"Of all the people I've had work on my home renovation in the last year, these guys were my favorite. Prompt, professional, honest, and reliable. When Duke came to give us the estimate, my 2 year old daughter wanted to give him a hug before he left which is unprecedented. That pretty much sealed the deal for us. They were also far and away the most reasonable quote we got. Even a friend quoted us $1500 more for less work. The installers were on time and knew their stuff. The install work is top notch as well. Everything in place and looks well put together. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for HVAC work."

"We had to upgrade our old furnace and AC so we decided to look around and call a couple companies to come and give us a quote. We decided to go with Smart heating and air, their prices were upfront and fair. We got our systems installed in a very professional manner. All the technicians wore masks, they used foot covers and put down cloths to protect our floors. After they installed they tested both ac and heater to make sure it was working. The cool thing about it is that we can control the temperature with our nest app without getting up with our phone. I love this bc I was always forgetting to turn off our system but now I can do it anywhere. I totally recommend this company. We will use them for any HVAC related concerns."

"Jorge, Angel, Ishmael, and George were fantastic. Jorge was honest and straight in the initial conversations. He gave me multiple options for systems and their functionality. When I made my selection I was given a very fair price for the work that was to be done. He was very helpful in acquiring good financing that bested my Credit Union and Bank. The work was done quickly with great attention to the fine details. I now have an efficient and functional HVAC unit. If you need repairs or a replacement HVAC system you could not do better than selecting Elite Heating and Air for your job. I'm telling all my friends that if they need any work done - "I've got a guy"..."

"Perfect Star sent a technician out to assess my HVAC issue. and it turned out to be my ducts had been torn apart by critters getting into my crawl space and trying to nest. I got a crawl space cleanup crew to address that problem but Martin (my HVAC technician) told me about an air purifier that could be installed to my HVAC units. He installed those for me right away and they are working great."

"I needed to have the vents cleaned before I could get my dryer fixed. They came the same day. Assessed the situation and cleaned the vent within 30 mins. A pleasure to have."

"These guys are just excellent! I made a few mistakes before I got lucky to find New Millennium HVAC. They were professional from the beginning to the end. Jose did a thorough job, cleaning the dryer vent. It was not a straightforward issue and I was afraid that we’d have to open the wall to cure the blockage. However, Jose was able to fix it. He’s an experienced professional excellent at his job, trustworthy and overall great to deal with. I’m a happy customer for years now and will rely on these guys for any HVAC related issues."

Heating and Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

As mentioned above, not all HVAC Schrader valves are necessarily the same. While the valve core and pin or spring size on Schrader valves used for HVAC are generally similar, the valves are not all universal and interchangeable. The size of Schrader valves varies depending on whether it's used in an air conditioner, bicycle tire, or motor vehicle tire.

While personal preferences widely vary, sleep experts say the best temperature for sleeping is between 60 and 67 degrees Fahrenheit rather than 78. If you do choose to sleep with your AC unit tuned to 78 degrees, you might want to use only a sheet or light blanket rather than a comforter. You might also consider installing a window unit in your bedroom so that you can be cooler in bed without wasting energy cooling the whole house.

If you know how to identify supply and return ducts, you’ll find that only the supply ducts will have dampers. Although your return ducts can have dampers, it’s not common. If you have one return duct that is pulling in too much air, adding a damper to it can help with overall system performance. However, dampers on return ducts are not a necessary addition for most homes.

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.

No, you don’t need a ductless unit in every room. Ductless AC units don't work the way that window units do, where the air doesn't travel outside that room. The indoor air handlers all attach to the outdoor condenser. While the air doesn't travel the way that traditional ductwork would, the ductless AC units create zones so that one part of the home can be cooler than another. They can spread effectively enough that indoor units only need to be placed in main living areas.
