"Taylor came out the same day my AC stopped working. In this heat the thought of going all day was not pleasant. He was polite, vey professional, knew his business, and did above and beyond what we needed at the time. (Replaced our filter and gave us ideas how to eliminate the moisture in the attic). Even though we have a full inspection of our unit in September he checked all the pipes, pressures, and made sure when he left we would remain comfortable in our house. He was great, hope he comes back."
"Michael cleaned and repaired my central air unit. He quickly found the problem and knew exactly what to do. He listened carefully to my explanation of my situation and helped me set up a plan for the future. He was kind, friendly and professional. I couldn't have asked for better service."
"As far as I know they did great work. I could not watch everything since it involved climbing. After the installation it became difficult to get they to finish all the detail associated with the complete job, i.e., setting up phone access (per agreement) and repairing something unrelated to the AC project, though it was part of the overall agreement. Still, I would give them 5 stars with reservations. I am still waiting for them to complete the job."
"The technician was a rather young man, however, as he explained his work to me also outlining the costs involved it was evident to me that he was well educated in electrical circuits. His experience was also evident in how fast and neatly he completed his work. I would recommend this company to my friends."

"Green Quality Air provides excellent service. They did such a good job cleaning and repairing our fireplace that we also had them clean out our dryer vent that goes up two stories. Chris and Leslie are professional and thorough. Highly recommend!"
"They did great work, dependable, took the time to honestly discuss things with me. They went out of their way to help. Both the dad and the son, in fact the entire family. Very personable people, and would recommend them highly"
"He did a great job good pricing i need to do some adjustments but that is for me to finish up. I will hire him to come back for more jobs or more seasonal lighting that I need."
"Heinz provided us with a detailed, scaled, drawing of his plan for the project. After listening to our ideas he redrew the bench; we agreed on the style and he built what we wanted."
Heating and Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts
A power outage can damage your air conditioner, just like a power surge can damage any electrical device or appliance. In most cases, your circuit breaker or built-in surge protection on your AC unit protects your AC and just needs a reset. But in other cases, it might be that your AC compressor or capacitor was blown during the power surge. You’ll need to have an HVAC professional repair or replace any AC parts.
Evaporator coils in an HVAC system typically last between 10 and 15 years, which is roughly the same lifespan as the entire AC unit. The longevity of the coils can be affected by usage frequency, environmental conditions, and how well they are maintained. Regular maintenance, such as cleaning and inspections, can extend their durability. If the evaporator coil fails in an older air conditioner, it may be more cost-effective to replace the whole unit rather than just the coil.
In some cases, yes, portable air conditioners are worth buying. They’re a relatively affordable option for cooling small spaces. (On average, they cost between $100 and $500 per unit.) Plus, they’re easy to set up, and you can move them around to cool various parts of your home as needed. However, they aren’t the most efficient AC option, and they tend to be noisy.
Modern AC leak sealants work as a temporary measure to stop refrigerant leaks. You can purchase them at most home improvement stores or on online. When using an AC leak sealant, keep in mind that it’s only a temporary solution, so you’ll still need to hire a pro to install a replacement part as soon as possible.
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.
