"From the moment we inquired about services to job completion, we had a great experience working with Air Quality Concepts for our HVAC air duct and dryer vent cleaning. The owner Charles was incredibly prompt with communication and took the time to answer all our questions about the cleaning process prior to scheduling. We were so impressed by how personable, hard-working, thorough, and efficient our technicians Austin and Michael were when they cleaned our two HVAC systems. They were very attentive to the issues we have been having with our indoor air quality as we navigate mold remediation and health concerns. The company’s customer care was genuine and so appreciated, and the cost of services was very reasonable. We already feel more comfortable in our home knowing we are breathing cleaner air! I highly recommend Air Quality Concepts if you are looking to improve the air quality of your home!"

"This was an unusual situation. In talking to Phil, the owner; and Randy, the former owner, I was treated very fairly when I brought my situation to their attention. Though it took awhile to coordinate communications between them and myself (busy schedules), once they surveyed the situation, they were very responsive. Their supervisor for system installation, Perry Allen, reviewed my HVAC system and came up with a great solution to the problem. He returned with all the required supplies and worked hard to ensure I had the proper solution. Perry was absolutely terrific (his colleague too). He not only wanted to fix the problem, but to do it the best way.
I'm very pleased with Gand M Service Company and would highly recommend them for new HVAC systems as well as service contracts.

"Jeff came out at 11:00 at night to help my family sleep comfortably and not be miserable. He checked everything to find the problem and found it and repaired it. Without his kindness and honesty we would not be comfortable on our home now. Thank you Jeff. I recommend him above all for any hvac issues."

"Craig was knowledgeable, on-time, diagnosed the problem, explained my options and resolved the AC issue in a timely manner. We spoke for a few minutes after the work was completed and I found him to be a very kind and sincere person. I definitely recommend him and will call him in the future for HVAC maintenance."

Heating and Air Conditioning FAQs, answered by experts

NATE (North American Technician Excellence) certification is not legally required for HVAC technicians in most areas, but hiring a professional with this certification is highly recommended. NATE-certified technicians demonstrated their expertise and proficiency in different types of HVAC systems, offering assurance of quality service. It's a voluntary certification, yet it indicates a commitment to professionalism and ongoing training. Choosing a NATE-certified technician often means you're working with someone who is up-to-date on industry standards and best practices, which can lead to better service, energy efficiency, and long-term cost savings.

A non-maintained AC is more likely to perform poorly, increase your energy bills, and undergo more severe issues like breakage and water damage. That’s why DIY cleaning or professional maintenance is recommended annually. Otherwise, you might end up paying more in the end than you would for annual service. You can purchase cheap AC cleaning kits if you prefer going the DIY route.

You can buy a new AC capacitor through most big-box home improvement stores, from an HVAC contractor, or from the manufacturer. Use the model number of your air conditioning unit to make sure you purchase the right part for your unit. Also, keep in mind that the cost of this type of part can vary significantly depending on who you purchase it from, so shop around to get the best price.

No, it's not advisable to only replace the outside AC unit connected to your system. AC units are designed to work as a cohesive system, and older units work differently than newer units. Therefore, replacing only one component can lead to incompatibilities that affect the system’s performance. Replacing one component can void your warranty, costing you money for repairs.

No. HVAC, which stands for heating, ventilation, and air conditioning, includes all of the systems that work together to regulate a building’s temperature and humidity levels. In comparison, air conditioners only provide cooling. You can have an air conditioner as part of your HVAC system, but not all HVAC systems include air conditioners.
