"Dave came Monday evaluated my system for repair. I ask for information to replace instead because of a prescient leak and possible over stressed system. Jerry came Tuesday. I decided to place with a 2 1/2 ton unit 3 ton to better fit home needs. I had an air cleaning unit added. I also had mini split unit installed in garage. The four man crew came Wednesday installed very thing plus cleaned the ductwork. I am very pleased. The compressor unit much quieter than the old, hardly hear it. By the way this is all done with the Coronavirus social distance thing. Very one did extremely well."

"I had an emergency with a leaking water heater all over my basement. UGI did not get back to me after THREE attempts over two days of leaving my info with them. I decided to call a plumber instead. I believe I spoke with Jason, and he sent two of his team members out within 30 minutes, who checked out my situation and had a new water heater at my house 20 minutes later. Excellent service, friendly employees, and fair price. Highly recommend."

"We hired Greg to clean all our air ducts. (Sorry but cleaning of vents and air ducts wasnâ t a selection option so I chose closest to itâ ¦ installation of ductsâ ¦)I canâ  t begin to tell you how wonderful Greg and his assistant were to work with!!! Greg explained everything in detail to us!!! He answers all questions we had!! They were Meticulously clean with everything they did! There was not anything left undone!! If you need your air ducts cleaned which we all should do every few years I highly recommend using â  The Duct Proâ  sâ  !!! Their pricing was very inexpensive for all the time they spent here!! You will not be disappointed I can promise you that!!! Iâ  m a fussy person when it comes to my home and Glen and his assistant were absolutely wonderful!! I was a total ease with them working in sll our rooms!! We definitely will go to them again when itâ  s that time again!! Thank you Greg for being such a great person to work with!!!

"There was a snag at the beginning when they realized, after beginning to dig, that the AC unit was on top of the oil tank and they'd have to call someone in to move it before digging could continue. That delayed things a few days, but thereafter they did a good job of digging and were very careful with our trees. They also took care not to ruin the lawn with the machinery. The new tank and heater were quickly put in the basement with no problems."

"Provided excellent and on time service. Had my gas valve replaced, knew exactly what he was doing with no hesitation. The price he charged was fair, and exactly what was quoted. Requested he come back in spring to service my ac unit. Thank You Matt. Eric K."

"Our ac unit went out during a heat wave and I went to FB to get recommendations. Someone tagged Abraham and he messaged me asking questions to the service I needed. He was professional took his time to answer questions that I had. I really appreciated the time he took helping educating myself for the future. I will be using his services in the future as well as recommending his service to friends and family!"

"Our 17 year old central air conditioning went out at the start of a heat wave. I called Arctic Fire on a Sunday morning. Alex returned my call that afternoon and came out the next day around noon and quickly diagnosed the problem and had our old unit running in about half an hour. In conversation with Alex I discussed the possibility of replacing my 17 year old unit which had been a problem with 3 previous service calls in the last year. Within a day he sent me an estimate which was very competitive and reasonable. Within 2 weeks he replaced both my compressor and air handler in a very hot attic. His team was very professional and completed the job in about 5 hours. Even in very hot weather his team remained focused and answered all my questions and concerns. He did not leave until everything was running and operating correctly. I would highly recommend Alex and Arctic Fire for any of your HVAC needs."

Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

You should flush your AC drain line once every three months to keep it clear of debris and buildup. Keeping your AC drain line clean prevents clogs, backups, mold growth, and extra wear on your AC unit. If you live in a humid area or have several furry pets, up your cleaning schedule to once a month.

The $5,000 rule for HVAC systems helps homeowners decide whether to repair or replace an AC or furnace. Take the quote for the HVAC repair cost and multiply that by the age of the HVAC system. If the total is higher than $5,000, it’s more cost-effective to replace the system. If the total is lower than $5,000, consider repairing the system.

Whether an HVAC damper should be open or closed depends on the season, the zone it controls, and the temperature in that zone. In the summer, open upstairs dampers and close lower-level dampers to get the most efficient cooling possible. In the winter, do the opposite. Cool air will naturally flow down to lower levels, while warm air will rise. This keeps your system from working harder and helps prevent common AC problems.

You can buy a house with a 15-year-old HVAC system if you inspect the system for performance and budget for a replacement within the next three years. You can also negotiate the price with the sellers. Ask to look at the unit’s maintenance records and energy bills for the last two years to determine the shape of the HVAC system and its operating costs. Spend time in each room of the house to gauge if the HVAC keeps the home at a consistent temperature throughout.

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.
