"I originally had a serviceman from Wooldridge Heating, Air, and Electric to evaluate our noisy, wobbling ceiling fan. It took a 12 ft. step ladder to reach, which I'm not able to do myself, anymore. Once it was determined that the motor was going bad in the fan, I asked them to return and replace it with a new one we bought. They two workers sent were prompt, polite, and very efficient. They had the old fan down and the new one in place in less than an hour. That included transferring a remote control receiver into the new fan canopy. They even took away the old defective fan. Very good service and at a very reasonable cost."

"I called Rogers out because my AC unit had started freezing over. Brandon came out for the initial visit and explained what was going and that it appeared I had a leak somewhere in the line. He was very professional while visiting and I asked him to give me options for replacement since my unit was older. He presented a few options and explained the pros/cons to each and broke down the pricing very clearly for me. I never felt like there was a push for any of the choices, or for replacement overall, simply options of what was available and would make the most sense for me. When the installers came out they were both also very professional and very kind with my young children who were curious. They were very cautious not to track anything inside of the house and cleaned up every piece of paper and strip of wire when the left. The install was clean, everything was explained very well to my wife and I as far as features and operation, and we were overall very happy with the entire experience. They are new in our area, but we will only be calling them in the future."

"Keith Thomas, owner of A1 Duct Cleaning Services, contacted me promptly (within 24 hours) after my inquiry about getting my home HVAC air duct system cleaned. Following a consultation, he started and satisfactorily completed the job in the next 36 hours. I was impressed with his prompt response to my inquiry and the quick turn around time of completion of the work. Keith was very professional and took the time to explain the logistics of the cleaning process. He did a very thorough job of cleaning dirt, dust and debris from my air ducts following some home renovations involving drywall work and plywood subfloor installation (sawdust & drywall dust). I feel confident that I won't be worried about breathing in dust particles now that the air ducts have been thoroughly cleaned. I highly recommend A1 Duct Cleaning Services."

"I had a great experience with Vortex Air. They came to my home and professionally installed a Bosch unit. The entire process was smooth, timely, and handled with a high level of professionalism. They showed up on time, completed the work efficiently, and were very cost-effective compared to other options I looked into. I highly recommend Vortex Air for anyone looking for reliable and professional HVAC services."

"Keith and Mark were extremely professional. They cleaned all the ductwork and vents. The ducts had not been cleaned since the unit was installed many years ago. The difference in air quality is amazing. They made sure everything was returned to normal and the work areas were cleaned when they finished. Would highly recommend."

Air Conditioning FAQs, answered by experts

Signs that your A/C system needs professional service include increased energy bills, uneven or poor cooling, loud or unusual noises, and frequent cycling.

While 72 degrees is a comfortable setting for many people, it’s likely not the most efficient temperature setting for your air conditioning unit. By pushing the temperature up to 75 or 78 degrees, you stand to save money on your energy bill. That said, these temperatures may be too warm to be comfortable for some people and are definitely too warm for most people to sleep comfortably.

The general rule of thumb for figuring out how much AC tonnage you need in your home is that for every 500 to 600 square feet of space you need to cool, you’ll need one ton of AC cooling power. So, a 1,000-square-foot home will need 2 tons of AC power. 

A one-stage air conditioner only has one setting, while a two-stage air conditioner has a high and low setting. A two-stage air conditioner costs between $500 and $2,500 more than a traditional air conditioner, but it has a longer lifespan and helps to increase energy efficiency. To make this decision, you should consider your energy needs and available budget.

Mold in your air conditioner isn't a good thing, as it can be harmful to your health. If the mold travels through the ductwork or is blown out of the A/C, you and your family can inhale mold spores and develop respiratory illnesses and other problems. Preventing mold from growing in the air conditioner will help protect your health.
