"ACS installed a new Bryant heat pump + furnace. The equipment is high quality and the team was knowledgeable, flexible, and willing to answer all my questions. They accommodated a change in scope on the day of install from just installing a heat pump to installing a furnace + heat pump combo. This set the team back a few hours for the last minute parts request, but they powered through a very long day and stayed until the job was finished. All customer service goes directly through the owner operator. Originally this seemed like a plus, but I think they would benefit from support staff. I needed to edit and downgrade this review after a few negative experiences. Some changes are related to issues noticed after the install. The unit was not secured to the pad outdoors and also was not attached to the house. Holes cut into the corner of the garage slab in order to pass through the lines were not patched, leaving a break in the envelope. Mark promised to follow up on both of these, but he did not send anyone out to take care of this. Mark also directly promised that our install would qualify for Energy Trust of Oregon incentives for $3000, when in fact it is clear after speaking directly with Energy Trust representatives that our install did not qualify for any amount of rebate. This promise was echoed throughout the quote and the install process. I believe that the lack of a support staff is causing some shortcutting or disorganization when it comes to managing some of these details - I would prefer to assume that ACS did not know the details of the incentive rather than that they purposefully deceived me, but I dont feel comfortable recommending them given these circumstances."

"Extremely Disappointed with Chimcare’s Service and Product, go with someone else! Our experience with Chimcare started off positively—they did a great job removing a large chimney from our house and installing a gas fireplace insert. Unfortunately, everything went downhill after that. The gas insert they sold us, a Regency brand, has been nothing but a nightmare. Over the last three years, we’ve had to call Chimcare out to repair it at least eight times. Each time, the fireplace works for only a couple of weeks—or less—before breaking down again, often in the same way. Most recently, the ceramic insert they installed broke after just a few days of intermittent use. This strongly suggests that their technicians are not properly trained at installing the ceramic inserts, leading to repeated failures. Because of these issues, we’ve had a functional fireplace for only two months total over the last two years. This failure to provide a reliable product and service has significantly impacted our family. We’ve gone through two Thanksgivings and two Christmases without a working fireplace. To make matters worse, during the major ice storm last year, we were left without the heat the fireplace could have provided—something we should have been able to rely on to keep our home and two small children warm during a power outage. Despite our repeated requests, Chimcare has been incredibly unhelpful in resolving the situation. I’ve had to pester them with calls every few days to get any progress on having Regency honor the warranty. They are completely unresponsive/not-proactive unless I am calling them directly - technician, project planner, and front office are all favorites in my phone - at this point, I’ve had to call daily just to get any updates or action on what should be a simple warranty replacement. Their lack of proactivity and accountability has been exhausting and deeply disappointing and makes it seem like they are not actually trying to honor my warranty and for what we paid for in terms of service. It’s incredibly frustrating to have spent so much money on this installation, only to deal with constant repairs, an unusable product, and a company that refuses to address their technician’s clear errors. While their team is polite when scheduling repairs and when the technicians are present, politeness doesn’t make up for poor service and unreliability. We deeply regret choosing Chimcare for our fireplace installation and strongly advise others to look elsewhere for their fireplace needs."

Yes, cleaning air ducts is worth it because it improves your HVAC system's efficiency and extends its lifespan. Dust and dirt accumulation force the system to work harder, increasing energy costs. By removing contaminants from your ducts, you enhance indoor air quality and create a healthier environment for your household.
You should get your air ducts cleaned at least every three to five years to maintain optimal indoor air quality and system efficiency. Additionally, consider scheduling a cleaning after purchasing a new home, completing a remodeling project, or if you notice signs of mold, pests, or excessive dust. Regular cleanings help prevent allergens from circulating and keep your HVAC system running smoothly.
You can tell your air ducts need to be cleaned if you notice visible mold growth inside ducts or on other HVAC components, excessive dust or debris blowing out of vents, or musty odors when the system is running. Other signs include unexplained allergy symptoms, inconsistent airflow, increased energy bills, or evidence of rodent or insect infestations in your ductwork.
Yes, air duct cleaning can cause damage if not performed correctly. DIY efforts or hiring uncertified companies may lead to damaged ductwork, loosened connections, or punctures that reduce system efficiency. Professional duct cleaners use specialized equipment and follow industry standards to ensure thorough cleaning without harming your ducts, so it's important to hire qualified professionals.
No, standard duct cleaning does not remove mold. While cleaning can remove visible dust and debris, mold requires specialized remediation. If a professional cleaner discovers mold in your air ducts, they will have it tested to identify the type and extent. Then, a certified mold remediation specialist should address the issue to eliminate mold from your ducts and prevent it from returning.
You can decrease the need for frequent air duct cleanings by regularly changing your HVAC filters every one to three months, using high-quality filters that trap more dust and allergens. Keeping your home clean by vacuuming and dusting regularly reduces the amount of debris entering the ducts. Sealing any gaps in your ductwork can prevent dust accumulation, and maintaining your HVAC system with regular professional inspections helps ensure optimal performance.
