"Purchased the Angie's deal coupon for $250 for full HVAC cleaning and all vents and returns.  During cleaning they found some black mold and recommended deep cleaning for additional $250.  They showed us pics of where the mold and other dirty stuff was and we decided to have them clean it since I doubt duct cleaning was ever performed for this house.  We were satisfied with the result.  The cleaner was prompt and explained everything in detail.  We were satisfied with the service.

"Our dryer vents from the center of the house to just under the second story eves. He did a great job of cleaning it from both ends, and adjusted the dryer hose to an optimal length and resealed it with tape. Also cleaned vents well. I am very particular about mechanics, handymen, and service people. Mack's is on the short list of people I will hire again. The serviceperson was polite and personable as well as very competent. And, he took pains not to track up the carpets. Mack's is a good choice. You'll be satisfied w the results."

"We had them Replaced furnace and air conditioning unit. It was installed about a year ago but they came out for a regular service about a month ago. the service was free, part of the contract. I have no complaints, it was all good. They were responsive. they were punctual. I have no problems, it was a good deal when I bought it, it's a good deal now. I don't have any issues with how the service went. i bought it through them and I have no regrets and everything was the same as I felt when I bought it. It was a good deal, I made the right choice. Anytime you buy a major system and it doesn't go right you have a problem. I'm a happy camper.1 worker took less than an hour to complete."

"Fully explained the process to me. Patiently listened to and answered all my questions. Did exactly what they said they would do. At the time they came out our a/c system was broken, still is when I write this review but a new one is scheduled to be put in next week. They explained that when we turned the new a/c system on that we should watch the filter for eat least the first month as some remaining debris left in the ducts might show in the filter and that if it looked dirty to us to call them up and they would come back out and run through the ducts again. My husband saw some of the ducts before they were cleaned and said they looked terrible. The gentlemen they sent out to do the work (two man team) said that the ducts were just over 70% blocked. Considering our ducts had not been cleaned in well over 15 years I wasn't surprised but REALLY impressed and pleased with how they came out after. They also cleaned out our dryer vent and bathroom vent fan area and my husband said they did a great job of that as well! There was barely any dirt left around the vents when they left. Maybe a bit here and there, I am a little picky about that, but nothing to really speak of. They vacuumed up the majority of it before they left so it was just the little bits they missed. Also with the way they sealed all the vents before they started the job my husband said there wasn’t much to speak of anyway. All in all very pleased and will consider having them back out again to keep the ducts clean (no 15 year gaps between cleanings anymore LOL). Will update review if necessary if we need them to come back out after the new a/c system is installed."

"Furnace was not operating because the company's automatic delivery system ran me out of oil.
Technician showed up promptly and got the furnace operating but could not get heat into the house. Had to reschedule to have zone valves replaced. Technician show up late and didn't have the required parts. Had to reschedule again.
The third technician showed up on time with all the correct parts and worked most of the day to get the system operating properly.
He was completely knowledgeable and very conciencious that everything was working correctly.

"Ang knew what I needed! I purchased a home knowing work would need to be complete in the futureâ ¦ future is now. Long story short, I have not had the best luck with my AC system from the beginning. I went through another company for my 1st furnace. Blue Dot. DO NOT DO THAT TO YOURSELF. It took Blue Dot 2 years to get my system to run properly. Fast forward to present. I encounter a very familiar problem with my 2nd system. I requested service through Ang & within 5 minutes JDL contacted me. The dispatch rate is unmatched! I approached the situation with an open mind, considering my last experience. When I tell you guys I made the right decision! Ire was the tech assigned to my repair. Very knowledgeable & respectful individual. I have gotten my system inspected in the past & heâ  s confirmed to the tee the issues that were presented to me when I originally bought my home. Ire went above & beyond to explaining & showing me the issues that are present. Ire broke down the process. The pros & cons of the options that I have. I appreciate the follow up call! They will be hearing from me again for sure! Thank you JDL & Ire for the great service I look forward to using your services ð  Â"

Central Vacuum Systems questions, answered by experts

It can be difficult to know right away if your central vacuum is clogged since it operates quietly compared to regular vacuums. However, there are a couple of signs you can look for. If you feel like it’s losing suction or isn’t cleaning effectively, then there’s likely a clog somewhere. 

Make sure you turn the vacuum on and feel the end of the hose handle. If you don’t feel any suction, then you’re dealing with a clog in the hose. You can see if the clog is further down in the system by attaching the hose to each outlet until you find the one with the least amount of suction.

Yes, installing a central vacuum system typically adds value to your home. The ease of use, longevity, and superior suction power of a central vacuum system can add up to $2,000 to your home’s value if you decide to sell. Potential buyers may consider the central vacuum a perk to purchasing your home.

The disadvantages associated with central vacuums start with cost. They are expensive to install, especially in existing homes, as retrofitting requires opening walls. The system's bulky hoses can also be inconvenient to maneuver and store compared to portable vacuums. Additionally, repairs may need professional service, adding to maintenance costs. Lastly, while powerful, they may be overkill for smaller homes or apartments, making the investment less practical for some households.

Maintaining your central vacuum cleaner is crucial to extending its lifespan. Ensuring the filter is cleaned or changed often is vital to ensuring clogs don’t impact your motor. In addition, inspecting motor brushes regularly and lubricating the engine when needed helps keep it in tip-top shape. Finally, cleaning the central vacuum hose of dirt and debris helps keep clogs at bay, especially if you’ve vacuumed something wet or sticky.

Common repairs for central vacuum cleaners include motor repair, electrical repair, and blocked filters. Central vacuum motor issues typically come with a burning smell and loss of suction. With these issues, you might need simple lubrication to keep it running smoothly, or for more extreme problems, you could need a motor replacement. 

Electrical problems or losing suction strength, might be reasons to swap out electrical components for new ones. However, a local central vacuum repair professional can tell you the best plan of action for your system.
