"After 18 years my AC stopped working. Decided to replace the furnace as well. John came out and provided me with a detailed estimate for a high efficiency furnace with standard air and a quote for high efficiency air as well. The price was very reasonable. My unit was installed within a week and a half. The guys who came out did a great clean up job and explained how to operate our new digital thermostat. It was great having air conditioning again last night!"

"The moment we met Jay, from J and T Heating and Cooling company for an estimate for a new Central Air/Central Heat unit, we knew we were in good hands. Jay explained in detailed his vision and made sure we were updated on a daily basis of their progress. The crew was professional and very efficient in making sure everything was done in a timely manner and properly installed. They surpass our expectations in the work they did. They did an amazing job of making everything looked neat like nothing was installed. Our home is cool and like new. I highly recommend this company for any heating or cooling installations."

Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

Yes, it is possible. An electrical fire can break out if the compressor has inadequate ventilation. When it overheats but doesn't have a proper thermal cutout, this can cause the motor to short-circuit and catch fire. This risk is exacerbated if flammable materials, like dust and fallen leaves, are clogging the unit. The compressor overheating won't start a fire by itself, but poor maintenance and installation can increase the risk once it hits its breaking point and short-circuits.

You may never need an AC recharge if there are no leaks. However, if your AC unit has a leak that cannot be patched appropriately, you’ll need an AC recharge every time the freon level drops low enough that it disrupts your system—this could be once every two to three years. It all depends on the size and frequency of the leak.

The standard HVAC warranty is around five years. Still, many brands offer an extension to 10 years if you register the product within a specific timeframe, typically 60 to 90 days post-purchase or HVAC installation. Over the past decade, warranty periods have substantially increased, shifting from 3-5 years in the 90s to the now-prevalent 10+ year warranties. Both warranty types cover parts failing due to manufacturer defects, incurring no additional costs. Some manufacturers provide extended warranties surpassing the usual 15- to 20-year window, though these often involve extra fees. 

If your AC unit isn’t cooling and you haven’t figured out why, there are a few good reasons to turn it off ASAP. The source of the issue, whether that be leaking refrigerant or a broken compressor, will worsen and cause more damage to the overall unit the longer the machine is allowed to run. When in doubt, shut it down until you or an AC pro can ensure everything is working properly.

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.
