"After I posted my initial reviews, the owners of Air Temp Service Co. (Mario and Lori) reached out to me, and wanted to make it right. They are a family owned business, and proud of the work they do.We talked about the issues with our interactions with their company. After some additional research, I agree that the Nest Thermostat does need a common wire, and its beneficial that we had it installed. The other issues were due to the technician that was working with us at that time. That technician was removed from the company a few weeks after the work at my house was complete. The technician was responsible for the up charge on service, and pushing us to replace the CPU for our central AC (this should have been communicated as being the worst case scenario instead of the first step to fix the issue).The outside unit which was the main job I contracted Air Temp Service Co. for was installed cleanly and quickly. It was good work. They have also removed the technician who caused my family so much grief. I would say if you are a potential new customer they are worth giving a shot. They will take care of the job, and if you do have an issue they will make it right."

"Ali came over to our home when we called with a concern of the air flow in our central air conditioning system. He checked the return, the air flow, the temperature at all of the vents, and the entire system. It had more to do with the age of the system and gave us suggestions on how a different filter could increase the air flow. He did all of this and refused to take any money for his time. He is a true honest professional and someone that we would recommend to everyone."

"Excellent! The team worked diligently for 5 days to install a central air system in our old house with Plaster Walls. It was NOT easy, yet they did a fantastic job. They were able to add all ducts to the first floor with out any "chases" or enclosures requiring to be build. And almost none of our first floor lines up with our second floor closets, but they figured it out. Great time and fantastic service. Make sure you get Brandon and Sean. The work their butts off, and ensure your house stays clean (they cleaned up everything after every day - not an easy feat). Cannot say how happy am I with their work!"

"Our furnace failed on a rather cold day. We called Arctic Air Conditioning and they sent a technician the same morning. The system was ~30 year old, and we know we needed to replace. Once we confirmed that the furnace is not salvageable, they sent an advisor, Chris, to do the measurement and gave an estimate. Chris was able to arrange the installation in 2 days. The team came and completed the work as expected. The work was done in about 5 hours: removal of the old gas furnace & AC unit, installation of new units and new thermostat. They made sure we inspect their work, and showed us how the furnace works. The AC will need to be fully charged when the weather is warmer. A couple things to know is that the utility rebate is small and not worth taking into purchase decision. The Lennox thermostat works well, but the phone app does not work (rated extremely poorly on app store), so don't bother. We picked the better upgrade, which is reflected in the project cost."

"They definitely earned this 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review!! I can't say enough good things about VIP HVAC, they truly went above and beyond! Hector, the owner, came out with two of his crew members the day before the 4th of July to replace both my AC and furnace. They arrived right at 8am and worked nonstop until 6:30pm to make sure everything was done perfectly. Throughout the job, they found a few unexpected issues, but Hector and his team kept me informed the entire time and handled everything with professionalism and care. I was so impressed by their hard work, attention to detail, and clear communication. If you’re looking for a trustworthy and dedicated HVAC company, I highly recommend VIP HVAC. Hector and his crew are the real deal!"

"Angie’s list has Valairco listed as #1 in my area for home HVAC and my 30 year old York R-22 central ac has been leaking for a while. I had Valairco give me a quote to replace the air handler, and the outside compressor, condenser unit with a new unit that uses the new R410a Freon. The estimate seemed a bit high but I was surprised that I wasn’t offered any refund for whatever R-22 they reclaimed from my old system. I started entertaining other quotes when I received an e-mail from Valairco. I responded and explained my disappointment for not being offered something for the reclaimed R-22. I got a phone call shortly after that and was told if I could have it installed the following Friday they would reduce the price by $250.00. I agreed to have them install it. The day prior to installation a plumbing supply truck arrives in front of my home. The driver unloads all the parts for the job in the pouring down rain. I thought it was odd not to alert me since some items would not be helped by a good soaking. I put those inside. It turned out that the plumbing supply delivered a day earlier than instructed. The installers arrived on 7:00 am on Friday. They started disassembling the old system. Two more men from Valairco arrived. It was decided that it was easiest to remove the attic ladder to make room to lift the new air handler into place. As soon as it was up the two additional guys left and for the next 9 1/2 hours the two installers worked in the attic and outdoors to finish the installation. Overall I am pleased with the competence of the installers. I am also pleased with how well they cleaned everything up after they were finished. The new raceway looks better and the thermostat has Automatic Changeover and Adaptive Intelligent Recovery which are nice features. They also do the first year preventative maintenance at no additional cost. The price was exactly what they had quoted. No taxes or hidden costs were added. I was not pleased with a few things. Valairco is poor at communicating. I was told that it would be a two day install at time of quote but they completed it in one marathon day. The installers changed the orientation of the air handler to make it easier to service. It isn’t an issue but it would have been nice to be asked. What if I wanted it that way for storage? My attic ladder was reinstalled with 5 bolts when it is drilled for 6. Maybe one was missing before they started or maybe they lost one. Either way they left it with 5 and did not tell me. The installers relocated the hole where the lines exit the attic through the soffit and patched the unused area with a piece of galvanized steel because they didn’t have any white aluminum on their truck. Not only did it look bad but when you screw unlike metals together you start a corrosive process. I’ was not looking forward to seeing rust stains running down the side of my house. The attic routing of the copper and electric lines are hanging in midair and looks sloppy and amateur. Only one clamp holds it to a joist and it only has one screw. The rest of it hangs 6” below the joists for no reason and creates an unnecessary obstacle. Valairco did not know that I was displeased right away. After reading my initial review here, Richard Valenti, Valairco founder, personally calls me. I did not realize that they normally do their follow up a month after completion, in order to give the customer time to use the unit under a number of weather conditions. He sent Kevin back with the installers to make me happy. They fixed the soffit with a new piece of aluminum. They put anew bolt in the attic ladder. They put a strap hanger on the lines. Kevin offered to come back after cooling season to replace the lines if I am still not happy with them. I asked him if he would have done the installation the way his installers did and if he found the installation satisfactory. Kevin did not answer. It was obvious they returned to satisfy me whether my expectations were valid or not. I am pleased that they returned and I can say that customer satisfaction is important to them."

Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

The length of an AC cycle depends on the settings in your thermostat and the unit you have. Central AC doesn't constantly run at full blast the way that a window unit does. A cooling cycle in most homes is 15 to 20 minutes. Then, the unit stays off for seven to 10 minutes to circulate the cold air in the house before the cycle repeats. It should repeat two or three times per hour. A short cycle lasts less than 10 minutes and then turns off.

No. Your furnace does not run your air conditioner. Both units use the same system of ductwork to move conditioned air throughout your home, but you can have a furnace without having an air conditioner and vice versa. Furnaces are only for heating your home. You can buy a system that does both, however, like a split system or a heat pump (yes, heat pumps cool, too).

After a while, dust, dirt, and other debris accumulates on an AC unit's coils and filters, making it less efficient and spreading allergens and other air pollutants throughout your home. Cleaning your AC unit will keep it running efficiently, minimizing future breakdowns and improving your indoor air quality.

Absolutely! You can seriously improve the overall value of your home by maintaining high-quality, compatible systems for heating and cooling. Potential buyers will love not having to worry about getting a new HVAC unit for 15 to 20 years and will pay more for it. For maximum efficiency and cost savings, replacing the furnace and air conditioner at the same time, when possible, gives you (and potential future buyers) reliable comfort and modern convenience.

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.
