Majano Heating and AC came out on schedule. They found that the AC breaker had tripped, and guessed that this was caused by the compressor going bad. I felt stupid for not checking the breaker myself. They charged me $60 for a call-out fee, which I suppose is about average. They also quoted a...

"My experience with Pierce was outstanding from start to finish. When my AC went out during the worst heat spell of the year, I was honestly stressed and worried about finding someone who wouldn?t overcharge me or cut corners. From the moment I called Prolific Construction, Pierce was responsive, kind, and honest. He took the time to listen to what was going on before he even showed up, which already told me he cared about doing things thoroughly. When he arrived, he was right on time?no waiting around for a vague window. He got straight to work, explaining what he was checking and why in clear, simple terms that made me feel informed and empowered. I never once felt like I was being upsold on anything I didn?t need. Pierce is one of those rare professionals who values transparency, and that?s so refreshing. He found the problem quickly and had the parts ready to fix it on the spot. My house was cooling down before he even left the driveway. Prolific Construction will take care ofyou"

Heating Oil questions, answered by experts

Your HVAC manufacturer will give you instructions on how often you should service your system. Have your unit professionally serviced at least once a year when in doubt.

Heat pump systems are different because they provide heating and cooling solutions for your home. In this case, you should have it serviced at least twice a year.

While it's generally safe to stay in a home with a coolant leak if your home is properly ventilated, it's important to have a professional come out to assess the situation right away. You should evacuate your home if you notice any powerful fumes. Additionally, you should leave your home if you are experiencing headaches or dizziness.

It’s a better use of energy (and your money) NOT to run an ERV system all the time. Most experts recommend that you cycle your ERV system on and off throughout the year. However, the recommended advice could change based on your climate, the number of people in your home, the size and style of your home, and your heating and cooling system. Contact a local pro for more specific advice.

Regular inspections, loop flushing, and checking heat exchangers help extend system lifespan.

You need to service an HVAC system about twice per year, with a service including an inspection and basic maintenance. It’s best to schedule maintenance in the spring (after the furnace has been running and before the AC kicks on) and in the fall (after the AC worked hard all summer and before winter’s first chill arrives).

Regular HVAC services will keep the system working as efficiently as possible, saving you money on utilities and larger repairs. HVAC maintenance costs around $250 per visit, while bigger repairs from forgotten upkeep could cost thousands.
