"I purchased a new Heating and AC system from AirPlus in mid-July 2020. The company was professional and responsive from the beginning. Danielle (sales) came out and provided 3 detailed quotes for systems with different efficiencies and features. She even provided a significant discount for payment by cash/check that beat the other companies’ bids. The installers arrived 1 week after Danielle and were courteous and thorough. They put down cloth from the 1st floor entry to the 3rd floor installation site so as to not mess up the house and always wore masks to prevent spread of COVID. They completed the entire installation in 6 hours, explained the system to me and provided all manuals. They even registered my system online with the manufacturer to qualify for the 10 year warranty, and AirPlus sent the registration confirmation to me via email the next day! The system is working well and keeping the top floors cool even with every day’s high in the mid-90s."

Since 1976, our local family of Alexandria HVAC technicians has provided the entire DMV area with fast and effective heating, cooling, indoor air quality, and water heater services backed by our personal 100% satisfaction guarantee. From installations and replacements to repairs and maintenance, we do whatever it takes to ensure that our neighbors have the reliable equipment they need to keep their homes at the perfect temperature. Plus, with free second opinions, same-day service, and a full supply of parts on-hand, we make it easy to get the solutions you need right away, with no delays. Call today to schedule your appointment – we always offer upfront pricing!

"I called A Action to help with a gas leak in my home. They came out before to help with HVAC and seemed trustworthy and helpful. The technician they sent was incompetent, unfriendly, and put myself and my home in danger. The gas company shut off the gas to my house and put a lock on the meter outside. The technician had no idea how to detect the leak and insisted that the gas had to be on to do it. I told him he was supposed to use an air compressor and I got a blank stare. He then proceeded to cut off the lock and turn the gas back on without my permission and without the permission of the gas company, putting me in danger. As the icing on the cake, when the gas company came back out the leak wasn't even fixed! For some reason I was charged over $800 for a gas bubble test and tightening of some fittings. I ended up needing an entire line replaced and the work to do that cost less. When I pointed out how this doesn't make sense and demanded an itemized bill, it took several day and they sent a bill with just one item "test fittings throughout house with bubbles to diagnose source of gas leaks" and this simple task cost $806. Never mind that the gas company already did that and marked each leak with a red tag... They refused to discuss it and I still don't have an itemized bill to justify the costs. They grossly overcharged me and are being dishonest about fixing it. I should also mention that the technician they sent over was dumb enough to put his boss on speakerphone around the house so I had to listen to them describe me as an "opportunity to take advantage of" while I was in a very stressful and dangerous situation. Do not recommend this company for anything."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Here’s what you can run with different wattages and types of generators:

Portable generator:

  • 2,000 watts can handle a large appliance like a freezer or refrigerator, plus a few smaller items like phones or computer chargers. 

  • 4,000 watts will keep two large appliances operating and a few smaller devices.

  • 8,000 watts should power most essential appliances and other devices, including a sump pump, well pump, or your dishwasher.

Partial to whole-house generator:

  • 20,000 watts and above will make it seem like your home’s power is still on.

No, you cannot plug a generator directly into a wall outlet in your home. Plugging in a generator without an interlocking kit, extension cord, or wall outlet receptacle is incredibly dangerous and can cause back-feeding—power from the generator back-feeds into utility lines. Also, if the main power comes back on while your generator is on, it could damage the generator and cause a house fire.

Yes, in some locations, it is required by the National Electric Code (NEC) to have a transfer switch installed for electrical emergencies. In addition to following electrical code, generator transfer switches ensure your home is fully protected during a power outage. By switching the power from the main breaker to the generator breaker, you can seamlessly operate your HVAC, lights, appliances, devices, and more during an emergency. 

In many cases, yes. There are models called dual-fuel generators and fuel switches, but only between certain types of fuel. For example, with the right setup you can convert a generator from natural gas to propane. Some allow switching between diesel and gasoline. There are even tri-fuel generators available in some cases, which adds a large layer of security if you are worried about fuel availability in times of crisis. Always check your generator capabilities and manual instructions before trying to switch fuels. Some generators can use another fuel but may need a fuel conversion kit to prep them first.

Most homeowners won't be able to claim a home generator as a tax write-off. However, a whole-house generator may be tax-deductible in certain situations depending on its purpose. For instance, if it's needed to power essential medical equipment, it may qualify as a medical expense deduction. Also, in some cases, businesses can deduct a generator as a business expense if it supports operations. Always consult a tax professional to determine eligibility based on your specific circumstances and the applicable IRS regulations.
