"Before I called Maynor, I had 4 other companies give me an hvac replacement quote. Maynor was the 5th. I was very impressed with Mike who gave me the estimate. He exactly gave me the picture of what HVAC I was going to get and gave me choices and time to think about it. I decided to go with Maynor because of their reputation. NATE certified installers. I was right. Junior and Biri came to install my trane hvac with both heating and cooling. I also had zoning done. Very professional. Came on time at 7:30 and finished around 4 pm as I had zoning done the same day. Very impressed with the work done and the efficiency is to say the least. The next day, Jaime (supervisor) came to my house and reassured me that everything is working great. I appreciate the reassurance as it is a big investment. They are open 24/7 and they listen to your needs. Competitive quote and honestly lower than everyone else considering the quality of work. My heating was in the attic and the work was outstanding (I took before and after pictures and inspected everything they did). The zoning works perfect. If you are looking for quality, efficient and superb work, go for Maynor. You will never go wrong. I had researched, read all reviews and got estimates from 4 other big hvac installers. I was not convinced until I met Mike who was honest, detailed and organized. The only one who gave me the specific model number of the hvac I was getting and educated me regarding the different kinds of hvacs. Also, he did not push me to go with other brands like all the other 4 companies did. Maynor took care of me and I know they will take care of you too."

"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.

"It was a Sunday, and my elderly parents were visiting, and the temperature outside was forecast to be in the 90s. The house was very hot, so I called at 7:30 AM, not thinking I would get through to anyone, but not too long after that, I got a phone call from their office, and before noon, the owner of the business (who was covering for his employees so they could take off the July 4th holiday), personally came to my house to fix our air conditioner. I will never call a different HVAC contractor again. Any time I need this kind of help, I only have one number to call. I strongly recommend R&C Service to anyone needing HVAC help."

Heating and Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

When deciding whether to repair or replace your air conditioner, several factors should be considered. It is generally worth repairing the unit if it's less than 10 years old, the warranty is still active, and you're dealing with a one-off issue. Most central AC units last about 15 years, while window units last 8 to 10 years. If your unit is approaching or has surpassed the 10-year mark and requires frequent or costly repairs (e.g., over $5,000), replacement is often the more sensible long-term investment. For older, inefficient, or out-of-warranty units experiencing multiple problems, replacing it is typically the better choice.

Yes, you should turn off your AC if it’s leaking. Turning off the system prevents more condensation from leaking and reduces strain on the unit if a damaged internal component or lack of refrigerant is the cause. While this may temporarily stop the leak, water can continue to drip from a thawing coil even after the system is off. As soon as you notice a leak, turn off the unit and investigate the source or call a professional for an inspection.

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.

In most cases, homeowners insurance will cover an AC replacement if it was damaged due to a covered peril—such as theft, fire, or storms. So, if your air conditioner needs replacing due to regular wear and tear, your insurance company probably won’t pay for a new one. However, home warranties often cover HVAC repairs and replacements.

If you have central air conditioning, it’s fine to run your AC all day if that’s what you want—as long as the AC unit is in good condition. But if your AC runs constantly when you don’t want it to, there may be a problem with your system (like the ones we’ve mentioned above). Window AC units and wall air conditioners aren’t as powerful as central AC, so you should only run those kinds of air conditioners for eight to 12 hours at a time.
