We have been serving customers in Maine for about 15 years. Previously, we were under the name Quietside Electric when we were located in Southwest Harbor and before that as Mountainside Electric when we were based out of Carrabassett Valley. We are a small operation and that gives us the ability to take on the small tasks that most of the larger size contractors do not want to take on. We will be closing for March and April to take our snowbird break during the spring mud season but we have availability for the rest of 2025 and the start of 2026.
"Yes, Ross was very efficient, answered the call immediately as my refrigerator was on the blow out. He came in from Bar Harbor. His price was fair!!!"

"Beware of shipping issues with this company. Ordered an ice maker installation kit on 10/10/25. Shipping was due no later than 10/20 according to company and FedEx tracking. FedEx tracking showed the package at their facility for 8 days without moving beginning on 10/15. Called FedEx 3 times. Each time they said they cannot find package and I have to contact shipper. Shipper has to make a claim, they will not mark it as lost. Called Appliance Parts Pros twice. Each time they say FedEx has to mark package lost before they will do anything. They also state they have to wait 14 days from them before doing anything because of their contract with FedEx. I don't care about their contract, I want what was ordered and paid for. Just going in circles with them and FedEX. If they shipped after 14 days it would be 22 days from that point, 32 days from the date of order if they shipped it that day.

Heating and Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts
In most cases, you should hire a professional to carry out services on your HVAC system, as the components are complicated, expensive, and potentially dangerous to work with. However, there are a few things you can do on your own to keep your HVAC system in good condition, including changing your filters every three months, keeping the area around your outdoor condenser clear of debris and plant growth, making sure your or intakes aren’t blocked, and keeping an eye out for increased energy bills, strange noises, and unusual odors related to your equipment.
Water buildup in your HVAC system is a cause for alarm. If water accumulates in your ductwork, it can drastically lower your home's air quality and create safety hazards. These risks include mold growth, damage to your HVAC system, and attracting pests that are seeking water into your ducts. Proper insulation and sealing of ducts can prevent this, and regular inspection and maintenance can address water damage problems before they become too severe.
Yes. Getting a whole-house dehumidifier can help you save money on energy bills. How? Your home automatically feels cooler when there’s less humidity in the air (“It’s the humidity that gets ya!” is such a true statement). This means that you won’t need to run your AC as much as you would if you had all that extra humidity in your home.
It depends on the type of AC unit and the extent of the mold growth. For example, if you have a small amount of mold in your central air conditioner, it’s worth cleaning it to protect your HVAC system and your health. In situations like these, you can often remove the mold yourself in a couple of hours. On the other hand, if you have a portable AC unit with a severe mold problem, it makes more sense to buy a new one. On average, replacing a portable AC unit costs $100 to $500.
HVAC replacement doesn't always include ductwork replacement. It depends on the condition of the existing ductwork. You can reuse your ducts if they are in good shape, adequately sized, and meet current standards. However, if the ducts are damaged, poorly designed, or not appropriately sized for the new system, they may need to be replaced or upgraded. HVAC contractors will assess the condition of the ductwork during the replacement process and recommend any necessary modifications or replacements to ensure the new HVAC system operates efficiently and distributes air effectively throughout your home.

From average costs to expert advice, get all the answers you need to get your job done.
Repairing ductwork in a crawl space is frustrating and difficult, which is reflected in the cost. Learn why limited access results in a premium cost beyond just a simple increase in labor hours.
If your air conditioning unit isn’t functioning properly, you might need an AC recharge. Our guide will detail what a typical AC recharge cost looks like.
When your HVAC system is acting up, it could be the blower motor to blame. See how much blower motor replacement costs and what impacts the price here.
