"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."

"Chris came by for a normal AC tuneup and as he was finishing up, we told him about some issues with our dishwasher and master bathroom sink and asked if he knew a plumber. He took care of both our problems right then and there! I’m not sure there’s anything he can’t fix. Chris is our go to guy for EVERYTHING ac/furnace/plumbing and he should be yours too!"
After: brand new furnace with industrial grade filtration system. Re-wrapped ductwork with fiberglass free wrapping and acoustic soundproof closet/return cavity.
After: 2 Stage Variable Speed Furnace installed perfectly!

"Oh My Gosh! What an amazing company to work with! I can’t stress enough what a pleasure it was having them in my home! John and Lauren worked smoothly and respectful throughout the day explaining everything to me. This is the first time I’ve had air conditioning. If I could give these gentlemen a 10 Star ⭐️ rating I would, period! You will not go wrong using their services from the price quote to a professional, thorough completed job! Thought it would take 2 days but no only one! Thank you John and Lauren ??"

Small jobs welcome

"Prior to me selecting Aaceâ s heating air conditioning &swamp cooler, I interview (3) other well know AC/heating company and as most knows the â deceptionâ is real! After the initial consultations with one of the companies ( (name I wonâ t disclose)I was almost in tears about how many of their technicians were out of work and that I would help put food on their table...... I reluctantly agreed and signed the contract. After further thoughts I said to myself â he got me and immediately cancelled!! Aaceâ s heating AC & Swamp cooler they were sooo amazing and I was overjoyed with happiness! Integrity, respect, excellence, and team work they exhibited wellð ð ! I'm very picky and hard too please. I had NO option but to give frank and his team the well deserved compliments they rightfully earned!!!! Without a doubt I would recommend them to my family and friends. I forgot to mention they were very clean and took all the trash away even some of mines ð ð !!!! This review is documented from a real customer and NO one asked/ suggested I write anything. Happy customer ð ð ð !!!!"

Air Conditioning FAQs, answered by experts

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.

There are many recognizable symptoms of AC compressor failure. They include loud banging noises, hot air being continually circulated in your home despite running the AC at full blast, uneven airflow and cooling, and electrical issues like constant surges due to the compressor working overtime. While some of these symptoms, like uneven cooling, can have other root causes, they are common indicators of compressor problems.

If there’s a freon leak in your home’s AC unit, it will cause the system to work overtime to cool the house. That issue will result in higher energy bills and it will take much longer for cool air to disperse throughout the home. If your system has a freon leak during the summer, it can make hot days miserable. That’s why it’s important to hire an HVAC professional to resolve a freon leak as quickly as possible.

No, you should not run an air conditioner with a Freon leak. If you think your AC unit is leaking refrigerant, shut it off immediately. When you keep using a leaky air conditioner, it could damage the unit and release more refrigerant. After turning off the AC, have an HVAC pro come take a look at the unit.

High humidity, bad insulation, warmth from sunlight, and poor circulation are all reasons your home’s hotter inside than out. While this is what you want in the colder months, summer can become unbearable if this is a constant. Try to find the cause, but you need to remember that issues like this require a permanent fix (unless you want to bear down during the summer months).
