"Top-notch installation! The new HVAC system is super efficient and the crew explained everything clearly. They handled the entire job with care. I feel the temperature difference immediately?very satisfied!"
"We noticed a foul smell coming from one of the vents in our HVAC system. We turned the system off and called AC Dave. Dave sent Justin and James to troubleshoot the problem. They quickly found a tear in one of our ducts--and the remains of a dead rodent. They cut open the duct, cleaned it and resealed it. We had heat again, about an hour after they arrived. Very fast and competent service."
"Haroon provided excellent HVAC service from start to finish at Help-Me HVAC LLC. He was professional, punctual, and courteous, and he took the time to explain everything clearly. The service was efficient, the workmanship was excellent, and the whole experience was smooth and stress-free. I would definitely recommend Help-Me HVAC LLC and Haroon for reliable HVAC service."
"My HVAC unit stopped producing heat so I called the folks at around the clock. They offered to come out the same day and after taking a look up on our roof determined it was a faulty control board. We talked a little about the lifespan of the unit and that while it was probably going to need to be replaced in the next 5 years or so, it made more sense to simply replace the board today. So he scheduled an appointment for the following day to come back with the replacement board. 1 day later and 15 minutes of work and I have heat again."

"You can tell Rob has been servicing HVACs for years. He conducted a diligent inspection of the air conditioning system at my new home and walked me through every aspect of it's condition, which gave me a real peace of mind. He's very transparent with his pricing too. I'll be sure to call upon him for my next service."
"Joel responded right away and got to our property shortly after. He clearly explained what was going on with our HVAC heater, along with pictures of the problem, and went and got parts and completed the job all in time for us to have heat into during the cold night. Great job!"
"Victor and Ricky were very helpful from the beginning and during the installation. These guys are professional, very knowledgeable, skillful, and did a superb job. After getting a few bids from different contractors, I awarded the installation of a complete HVAC system because they were easy to communicate with and always willing to answer questions and provided the best price for my system. They really worked with me more than the other prospective contractors. I would highly recommend Victor and Ricky for any HVAC Job repair or complete installation. I would hire them again. Ben"
Heating and Air Conditioning FAQs, answered by experts
No, a furnace is not the same thing as an AC, or air conditioner, but these are both parts of an HVAC system. They both use air ducts to transport cool or hot air around your home to achieve a comfortable temperature set by your thermostat. An AC runs on electricity, while a furnace can use different fuel sources.
Modern AC leak sealants work as a temporary measure to stop refrigerant leaks. You can purchase them at most home improvement stores or on online. When using an AC leak sealant, keep in mind that it’s only a temporary solution, so you’ll still need to hire a pro to install a replacement part as soon as possible.
Yes, scorpions can enter a home through AC vents, especially if the system is not well-sealed. As excellent climbers, they can scale a home's exterior and squeeze through gaps as small as 1/16 of an inch. Scorpions are often attracted to the moisture around air conditioning ducts or seek cooler areas during hot weather, using vents as a pathway inside. They may slip through small openings where the duct meets the vent cover and travel within walls before emerging. To prevent this, inspect your vents, seal any gaps, and consider installing fine mesh screens.
Because of the improved efficiency, ACs with higher SEER ratings tend to cool down your home better than models with a lower SEER. Higher-SEER AC units have a higher cooling capacity and a lower energy demand, meaning they may help cool your space faster without running up the electricity bill.
There are a few things you can do to make your AC repair technician’s job easier and your home more comfortable while you wait for AC repair:
Cut back trees, shrubs, and weeds around the outdoor compressor
Clear a pathway inside and outside to your AC components
Set up a ladder for attic access if necessary
Pull your window AC out of the window and place in an easily accessible spot
Supplement with fans and open windows to help keep your house comfortable
