"I would like everyone needing A/C repair to use AR Condition and Repair. Cory worked me in for repairs on my A/C Central air quickly. Cory helped me understand everything. Josh was sent to my home to get my A/C working in 106 degree heat index. I need a whole unit which but fixed it till I could get some air in this overwhelming heat. Josh was so helpful and too explained everything so I could understand. I will be getting a new unit from them in the next few days. Prices are very reasonable. Thank you Cory and Josh for helping me not be so miserable till I get my unit. Once again I highly recommend this company!"

"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

In most cases, you should hire a professional to carry out services on your HVAC system, as the components are complicated, expensive, and potentially dangerous to work with. However, there are a few things you can do on your own to keep your HVAC system in good condition, including changing your filters every three months, keeping the area around your outdoor condenser clear of debris and plant growth, making sure your or intakes aren’t blocked, and keeping an eye out for increased energy bills, strange noises, and unusual odors related to your equipment.

Yes, mini-split or ductless AC systems add value to a home and do not devalue it. They are an attractive feature for potential buyers, especially in older homes without existing ductwork, as they provide a practical air conditioning solution without the significant expense and hassle of installing traditional ducts. Ductless systems also eliminate issues associated with conventional ductwork, such as noise and the potential for pests. Furthermore, homeowners value energy-efficient solutions, and mini-splits offer high efficiency for both heating and cooling, plus zoned temperature control. This leads to lower energy consumption and reduced electric bills, which is a major selling point.

A common HVAC rule is that for every 500 to 600 square feet of living space, you need 1 ton of heating or cooling capacity. Now that you know this common rule, you also need to know that it isn’t very accurate, and a dedicated pro wouldn’t use it for your home. If you talk to a pro who won’t or can’t perform a proper Manual J calculation, consider hiring someone more thorough.

To reduce AC startup power for a whole-house generator, install a soft start kit or hard start capacitor, which lowers the initial surge by gradually ramping up the compressor. Using a smart load manager can also help by staggering startup loads, preventing a system overload and future costly repairs.

While most air conditioners can last between 10 and 20 years, they will only last this long (or longer) if properly taken care of. Routine maintenance and inspections help keep your AC unit running in tip-top shape but understanding what factors will decrease its lifespan will also help keep your unit running cool.

Some things that shorten your AC’s lifespan include:

  • Extreme outdoor conditions, like high humidity or extensive salt spray 

  • Improper installation

  • Extended run times, either by the unit being too small or the thermostat setting too low

  • Not performing required maintenance
