What does the One Hour mean in your company name?

If we do not show up within that window, your service call fee is waived. 1. Express Appointment: This is an appointment that is scheduled during a specified one-hour time slot. You are promised that a technician will arrive at your home within this one-hour time window. You will also receive a call when the technician is en route to your home. 2.

Do you service emergencies after-hours?

Yes, we offer emergency services 24-hours a day, year-round.

How much will my service cost?

The size and complexity of your HVAC issue will determine the cost. Because our trained, licensed HVAC technicians must diagnose the issue before we are able to quote you an accurate cost, we require an appointment to be set to complete a diagnostic on your system. Once the diagnostic is complete, your One Hour(R) technician will walk you through all costs using our Straightforward Pricing(R) Guide so there are never any surprise fees.

How often should I service my HVAC system?

It's ideal to service your cooling system each spring and your heating system each fall to ensure you find small issues before they become big problems.

How often do I need to change my HVAC filter?

Your filter should be changed every one to three months, depending on conditions in your home and your region's climate.

Do you offer purchase financing?

We work built relationships with several lenders to ensure our customers are able to restore comfort in their homes. Ask your technician about your financing options.

What are the advantages of a smart thermostat?

Smart thermostats learn a household's patterns and adjust heating and cooling according to when a home is occupied, give homeowners the ability to control the thermostat remotely, and enable homeowners to reduce their energy use, saving you money.

HVAC means Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning. HVAC systems refer to air conditioners, furnaces, and any unit that cools indoor spaces during the summer and warm them in the winter. In general, an HVAC system takes in air, heats or cools that air, and blows it into a room or any indoor space. While many homes have separate air conditioning and heating units, others have a heat pump that cools and heats the house. Not only do HVAC systems maintain desired temperatures, but they also improve indoor air quality and regulate humidity levels. But most importantly, these units provide comfort all year round.

What is a SEER2 Rating?

The SEER2 (seasonal energy efficiency ratio) is a measure of the efficiency of your heating and cooling system.The higher the SEER2 rating, the more efficiently a unit operates. The SEER2 rating of any given unit can range anywhere from 13 to 21.

“They spent more time on the inside unit than they did on the outside, but everything looked fine. I’m handicapped so it was hard for me to get up there to see what they did. They changed the filter for me on the inside unit and they must’ve looked at the wiring on the inside unit, but I don’t know what they found. They said it looked pretty good. I guess if they did everything they were supposed to do they did a good job.”

“Our technicians Kenneth Allen and Michael Dorris arrived on time. They were knowledgeable and courteous! They got what I thought was going to be a huge problem resolved in record time. I left them at my house while I went to pick up my husband from the airport. When I returned home they had finished. The issues were completely resolved and they left everything tidy! I highly recommend them to anyone that wants the job done properly!”
