"Excellent, professional service, explained everything very clearly. Air ducts were cleaned thoroughly. Service was prompt, in time. Highly recommended."
"We recently hired Clays to install our new AC and Heater and it was a great experience from the very start. The entire team was professional and worked really hard to get the new system up and running. The initial visit found our AC to be not working and they delivered portable coolers within minutes to cool the house down. Matt in sales did an excellent job of providing options and was patient to respond to our questions. Eddie and Anthony were a great team of installers .. very neat and great to work with. We highly recommend Clays for their excellent service and look forward to continued quality with their maintenance program."
"Service Pro - Tom came and performed work in a professional manner. Tom had good quality work ethics. He can come and service my heater and air conditioner in the future. Thank- you Tom for a job well done."
"Excellent service. The technicians that came to my home were very knowledgeable came in knew exactly what to do and got the job done in a reasonable amount of time. I have had my air ducts cleaned by other companies, but no one was as thorough as Pure Aire. Highly recommend."
"Heating Specialties workers arrived on time and were very professional. The crew leader reviewed all of the work with me so I understood everything about my new AC system and how it worked. The were very respectful of my property and cleaned every work area before leaving. They trained my on how to program the new theromstats and made sure the I knew how to override the system should I ever have an issue with the zoned AC. I will use them for all of my heating/air conditioning needs for this point on. This is a five star operation."
"I needed quick service and Pure Aire quoted me a rate over phone upon my request.....he held to that quote and they were out the next day. Everything went great!"
When first installed, flex ducts shouldn’t cause airflow problems in your home. However, because flex ducts aren’t the sturdiest and require extra support, they lose their durability over time and begin to sag, which can inhibit airflow down the road. Also, if your flex ducts aren’t tight enough, your HVAC could work twice as hard for the same air pressure. If you’re worried about the airflow in your home, a rigid duct may be your best bet.
Yes, HVAC zoning is generally considered worth the investment by both experts and homeowners. Zoned systems offer significant benefits in convenience, efficiency, and comfort by allowing you to set different temperatures for various rooms or 'zones' in your house. This ability to heat and cool only the spaces you're using leads to energy savings and lower utility bills. Zoned systems are especially effective in multi-level homes that experience temperature fluctuations, but even smaller homes can benefit from the ability to adjust temperatures more quickly. While the up-front installation cost can be high, many find it's a worthwhile long-term investment, particularly for those who plan to stay in their home for a while.
Set your house temperature between 55 and 85 degrees Fahrenheit while on vacation, depending on the season. If it’s winter, don’t go below 55 degrees. In the summer, the best AC temperature for energy savings is no higher than 85 degrees. You can save anywhere from 10% to 15% on your energy costs by adjusting the temperature while you’re away. If you have a smart thermostat, set up vacation modes for each season. On your way home, turn off vacation mode to allow the home to warm up or cool down before you arrive.
You should clean your air conditioner at least once per year, but you may need to clean your whole HVAC system (including the air ducts) more often. According to the National Air Duct Cleaners Association, you may need to clean them more frequently depending on factors like whether you smoke, have pets, or have allergies.
An AC inspection costs anywhere from $75 to $200, while a full HVAC system inspection that includes your furnace ranges from $200 to $450. While there's a cost to a home AC inspection, it can save you hundreds or thousands in the long run by catching problems, avoiding breaks, and saving you money on your utility bills.
