"Climate Mechanics worked hard to make sure we had both systems replaced on the same day and before the summer heat started. Nathan provided excellent service and communication throughout the whole process, from the first visit through the install. We are very happy with our systems and are confident knowing we are working with a local company that will be there for the service and maintenance of the units."

"My gas boiler stopped working. I wanted to find a local contractor and came across Whitestone Heating and Cooling. After some research I read their reviews which were all excellent. So I called and Oscar came to my home. He and his partner looked at it and thought the leak was caused by a problen that renders the heater unrepairable. After relighting the pilot light he made a slight adjustment to the valve which stopped the leak. He could have just told me the heater was cracked and useless just to have me buy a new one to make himself more money but he didn't which i was so very grateful. He's coming back to put a sleeve in the chimney. I recommend Oscar and Whitestone Heating and Cooling to anybody who needs help with their heating or cooling systems. Today its so hard to find a contractor who above all is honest and wont take a person to the cleaners. Rest assured you can trust this one. Thank you again, Oscar. God Bless."

"I was in the need to replace my old hvac system that was 25 years old. While doing research online for the best system, I found the most advice would be to find the local heating and AC contractors that are knowledgeable and trustworthy to do the installation. I was worried if I would be able to find one, but that thought was gone when Nate came out to give the free estimate. He spent more than an hour to explain to me the options, or any question I had in mind (& believe me, I had plenty). I told him that I'd rather have the extra vents/pipes running through the attic to hide away from the view. Without hesitation, he asked for the access to the attic and squeezed himself through the hot attic to find the possibility. Throughout the process, he was very informative and knowledgeable, and promptly responded to any additional questions I had without pressuring me into making an immediate decision. It means a lot having someone that actually provides you true advice and even offers to have you do your own research prior to hire their service. Nate talked highly toward the business's owner who always want to run his business in the most honest way. I had the 2nd quote from another competitive company, and even that one provided a 5 years option for financing with 0% interest, I still quickly decided to chose CM over it because of their honesty and their willing to go an extra mile to do the job. Their price is also very reasonable and competitive. On the day of the installation (7/5/2017), Nate & Collin arrived at 7:30AM, laying tarp over rugs and floor prior starting their work. Later, Nate informed me that there would be two more technicians (Ed P, Ed Q) to help getting the job done quicker. They were all polite, put on slipper covers for their shoes, and even asked for my permission prior to going upstairs for measurement of any room for tax-refund paper-works. One of the trim from the attic's door was masked down & broken previously & Ed initiated to fix it up all nice and workable without me asking for it. The installation went very smoothly, all the vents/pipes were hiden way in the attic, and all the work spaces were cleaned up after they were finished. Nate briefed me how to maintain the system as well before he left. I normally don't write review, but with the service they provided, I feel they deserve to be known and recognized. I highly recommend Climate Mechanics LLC. for their service and honesty. It's so refreshing to find people that care about their customers and their business. Hopefully, I won't have to worry my hvac system for a long, long time, but if there is a problem, I know I can count on them."

"Excellent HVAC and Solar installation services! They did a great job installing a new HVAC system for us a few years ago, so we sought their services again for Solar installation. They were very professional both times: provided pricing right away, technicians were polite, and job was completed in a thorough yet efficient manner. Jobs well done!"

Replacing an outdoor air conditioner with a high efficiency, consumer reported top rated American Standard unit.  Level, wired properly, and completed beyond code and required standards.  Thank goodness for a team that cares and loves what they do AND our customers.
Great technicians who have amazing skill and are just good humans too.

"Both Brian and Brian arrived at my home on time. They started with the air duct cleaning, and since my house has centralized heating and air conditioning, they started with the HVAC unit. In addition to their punctuality, I was impressed by the quality and speed of their work. For instance, even though the estimated time frame for the work was 5 hours, the actual length to do this work turned out to be less than 3 hours. In addition, they were very knowledgeable, thorough, helpful, and professional. I would highly consider hiring them for this type of work again."

Heating and Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

Some HVAC systems tend to use R410A refrigerant, although if you have an older model it may be using R22. R22 is banned due to its harmful environmental and health impacts, and it is a sign that your AC unit is old enough to consider a replacement and the significant efficiency gains that could come with it.

There are ways to detect a refrigerant leak with several different testing methods. However, most homeowners can figure out something’s wrong with their AC unit by noticing these common signs:

  • Ice forming on the evaporator coil

  • Water leaks near the AC unit

  • Frequent hissing sounds

  • Increased electric bills

  • Unit takes longer than usual to cool

  • Unit is blowing hot air

Your central A/C unit should be professionally serviced and inspected at least once a year to ensure it operates properly and efficiently. This is best done before the peak cooling season. A full-service inspection by a qualified pro will typically include checking safety components for issues like carbon monoxide leaks, verifying cooling components and coolant levels, and inspecting electrical parts like fuses and wiring. Regular servicing enhances efficiency, mitigates potential problems, and maintains optimal performance. Because AC systems contain hazardous refrigerant, professional handling is essential.

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.

It depends on the type of AC unit and the extent of the mold growth. For example, if you have a small amount of mold in your central air conditioner, it’s worth cleaning it to protect your HVAC system and your health. In situations like these, you can often remove the mold yourself in a couple of hours. On the other hand, if you have a portable AC unit with a severe mold problem, it makes more sense to buy a new one. On average, replacing a portable AC unit costs $100 to $500.
