"Great - Troy and Hunter were very professional. They cleaned up after themselves which was a big deal. This was not an easy install. The Water Softener that was installed was top quality. We have to work through a service contract for the upkeep and maintenance which was surprisingly very expensive. Like I said though - this was not your average Water Softener System and the original plumber had no clue about Water Softeners when the house was built. Wisler is unique in our area as they cover both HVAC and Plumbing. Previously we were working with 3 different companies to handle our HVAC and Plumbing needs. Reducing it to one does have value. Softener + New Filter to Front End Sediment + Services to Install was $7700. Maintenance contract I am told is $500 which was a bit of a shock but we are working through that."

"After years of freezing winters, we signed up for a membership with this company—a decision that changed everything. When Ryan, our HVAC technician, arrived for a routine check, he immediately noticed something wrong. The thermostat read 90 degrees, but the house was 50. For five years, I lived without heat in that house. I called company after company, but no one could fix it. Eventually, I lost hope and convinced myself the old house was beyond repair. Unable to face another winter, I moved to another city. But Ryan didn't give up. He went to the crawlspace and within five minutes found what no one had discovered in five years: the wiring was wrong, and the heating cable had never been plugged in. For the first time ever, warmth flowed through my vents. My home was finally warm. I'm incredibly grateful to this company for employing skilled, dedicated technicians like Ryan. I only wish I'd found them sooner—it would have saved me years of suffering and a move I never wanted to make."

Hello my name's Lewis haddox and I am a Handy man servicing the roanoke , salem va and surrounding areas.If you’re looking for someone who actually enjoys fixing the leaky faucet, diagnosing the weird noise from the furnace, and leaving a workspace cleaner than they found it—let’s talk.With over 10 years of hands-on handyman experience, I’ve seen it all. From sagging drywall and broken drawer slides to full property turnovers, I bring a can-do attitude and a toolbag full of solutions. But what really sets me apart is my HVAC certification. While most handymen have to call in a specialist, I’m the one who stays to fix the AC or troubleshoot the furnace. That saves you time, money.I take real pride in every job big or small and working for myself allows me to do even the smallest jobs most larger services wont.So next time you need help and want someone respectful, knowledgeable and will be there when scheduled till jobs completed give me a call.Always free estimates hope I can help.

Heating and Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

Because of the improved efficiency, ACs with higher SEER ratings tend to cool down your home better than models with a lower SEER. Higher-SEER AC units have a higher cooling capacity and a lower energy demand, meaning they may help cool your space faster without running up the electricity bill.

Yes, ventless portable air conditioners exist, and not all standard portable air conditioners must be vented through a window.

Ventless portable units, often called evaporative coolers, do not have exhaust hoses. They use a water reservoir and a cooling pad to add moisture to the air, making it feel cooler. These units work best in dry climates because humid areas cannot absorb much additional moisture.

For standard portable air conditioners that do require venting, a window is not the only option; they can also be vented through a door, wall, or ceiling. However, it is essential to vent these units properly. Running a standard portable AC without venting it is counterproductive because it needs to expel heat to cool the room. Failing to do so will only increase the room's temperature.

HVAC companies may charge an hourly rate or a flat fee. Hourly rates typically range from $100 to $250 per hour, with an average around $175. Some contractors charge a flat fee for specific services, such as an inspection, which can cost between $150 and $500. The total cost of an HVAC service is influenced by several factors, including: the urgency of the service (emergency repairs after hours or on holidays cost more), the time of year, the type, size, and brand of your HVAC system, the specific repair needed, and whether you have a service contract.

You can buy R-22 refrigerant for your home air-conditioning system through your local AC repair specialist, who can also refill your R-22 system as needed. You may find that the cost of R-22 has gone up due to shortages as the EPA banned this refrigerant. Ask your pro to inspect your system for any leaks or issues.

There are two main reasons your furnace and AC are turning on at the same time. The first could be that you’re confusing the furnace with the blower. The blower is located in the furnace and will turn on to distribute cool air from the air conditioner through the ductwork in the home. This is normal. If the actual furnace is turning on at the same time as the AC and hot and cool air are coming into the home, it could be a result of incorrect writing to a new thermostat or new systems.
