"We use Laury for repair and maintenance of our heating and cooling units for our rental properties and each time we need something done, the staff at Laury never cease to provide quality service. The technicians are always knowledgeable, thorough, courteous and pleasant. We recently had an HVAC system installed in one of our units and the home is rather large and is over 100 years old and there was not a whole lot of empty space to work with. The guys at Laury were able to install the system and all of the duct work and components involved neatly with the age and make-up of the home in-mind. They were pleasant throughout the entire installation which took almost a week. They were always on time and always communicated the process with us. Laury is a trusted business with many years of experience behind them. Prices are also extremely reasonable given the cost of services right now. Warren you are the man!"
"The crew arrived on time, completed the job in 3 hours and then instructed us on thermostat use. They also put down cloths on the floor to avoid scratches. Very professional company."
"excellent service and the service people and sales person were all great that is why I hired them everything and everyone was excellent would use them again and again for any AC or heat problems they were great"
"Very responsive and knowledgeable. The team wore masks, gloves and shoe covers the entire time.. Gave a good deal for a new HVAC system with a warranty, would absolutely recommend."
"Ed & Cris arrived exactly at 1PM when they said. They hauled in a heavy suction vacuum and attached to both supply and then return lines. Showed me the dirt collected in the first stage of the cleaner. Both men worked hard and did an excellent job. Was not ready for the dust throughout the house but they did warn me of it. We just finished a dirty tile job so the vent cleaning was a natural first. This is my second Angie's list contractor and we are contented. "
"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."
"Willie and Weks Multiservice has been an amazing discovery for us. Dependable, reliable, affordable and extremely efficient. They have completely helped to give our home the look and comfort that we need."
"Depending on the configuration of your home this service can be veryyy expensive. Definitely get a quote prior so you can be prepared for the cost. This applies to whatever company you choose to perform your duct cleaning."
"Very professional. Quick response and took care of problem next day. The technicians are very knowledgeable and arrived at set appointment time. Would definitely recommend and will use in future HVAC needs."
"They called to confirm appointments, sent polite, competent and conscientious technicians to install my new HVAC unit. Price was comparable to others, but also got an included 10 yr parts and labor warranty included, making it a better deal than competitors. I will definitely use them again if needed. They did not leave until they were convinced that everything was functioning correctly. They also expertly installed and set up a WiFi thermostat [Emerson Sensi], which works on iPhones, iPads and Android devices. It works perfectly and even my wife can use it!"
Heating and Air Conditioning FAQs, answered by experts
No. Evaporator coils are designed to work with specific refrigerant types, and they are rated by what kinds of refrigerant they use. It’s indicated with an “R” code. It’s important to match your evaporator coil and refrigerant or your system will not work properly. An AC technician can tell you what type of refrigerant your system needs and what evaporator coils will work with it.
Yes, it is possible. An electrical fire can break out if the compressor has inadequate ventilation. When it overheats but doesn't have a proper thermal cutout, this can cause the motor to short-circuit and catch fire. This risk is exacerbated if flammable materials, like dust and fallen leaves, are clogging the unit. The compressor overheating won't start a fire by itself, but poor maintenance and installation can increase the risk once it hits its breaking point and short-circuits.
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.
To diagnose a bad HVAC or AC damper, assess the airflow from your vents. For a manual damper, close it, run your system, and check for airflow. If air is still coming through the vents, the damper is likely faulty and needs repair or replacement. For an automatic damper, turn on your HVAC system and monitor the airflow and room temperature. Signs of a problem include low airflow, a room that won't maintain its set temperature, or a drafty feeling. If you suspect a faulty automatic damper, you may need to hire a professional for repairs.
Common signs of insufficient return air include uneven temperatures, with some parts of your home feeling hotter or colder than others, and noticeable differences in air pressure between rooms. You might also observe that more air is blowing in rooms closer to the AC unit. Leaky air ducts can also be a related issue or clue.
