"In the middle of a heat wave my AC broke down during the night. I called a company I have used previously, but they weren't able to get to me for at least a week. While searching for a repairman using an app Circumvent contacted me and would come that day by 6 pm. The technician was able to come earlier. He found the issues right away and was able to repair my AC in less than an hour. The price was fair. He explained everything to me before proceeding."

"torn between 2 &4 stars but went with 2 only because I feel the cost exceeded in my opinion a reasonable cost to replace with a basic 40-gallon electric hot water heater based on the cost I paid two months ago to have a new eclectic 70-gallon high efficiency heat pump water heater and expansion tank installed. We had no time to shop around.... 4 stars for the prompt repair and 2 stars on the pricing."

"I decided to get a quote from Heritage since my plumber wasn't available. They came to my house and quoted to replace two faucets at just under $2,000.00 (this included 2 Kohl faucets basic type, nothing fancy). They also wanted me to sign up for annual service at an additional charge. After I almost had a heart attack the cost, I declined their offer and said I think I need to look further. Finally, my original plumber was available. I bought the 2 faucets from home depot for $250.00. My plumber installed the 2 faucets, repaired an issue with my kitchen sink as well as install a new toilet for the total price of $225.00. If your smart, find someone else! I don't recommend this company unless you want to be raked over the coals."

Central a/c service or repairs FAQs

An evaporator coil is a crucial component of your air conditioning system, responsible for cooling the air inside your home. It absorbs heat from the indoor air, allowing the system to blow cool air through your vents. Keeping your AC well-maintained helps it run efficiently and can save you money on energy bills.

AC condensers can present a variety of common problems, including dirt and debris accumulation, drain blockages, and water leaks. Leaking refrigerant, faulty electrical components, damaged coils, and burnt-out motors can indicate more complex repair needs.

Some of these issues can be easily fixed, while others may require a total unit replacement. For the most accurate assessment, contact an AC contractor in your area.

The AC coils typically last the lifetime of your system, ranging from 10 to 20 years, depending on factors such as maintenance, quality, and other variables. Have your AC condenser coils inspected and cleaned periodically to maximize their lifespan and optimize cooling performance. Ask your HVAC pro for recommendations on how to stay on top of all critical AC maintenance.

Home warranties cover AC coils when the policy explicitly protects key HVAC components. This means that if an AC coil fails under the scope of your warranty, repair or replacement expenses are covered. Your warranty documentation confirms whether coil repairs are included, and manufacturer warranties protect both the AC condenser and its coils. It is important to review your contract details to know your exact coverage.

Warning signs that your AC condenser is failing include noticeable fluid leaks and loud, unusual noises. These indicators confirm that the condenser is under stress and its performance is compromised. Decreased cooling efficiency, uneven indoor temperatures, and increased energy consumption further signal that the unit is deteriorating. Recognizing these signs ensures you engage a professional for a thorough evaluation and prompt repair.
