"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."

"Diagnosis and repair were straightforward and the talented Mike, who has done other great work for us on our ACs, had a replacement pump in his truck. Swapped over in under an hour. Cost of the repair was quite high, mainly due to very high price they charged for the pump. A Taco pump that I could buy for $175 was priced on this repair at more than $500. I get that it was an urgent situation and I’m happy to pay reasonably for the response but that mark-up bothered me. I called the office, had a long talk with the owner; sadly, she offered no consideration at all. Yes, it’s hard to find and keep skilled techs, but now seems that most HVAC firms have a business model like a car dealer’s service dept, far more corporate, less flexible or customer-considerate."

"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."

"Duct Kings came to clean out a dryer vent. They were very quick with their work and did a great job. They even documented the job with before and after pictures and videos which we appreciated. I would highly recommend if you're looking for a fast and reliable duct company"

"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

If your central AC is not blowing cold air, you should try resetting the system. Many systems have a reset button. Make sure your thermostat is off, then turn off the circuit breaker that powers your AC. Hold the reset button for three to five seconds, then turn the circuit back on. Set your thermostat to cool and choose a temperature cooler than the room. Your system should turn on quickly.

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.

On average, replacing an AC compressor costs between $800 and $2,300, but it could cost as much as $2,800. There are a few factors that impact the price of a compressor replacement, including the type and size of the compressor, as well as the type of HVAC system and local labor rates.

If the air coming from your AC unit is cool but never quite cold, there are a few reasons this might be happening. For starters, it could signal that your refrigerant levels are low. If there are no other indications of this particular issue, like hissing noises or frozen refrigerant lines, anything from dirty filters to damaged condenser or evaporator coils could be responsible for the problem.

Ceiling fans can be a great way to cool your home without the expensive utility bill of running an air conditioner. Plus, ceiling fans can sometimes run in both directions, pushing hot air down in winter and pulling cold air up in summer. With that said, air conditioning might be the only thing that helps if you live in a very warm climate.
