"My heating system wasn’t working properly, so I put the job at Angie’s list and Ray was the first one to call, very professional and he sent his tech (Isiah) right away and was able to remedy the issue in a timely manner. Very happy with the service with Ray’s HVAC and Isiah. Saving their contact details as my HVAC guy from now on."

"I spoke with Jorge about a gas leak coming from my furnace. He was so honest with me and recommended that I call the utility company to come fix it instead. PSEG came within an hour and fixed it for free. I had another company come out yesterday and they told me that I needed to change the gas value, so Jorge was able to save me hundreds of dollars. If I ever have any future HVAC issues, I will definitely trust Challenger to do the right thing and not scam me. Thank you so much!!"

"Zach did a great job fixing my central air: He arrived within one hour of my initial phonecall on a Saturday morning and recognized that the electrical voltage transformer of my aging HVAC system had burned out. He advised me that the transformer had to be replaced and there could be problems elsewhere in the system that triggered the transformer to burn out.  
While Zack prepared me for the possibility of additional repairs that might be necessary, it turned out that the system was restored by replacing a relatively inexpensive component.  
I have used other companies over the years and been unhappy with price and/or professionalism.  I don't like using one-man show companies and I had used a much larger company until they sent an unprofessional repair person to my home.
I am very pleased with this medium sized company: they coordinated the repair nicely.  I always felt I was talking with a person who knew what was going on and what needed to be done at each point and got to my home expeditiously,  There were no surprises: Despite the weird name, Pipeworks is now my "Go-to company" for HVAC matters."

Heating and Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

A home AC unit provides anywhere from one-half to five tons of cooling and requires approximately two to four pounds of refrigerant per ton of cooling. At approximately five to 10 minutes to fill one pound of refrigerant, a home that requires three tons of cooling will take about six to 12 pounds of refrigerant and approximately 30 minutes to two hours to completely recharge the unit.

To keep your air conditioner in good working condition, you should have it serviced by a professional at least once per year, ideally in the spring before the cooling season begins. If your AC unit is 10 years or older, consider servicing it twice a year (once in the spring and once in the fall) to catch potential problems early and help it reach its full lifespan. During a service visit, a technician will inspect, clean, and replace parts as needed. Regular maintenance helps avoid costly repairs. As a DIY task, you can also clean the evaporator coils annually.

The DOE is phasing out AC units with SEER ratings that fall below 14 or 15. The exact minimum rating depends on your region. In the northern United States, new ACs must have a minimum SEER rating of 14, though you can still buy and install older systems as long as they were compliant when they were manufactured. In the southern and southwestern United States, you cannot buy or install older air conditioners with lower SEER ratings. The minimum rating is between 14.5 and 15, depending on the power of the unit.
