"I came home on a warm Friday early evening from work to find that our AC was not working. After making one call to another company who serviced our unit years ago and getting their voicemail, I waited a couple of hours then contacted my friend Maggi from Tyler. She responded immediately and the technician, Jonathan had the AC up and running by 9:30 the next morning. Thank you!"

"Tom Mull talked to me on the phone and told me there was a 60% chance that he could fix it cheap. Then Mr. Mull came out and looked at it in person and told me that there was a cheap fix, and that there was a 50% chance that this would fix the problem for a while, so I told him to go ahead. Unfortunately, when his service tech came out to look at the oil tank, he told me there was a 0% chance that he could fix it cheap and that I needed a new oil tank. I did wind up getting a new oil tank, but not from Mull Brothers."

Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

It’s critical to use the right size AC for your space and not go too small or too big. If you purchase an undersized unit, it won’t properly cool your house, and it has to work harder to reach the optimal temperature. This will eventually wear your unit out. An oversized unit can spell trouble because it will turn off and on more frequently, which also wears out your AC unit. An oversized unit also causes humidity in the home.

Turn your system off when you're toasty or when you're out to prevent unnecessary wear. Using the timer on your thermostat so that it switches off when it reaches a certain temperature or turns on just before you get back from work is best. An annual maintenance contract can be helpful to ensure your system receives these important services at regular intervals.

During the summer, it’s best to set your AC to 78 degrees when you’re home and awake, according to the Department of Energy (DOE). For better energy efficiency, raise the temperature slightly to 85 degrees while you’re out of the house. The National Sleep Foundation advises lowering your thermostat to between 60 and 67 degrees when you’re asleep.

Yes, AC coil cleaning is definitely worth it. Cleaning your AC coils ensures your AC unit will function efficiently for the long term. Dirty and grimy AC coils make your unit work harder to cool your home, resulting in higher electric bills. Additionally, having your coils professionally cleaned regularly will reduce the possibility of extensive maintenance and repair costs.

You can buy a house with a 15-year-old HVAC system if you inspect the system for performance and budget for a replacement within the next three years. You can also negotiate the price with the sellers. Ask to look at the unit’s maintenance records and energy bills for the last two years to determine the shape of the HVAC system and its operating costs. Spend time in each room of the house to gauge if the HVAC keeps the home at a consistent temperature throughout.
