"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!!"

"Speer Air just completed a complete overhaul of my existing HVAC including an upgrade of part of our system. The entire experience from initial sales visit to completion was great. Throughout the installation, the team was friendly, always available to answer a question, clean and respectful of my 3 young children (making sure nothing was left behind or any debris that could hurt them). System is operational and very satisfied. Highly recommend them."

"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

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.

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.

As a general rule, you should have your HVAC system professionally serviced at least once a year, though it's best to follow the manufacturer's specific recommendations. Many experts suggest twice-yearly maintenance: once in the spring for the cooling system and once in the fall for the heating system. This is especially recommended for older units, systems with recurring issues, or heat pumps that provide both heating and cooling. Regular service, which can cost between $100 and $550, keeps the system running efficiently, helps prevent costly future repairs, and saves money on utility bills.

A calculation method that your HVAC contractor will use to ensure your system does what it's supposed to is measuring duct output, or its CFM. The calculation requires knowing the cross-sectional area of the ductwork and determining the air speed past any given point within it.

The higher the BTU rating an air conditioner has, the more effective it can be at cooling your space. It will cool off your room faster in the short term. However, over the long term, if the unit has too many BTUs for the space, it can wear down the unit faster and shorten its life span.
