"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."

"For over 20 years my wife and I used another A rated Angie’s List heating and air conditioning firm and we have given them good reviews in the past. Recently our 20+ year old heater started acting up. At times throughout the day or night the burner wouldn’t ignite and we would be without heat. After seven service calls and various parts at the cost of $700.00 our old service company could not repair the heater and the problem remained unresolved. So we decided to get estimates to replace our entire HVAC system mainly due to it’s age and this unsolved problem. Vaughan Heating and Air Conditioning was on our list of acceptable companies to speak with due to their Angie’s List A rating. We called Vaughan and they sent Tony Pellegrino to our home the next day. My wife and I were very impressed with Tony. He spent over an hour at our home scoping out our basement, configuring our new system and answering our questions. Later that day we received the Vaughan estimate that Tony sent by email. I called Tony and he spent another hour on the phone addressing my questions and concerns. We received the other competitor's estimates over the next two days. We accepted the Vaughan’s estimate which was $1,100.00 more then the lowest estimate and $2,500.00 less then the highest estimate we received. Our choice was based on our comfort level with Tony, the price of the job, the longevity of the company (established in 1937) and the quality of the heating and air conditioning units that Vaughan installs. We accepted the Vaughan estimate on Saturday evening and Tony scheduled our job that coming week on Tuesday (for the heater) and Thursday (for the air conditioner). The reason for the one day in between work was because they squeezed our job into an already full week of installations and we were really pleased that they did that for us. On Tuesday morning at 8:30am the installer’s, Marcus and Jeff were at our house ready to start the job. These guys were friendly, professional, extremely competent and also very neat and clean, covering our rugs, etc. Jeff and Marcus did and exceptional job installing our new HVAC system. It’s “state of the art”! My wife and I are extremely happy with the job Vaughan Heating & Air Conditioning did and we could not be more comfortable, then we are now, in our home. A great price, a great people and a great job! We highly recommend Vaughan Heating & Air Conditioning! Len & Lorraine Fedullo"

"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."

"Where do I start?! Let me just say, from beginning to end, it was 100% professional. These guys came on time, they did their job, they cleaned up, very professional, straightforward, hard-working, and much much more! They installed a water heater with no issues. The old water heater was picked up. I recommend them to do any HVAC for you! I will be calling them to install an air conditioner unit in the Spring. They were so kind, quiet and just did their job. I am so happy that I chose them amongst other HVAC quotes. Call them today! You will not be disappointed! Thank you guys for a job well done!! Now I can sleep at night, knowing my water heater will be working correctly!"

Heating and Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

It’s not customary to tip HVAC technicians, and most professionals won’t expect it. However, it’s a nice way of showing your appreciation for the work they do, especially if they come out in inclement weather or on a weekend or holiday to fix an emergency issue if your heat or AC goes out in extreme temperatures. A good tip would be between 10% to 20% of the total bill, depending on how above and beyond the tech goes for your repair and on the total cost of your HVAC repair or service. For something like a routine tune-up or scheduled maintenance, tips aren’t expected.

Dirty filters are almost always the cause of poor airflow, so they should be regularly cleaned and then replaced as needed. The fan blades can also get dirty, so they should be cleaned when the unit is turned off. Make sure that the outdoor area around the back of the unit is unobstructed. Trees, shrubs, trash, and other objects could be too close to your unit.

A new air conditioner capacitor will cost less than replacing the entire air conditioner system. While a capacitor itself will cost between $8 and $25, paying a professional to replace an AC capacitor will cost $180 on average. It’s not safe to replace an air conditioner capacitor on your own. 

An undersized whole-house generator has the potential to overheat and shut down when you try to run a central AC system. This scenario can not only damage the whole-house generator, but can also trip your home’s breakers or cause electrical damage. To avoid this situation, hire a local generator installer to correctly size your whole-house generator.

Yes, mini split systems cool equally as well as central air. While a central system circulates air throughout the entire home at the same temperature, a mini split system allows each room to be cooled or heated at different temperatures based on your own preferences. Hire a HVAC professional to determine which type of system is best for your home.
