"They arrived promptly, entered the HVAC housing area and accessed the situation. I was glad to learn that my furnace was working fine and the smell of an electrical fire was gone. They changed the filter and suggested that I call them if the smell returned."

"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.

While different HVAC contractors might offer higher or lower prices than competitors, the best time to replace your HVAC system is when customer demand is low. The beginning of summer and the beginning of winter bring the most demand for HVAC systems, so if you can, consider replacing your HVAC units in the early spring or fall. Many HVAC companies offer special off-season coupons that help lower the overall cost.

We don't charge by the season, our pricing remains the same throughout the year.

The cost to add Freon to an AC ranges from $100 to $350. It can increase up to $600 for large AC units requiring much more coolant. The cost also depends on how much refrigerant your unit needs. If only a small amount of Freon leaked out, your cost would be on the lower side. A complete replacement of all the required refrigerant can get expensive.

Yes, you can clean your air conditioner filter as a temporary fix for cleaning up dirt, but you’ll eventually need to replace it once the dust starts to accumulate. Use a vacuum with a hose attachment to clean your air filter at least once per year or more often if you have pets.

One of the fastest ways to unfreeze an AC unit is to turn off the unit and, if it’s warm outside, use the fan-only mode to help blow warmer air through the unit to speed up the defrosting process. While it may be tempting to use a hair dryer to defrost the air conditioner, that high heat can damage the coils.

After defrosting, if you can safely solve the issue with a fix like changing the filter, go ahead and do so. Otherwise, call in a pro before turning your AC back on.

While it's generally safe to stay in a home with a coolant leak if your home is properly ventilated, it's important to have a professional come out to assess the situation right away. You should evacuate your home if you notice any powerful fumes. Additionally, you should leave your home if you are experiencing headaches or dizziness.
