Popular Services Requested of Heating And Air Conditioning Contractors
The most common air conditioning, heating, and ventilation system repairs and services are listed below for your convenience. We’ve also included a list of the most popular brands of HVAC units available.
AC Repair (Air Conditioner Repair)
HVAC contractors perform residential air conditioner repairs to fix broken AC units, replace failing air conditioner parts, upgrade air conditioners with new parts that are more energy-efficient and prepare AC units for seasonal use.
Heater Repair (Furnace Repair)
As with home air conditioner repairs, home heater repairs upgrade old furnace parts, repair broken furnaces, replace failing heater parts and make old heaters more energy-efficient for winter home heating. Heater repair technicians can also check for dangerous furnace emissions (such as carbon monoxide) and fix any potential leaks.
Furnace Installation
New furnaces can be installed by local heating and cooling companies. Furnace installers may put in standalone furnaces, or they can install a new furnace as part of a home heating and cooling system. In order to get the best results and ensure the safety of your new home heater, furnace installation should only be done by an experienced professional.
HVAC Unit Installation
HVAC unit installation is a complicated process that involves determining which size of heating and cooling equipment is needed; which brand and model of HVAC unit is best for your needs; detailed installation methods to keep air conditioner and furnace warranties intact; and the actual installation process, which must be done correctly in order to preserve the safety and integrity of the equipment. Experts recommend that HVAC equipment (including air conditioners, heaters, home ventilation systems, boiler systems and furnaces) should be installed by professional HVAC installation companies.
Heating and Air Conditioning Unit Repairs
Air conditioning and heating unit repairs include repairs to the heating and cooling elements, air intake, fans, and mechanical components of HVAC units.
Home Ventilation System Installation & Repair
Home ventilation system installation and repairs deal with the air intake vents, exhaust fans, home ventilator, air ducts and ventilation system controls. Some ventilation systems are integrated with heating and cooling systems while others are standalone ventilation systems. Residential ventilation systems remove stale air from the home, bring in fresh air from outside and move the air around inside the home.
Energy Star HVAC Systems
Energy Star HVAC systems are heating and cooling units that are Energy Star certified. Energy Star is a labeling system designed by the Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Department of Energy. Energy Star heating and cooling systems, air conditioners, furnaces, boilers, and other home comfort systems are extensively tested to ensure high efficiency standards.
Portable Air Conditioning Units
Often seen as window air conditioners or compact air conditioners on wheels, portable air conditioning units are small, movable AC units that are not permanently installed and can be moved from room to room.
Central Air Conditioner Installation
Central air conditioners are cooling and dehumidifying systems that work from a central location in a home or business to distribute cool air throughout the building. Central air conditioners are often installed together with central heating furnaces and are known as HVAC units.
Residential Heating and Cooling System Installation
HVAC companies offer installation of residential heating and cooling systems. Installation generally includes removal of old HVAC equipment, installation, and custom fitting of new heating and cooling components.
