"Showed up, tested, diagnosed, filled the system with coolant, pointed out general maintenance issues that had not been addressed like dirty/clogged filters etc. Took credit card for payment. Excellent service! Even managed to send the tech out the day after we reached out to them."

"Tomas and his crew did a full double replacement of two zone HVAC system. Everything was well explained before and during the entire installation. They showed up right on time, were courteous and pleasant to speak with and finished the entire replacement and professional startup in just 1 day. I highly recommend contracting Vortex air for your hvac needs. You will get efficient professional service at a price that beats the large contractors in the central Virginia area."

"This was the best service I have ever received from a HVAC company. The guy worked on my furnace for over an hour until he fixed it. It ended up costing for the service call only due parts not being added to the furnace. He was very personable and did a great service for me. I will always use this company for my needs in the future."

"I have had Brian from Casper replace 2 heat pumps total with one at my home and one at a rental property over the past 4 yrs and both have lowered my monthly bills significantly. When renters reported a problem with the heating this winter, Brian responded and fixed the problem immediately at minimal cost. I am happy and my renters are happy with Brians promptness, expertise and courtesy."

Heating and Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

Yes, it’s best to turn off an AC unit that’s blowing hot air to prevent system damage and avoid expensive energy bills. If you let the AC continue running, it will put more strain on the condenser coil and compressor. Plus, if the AC is blowing hot air because of a refrigerant leak, it can also lead to a frozen evaporator coil.

Signs that your air conditioner capacitor is bad or failing include a range of symptoms. The AC unit may not turn on at all, or it might struggle to start before shutting down randomly or in the middle of a cooling cycle. You might hear a humming or banging noise when it attempts to start, or the compressor might hum without the unit actually running. Other indicators include a smell or smoke coming from the unit, the blower circulating room-temperature air instead of cold air, and an unexpected increase in your energy bills.

Here’s the cost formula to find out how much it’ll cost you to run a window air conditioner in your home:  Watts * (hours used) / 1,000 * (Local kWh) = daily cost of running a window unit. If you need help calculating the cost of running your window AC unit, consult an AC repair or installation pro for an accurate estimate.

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. 

AC leaks are common, and an HVAC pro can usually fix them. You may be able to resolve some leaks on your own, but a professional HVAC technician should handle most AC leak repair. If left ignored, an AC leak could cause serious damage to your system or leave you with expensive water damage, usually leading to more costly repairs or replacements.
