"Absolute 1st Choice will absolutely be our 1st choice. He deserves more than 5 Stars. He found problems that were more serious than the one we hired him to fix. He explained what needed to be done and offered to do it. He made no attempt to "upsell' us on anything. He stayed until the project was completed to our satisfaction. He was well organized, professional and trustworthy. Trustworthiness is the most important thing, without that I might as well have tried to fix it myself. I know that wouldn't have ended well. If you hire a company with a fleet of fancy trucks and prime time TV ads, you can be fairly sure that the service tech will , at some point, magically transform into a a salesman. Thank you, Home Advisor!!!"

"New Era HVAC was amazing! I own a small business that has a very challenging environment to work around. Jared was extremely professional and minimized the disruption to our routine. We have large warehouse heaters. A few years ago we had one installed by another company. They left a huge mess, took 2 1/2 days to do the work and had no regard for disrupting our business. In contrast, when Jared replaced the second one he was done in one day, left the area clean and neat when he left, and was extremely accommodating with us. We have also had a tankless water heater replaced by New Era and had the same experience. Professional, honest, and reliable - you will not find a better company out there!!"

"Tony was very easy to work with and accommodating. I had narrowed my choice to 3 firms. Elevation was not the cheapest nor the most expensive but I felt most comfortable with Tony and believe he offered the most value. My air conditioner was installed today, I hope this will be the start of a great (and cool) relationship."

Heating and Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

There are a few ways to determine if a vent is open or closed. You can inspect the vent and examine the position of the fins. If there are spaces between them, the vent is open. If the fins are flat and touching, the vent is closed. You can also stand under the vent when the system is running to see if you feel air flowing through it.

Not if you have a standard unit. Because portable AC units actually work to dehumidify the room, you’ll likely need to drain the unit from time to time—but you won’t have to put water into it. There is, however, another type of air conditioner called a swamp cooler that requires water to operate. If you have a swamp cooler, you may need to fill a reservoir with water and potentially ice. But a swamp cooler is different from a standard portable AC unit.

The top reason to purchase an HVAC maintenance contract is the fact that it ensures you are detecting problems before they turn into expensive fixes. Secondly, this type of contract provides priority service, which is nice if it’s peak busy season. Finally, an HVAC maintenance contract provides discounts on parts and labor for repairs, which can save you a good amount of money if your unit breaks.

The size window AC you need depends on the BTU and the size of the room you’re cooling. For a room with 8-foot ceilings, look for about 20 BTU per square foot of the room. For example, a 12-by-12-foot room should have an air conditioner with 2,880 BTU. You can buy something slightly more powerful, but don’t overshoot the BTU for a small room, or you’ll waste energy and have higher bills.

If possible, avoid placing furniture in front of a return air vent. A blocked air vent can cause your HVAC system to use more energy, which in turn can lower the life span of your unit and raise your energy bill. Furniture can also trap hot or cold air, damaging your furniture or appliances. 

Professional duct installers suggest leaving between six and 12 inches of space in front of an air return vent. If you must place furniture in front of a return air vent, try to aim for putting furniture over a floor vent instead of in front of a wall vent, and avoid draping curtains over any vent system.
