"The two technicians, Brian and David, were phenomenal! They were incredibly kind, informative, and patient with me as they assessed my HVAC and vents. They explained the entire process and why what they were doing is important based on the type of system I have. As a relatively new homeowner with an old home this is very important to me. They did a thorough job of cleaning my air vents and dryer vent and I feel confident they left my home cleaner and much safer than when they arrived. I would highly recommend this company for all your HVAC needs."

"From soup to nuts, the entire experience was made easy for us by the company. The salesman, Nick, came out to see us the day after my system kicked the bucket, and after checking out the system, he presented me with a few different options, and without using fancy words, explained everything plainly and easy for me to understand. After I discussed things with my wife, we called him a few hours later to give the go-ahead, and he had us scheduled just 2 days out. The installation team arrived promptly at the scheduled window, and took care to treat our house like it was their own. Drop cloths were used to protect my flooring, and after the job was done they made sure to remove all the debris from the job so nothing was left. After the job was done, the job foreman took me around and showed me everything that they did and explained the function of the system, and when I had questions, they explained plainly and without complaint or exasperation. They treated me and my house with the utmost respect. I highly recommend this company for any HVAC needs anyone might have."

Customers say: Quick response

"I cannot recommend this cleaning company highly enough! I hired them to do a deep clean on a three-story townhome to get it ready for the rental market, and they exceeded every expectation. Preparing a rental property is always stressful, but they made the transition seamless. Managing three floors of living space is no small feat, but the team tackled it with incredible efficiency and attention to detail. Here is what really impressed me: Flawless Attention to Detail: They didn't just do a surface wipe-down. They got into every nook and cranny, from the baseboards and window tracks to the inside of the appliances and cabinets. Tackled the High-Traffic Areas: With three floors, stairs can be a nightmare to get perfectly clean. They made the stairwells and banisters look brand new. Professional & Reliable: They arrived right on time, brought all their own high-quality supplies, and worked tirelessly until the job was done."

"Very well. Sunny's Services not only moved our new stand up freezer into our house, they removed the old one AND all the packing materials from the new one. They even advised us not to plug in the new one for a couple hours because they tipped it when they moved it. They were on time, courteous and the price was very reasonable."

"The technician, Steve, called me 25 minutes prior to his arrival. He was extremely knowledgeable about my gas fireplace. He vacuumed all areas. He informed me of the condition of the components. I was prepared to ask him a handful of questions that he was able to answer. My fireplace works very well and I strongly recommend using the Chimney Experts."

Heating and Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

No, it’s not normal for AC vents to drip condensation. A sweating AC vent is a sign of something wrong and can lead to issues like air duct rust or mold growth. Your HVAC unit might not be working efficiently because of a dirty filter or clogged ducts. Alternatively, your ductwork might not have adequate insulation, which allows the cool air in the ducts to meet the humid air outside, causing condensation. 

One of the fastest ways to unfreeze an AC unit is to turn off the unit and, if it’s warm outside, use the fan-only mode to help blow warmer air through the unit to speed up the defrosting process. While it may be tempting to use a hair dryer to defrost the air conditioner, that high heat can damage the coils.

After defrosting, if you can safely solve the issue with a fix like changing the filter, go ahead and do so. Otherwise, call in a pro before turning your AC back on.

If you’re looking for a portable, budget-friendly cooling solution that doesn’t require any venting or installation, a ventless AC system is a good option. Similarly, this is a great choice if you’re renting an apartment or home and aren’t allowed to make large, structural changes like installing comprehensive HVAC, or you’re in a shared space and only need to cool your own room.

To keep your air conditioner in good working condition, you should have it serviced by a professional at least once per year, ideally in the spring before the cooling season begins. If your AC unit is 10 years or older, consider servicing it twice a year (once in the spring and once in the fall) to catch potential problems early and help it reach its full lifespan. During a service visit, a technician will inspect, clean, and replace parts as needed. Regular maintenance helps avoid costly repairs. As a DIY task, you can also clean the evaporator coils annually.

The standard rule for return duct sizing is that the return vent should be the same size or larger than the supply vent. This will ensure balanced airflow in your home and reduce strain on your HVAC system.
