Shon helped us out with a door replacement, and a bit of plumbing work by the hot water heater area. He did a good job and would definitely use him again as one of our regular vendors in the southern area of DFW. Thank you, sir.

They're really nice and professional. They're very service-oriented. Once I had to wait about 45 minutes to get my oil changed so they took $10 off the cost just because I had to wait so long. I like them a lot. They seemed to last really well.

I like them and have used them in the past as well. They've done excellent work and are very detailed in their checks for the heating and A/C units. I always go with them and ask questions, which they are very good about explaining everything to me.

Heating Oil questions, answered by experts

DIY maintenance like filter cleaning is possible, but professional servicing ensures proper pressure, refrigerant levels, and loop performance.

You need to service an HVAC system about twice per year, with a service including an inspection and basic maintenance. It’s best to schedule maintenance in the spring (after the furnace has been running and before the AC kicks on) and in the fall (after the AC worked hard all summer and before winter’s first chill arrives).

Regular HVAC services will keep the system working as efficiently as possible, saving you money on utilities and larger repairs. HVAC maintenance costs around $250 per visit, while bigger repairs from forgotten upkeep could cost thousands.

Most maintenance checks take 2-5 hours, though extensive repairs may take longer.

An evaporator or swamp cooler is a common alternative for small spaces. These coolers blow moist air into a space to help cool it down. They are more affordable than misters and use much less water.
