"In both cases, Joyce technicians showed up as scheduled and installed units professionally. Joyce personnel were very polite and helpful. As a side note, my son has used Joyce for heating issues installed by another contractor and has recently had Joyce install a whole house airconditioning system which they are pleased with."

"I've used this company for a few years, beginning with an issue I had where I needed some emergency assistance with an a/c system leaking water into the house. They fixed the issue and it cost far less than I thought it would. I've also used them for a couple heating repairs, annual furnace cleaning and a/c maintenance. I am about to hire them again since the a/c system is dying and it will need replacement since it's more than 20 years old. I would highly recommend Unique Indoor Comfort to anyone in need of a good HVAC/Heating company."

Customers say: True professional

"John responded immediately with my request to have all my ducts and dryer vents cleaned. I also wanted to have my 3-bathroom fans and two ceiling fans done. John sent me a quote for the work that needed to be completed. I hired him, he immediately gave me several days that he had available to choose from to come and do the work. John arrived on time with Steve, they were great, friendly, professional, and very thorough. John explained everything and communicated with me on things that he found during the work. There are very few professionals around that care about their customers, John is one of them who cares, I mean that sincerely. If you are looking for a professional to do this work, I definitely recommend John and Steve. I am recommending John to anyone that I know who is looking to have this work done. Thank you, John and Steve, for everything you did to make our home cleaner."

"Gerry was running late for my appointment to clean and inspect two A/C units. He called to let me know . That's a real big plus.... He didn't waste my time. Once he arrived , the work was done quietly , quickly and at what I thought was a fair price. I will call him if I need service in the future."

"We have been a Palmer customer for 6 years. The front office and the technicians has always been great to work with. We have been using their AC and Heating Service Plan and on automatic oil and propane fill for years and we have never had an issue. My most recent experience was today for the AC Service Plan. The technician (David) was very polite, experienced, knowledgeable and respectful of our time and home. It’s always a great experience to have maintenance conducted in you home and have the technicians give you expert advice on your heating and AC system. Our AC system is well over 25 years old and still running strong thanks to Palmer. I continue to be impressed with Palmer and will remain a customer for the foreseeable future!"

Heating and Air Conditioning FAQs, answered by experts

There are two main reasons your furnace and AC are turning on at the same time. The first could be that you’re confusing the furnace with the blower. The blower is located in the furnace and will turn on to distribute cool air from the air conditioner through the ductwork in the home. This is normal. If the actual furnace is turning on at the same time as the AC and hot and cool air are coming into the home, it could be a result of incorrect writing to a new thermostat or new systems.

Swamp coolers cost approximately 50 percent less to install than central air conditioners and cost less to run. Operation costs depend on the size of the unit and home, your climate, utility rates in your area, and the system’s efficiency. Swamp coolers use 15 to 35 percent less power than air conditioners.

Yes. It's normal for the AC compressor to cycle on and off intermittently in dry mode as it maintains the desired humidity level. The compressor cycles to prevent over-dehumidification and to maintain a comfortable indoor environment. This cycling behavior ensures efficient operation and optimal humidity control, contributing to the overall effectiveness of the dry mode function in your AC system.

There are ways to detect a refrigerant leak with several different testing methods. However, most homeowners can figure out something’s wrong with their AC unit by noticing these common signs:

  • Ice forming on the evaporator coil

  • Water leaks near the AC unit

  • Frequent hissing sounds

  • Increased electric bills

  • Unit takes longer than usual to cool

  • Unit is blowing hot air

While personal preferences widely vary, sleep experts say the best temperature for sleeping is between 60 and 67 degrees Fahrenheit rather than 78. If you do choose to sleep with your AC unit tuned to 78 degrees, you might want to use only a sheet or light blanket rather than a comforter. You might also consider installing a window unit in your bedroom so that you can be cooler in bed without wasting energy cooling the whole house.
