"Efficiency Air Inc is a fabulous company with excellent customer service and trained professional installers. I received a quote to install a mini split air conditioner/heat pump and we were overjoyed of the quality of work we received. They showed up on time and installed the system with ease. The install Manager â Deanâ was a true leader and got everything needed accomplished. I would recommend Dean and crew to anyone needing quality service. Thank you again for everything. Your lifetime customer Nathaniel G Santa Clarita, CA"

"Mike reached out to me on a Sunday morning after having gone to Home adviser after my previous AC guy refused service. He showed up when he said he would. Diagnosed and explain the situation and parts that needed replacement and considering part was all the way in Maryland he came thru for me and I'm very grateful for his services. Needed A/C working with this heat. Thank you Mike."

"

They were on time, professional, and had our new heater up and running with just the two scheduled visits. I will certainly use them again when we are ready to have our air conditioner replaced.


I would like to add that we received a call telling us that they would like to come out and take care of a scheduled inspection and service  of our air-conditioner. I told them that I hadn't scheduled that and was then informed that it was complimentary. I scheduled a 7am appointment so that I could leave for work on time. The Tech showed up on time, inspected, cleaned, and serviced our air-conditioner within the time frame that was promised. I was able to get to work on time and the air conditioner is working wonderfully. I have seen a couple of reviews that state they are a bit high priced but I find that you truly get what you pay for. Our heater was wonderful this last winter and the complimentary cleaning and servicing of our air conditioner was just an added bonus. Once again I would very highly recommend them.

  Feb-2016  New update for this wonderful company. We had a complimentary heater inspection and check-up and once again they were able to accommodate my work schedule. They came out early, checked and cleaned, replaced the filter, and got done in time for me to head off to work. They are very professional and I appreciate that.  Thanks again Wightons.

"I not only had an old furnace replaced but also had whole house air conditioning added. Very professional family business. Their estimate beat out two other HVAC businesses here in Lompoc⠦⠦ one of them by thousands of dollars. It paid to get three estimates. Daniel was easy to work with and honest. One of the other HVAC businesses in Lompoc is interested in selling you all kinds of stuff that increased his estimate by thousands of dollars. I highly recommend Ace Heating & AC."

Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

It’s normal to hear a low humming sound as air moves through your vents. Most of the time, you probably won’t even notice it. However, if that sound becomes disruptive or if you hear more concerning noises (such as rattling, clicking, banging, hissing, or grinding), there might be a problem with your HVAC system.

They can, but it’s not as common. Window AC units are much smaller than whole-house systems and less likely to develop refrigerant leaks or similar issues. As a result, you will rarely need to add a new refrigerant, limiting overcharging problems. However, it’s still important to leave refrigerant management in the hands of professionals when window units need work.

To lower humidity quickly, run a dehumidifier or your home's air conditioner or turn on exhaust fans to extract moisture. These methods can quickly and effectively bring your home's humidity levels to a comfortable condition. However, you should consistently practice humidity-reducing tasks to maintain proper indoor humidity levels.

When an evaporator coil becomes faulty, it can result in various problems within your HVAC system. These problems could include reduced cooling or heating capabilities due to ice formation and obstructed airflow, along with increased energy consumption and higher bills. Additionally, a damaged coil may lead to refrigerant leaks, which are environmentally harmful and decrease overall system efficiency.

Ultimately, if not addressed right away, a bad evaporator coil can even lead to a complete failure of your HVAC system. That’s why timely repair or replacement is crucial to maintaining your family’s comfort and your HVAC’s efficiency.

No, heat pump maintenance needs are very similar to air conditioners, including keeping outdoor units clean, changing filters regularly, and occasionally scheduling a refrigerant check to see if any has leaked out. Heat pumps typically switch automatically between heating and cooling, so you don’t need to worry about manually changing them every season. However, since they are always on call, they can develop wear and tear faster than an air conditioner.
