"This A/C technician was by far the best I have used in some time. He did not try to sell me anything or tell me my air conditioner was in need of replacement. That always seems to the the tactic of many technicians. I would strongly recommend this company and this technician to anyone. Robert Stansberry, satisfied customer."
"Short Pump is now my "go to" company for HVAC, plumbing and soon for some electrical work. This is due to my experiences with Chris. He is professional, respects my home and does great work. I ask for Chris for all HVAC and plumbing needs."
"They offered incredible customer service and the installer was so kind and knowledgeable. The system works great! We?re so happy with such warm temperatures coming. We will definitely be repeat customers in future."
"Everyone from Hopewell office set up everything, including setting up to having a crane place the HVAC on top of the condo. All the installers were Professional and just wonderful. They gave info on all they were doing. I give them an outstanding rating!"
"I've been using C3 for several years. They have both fixed and replaced my HVAC units, as well as provided maintenance ongoing. Every time I've had a need for their services I have received top notch , prompt response and reasonable pricing. They've done so well for me, everyone else on my street now uses them as well."
"The owner was very professional and communication was perfect. I had to have a furnace and water heater replaced in my rental property. The estimates were very reasonable. It was also suggested that I replace the A/C Coils since they were old and needed to be removed in order to replace the furnace. This will save on labor cost in the spring when I have the outside ac unit replaced. The job was completed in a day. I would recommend Climate Mechanical and plan on using them in the future. Thanks"
"They've been servicing our equipment for the last 8 or 10 years. They're fine, they're not cheap, they're no the greatest thing ever going. We go on an annual contract, we got two units. We use them begrudgingly. We know their management and it's very responsive. They're familiar with us and our units. They're fine, they're good. Richmond has two or three good HVAC people, these are one of them."
"We were having a tough time with our HVAC, I got quotes from different companies, but couldnâ t select any of them because the prices were too high and was taking weeks to install the new system. Total Comfort provided a decent solution to replace our AC and Propane furnace for a reasonable cost within 2 days. I highly recommend them!"
Heating and Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts
Yes, through thorough cleaning and inspection, optimizing functionality, and reducing energy use.
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.
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.
A new air conditioner capacitor will cost less than replacing the entire air conditioner system. While a capacitor itself will cost between $8 and $25, paying a professional to replace an AC capacitor will cost $180 on average. It’s not safe to replace an air conditioner capacitor on your own.
Yes, a dehumidifier and air conditioner can be used simultaneously in a home. A dehumidifier can bolster an air conditioner’s efficiency. Typically, a dehumidifier is used when the air conditioner alone cannot keep a home’s humidity levels at a comfortable indoor humidity level, which should, ideally, be between 30% and 50%.
