"My unit went out following a storm. Fearing lightning damage my insurance company told me to get three quotes. I was told by two other local companies that my unit needed to be replaced and could not be repaired. Turns out it was a simple fix that E.F. Martin wrote up for me to turn in to my insurance company and I was able to get the unit repaired without having to file a big claim which would make my premiums go up. I will definitely be using them in the future"

Clean install, he picked up after himself when finished and he even explained the functions of my new unit before leaving. I couldnâ t be happier! I would recommend him to anyone."

"The technicians were tops, the wonderful lady who deals with financing has been working diligently to assist me with straightening out a mess caused by an employee who did Not inform me that there was more to the pad document that was not fully displayed. It did not show nor did the employee explain that an outfit called Green Skies could place a lien on my home if I made no payment in 60 days. The finance company could place the lien on my car which is more valuable than the central heating & air condition unit."

Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

You can buy a new AC capacitor through most big-box home improvement stores, from an HVAC contractor, or from the manufacturer. Use the model number of your air conditioning unit to make sure you purchase the right part for your unit. Also, keep in mind that the cost of this type of part can vary significantly depending on who you purchase it from, so shop around to get the best price.

Yes, through thorough cleaning and inspection, optimizing functionality, and reducing energy use.

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.

Yes, ventless portable air conditioners exist, and not all standard portable air conditioners must be vented through a window.

Ventless portable units, often called evaporative coolers, do not have exhaust hoses. They use a water reservoir and a cooling pad to add moisture to the air, making it feel cooler. These units work best in dry climates because humid areas cannot absorb much additional moisture.

For standard portable air conditioners that do require venting, a window is not the only option; they can also be vented through a door, wall, or ceiling. However, it is essential to vent these units properly. Running a standard portable AC without venting it is counterproductive because it needs to expel heat to cool the room. Failing to do so will only increase the room's temperature.

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.
