"We needed the 32 year-old ductwork replaced in our second story due to heavy infiltration of dust, pollen and bits of fiberglass insulation from the unfinished attic portion from deteriorated ducts. Given our pretty severe allergies to tree and grass pollen, the second story rooms were mostly unusable and even the first floor a problem, not as bad but still unpleasant. Even our cat was suffering. Drew, the sales manager, gave the whole system a very thorough review. He measured our rooms and discovered the system was oversized for the square footage, which not only put strain on the blowers but made the sound at the registers so loud it was difficult to speak on the phone in my office. He recommended an additional register in the hallway between the rooms. Glad he did. The thermostat is located in the hallway which also looks out over a large room with a cathedral ceiling. The new outlet has helped normalize the temperature and the AC/Heat run much less now and give more even temperatures. He also recommended a full house filter on the blower and an in-duct LED purification device that treats mold, dander, pollen and dust. Again, glad he did. They have made a big difference very fast, especially in pretty dramatically reducing dust and improving our respiratory systems. We had the same devices installed on our downstairs unit. We also had a detached first floor duct. In an above and beyond move, Drew went into the crawl space to check it out and temporarily repaired the duct until Maynor could replace it. The installation team, Jeff and Seth, were the superheroes of the project. There were two ducts so tight under the roof they looked as if they couldn't be replaced without tearing out part of the ceiling. One of those ducts had been shredded all the way through by an animal. It came out right over my desk and had been raining pollen, etc. down on me for some time. Seth managed to squeeze into the tight spots and replace the ducts all the way to the boxes. Both guys were very professional and personable and did a great job as unobtrusively as possible in a single day. Also very proud of the company and obviously happy to work there. Maynor sounds like a very customer and employee focused company."

"Carolina Comfort Air installed a new HVAC system in my home, including the replacement of all of the original ductwork in the attic.  Consultant Jose was great.  He recommended a split duct system to allows the downstairs and upstairs to operate on separate thermostats.  He was able to schedule the installation in a timely manner.  The installation crew - Adrian, KJ, Joe and Aaron - were courteous, professional, knowledgeable and considerate and did a great job of cleaning up behind themselves at the end of each day.  The office staff were very responsive when I called with questions.  Carolina Comfort Air came highly recommended by a friend, and they did not disappoint.  I am very pleased with the installation and customer service.  I definitely recommend."

"We purchased the deal on a weekend and they called on Monday to schedule the time for the next week. The crew arrived on time and inspected our duct work. It was determined that the duct work on the first floor had active mold growth and because of the type of piping (flexible plastic) the first floor ducts were too dirty to clean properly and needed to be replaced. That was scheduled for the next week. They also cleaned the 2nd floor ducts and sanitized the whole system. We were given credit for what we had already paid. We had an issue with no air coming out of one of the vents and the owner came out and fixed it (had come loose)."

"I set up an appointment for a quote from Cape Fear based on a recommendation from a neighbor, and Justin came on time (he actually called and asked if it would be OK if he came early). He was easy to work with, seemed very knowledgeable, and very thorough as he looked at my current setup and discussed the various options for replacement. I liked some of the recommendations he made as far as adjusting some of the duct routing to ease air flow. I decided to have him quote a 2-ton Trane XL16c packaged AC / Gas Furnace unit and XL16c hybrid (AC and gas furnace / heat pump), which was brand new at the time - it wasn't even in their system yet. When I was provided with a quote, the paper listed the 3-ton unit since the 2-ton unit was so new, but Justin assured me that the price was for the 2-ton unit. I received another quote for the same unit from a different company, and the price was significantly lower. So, I went back to Justin and asked him to double check the price. He did confirm that the price listed on my quote was for a 3-ton unit and provided a new number for the 2-ton unit, but I was left with a bad feeling over what would have happened if I hadn't received a competitive quote and questioned them. Also, the other company I dealt with talked with the Trane rep, and stated while the XL16C gas pack was available in a 2-ton unit, the hybrid unit (with gas furnace and heat pump) was not available in a 2-ton unit. This quote process was at the end of December, and they offered an extra $500 off if we would install before the end of the year. Would they have taken the money for a 3-ton unit and only delivered a 2-ton unit, or would they have realized the error when I went to pay and said 'we quoted you the wrong price'? If I ordered the hybrid unit and paid for a 2-ton unit, what would have been delivered? These could have been honest mistakes or not - I really have no way of knowing. In the end, I didn't feel comfortable with the way the quote process went, so I decided to go with another vendor."

Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

After a while, dust, dirt, and other debris accumulates on an AC unit's coils and filters, making it less efficient and spreading allergens and other air pollutants throughout your home. Cleaning your AC unit will keep it running efficiently, minimizing future breakdowns and improving your indoor air quality.

A frozen coil can cause permanent damage to your HVAC system and lead to costly repairs if not fixed. It can cause the unit to overheat and also cause the compressor to fail. It’s vital to turn the unit off if the coil is frozen and address the issue as soon as possible. 

Most experts recommend getting three to five HVAC quotes from licensed, insured, reputable local heating and cooling companies. Getting multiple detailed HVAC quotes (but not too many) lets you compare the equipment, services, and prices of several contractors without being overwhelmed by options. It can also let you see if one contractor’s prices are much higher or lower than the others and give you a chance to ask for clarification. That way, you can weed out any contractors who aren’t providing quality services or materials and find the company that best meets your budget, quality requirements, and long-term goals.

You should only run your dehumidifier in warmer months, such as spring and summer, to get the best performance out of your system. The air gets drier when temperatures drop in the winter months, creating less of a need for a dehumidifier. However, when to run a dehumidifier will depend on your local climate.

Replacing an HVAC system does not always include new ductwork. The decision depends on the condition of your existing ducts. If they are in good shape, correctly sized for the new unit, and meet current standards, they can often be reused. However, if the ducts are damaged, poorly designed, or improperly sized, they will likely need to be replaced or upgraded to ensure the new system operates efficiently. An HVAC contractor will assess your ductwork and recommend the best course of action. Typically, ductwork is purchased separately, and a full replacement will add to the overall project cost.
