Beltway Air Conditioning & Heating is locally owned & operated out of Hanover, MD. We are Lennox Premier Dealers & are BBB accredited with A+ ratings & reviews - We provide services & installations within a 50 mile radius of home base. Our team specializes in installing and servicing heating, cooling & ventilation equipment, whether it is a small A/C repair or a commercial rooftop - our team is trained to take care of all your HVAC needs! We bring extensive experience and professionalism to every home and commercial building. Our work reflects our passion! The Best Price + The Best Work = Your Best Value. We have uniformed & well-trained staff that under goes background checks and drug screening upon hire and randomly. All of our service professionals are also licensed to work in the state of Maryland.

"We are a bit disappointed by Beltway. While we do appreciate some of their efforts in trying to remedy the situation, the overall experience has been quite negative. Please see reasons below: 1. A brand new HVAC system that was installed on Wednesday completely failed by Saturday morning - which was less than 3 days of installation. This calls into question the quality of Beltway’s product or job, or both. 2. Weekend messenger centers have been extremely frustrating and unhelpful, basically saying that Beltway does not serve customers during non-business hours and that customers just have to deal with Beltway’s issues on their own. We called 4 times this weekend out of desperation. Yet each time they showed no sympathy on the fact that our baby has been suffering through the 80 to 90-degree heat trying to nap. 3. A weekend technician was finally sent on late Sunday afternoon (thanks to owner’s stepping in); however his timing messed up weekend plan as one of us had to stay home and completely missed our good friend’s son’s high school graduation party (now people at the party learned about Beltway…). 4. Unfortunately, this weekend technical was unable to solve the problem and decided to leave us with 2 portable cooling units, which, unfortunately, were extremely loud and inefficient in cooling down, so most of us weren’t able to sleep, just like the night before. Felt like all of their products that we’ve coped with in the past 5 days have been nothing but disappointing. 5. Finally, the full crew came on Monday. But their timing here again messed up the baby’s nap schedule - as the upstairs system was right next to the nursery. This is our first time hiring Beltway. The amount of inconvenience and frustration that they had created in the past 3 days was unbelievable. The experience has been quite negative from multiple aspects, calling into question not only their customer service ability/arrangement but also quality of their products and jobs. We don’t know if we can trust Beltway again or hire them again."

BlueStar Air Mechanical is a call away for your repair, maintenance and installation needs. We specialize in fixing and tuning up cooling, heating and plumbing systems for both residential homes and commercial establishments.

"I contacted Bluestar Air Mechanical for a second opinion after an appointment with Air One. I have a Carrier HVAC system, and the Air One technician recommended a complete system replacement, claiming the blower was bad, the furnace control board needed replacing, and that there were other issues. Since replacing the HVAC is a big investment, I wanted to get a second opinion. It was only after comparing the service from Bluestar that I realized Air One may have been pushing for a new system sale or lacked the expertise to properly diagnose and repair the actual problems. Isaac, the technician from Bluestar, spent about an hour thoroughly diagnosing and fixing the issues. He found burnt wiring in the furnace and discovered that the wrong capacitor had been incorrectly installed in the AC. Isaac replaced the burnt wiring in the furnace and the capacitor in the AC. After these repairs, my Carrier system was back up and running—without the need for a costly replacement. Bluestar, and Isaac in particular, demonstrated professionalism, expertise, and honesty. They focused on resolving the actual issues instead of pushing for an unnecessary system replacement. I highly recommend Bluestar for their reliable service and Isaac’s thorough and knowledgeable work."

When Glenmont Heating & Air Conditioning was founded 28 years ago, we had one goal in mind; providing area families, and businesses with solutions that fit their lifestyles and needs, as well as their wallets. If you have any questions about heating and air conditioning maintenance, a new HVAC system, or are looking into installing a more energy efficient system, Glenmont Heating and Air is the solution to your needs.

"Summary: Company charged me $1000+ for 2 separate service visits that did not fix my AC unit; technicians and Operations Manager are not truthful about work done; Operatiins Mngr will tell you find another HVAC company when you express dissatisfaction ….I contacted Glenmont Heating and Air Conditioning since my AC unit was not dispensing any cold air. Thermometer was set to 68° however the unit temperature was reading 77-80° (note this was the week of extreme heat wave). On 21Jun2024: Glenmont technician Roderick performed a service call. I spoke to him via phone after the call to which he told me he added refrigerant to the system. This did not fix the issue and the unit continued to not dispense cold air with the thermometer reaching 77-80° despite being set to 68°. I was charged $119 for this work. Operating Manager Tim Schindle is contradicting what the tech said and claims Roderick did not add any refrigerant. I again called Glenmont HVAC for a second service appointment. This technician claimed the coil needed to be cleaned. The second technician (Eric) then falsely reported on his report the unit temperature dropped to 68° when he left when I have photographic evidence showing the temperature in the high 70s. I waited about 24hrs as instructed for the thermostat to drop and it never did and the unit continued to not dispense cool air. I then called a supervisor (don’t recall name) who essentially told me due to the extreme temperatures everyone was experiencing HVAC issues and did not recommend any follow up service. I then had several back/forth emails with Operations manger Tim Schindler to notify him after 2 separate service visits, my air conditioning was not fixed. In the end he told me, and I quote “my system is old…we don’t know the maintenance history…it is best for both of us to find another HVAC company. He did however bill me $964 for the second service visit, which did not fix my issue. I ended up having to call another HVAC company who diagnosed the problem as a compression failure/ replaced the unit and now have cold air blowing. The second HVAC company did not understand why the 2nd technician from Glenmont Heating/Air Conditioning was changing coils and said this was not necessary to do. Second HVAC company showed me the reading of the compressor unit to which I could see no charge was registering, essentially the compressor was no longer working which was the root cause of my issue. In conclusion, I’m disappointed with Glenmont HVAC and feel they sent incompetent technicians who falsified their work. When I complained to the company and expressed my disappointment with their work (or lack there of) they told me to seek other HVAC company without fixing my AC unit but charged me $1000+. Poor business acumen and highly unethical company that needs to be held accountable for cheating customers and not performing quality work."

Central vacuum installation services FAQs

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.

The average cost for central vacuum cleaner repair is $310, though prices can range from $120 to $500. Your total cost will depend on the type of repair needed and the type of central vacuum you own.

A minor motor repair, like lubrication, only costs around $50. However, if you need to replace your motor, you’ll be looking at a much higher price tag with a total of $100 to $500. Other fixes, like electrical work, are charged by the hour, which ranges from $15 to $55 per hour.

A central vacuum system can last between 10 and 20 years if maintained properly. The frequency of use and amount of maintenance dictate its lifespan. These central systems last significantly longer than portable vacuum cleaners, which last 8 to 10 years on average. Keep your central vacuum system in good condition by checking the hose, wand, and attachments for clogs and emptying the debris bag regularly.

The average cost to hire an HVAC contractor is between $50 and $150 per hour if charging hourly. However, some HVAC contractors will charge a flat fee by the type of service they are performing—for example, an inspection can cost between $150 to $500. Keep in mind that emergency repairs—which are made after business hours or around major holidays—generally cost more than scheduled repairs.

Yes, most states require HVAC technicians to be certified, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed HVAC technician could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations. 

As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include: 

  • The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check

  • Required to have applicable state and local licenses

  • Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review

  • Paying to advertise their services

  • Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi

Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
