"MTS came to repair our AC system when it went out in the middle of the night. They were able to address our low refrigerant and flooded basin quickly and efficiently. Even though this is an incredibly busy time for HVAC techs, they were always responsive. When the issue in our system turned out to be a bigger problem, they were flexible with the work that had already been done. We'd be glad to work with MTS again in the future."

"Mike and his team at Premier are exceptional. I hired them to remove the old oil burner and window air conditioners and replace them with heat pump systems. I received quotes from several companies but Mike and Premier were the only ones who offered me options based on their extensive expertise. It was clear from the beginning that they were skilled and knowledgeable about all aspects of HVAC. Iâ m very pleased with their installation and subsequent support with respect to filter change etc."

"Jonathan from Kent County Mechanical did an outstanding job. He contacted me within minutes of my posting for service on Angi. We discussed the issue with my furnace, on the phone and set up a convenient time for him to come by. He diagnosed the problem and reviewed with me the best course of action. Within an hour he sent me a competitive quote. He worked around my schedule. He replaced my old furnace with a superior product; had me up and running in a timely manner. He did all the work himself, from start to finish, he registered my new furnace for warranty, and even provided a dozen filters. Also, he guarantees his work for one year. Jonathan goes above and beyond. I will definitely use Kent County Mechanical again and would highly recommend them for your heating and air conditioning needs."

"The entire central air conditioning job was completed under the allotted time. Peter and his team were extremely professional, knowledgeable, thorough, left no mess behind, and their price for this job was very reasonable. I was so impressed that I scheduled him to go out and replace my daughter/son-in-law's two oil fired furnaces in the same week. I would highly recommend All Phase to anyone looking to upgrade or replace their mechanicals. Great job Peter. Thank you for changing my outlook on contractors, who many times, never keep their promises, and provide sub-par work! Thank you!!"

Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

Yesh, heat pumps can easily cool homes when the weather reaches over 100 degrees Fahrenheit, just as powerful air conditioners can. The key is sizing the heat pump correctly for the size of your home and your climate. A local heat  pump professional can help you determine the right size and type for your home.

Indications of an HVAC problem include inconsistent heating or cooling throughout your home, unpredictable temperature changes, or inadequate air flow from vents. Abnormal sounds such as grinding, banging, or hissing, and unpleasant smells like mustiness or burning are also potential warning signs. A rise in energy costs without an increase in usage may also imply decreased efficiency. An HVAC system that frequently cycles on and off or cannot maintain a stable temperature is malfunctioning.

The cost to repair an air conditioner averages around $350 to $450, but the price can range from $100 to over $3,000. The final cost depends on the type of air conditioner, the extent of the damage, and the specific parts that need replacement. For example, repairing a window AC unit typically costs between $100 and $250, while central air conditioner repairs can range from $300 to $3,000. A simple fix like replacing a dirty filter might only cost $10 to $50, but a major issue like a broken compressor could cost around $2,000 or more, potentially making it more cost-effective to replace the entire system. Due to the need for specialty tools and handling of refrigerants, repairs more complex than changing a filter are best left to a professional.

The American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers, or ASHRAE, sets the standard guidelines for air changes per hour in homes and businesses. The International Residential Code, or IRC, also sets ACH requirements for residences and bases those requirements off of ASHRAE standards plus climate specifics related to your location.

On average, an AC unit lasts between 10 and 20 years. However, the specific lifespan depends on the type of unit, how often it's used, the local climate, and the quality of maintenance. Central AC units typically last 12 to 17 years, while window units have a shorter lifespan of 8 to 10 years. Portable AC units last about 5 to 10 years, and ductless mini-split systems can last up to 20 years. To extend the life of your AC unit, it's important to perform regular maintenance, such as replacing filters, cleaning coils, and scheduling annual professional tune-ups.
