Heating & Cooling FAQ

What brands or equipment do you service?

We offer tune-ups for all brands of central heating and cooling equipment. Equipment serviced includes central air conditioners, furnaces, heat pumps and air quality systems such as whole-home humidifiers, dehumidifiers and air cleaners. Tune-up service is also available for oil furnaces and ductless mini-splits.

What is the life expectancy of my HVAC system?

How often you run your system, the system’s age, its make and model, and whether or not it was serviced regularly over the course of its life can all play a significant role in how long your system will last. Generally speaking though you can expect your system to last approximately 10-15 years.

How do I know if I need a new system?

If your unit is 10 years or older, requires frequent repairs, fails to keep up with the weather, or produces high utility bills, it may be more economical to replace your existing system.

How do I know which system is right for my home?

To properly size an HVAC system, you will need to have a detailed load calculation and evaluation of your home performed. Contact us to schedule a FREE consultation.

Is preventative maintenance important?

A Preventative Maintenance Agreement is important for your furnace, heat pump, or air conditioner for the same reason your vehicle requires annual maintenance and oil changes. You want your HVAC to perform at it’s best when you need it most. By spending a little twice a year, you can save a lot in energy bills by keeping your system operating at peak efficiency. You also can avoid costly repairs by identifying and fixing minor problems before they turn into big ones.
