"They definitely earned this 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review!! I can't say enough good things about VIP HVAC, they truly went above and beyond! Hector, the owner, came out with two of his crew members the day before the 4th of July to replace both my AC and furnace. They arrived right at 8am and worked nonstop until 6:30pm to make sure everything was done perfectly. Throughout the job, they found a few unexpected issues, but Hector and his team kept me informed the entire time and handled everything with professionalism and care. I was so impressed by their hard work, attention to detail, and clear communication. If you’re looking for a trustworthy and dedicated HVAC company, I highly recommend VIP HVAC. Hector and his crew are the real deal!"

"I spoke with Jorge about a gas leak coming from my furnace. He was so honest with me and recommended that I call the utility company to come fix it instead. PSEG came within an hour and fixed it for free. I had another company come out yesterday and they told me that I needed to change the gas value, so Jorge was able to save me hundreds of dollars. If I ever have any future HVAC issues, I will definitely trust Challenger to do the right thing and not scam me. Thank you so much!!"

"My wife and I moved into our home about two years ago and inherited a very old hot water heater (12+ years old) and boiler (25+ years old).  They were working fine, but they were on their last legs and could go at any time.  More importantly, 2 of the 3 upstairs bedrooms were always cold, little heat reached those rooms through the baseboard radiators, and we wanted to see what could be done to get it fixed.  This was very important to us since one of those rooms was going to be used as a nursery the following month.
I spoke to Dave on the phone who set up an appointment for the next day to investigate.  He assessed the water heater and boiler, letting me know that they were currently working fine, explained how it worked, and that the boiler was missing a safety feature that is now required in newly installed boilers (I think it was something like an expansion tank?).  He explained it very well, I could tell he knew what he was talking about.  To solve the cold bedrooms riddle, Dave walked around the basement, looking at the exposed pipes and where they were headed.  Then he went to the rooms on the first floor, noting the locations of the radiators.  Finally he went to the 2nd floor to see where the rooms were and the radiator locations.  He found that the rooms were connected just fine, but that they were on the end of a long loop of rooms being heated.  The 2 bedrooms were located on the same zone as the entire first floor, and as a result, were not being heated effectively.  In addition, the thermostat was on the first floor, meaning once the desired temperature was reached on the first floor, the system shut down, leaving the 2nd floor in the cold.  To fix, he recommended adding a third zone by reconnecting the 2nd floor pipes in the basement directly to the boiler and connecting a new 2nd floor thermostat to the boiler so that it would continue working until the 2nd floor rooms were warm.
It should be pointed out that the original intent of my service call was not to get a new boiler, but to fix the heating problem on my 2nd floor.  The 3rd zone solution complicated things with my older boiler, which would have had to be retrofitted with a bigger opening to accommodate the 3 zones.  Dave advised that rather than spending money on those enhancements, which would go to waste if and when my boiler dies, that I may have wanted to consider getting a new boiler.
My wife and I agreed to the work and we scheduled an appointment a few weeks later to get the work completed.  On Day 1, they replaced the water heater and did some work on the 2nd floor piping in the basement.  On Day 2, they replaced the boiler and connected all 3 zones, including the new 3rd zone.  The crew was excellent, putting down drop cloths around the house where they were walking around to drain the radiators and cleaning up behind them.  When the work was completed, Dave walked me around and showed me what they did and gave me a tutorial of how the new thermostat worked.  Everything worked perfectly and the upstairs bedrooms are now nice and warm!
Dave came back a few days later and dropped off the invoice, warranty, and completed rebate details (all I had to do was fill in my address and mail it out).  He also asked how things were going and answered some questions for me, including how I could adjust temperatures in the room using the radiators.
All in all, I think I got my money's worth and would recommend Dawson to my friends and family for any heating work.

Heating and Air Conditioning FAQs, answered by experts

While 72 degrees is a comfortable setting for many people, it’s likely not the most efficient temperature setting for your air conditioning unit. By pushing the temperature up to 75 or 78 degrees, you stand to save money on your energy bill. That said, these temperatures may be too warm to be comfortable for some people and are definitely too warm for most people to sleep comfortably.

Yes, a dirty evaporator coil can freeze up. Dirty evaporator coils can’t absorb or transfer heat properly. The dirt and grime restrict airflow, which is needed to move heat throughout the system properly. Your air conditioning unit could freeze over, or it can cause your heat pump to freeze.

While an air conditioner can temporarily run with a dirty filter, it is not recommended as it will not work efficiently. A dirty filter forces the system to work harder to circulate cool air, leading to reduced airflow, increased wear and tear, and higher energy bills. This added strain can cause the air conditioner to overheat or fail prematurely. Furthermore, a clogged filter may allow dust and dirt to accumulate in your ductwork, negatively impacting air quality. It is more cost-effective to clean or replace filters regularly than to pay higher utility bills and risk needing to replace the entire AC unit.

The simplest indicator is how long it’s been since your last tune-up. You should schedule an annual AC tune-up each spring. Beyond that, there are multiple signs that your AC needs a quick check by a professional. These issues include higher-than-average energy bills, decreased air flow from vents, higher indoor temperatures, and an air conditioning unit that stays on all the time or frequently turns on and off.

Don’t run your AC with a wet filter. It can cause your AC to work too hard, which will run up your utility bill and cause extra wear and tear on the system. You could also spread moisture and mold throughout your house. Turn off the AC, remove the wet filter, and check for cracks or clogs. Fix the problem (with a pro’s help, if you need it), and put a dry filter in place before you turn the system back on.
