"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."

"Michael, James, Keith were all GREAT! I received about 5 estimates for replacing an original 32 year old split level Rheem system. Oasis was neither the least expensive but certainly not the most expensive. They have only been in business a short while but I took a chance with them and they delivered! Prompt, flexible pricing, clean work, friendly. A complete system including duct work and I hardly even knew they were here working. I whole heartedly recommend these guys! (And I do not write reviews!)"

"We recently had Same Day Heating and Air Conditioning come to our house to inspect our furnaces before turning the furnaces on during the cooler winter months and they discovered that both units had gas leaks. The system is 20 years old so it wasnâ t a complete surprise although we had hoped to put off replacing them for about 1-2 years. The technician/ inspector was knowledgeable, thorough and professional in showing us pictures of the worn, damaged furnaces (2). He explained the options for repairs and replacement as well as pricing considerations. In the end we decided to have them install 2 new furnaces and 2 new heat pumps to replace our old AC units. The installation was scheduled and completed within a short time frame and done with as little disruption to our home and family as possible. Efficient and neat in their work, I can happily recommend Same Day Heating and AC. I am very reassured knowing that my furnaces and heat pumps can effectively and safely heat and cool our home for our family. Peace of mind is priceless when it comes to protecting your family."

"Did a great job...it was a very long day from start to finish however. They did a great job of keeping everything as clean as they could since our attic access was in the master closet! Yikes! Really made a difference and our house stayed much cooler with the fan and new insulation!"

"I can’t say enough good things about Five Star! From the initial consultation through the entire project, they provided outstanding service on my home’s complex layout. They were incredibly honest and down-to-earth—patiently walking me through options and talking me out of upgrades that would’ve cost more but added little value. That straightforward advice is rare and greatly appreciated. They installed a mini-split with two air handlers plus two separate furnaces and AC units, all on budget and on schedule. The systems have performed excellently. They’ve been extremely responsive on issues (low Freon once, and my dirty filter another time), fixing everything quickly with no hassle. Out of all the subcontractors I’ve worked with, this team is the absolute best"

"Great job. Anthony did a complete review of the house and the current venting and recommended the proper size for the AC. The installers and electricians came 3 days later, did additional wiring and piping and installed the entire system in 5 hours."

Air Conditioning questions, 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.

An undersized whole-house generator has the potential to overheat and shut down when you try to run a central AC system. This scenario can not only damage the whole-house generator, but can also trip your home’s breakers or cause electrical damage. To avoid this situation, hire a local generator installer to correctly size your whole-house generator.

No, it's not safe to keep using your unit when it's frozen. Not only can running a frozen unit lead to damage, but it can also potentially overheat, making it a fire hazard. Therefore, it's always best to turn off the AC unit as soon as you notice any ice.

Most AC repair technicians will take between two and six hours to carry out repairs, depending on the work needed and the accessibility of the unit. For example, recharging refrigerant lines should take one to two hours to service, while replacing a compressor, blower fan, or other major components can take five to eight hours. You can ask your AC repair technician how long they expect the job to take, but just in case, you should plan on being home and available for most of the day.

A damper motor can last up to 15 years, but it can wear out more quickly than that if you run your HVAC unit a lot. So you might expect a longer life in a colder climate than if you live in a warmer climate.
