"We've used Upstate Comfort Systems for our furnace, AC and emergency heating/thermostat issues over the last few years - always great service. We had an aging water heater and decided it was time to look into replacing it, so it was a no brainer to contact Dale. He came to the house, we talked through options based on our wants and needs, and he explained the pros and cons for each. Yesterday, he replaced our conventional tank with a new heat pump hybrid one and couldn't be happier. Dale and Michael were great, as always - professional, courteous, cleaned up when they were done and gave an overview of the new system after. When asked by an engineering friend as we talked through our options prior to choosing the heat pump hybrid, he asked if I trusted my guy (Dale) and I answered, absolutely! With that, I'd highly recommend Upstate Comfort Systems to anyone needing HVAC+ services."

"I recently had a new furnace installed by IJN Eastside. I was very pleased with the experience from start to finish. The process was smooth and professional. The team arrived on time, explained everything clearly, and completed the installation efficiently. The new furnace runs quietly and heats my home much more effectively than my old unit. I also appreciate that they took the time to clean up after the installation and ensure everything was working properly before they left. I had three estimates done, and IJN Eastside was by far the lowest. If you're looking for a reliable HVAC company, I highly recommend IJN Eastside for a hassle-free furnace installation."

Central a/c service or repairs FAQs

An AC capacitor provides the electrical energy needed to start and run your air conditioner's motors. It stores and releases electricity to keep the compressor and fans running smoothly. Without a functioning capacitor, your AC unit may not start or operate efficiently. If you notice problems with your AC unit, contact a professional to diagnose the problem and see if you need to replace your AC capacitor.

AC capacitors last between five and 15 years, with an average lifespan of ten years. Environmental conditions and system usage can affect their lifespan. Regular maintenance can help extend the life of your capacitor. When your replacement capacitor is installed, be sure to ask your AC technician about best practices for maintenance and ongoing service to keep your unit in good condition for as long as possible.

While you might save between $60 and $200 by replacing the capacitor yourself, it's not recommended unless you have electrical expertise and proper safety equipment. Replacing a capacitor involves risks like electric shock and potential damage to your AC unit. It's safer to hire a certified HVAC technician who ensures safe and accurate installation.

It's safest to have a qualified technician inspect your AC capacitor. If you decide to look at it yourself after turning off all power, you can carefully remove the front panel and check the capacitor for any visible issues. However, handling electrical components carries risks, so professional inspection is recommended.
