"The inspection went extremely well! The HVAC technician, Mike B., was extremely professional, arriving within the set 2 hour timeframe, even calling me within 10 mins of his arrival. I had a list of questions for the technician and the technician happily answered all of my questions along with showing me how to change the filter on our system. The technician explained the services that Grove Heating and Cooling offers without any pressure to purchase future services. We liked the service so much that we signed up for our next service with Grove Heating and Cooling, receiving a great discount off the flat rete price of $125."

"My outside HVAC unit was no longer working, however, everything on the inside of the house was. Isac W. was able to diagnose and solve the problem in a short amount of time. Isac was courteous and the price of the service was as expected. I would definitely recommend this business for your HVAC needs."

"I hired Best Air Quality and Restoration to clean my dryer vent. I was very pleased with their level of professionalism. All my questions were answered without hesitation. The price was fair and affordable. Dennis, the technician notified me of his expected arrival time. He was very nice and pleasant. Dennis explained what the job entailed and completed the job within an hour. There was no excess lint or debris in my home to clean. I would recommend Best Air Quality and Restoration to others to experience for themselves. I intend to use other Best Air Quality and Restoration services again in the near future."

"This is a top shelf business. From booking to service, the experience was fantastic and I am beyond impressed. I am really impressed by most companies and rarely take the time to write a review. I scheduled duct cleaning crew to arrive first that day. Two nice gentleman showed up on time for the scheduled appointment. After doing the walk through and seeing my concerns they noted that my system was not very dirty. They offered to clean anyway but said that it was not entirely necessary. My big concern are the bathroom exhaust fans but as that was not part of the service they would only be cleaning the hvac ducts and dryer vent. They could have lied to me and told me that my vents were a mess and the service needed to be done... But they did not. It is rare these days to find a business that reputable. Combine quality and a good value- it's unheard of. HydroClean office person Sarah called to make sure I really wanted to skip the service. She was extremely nice and didn't try to push me into the cleaning. Great customer service. The two nice guys left without my husband and I spending a cent. No cancellation fees or hassles. I scheduled carpet cleaning for later that same day. When the carpet service guy called at 10:30 and said they had an opening to get my service done earlier - I was pleased. Christian and Andrew arrived as the duct cleaners were leaving. These two young men were extremely polite and professional. They got right to work and did an amazing job. They didn't cut corners or try to up-sell me. I've had other companies try to sell you additional services and clean around furniture; not these guys. Again- top notch staff. I'm summary I would recommend Hydro Clean. They have a customer for life in me.

"I hired 3M after considering several other sources for furnace repair. In reviewing other proposals I found excessive charges. 3M called me and when I told him about my problem he asked if he could come and look at it. He arrived as scheduled, was professional, courteous, and thorough. After checking out the furnace he gave me an estimate that was half of my other bids. He obtained the parts, and in working on rhe system found another problem with a transformer. He obtained the part and after completing the repair said that the new parts had cost more than his estimate, but since he had missed the problem initially, he would not charge me for the extra labor. I immediately realized I was dealing with an honest person ... a rarity these days. 3M is now my permanent source for all my HVAC needs. There is no better source available than 3M."

"I hired them to come and install an exhaust fan as well as a thermostat. After realizing my hvac system also had a humidifier function that was incompatible with the thermostat I bought they were able to properly install my exhaust fan (I bought the wrong kind as well) and hung a chandelier under two hours. Very efficient and fair pricing."

Heating and Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

Yes. It's not just AC filters that get dirty. Ducts can accumulate dust and dirt quickly. Insects and animals can also get into duct systems, creating many problems. Dirt build-up and unwanted guests can constrict the airflow and cause rooms not to cool evenly. You might also see higher energy bills because they're not working as efficiently.

No. Evaporator coils are designed to work with specific refrigerant types, and they are rated by what kinds of refrigerant they use. It’s indicated with an “R” code. It’s important to match your evaporator coil and refrigerant or your system will not work properly. An AC technician can tell you what type of refrigerant your system needs and what evaporator coils will work with it.

You might notice that your air conditioner isn’t running as effectively as it once did. Specifically, your AC unit could take longer to cool your home, or it might struggle to remove humidity from the air. Higher utility bills and hissing sounds coming out of your AC could also indicate a leak.

If the air coming from your AC unit is cool but never quite cold, there are a few reasons this might be happening. For starters, it could signal that your refrigerant levels are low. If there are no other indications of this particular issue, like hissing noises or frozen refrigerant lines, anything from dirty filters to damaged condenser or evaporator coils could be responsible for the problem.

Yes. It's normal for the AC compressor to cycle on and off intermittently in dry mode as it maintains the desired humidity level. The compressor cycles to prevent over-dehumidification and to maintain a comfortable indoor environment. This cycling behavior ensures efficient operation and optimal humidity control, contributing to the overall effectiveness of the dry mode function in your AC system.
