"We hired Airmercia Air Conditioning & Heating to evaluate our heating system and propose repair solution. Ryan was very professional and punctual. He did not make any force sales. He just offered various repair and replacement solutions and explained pros and cons for each one. We decided to replace our furnace and duct system. Ryan did an excellent Job!! I highly recommend him for your HVAC project."

"Crew showed up on time. Job was completed in an hour. Afterwards my entire home was covered in a layer of sheetrock dust. One crew member wiped the dining table and kitchen countertop. I was shocked at the amount of dust. I spent the next 2 days vacuuming everything including the walls! The bedspreads and comforters will require a trip to the dry cleaner. Additional cost! And NO the price did not include a new air filter!"

"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."

"My ac, heater, and thermostat all went out at the same time. I called an hvac company and they said I needed a new furnace and ac and it'd be $12k. I called Heating and Air 365 to try to get a cheaper quote on a new system. Tommy came out and said the system was fine. It just had a short in the thermostat wires by the ac, my dog must have chewed through them. He replaced the wires and fixed something in the furnace and everything is working great. He saved me thousands. It's refreshing to see some honesty out there. He's got my business for life."

"At the beginning of the heatwave last week, I received a call from the family renting my condo in East County and they informed me that the AC stopped working. I tried a half dozen HVAC companies and none of them were available to provide service until the end of the week. I received a call from JMS West HVAC and they were available to provide service on that same day! Within two hours, the AC unit was repaired and my rental family was safe for the long hot week. The JMS repair crew was extremely professional and took care of business. Thank you!"

Heating and Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

The length of an AC cycle depends on the settings in your thermostat and the unit you have. Central AC doesn't constantly run at full blast the way that a window unit does. A cooling cycle in most homes is 15 to 20 minutes. Then, the unit stays off for seven to 10 minutes to circulate the cold air in the house before the cycle repeats. It should repeat two or three times per hour. A short cycle lasts less than 10 minutes and then turns off.

If refrigerant levels are low, it can cause the evaporator coil to freeze up. Low freon causes a drop in pressure, which will make the coil too cold and cause moisture to freeze on the coil. Your system may be low on refrigerant because of a leak. 

Make sure to have maintenance performed twice a year, and contact your local HVAC technician if you suspect your system has low freon levels.

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.

If your home has an existing forced-air heat system, you can add a central air conditioner to it. An HVAC technician can retrofit your forced-air heating system by installing an evaporator coil onto the furnace plenum, the box next to the furnace that draws in air. Once installed, the air conditioning coils use the furnace’s blower to circulate the air.

You may be able to clean mold from your air conditioner in some cases. If the mold growth only takes up a small area, you can use either vinegar or bleach mixed with water to remove it. Larger areas of mold should be left to the professionals, though. It's also a good idea to leave mold removal to the pros if you are sensitive to mold or have asthma.
