HVAC Maintenance Questions

    Preventive HVAC maintenance is crucial for keeping your system running efficiently, preventing unexpected breakdowns, extending its lifespan, and potentially lowering your energy bills. Regular tune-ups and system checkups ensure your unit is working optimally year-round.

  • How often should I have my HVAC system maintained?

    We recommend getting system maintenance every 90-180 days, which translates to annual HVAC servicing, ideally before the heating and cooling seasons. This includes tune-ups, system checkups, checking operating pressures, and outdoor equipment cleaning every six months.

HVAC Installation & Replacement Questions

  • What types of HVAC systems do you install?

    We install a wide range of HVAC systems, including central air conditioning units, furnaces (including gas furnace installation), heat pumps (heat pump installation), and ductless mini-split systems. We are a Ruud dealer but are happy to work with any brand you prefer.

  • How do I know if I need a new HVAC installation or replacement?

    Signs you might need a new HVAC installation service or replacement include frequent breakdowns, inconsistent heating or cooling, unusually high energy bills, or an aging system (typically 10-15 years old or more). We offer free estimates to assess your current system and provide honest recommendations.

  • What are the benefits of a ductless mini-split installation?

    Mini-split installation offers several benefits, including zone-based control for targeted cooling, versatility for spaces without ductwork (like garages or workshops), high energy efficiency, quiet operation, and easy installation.

  • Can you help me choose the right HVAC system for my home or business?

    Absolutely! Our experienced technicians will assess your space, discuss your comfort needs and budget, and provide expert guidance on choosing the best-sized and most energy-efficient system for your residential or commercial HVAC services needs.

  • What is HVAC system retrofitting?

    HVAC system retrofitting involves upgrading older HVAC equipment or components with more modern, energy-efficient solutions without a full system replacement. This can include smart controls, new AC units, or improved ventilation components, helping you maximize comfort and lower energy bills.

HVAC Repair & Emergency Questions

  • My A/C isn't cooling. What should I do?
