A-1 United Heating, Air & Electrical was established in 1975. In 1981, Ray Barr, Tom Brummett and Stan Gregory purchased the company with the ambition to become one of the leading heating and air conditioning companies in Omaha. After starting business with only one install technician and one service technician, their dream has been realized after growing into a company with a staff of over 100 people and branching out into all areas of the HVAC business. In 2007 Tom Brummett, retired after 26 years of committed service. He helped A-1 United become the company it is today. In May of 2007, A-1 United implemented an Employee Stock Ownership Plan, (ESOP). In essence, Ray Barr and Stan Gregory turned over the ownership of the company to our dedicated and loyal employees. In 2009 we made the decision to branch out into the electrical contracting business. This has turned out to be a good decision. We now have a staff of 12 full time electricians to serve you. Over the past 33 years, A-1 United has become one of the largest Lennox dealers in the Midwest. We owe this to you, all of our devoted customers without whom, our company would not be where it is today. We perform services on all makes and models of equipment but we are proud to specialize in Lennox HVAC products.

"DO NOT RECOMEND! HAD MORE TECHS OUT THAN I CAN REMEMBER, NEVER FIXED THE ISSUE. HAD ANOTHER NOISE AND IT WAS A BAD COMPRESSOR. NEW BUILD, WE MOVED IN APRIL 2024. THE PART IS COVERED, BUT NOW SINCE IT IS OUTSIDE OF BUILDER WARRANTY, WE HAVE TO PAY ALMOST $700 IN LABOR ON WHAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN CAUGHT ALL THE PREVIOUS TIMES. COMPRESSOR WAS NEVER GREASED, BONE DRY. MOST RECENT TECH IT MOST LIKELY CAME FROM THE FACTORY THAT WAY. WHY WASN'T THIS CHECKED ON ALL THE PREVIOUS CALLS?!? THE DAY OF REPAIR I WAS TOLD TO NOT PAY ANYTHING AS SHE WAS CHECKING HISTORY AND WOULD CALL ME BACK. THAT NEVER HAPPENED AND THEN TODAY I RECEIVE A PAST DUE NOTICE VIA EMAIL THREATENING LAWSUITS, LIENS, AND INTEREST CHARGES IF NOT PAID. SEE ATTACHED FOR THE EMAIL PIC."

"Shawn was wonderful. He was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. He was very responsive and professional in terms of communication and he was also efficient, completing the entire job in a few days. I would hire him again in a second and definitely would recommend that others contact him for renovations and house projects. He is easy to work with and great at what he does."

"The person performing the service had to make several trips because one of the "new" parts turned out to be faulty. I found both Complete Protection and their local repair contractor to be both very responsive and totally professional at every stage of the repair process."

"I needed to replace my home's original deck. A friend recommended Jim Pull with Premier Exteriors, so I had Jim out for a consultation and estimate. I'll say right away that Jim has a kind and gentle personality, and he struck me as being very honest. Once we settled on a design, Jim sent me a quote with digital drawings and a fair price. Once we gave the go-ahead, Jim took it from there. They kept me updated as to the status of the city permits, as Omaha was backlogged. The crew performed their work in a timely and professional fashion. They were very respectful, personable, dedicated, and their workmanship is top notch, as is the quality of the materials. I am very pleased with my larger, beautiful, and SOLID new deck! I'm also extremely pleased with Jim and the crew at Premier Exteriors! I would definitely hire them again for future projects. I couldn't be more pleased or impressed with this company."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Before hiring an electrician, check out the contractor’s official website, read reviews, and look them up on your local Department of Labor’s website. If you’re hiring for a complex job, pay special attention to their level of expertise. Also, call up pros directly to ask about their insurance status, specifically liability insurance, and request customer references.

You don’t need to be an electrician to change a light bulb. You also don’t have to be an electrician to replace a light fixture with another compatible one. But, if you are installing a light fixture for the first time, it’s worth hiring a licensed professional for the job.

While a handyperson may charge a bit less, a qualified professional can make sure everything is up to code and working exactly as it should be. This is especially true for more complicated lighting projects.

How many string lights can be on one outlet depends on a number of varying factors, including the total wattage of your circuit, the type of lights, the energy needs of the lights, and cord specifications. It’s better to play it safe here to protect your circuit, so figure out the max wattage of your circuit, compare that to the lights, and move on from there. Generally speaking, LED string lights require less energy than incandescent bulbs, translating to a higher number of lights per circuit. 

If your outlet is testing fine but keeps tripping, that’s a sign your GFCI outlet is working, but there’s a problem somewhere else. Try plugging in different devices and see if the outlet keeps tripping. If it’s not the appliance that’s causing the issue, it could be a problem in your wiring. Faulty wiring can be a source of electrical fires and other serious problems. We recommend arranging an inspection by an electrician if an outlet appears to be working but keeps tripping.

It wouldn’t be abnormal to view all wiring as simply wiring, but wiring has different gauges and can handle different loads. When you’re wiring for 240V, you need wire that is rated at least 240V, but honestly it’s better to spend a little more and just buy 300V wiring. This ensures a margin of safety in case the wiring gets overloaded.
