"These guys are the best! They taught me so much about my home HVAC system, both the pros and cons. They take so much pride in the results they provide it is almost as if they were the ones that installed the system in the first place even though they weren't although i wish they had because we definitely would not be having the issues we are having had these guys been in charge during the installation."

"Repairs were excellent and thorough "even well documented". The tech found units low on coolant. He identified and repaired multiple refrigerant leak points. I have dealt with many HVAC contractors over the years and Freedom Air Mechanical is one of the best. I highly recommend."

"I needed the ducts cleaned in our home. Gary went above and beyond. I would highly recommend them. He took the time to explain the whole process and did a thorough inspection of the ductwork when they noticed an issue with one of the ducts. they went above and beyond. I would highly recommend them for all your ductwork cleaning. If I could I would give them 10 stars."

"Estimator picked the wrong place to install it. Fortunately, the crew knew where it should go. It makes more sense for heat to rise and even I knew that. However I spent a lot of time making the appraiserâ s suggestion cleared for the job and it turned out to be a waste of my time."

"We bought an old house that needed some upgrades and Downeast was great from start to finish. I wanted some minisplits put in for better heating and ac, and they gave me different options that kept my budget and what I wanted in mind. They also did my service upgrade and were completely professional through the whole process. I ended up with some MRCOOL units that worked really well this winter. They've been great to work with."

Heating and Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

Deciding whether to replace just the AC coil or the entire system depends on the age of your unit and the overall cost. Replacing a coil is less expensive than a full system replacement, but it can still be a pricey repair. If your HVAC system is relatively new and still under warranty, or if the replacement cost is significantly lower than a new system, replacing the coil can be a worthwhile investment that restores efficiency and extends the unit's life. However, for older systems (nearing the end of their 10-15 year lifespan) or those with extensive damage, it is often more cost-effective to replace the entire AC unit. Mismatched coils in an older system can lead to inefficiency and future breakdowns, so a full replacement ensures optimal performance and avoids further costly repairs.

A new air conditioner capacitor will cost less than replacing the entire air conditioner system. While a capacitor itself will cost between $8 and $25, paying a professional to replace an AC capacitor will cost $180 on average. It’s not safe to replace an air conditioner capacitor on your own. 

If your central AC is not blowing cold air, you should try resetting the system. Many systems have a reset button. Make sure your thermostat is off, then turn off the circuit breaker that powers your AC. Hold the reset button for three to five seconds, then turn the circuit back on. Set your thermostat to cool and choose a temperature cooler than the room. Your system should turn on quickly.

It’s not customary to tip HVAC technicians, and most professionals won’t expect it. However, it’s a nice way of showing your appreciation for the work they do, especially if they come out in inclement weather or on a weekend or holiday to fix an emergency issue if your heat or AC goes out in extreme temperatures. A good tip would be between 10% to 20% of the total bill, depending on how above and beyond the tech goes for your repair and on the total cost of your HVAC repair or service. For something like a routine tune-up or scheduled maintenance, tips aren’t expected.

Because of the improved efficiency, ACs with higher SEER ratings tend to cool down your home better than models with a lower SEER. Higher-SEER AC units have a higher cooling capacity and a lower energy demand, meaning they may help cool your space faster without running up the electricity bill.
