"Anthony was great. Professional, punctual, and responsive to questions. The job involves removing an old electronic interface module at the furnace, which is why it wasn’t something I could do myself. It also involved running a new thermostat wire, which he recommended a separate electrician perform (coordinated and contracted by All About Heating and Air), rather than having him do it. Doing it this way saved me several hundred dollars - which I definitely appreciate! I’ll be calling on them again if I need any other HVAC or plumbing services."

"We previously used another company for tuneups. When I called to ask them to send someone out because the air upstairs was cool, (on the warm side) but not cold, the receptionist said that's because it's a heat pump. I tried to explain to her that it had previously been cold but again she said it would just feel cool. I wasn't going to argue, their loss. I called Comfort Central after looking at the reviews on Angie's list. Kevin and his son came out and all I can say is, unbelievable service! We had the upstairs and downstairs units serviced. They were here approx 2.5 hours for the tuneup! They really took their time. Other company in and out in 15 minutes for the tuneups. Also, the unit upstairs has also never heated in the winter. The other company told us the upstairs unit was too small and it needed to be replaced. Kevin, the owner of Comfort Central said it was the right size. A LARGE loss of freon was the culprit for the cool air. Kevin said that sooner or later the upstairs outdoor unit would need replaced due to the amount of freon lost. Also, the capacitor needed replaced. There was no pressure, gave the option to refill with freon or look at a new unit. Told them they would have a decision the next day. Decided to put in freon for the time being and replace the capacitor at this time. The nicest tech came out, tested the unit again just to make sure and we were up and running in an hour or so. The upstairs is now colder than EVER before and the unit doesn't run constantly. This is an A+++ Company! Owner, technicians and office staff!!
** As a side note for women - Although my husband was here, they also talked to me. I didn't feel talked down to, or ignored/annoyed when I had questions. I also feel very comfortable that they would have given me the same price as a single woman, as they gave my husband. I know this is important as sometimes we don't know much about fixing mechanical items and we do get charged a higher price than men. Very courteous and trustworthy gentlemen!

"Four years ago I used a competitor air conditioning company to install an $10,000 unit - The kind with all the bells and whistles. The unit never worked correctly and I have about 15 to 20 repair tickets over the last 4 1/2 years. I had multiple companies try to fix the problem, but to no avail. Finally I called Frank at Sheer Comfort. They came out quickly and Frank was astonished at all the problems I have had with the unit. He asked if I could wait a day or two for results and I agreed. He acted on my behalf with the manufacture of the air conditioning unit was able to get me a brand-new unit (inside and out) for free. I heard him on the phone speaking with the manufacturer? He was actually arguing on my behalf! After a couple days he called me back with the good news. The next afternoon, his crew was here installing my brand-new unit. All I had to do was pay for the labor. Sheer Comfort's workers were prompt and courteous. The job was completed as scheduled and I am one happy customer!

"I interviewed four different contractors for my new heating/air conditioning installation. Kevin Schumann was head and shoulders above the competition in knowledge, professionalism and technical competence. Every part of the job was done with the highest standards and attention to detail. I know I made the right choice in hiring Comfort Central."

"Wade and Jacob were very professional and courteous. They were on time and explained everything they were doing and took before and after pictures of my entire duct work and air handler. Wade was also very kind and provided the dryer vent cleaning at no extra charge. Wade and Jacob accommodated us by maintaining the use of face masks and foot coverings not only respecting our home but also our health and safety at this time of Covid. We greatly appreciated his companyâ  s services and would highly recommend them."

Air Conditioning FAQs, answered by experts

A common HVAC rule is that for every 500 to 600 square feet of living space, you need 1 ton of heating or cooling capacity. Now that you know this common rule, you also need to know that it isn’t very accurate, and a dedicated pro wouldn’t use it for your home. If you talk to a pro who won’t or can’t perform a proper Manual J calculation, consider hiring someone more thorough.

Replacing both an AC and a furnace takes a full day on average, ranging from eight to 12 hours. The process involves removing the old units, installing the new ones, and ensuring all connections are properly made. If both systems are being replaced simultaneously, it can take longer than installing a furnace alone, so plan accordingly.

The DOE is phasing out AC units with SEER ratings that fall below 14 or 15. The exact minimum rating depends on your region. In the northern United States, new ACs must have a minimum SEER rating of 14, though you can still buy and install older systems as long as they were compliant when they were manufactured. In the southern and southwestern United States, you cannot buy or install older air conditioners with lower SEER ratings. The minimum rating is between 14.5 and 15, depending on the power of the unit.

Freon will go in the refrigerant lines near the back of your AC unit. Look for small ports with caps on a thin copper line—the Freon goes into those ports. You are best off hiring a licensed HVAC professional who can complete the job safely and correctly.

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.
