"I contacted AR out of the blue about 9AM because my AC quit working overnight. My AC is up and running same day just a few hours later! I didnâ t think I would get same day service so I was very happy to be out f the Texas heat! Bruce went above and beyond and even washed the condenser because it was covered in webs. He explained what I should do to as preventative maintenance. Bruce was quick and took the time to explain the problem with the capacitor. Great company. Very reasonably priced. Highly Recommended and I hope I wonâ t need them again, but if I do, I will definitely hire AR again."

"The technician came out when he said he would be there. He was very professional. He identified the problem immediately and was able to fix it using a new part that he had with him. This got me up and running very quickly. He was also able to give me honest information on my air conditioning system. He helped me with a permanent solution and an upgraded system that is working 10 times better than what I had before. Thank you Thank you! Everything was exactly like it was promised. I have confidence in his work and integrity."

Heating and Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

Yes, it’s normal for an AC to drip water. In fact, it’s part of the dehumidifying process that takes place inside your AC unit as the condensation trickles down into the drain pan. However, it isn’t normal for your AC to sound like it’s running water or have large puddles around it. If that happens, you can try the solutions listed above or call an AC repair pro.

This depends on the extent of the freezing. Some ACs only need an hour or two to thaw out, but others may need a full day to completely unfreeze. Once you turn off the system to let it unfreeze, check it periodically to make sure the drain pan doesn’t overflow. When you turn the system back on, keep an eye on it to ensure it doesn’t start freezing again.

Yes, mini-split systems are generally less expensive to run than central air conditioners and are significantly more energy-efficient. Because mini-splits do not rely on ductwork, they avoid the energy loss associated with ducted systems, allowing cooled or heated air to reach its destination more efficiently. Additionally, they offer zoned control, meaning you can run units in individual rooms and turn them off in unoccupied areas. This capability can lead to energy savings of about 30% compared to a central air system, resulting in a lower monthly energy bill.

Your heating and cooling systems cost you the most on your electric bill and make up 50% of your bill on average. Your washing machine, dryer, oven, and stove contribute significantly to your electric bill as well. Lights, fans, and smaller electronics add up, but aren’t the biggest energy consumers. You can reduce your power usage by setting optimal temperatures on your thermostat and investing in energy-efficient appliances.

It’s not customary to tip HVAC technicians, and most professionals won’t expect it. However, it’s a nice way of showing your appreciation for the work they do, especially if they come out in inclement weather or on a weekend or holiday to fix an emergency issue if your heat or AC goes out in extreme temperatures. A good tip would be between 10% to 20% of the total bill, depending on how above and beyond the tech goes for your repair and on the total cost of your HVAC repair or service. For something like a routine tune-up or scheduled maintenance, tips aren’t expected.
