"Highly recommend. Found this company last year on Angie's List and this is the second time using them. I was in a pinch as the A/C went out and we have a little baby. I called and they got someone out the same day. Jeff was great...knowledgeable, friendly and answered a lot of questions! Got the unit working again! These are my go-to HVAC guys!"

"Francisco of United Heating and Air Conditioning is the greatest, and I will hire him again happily and hope to have him service my system yearly going forward. He came today as promised and found that my thermostat only needed batteries, but my system was otherwise fine. He is very good and extremely honest and informative."

"AWE promptly responded to my work request and kept me informed about my appointment status. Peter came to perform the work. He was very thorough and even discovered that the HVAC contractor on our new home installed 2 furnaces: a current year model as well as a prior year model that was more prone to breakdowns. Provided great information and would definitely hire again. Thanks!"

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.

A non-maintained AC is more likely to perform poorly, increase your energy bills, and undergo more severe issues like breakage and water damage. That’s why DIY cleaning or professional maintenance is recommended annually. Otherwise, you might end up paying more in the end than you would for annual service. You can purchase cheap AC cleaning kits if you prefer going the DIY route.

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. 

Water buildup in your HVAC system is a cause for alarm. If water accumulates in your ductwork, it can drastically lower your home's air quality and create safety hazards. These risks include mold growth, damage to your HVAC system, and attracting pests that are seeking water into your ducts. Proper insulation and sealing of ducts can prevent this, and regular inspection and maintenance can address water damage problems before they become too severe.

The cost to add Freon to an AC ranges from $100 to $350. It can increase up to $600 for large AC units requiring much more coolant. The cost also depends on how much refrigerant your unit needs. If only a small amount of Freon leaked out, your cost would be on the lower side. A complete replacement of all the required refrigerant can get expensive.
