an industry that has earned its jaded reputation. Very pleased as Sierra Pacific wanted to just change the unit. They've lost my business and Golden Aire has earned it! Excellent work, but honest people!"

"I can't begin to speak more highly of George and the experience of hiring his company Honest and Fair Heating and Air to replace a full heating and air conditioning unit at my mother in laws house. I called and within a few short days a new system was up and running. The job was completed quickly, at the most reasonable price, and of the highest quality. I never felt oversold or under serviced in anyway. Hiring companies like Honest and Fair Heating and Air inspire me to find additional HVAC projects to have the chance to work with them again. I am sure I will be working with George again to install a zoning system at my place and whatever HVAC related I may need. If George could make copies of himself, the rest of the HVAC industry would be out of business!"

"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!"

"They installed central heating and air in our home in 2025. They were efficient, did a excellent clean up, and friendly. They checked in a week after to make sure we were satisfied with the system and if we had any questions. We are extremely satisfied with the new system. The controls are easy to work and the system is very quiet and efficient."

"We are new homeowners and the house did not have an AC unit which is a very big expense. We did talk to a few other companies and I cannot believe how expensive an AC unit is, we chose A+ heating and air, not only cause the price was the best, they explained every step of the way they showed us where things were going to be. They made this very easy for us and I am very happy we chose them, absolutely wonderful young men very respectful, very hard-working. I could not have asked for a better experience, we love our AC and I would highly Recommend A+ Heating and air. They also made it possible to be able to put some cash down and the rest to be financed with 0% interest for 24 months."

Air Conditioning FAQs, answered by experts

You might notice that your air conditioner isn’t running as effectively as it once did. Specifically, your AC unit could take longer to cool your home, or it might struggle to remove humidity from the air. Higher utility bills and hissing sounds coming out of your AC could also indicate a leak.

There are many signs of a bad AC fan motor, including if the fan blades don’t spin when the AC kicks on or if they keep spinning when the AC is off. The AC fan cools down the condenser coil, so a faulty motor can also cause the system to overheat. Unusual noises in the exterior AC unit, including grinding or rattling sounds, may also be a sign that the AC fan motor is worn out.

Running an air conditioner with mold is not safe because it can spread harmful mold spores throughout your home. Exposure to these spores can trigger various health problems, including respiratory issues, allergies, coughing, wheezing, sneezing, itchy eyes, and a sore throat. It may also aggravate asthma in household members. Continued exposure can increase the risk of more serious illnesses like sinus infections, pneumonia, and bronchitis. If you suspect mold in your air conditioner, you should stop using the system until it has been properly cleaned to avoid health risks and further contamination.

No, for two very important reasons. First, it’s illegal to release refrigerant into the air or ground since it can be toxic and cause environmental damage. Technicians typically pump old or extra refrigerant into separate tanks for special disposal. Second, without professional equipment to read refrigerant pressure and levels, plus the AC’s suggested requirements, it’s impossible to know if you’ve removed the right amount of refrigerant. Stay away from a DIY solution here and seek an expert with the right tools.

It depends on the size of the space you’re cooling down. If you’re looking for the most affordable way to cool an entire house over a long period of time, then central air will be more cost-effective. But when it comes to cooling down a couple of rooms or one floor, a window unit may be the cheaper option, with both a lower cost to install and less energy used to run.
