"I purchased a Deal, spoke with Ken, the owner, and he was flexible about my schedule changes (due to the tile job taking longer). Since a crew was running behind, he came himself to do the work late in the afternoon knowing that I needed the vent cleaning that day before we moved in. Ken did an amazingly through job of cleaning and disinfecting, and shared his knowledge about HVAC systems and duct routing the whole time. He analyzed our system capacity, checked the duct routing in the attic, and gave us options for improving our HVAC system in future when the existing equipment is ready for replacement. So not just a simple service - an informed future strategy! Can't say enough about how impressed we were with A Breath of Fresh Aire, we will definitely use their services again."

"The contractor Daniel Wilson is an excellent sales representative of AIRNOW, HVAC Services. I found him to be extremely helpful in selecting the correct unit for my particular application. he did not sell my an item that I would not need. He re-assured me of the selected product. The price point and over-all installation process was directly on point. the service technicians that completed the install were just superb. (Rocky & Eric) installed the mini-split system and were just outstanding. The electricians that came out the day before the install were equally outstanding as well. The bottom line is AIRNOW is a very wise choice for HVAC installation and service!!!"

"Fontana Brothers did a great job, starting with the first time we met to get their quote. They explained everything thoroughly and gave the pros and cons for each option offered. There was no attempt to sell me something I didn't need. The crew showed up on time, they worked all day and into the night, and were very polite. They made a few modifications to our duct work that wasn't in the proposal, but needed to be done to increase the efficiency of the system, and didn't ask for a dime more. Once they were finished and left, the whole area was picked up and so clean you hardly knew they'd been here. Everything works great and we're very happy we hired them."

"This is my second experience with Bill Bowers Air Conditioning & Heating. They installed a new system many years ago and kept it in good running order for a long time. If something went wrong, a repairman was here within 24 hours, usually sooner. So when the old system went kaput, I called them to put in a new one. They did it the next day! The installed a Amana 16 SEER for just a couple of hundred dollars ore the I had paid for the old unit many years ago. Tony and Armando were thorough and neat and left the work site clean and tidy. Experience has shown me that if there is ever a problem, the Bill Bowers team will be here quickly to take care of it. I highly recommend this company."

"They came out on Father's Day to install our new air conditioning unit. They came back out to seal up the hole in the ceiling of our garage that had been open when we bought the house. Now even our un-air conditioned garage is cooler!"

Air Conditioning FAQs, answered by experts

Choosing between a ductless mini-split and central AC depends on your specific needs. Ductless mini-splits are ideal for targeted cooling, providing zoned comfort and energy efficiency. They are perfect for smaller spaces or homes lacking ductwork. In contrast, central AC offers consistent cooling throughout the entire house but requires ductwork and may be less energy-efficient for smaller spaces. 

Consider factors like budget, home size, and cooling preferences to make the right choice. Combining both systems, with a ductless mini-split in specific areas, can also be a viable solution for tailored comfort and overall efficiency.

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.

Yes, adding central air can increase your home value by as much as 10%. Generally speaking, prospective buyers prefer a central AC system over a ductless system or room-by-room AC units. That’s because central air conditioning blends into the home easier than individual room air conditioners and typically has less equipment to maintain.

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.

There are two main reasons your furnace and AC are turning on at the same time. The first could be that you’re confusing the furnace with the blower. The blower is located in the furnace and will turn on to distribute cool air from the air conditioner through the ductwork in the home. This is normal. If the actual furnace is turning on at the same time as the AC and hot and cool air are coming into the home, it could be a result of incorrect writing to a new thermostat or new systems.
