"I was really impressed with the service provided by Nadav and he is team. I have a thirty year old home that still had the original HVAC systems. One located in the attic and the other underneath the house. Neither of these installations was simple. The Sky Clean Air team quoted me two days to remove and install new systems. The install crew was really professional, courteous and hard working. The underneath the house install was especially difficult with a tight crawl space in a less than hospital environment. These guys were not a show up at 10 leave at 3 pm crew.......they worked long hours both days to ensure they met the promised schedule.They kept me informed any issues throughout the installation process so there were no surprises. At the end of two days we had two beautifully installed systems that now cool our 4000 sq ft house in a matter of an hour instead of the 4 or 5 the old system required. I feel that the pricing they gave me was very fair and at the end of the job I felt like I got more value than what I paid. I would certainly use them again in the future."

"Will came on time and came in and told me had did several of the homes in my area, so he wouldn't need to do a load-test for our home. I felt a little nervous about not doing a load test because I know too small or too big of a a/c unit both have its problem, but I took it on good faith that he knew what he was doing. He asked me what I wanted, I told him just basic a/c unit., as I wouldn't be using it much (just for very hot days). He provided me with 2 options - a complete new HVAC system ($9,545.31) or just an A/C Unit & Compressor ($7,652.31). He also explained that Carini was extremely busy and that they were 1 month out on scheduling any installations."

Hydro jet uses water at 4,000psi to clean the inside of the mainline drain which connects all the home's drains to the city's sewer system.
Using a snake we can go through the cleanouts on the side of the house.
With the cleanouts snaked, and the blockage located, we can send the hydro jet through the sewer vent and flush out the blocked drain.

"Excellent work. Far surpassed expectations. Highly competent & professional from initial analysis of multiple problems and engineered a solution followed by a fast, efficient tear-out and installation by terrific crew to final clean-up. Excellent value. Job was professionally done the way the original installing HVAC contractor should have done years ago. Highly recommended."

"Eric Young came to my house to provide a quote to replace my furnace. My usual HVAC guy told me it needed to be replaced. While Eric was checking it out I asked if he could troubleshoot it and tell me why it wasn't working. He said for sure. So, I asked him how much. He said $69. I said do it. In less than 5 minutes he found what was wrong and fixed it! Wow. He told me the romex connector on the motherboard (that my HVAC replaced) was installed backwards so there was no power going to the furnace. That saved me thousands of dollars it would have cost had I listened to my HVAC guy! He's not my HVAC anymore. Eric Young is. He was thorough, efficient and pleasant to work with. I will contact Baker Electric from now on if I ever need their service again. I highly recommend them."

Heating and Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

Aside from needing HVAC repair, there are times when you may need to replace your unit. HVAC replacement costs $5,000 to $12,500. Here are some telltale signs that your HVAC unit is going bad:

  • Your unit is 10 years or older.

  • Your home is very humid.

  • The unit keeps cycling without producing cool air.

  • You need to repair the unit frequently.

AC drip pans last five to 20 years, depending on the material. Plastic AC drip pans last five to 10 years, while metal pans can last over 10 years. Plastic AC drip pans are vulnerable to cracking in response to temperature changes. Metal drip pans are prone to rusting over time, which can also lead to leaks.

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.

Ideally, an AC system should never need more Freon (a popular refrigerant) because it circulates in a closed loop. However, refrigerant leaks are not uncommon and may occur gradually over 5 to 15 years. If your system has a leak, it will need to be topped up in a process known as an AC recharge. Signs of a refrigerant leak include weakened AC performance, increased humidity in your home, higher utility bills, and a hissing sound from the unit. The cost of an AC recharge will depend on the size and type of your AC unit, as well as the type of refrigerant it uses.

It’s critical to use the right size AC for your space and not go too small or too big. If you purchase an undersized unit, it won’t properly cool your house, and it has to work harder to reach the optimal temperature. This will eventually wear your unit out. An oversized unit can spell trouble because it will turn off and on more frequently, which also wears out your AC unit. An oversized unit also causes humidity in the home.
