"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!"
"AC Dave is a skilled and trustworthy HVAC company that does quality work at a competitive price. I had an aging four ton system that was on its last leg. My funds were tight at the time, so they suggested installing more efficient ducting to extend the system’s life. That was three years ago, which allowed me to save for the inevitable expense of replacement. And when that time came, I was given a comprehensive estimate and the installation went smoothly. They also did a follow up to tweak the system for maximum reliability. AC Dave is a small company, so you may not get next-day service, but they will work with you and stand by their work. In today’s less and less neighborly world, that is a real asset."
"My interaction with Air-Tech went very smoothy. Alex Fish, the customer representative was very professional and easy to work with. He provided a clear and detailed proposal , with options, before leaving the site on his first visit. Alex stayed in communication throughout the project. As a result of this experience I plan to have Air-Tech take over the maintenance on my main HVAC system."
"This review is about Air Duct Professionals and I want you to know that I finally found a company that was honest and professional. Because when I was at the end of my wits trying to figure out who was telling me the truth, I called Ed Mack the owner and he was reassuring that my home was not that old to be having all these problems. He referred me to a website for the Air Duct Cleaners Association and read about what air duct cleaning really does. So I had Air Duct Professionals come out to the inspection and they have an actual HVAC guy on their staff. Immediately looking at how new and well maintained our air system was in the attic, he told us those other companies were trying to scam us. Air Duct Professionals did a great job cleaning out all of our air ducts and dryer vent and cleaning up after themselves. I whole-heartedly recommend this company for their professional work and honesty."
"Can't recommend Dean and Efficiency Air enough. After getting quotes from 4 different companies we were lucky enough to try one more and I couldn't believe how much Dean knew about HVAC systems and all of the different brands, as well as being even on top of future HVAC government regulations and rebates! They do business the old fashion way and will work on the job until you are satisfied. Dean and Efficiency Air are what HVAC Legend is made of."
"Had a new HVAC unit installed at my rental home. Was walked through the bid process and the work was done very quickly. Appreciate the customer service I received. Everyone was professional and answered my quetions."
"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."
"Great job, Workers are great and they know HVAC. They are a great team and very nice people. Owner is very sincere & reliable. He will work with you on the best equipment...... you get what you pay for.!!!!!!!!"
"HD Mechanical got all our commercials units back in order. They provided excellent customer service and we will be using them from now on for all our commercial and residential HVAC needs!"
"Haroon Sayed was great. He came by, assessed my issues with the furnace, thoroughly explained everything to me and provided me with my options on repairing or replacing the system.
He was very professional & friendly man,and Highly recommend them if AC/Furnace issues"
Heating and Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts
While 72 degrees is a comfortable setting for many people, it’s likely not the most efficient temperature setting for your air conditioning unit. By pushing the temperature up to 75 or 78 degrees, you stand to save money on your energy bill. That said, these temperatures may be too warm to be comfortable for some people and are definitely too warm for most people to sleep comfortably.
Most HVAC companies charge a flat service call fee of between $75 and $150, which includes traveling to your home and inspecting your system to find the underlying problem. Keep in mind that these prices only include diagnostics and the actual repairs will usually be billed separately. If you’re calling for routine service, the service call will be included in your inspection and tune-up, with the total sitting around $150. Your prices could be a little higher if you have a very large home with multiple condensers and air handlers, as inspections and servicing take longer.
Common signs of insufficient return air include uneven temperatures, with some parts of your home feeling hotter or colder than others, and noticeable differences in air pressure between rooms. You might also observe that more air is blowing in rooms closer to the AC unit. Leaky air ducts can also be a related issue or clue.
The cost to replace an AC evaporator coil is typically between $600 and $2,500, with an average cost around $1,300 to $1,350. The price of the coil itself can range from $550 to $1,100, depending on the brand, size, and style, with professional labor adding around $700. Replacing a condenser coil is generally less expensive, costing about $800. Because this repair involves handling refrigerants, it requires a licensed AC professional. Regular inspections, which cost between $200 and $600, can help prevent costly coil replacements.
Florida rooms can have heat or air conditioning, although not all do. These rooms can be added to the existing HVAC system or use a mini-split system, or they may just use a ceiling fan or the breeze from the windows for cooling. Florida rooms with air conditioning often have glass windows to keep the cool inside instead of just mesh screens.
