"They are the absolute best in the area. They had to order a part and still got the job done in under 8 days. Calvin had great communication line telling me exactly what needed to be replaced and the status of the job. They will be taking care of all of my future HVAC needs. Best company in the Springfield area!!"

"After a scorching week with temps hovering in the upper 90's, I didn't think I would be able to get anyone here so quickly. I called Bob on a Saturday morning around 8am, and surprisingly enough, he was able to be here within a few hours. I explained the problem and he answered all of my questions. Lucky for me, I only needed freeon. Seems to be working. He was informative, friendly, and someone I felt I could trust. His prices were reasonable, too. I would recommend him to anyone. In fact, I have his receipt on my fridge waiting for the fall, so he can come out and inspect my furnace to make sure I'm good for the cold weather. It's sure nice to know there are people still around that are honest and just not after your last buck! Kuddos to Bob!"

"We own a home-based business which relies heavily on our computers operating efficiently. We have had a service contract with another computer repair business for several years. Recently when we were having problems with our computers, we tried contacting our service contractor multiple times. He never responded. Feeling frustrated, I contacted James at North Alabama Technical Services and explained our situation. He instantly came to our rescue. He "cleaned-up" our computers and took care of all the problems we were experiencing. He went above and beyond to help us in our dire time of need. We would strongly recommend James and his company for computer service needs. We have now retained him on a service contract and are looking forward to working with him in the future."

"James and Fred removed an old worn out unit and replaced it with a new one. They were awesome. They were on time and professional. Completed the job in a short amount of time. Got everything up and running I highly recommend using them for air conditioning or heating needs. Had them replace a furnace a few years ago and had the same wonderful service then."

Heating and Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

Air filters with a high MERV rating, 11 or above, shouldn't cause airflow problems in most residential systems. However, the airflow can be restricted in some HVAC systems if they aren't designed for high MERV ratings. If in doubt, a local duct installer should inspect your ductwork so that you know what your system can handle.

The standard HVAC warranty is around five years. Still, many brands offer an extension to 10 years if you register the product within a specific timeframe, typically 60 to 90 days post-purchase or HVAC installation. Over the past decade, warranty periods have substantially increased, shifting from 3-5 years in the 90s to the now-prevalent 10+ year warranties. Both warranty types cover parts failing due to manufacturer defects, incurring no additional costs. Some manufacturers provide extended warranties surpassing the usual 15- to 20-year window, though these often involve extra fees. 

A damper motor can last up to 15 years, but it can wear out more quickly than that if you run your HVAC unit a lot. So you might expect a longer life in a colder climate than if you live in a warmer climate.

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.

If both your furnace and AC unit are more than a decade old, it may be a good idea to replace both of them. However, your furnace can last up to three decades, and your air conditioner can typically last up to 15 years, so consulting with a pro before deciding to replace both of them is best. If it’s before that time limit for each, you can fix many problems with repairs or just replace one.
