"I have been with Climatemakers of Virginia no for several years and have NEVER been disappointed. An employee there Garry Gappy is our tech and goes above and beyond in his work. On so many occasions he could have told me things that needed fixed (that would cost extra) and I would have gladly paid it. But, he has always been perfectly honest and has saved us so much money. Last year I recommended him to a friend (for their Mother) and the friend arranged an appointment with him. He was able to help their A/C get working fast. I am very proud of this business and will stay with them for HVAC as long as I own a house! -Mark"

"They replaced my AC in my rental house. They showed up on time the first day and worked very hard for eight hours. They had another days work to complete the job. They called me the next morning and said they needed to go on a warranty call before starting second day at my home. They showed up day two at 11:30 am and worked hard until 8:30pm. The thermostat didnt work so installed a Honeywell thermostat in the house temporarily and said they would return the third day to replace Honeywell thermostat. Now its a three-day project because the workers were sent on a warranty call on the second day. Although everything worked out the third day I do question the business practices that they divert the workers to a warranty call after my landlord had prepaid 100 percent with a check for the project before they even showed up to replace my AC with a Carrier AC unit. The technicians were polite and professional, I just question their business practices thats why four star not five."

"From Catlin (who is awesome) that setup my service call & stayed in touch with us every step of the way from working with my home warranty to getting the AC/Heater Unit put in she is the best. This is something we were dealing with since Oct22 but M&J Services wasted no time - the service we received from M&J Services was outstanding. The techs Tray & Mike that came out to work on my Home AC/Heater Unit & was professional & showed concern about getting the job done & done right. If I could give M&J more then 5stars we would so letting others know how great this company is, is my thanks to M&J Services . . ."

"I am a property manager and Dailey and Sons has been a great resource for me. They have installed a few different new AC units for me, their prices coming in lower than the competition, and the work has always been done expertly! In turn, we also use them for all the regular maintenance of those units and I especially appreciate that they are able to send me helpful email reminders and then scheduling is a breeze from there. I have a lot to juggle and I love that they can take the HVAC stuff off my plate; I can highly recommend them."

Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

Evaporator coils in HVAC systems typically last around 10 to 15 years. However, their life span can be longer or shorter based on factors like the frequency of your HVAC system usage, whether regular maintenance is performed, and environmental conditions. Regular maintenance, such as HVAC system cleaning and coil inspection, can extend the durability and efficiency of your evaporator coil.

Yes, running your air conditioning unit too cold can cause condensation in the air ducts and built up moisture on the air filter, resulting in a breeding ground for mold and mildew. Mold and mildew growth can irritate those with respiratory issues, so it’s best to keep your AC running at a normal temperature.

There are several AC unit problems to troubleshoot, but luckily you can identify them by keeping a close eye on your system. Look out for the following signs that your AC needs repair:

  • Unusual noises during operation

  • AC unit blows warm air

  • AC unit doesn’t come on or turn off with temperature changes

  • Strange odors come through the vents

  • AC unit cycles on and off rapidly

  • Indoor air is more humid or less comfortable than usual

  • AC unit keeps tripping your breaker

  • Fan in the outdoor compressor doesn’t operate when the AC is on

Most HVAC service calls include diagnostic fees, which could include checking on a specific issue you’re experiencing or running through a routine inspection checklist. If you called for a particular problem, the service call will also include an estimate to fix the issue, including materials and labor. Depending on your HVAC technician and the service you requested, you might also get a general inspection of your system components to ensure everything is working as intended.

Most HVAC companies charge a flat service call fee of between $75 and $150, which includes traveling to your home and inspecting your system to find the underlying problem. Keep in mind that these prices only include diagnostics and the actual repairs will usually be billed separately. If you’re calling for routine service, the service call will be included in your inspection and tune-up, with the total sitting around $150. Your prices could be a little higher if you have a very large home with multiple condensers and air handlers, as inspections and servicing take longer.
