"I was very impressed with Rich throughout the entire process of working with him. He gave us the best price for the same appliances the other companies were going to install. Rich was the only one who actively followed up and answered all of my questions prior to hiring him. When we did hire him, he arrived on schedule and completed the job on schedule as well. I was very impressed with his professionalism. I would recommend Rich to anyone in the market for a new HVAC system. I will hire him again for maintenance and other HVAC needs."

"We woke up to a 63 degree house.  Not good in Illinois in early February.  Checked the boiler, and the pilot light was out.  I could not get it to light again.  I contacted an HVAC only company, and they told me, since it was a boiler system, I needed to contact a plumber.  Ameriplumb has been recommended to me by Custom Home Updates, so I called.  They fit me into their busy schedule the same day (rare these days), fixed the problem (thermocoupler) at a very reasonable price, and they were very pleasant, courteous and efficient.  Heat was on that evening (which is good to know with a one year old in the house).

Heating and Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

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.

When first installed, flex ducts shouldn’t cause airflow problems in your home. However, because flex ducts aren’t the sturdiest and require extra support, they lose their durability over time and begin to sag, which can inhibit airflow down the road. Also, if your flex ducts aren’t tight enough, your HVAC could work twice as hard for the same air pressure. If you’re worried about the airflow in your home, a rigid duct may be your best bet.

The time it takes for an air conditioner to dry fully after cleaning depends on the unit's size and humidity levels. Most units will dry within two to four hours after cleaning, but check the manufacturer's recommendations for drying times. Make sure to leave the unit off until it's completely dry.

While an air conditioner can temporarily run with a dirty filter, it is not recommended as it will not work efficiently. A dirty filter forces the system to work harder to circulate cool air, leading to reduced airflow, increased wear and tear, and higher energy bills. This added strain can cause the air conditioner to overheat or fail prematurely. Furthermore, a clogged filter may allow dust and dirt to accumulate in your ductwork, negatively impacting air quality. It is more cost-effective to clean or replace filters regularly than to pay higher utility bills and risk needing to replace the entire AC unit.

The best way to compare HVAC quotes is getting a few detailed quotes from local companies with good reputations. Then, go over the quotes line by line. Protect yourself by insisting on in-person estimates that include equipment manufacturer names, model numbers, SEER ratings, amounts and numbers of materials, details of warranties on equipment and labor, and other specifics. 

Knowing the exact equipment and materials is the only way that you can fairly compare quotes. Quotes that are much lower than others can be a sign that the company isn’t providing the best quality service or materials.
