FAQs
What air conditioning services does your Tazewell team provide?
As a full-service heating and air conditioning partner, we handle every stage of your cooling needs in Tazewell—from system selection and sizing to professional installation, preventive maintenance, repairs, and complete system replacement. Whether you need a brand-new central AC, a high-efficiency heat pump, a ductless mini-split for a single room, or a quick refrigerant recharge, our NATE-certified technicians are trained and equipped to deliver reliable, code-compliant service.
How can I tell if my AC needs repair or full replacement?
Age, repair frequency, and energy efficiency are the main indicators. If your unit is 10–15 years old, requires major components such as a compressor, or your utility bills have climbed despite regular maintenance, it may be more cost-effective to replace it. For newer systems with isolated issues—strange noises, uneven cooling, or short cycling—repair is usually sufficient. We provide honest diagnostics and a cost-benefit analysis so you can make an informed decision.
Which air conditioning brands do you install and service?
We are factory-authorized dealers for Carrier and Trane, known for their durability and high SEER ratings. However, our technicians work on virtually all major brands found in Tazewell homes and small businesses, including Lennox, Rheem, Goodman, Bryant, York, Amana, and Mitsubishi mini-splits. Our close relationships with these manufacturers allow us to access genuine parts quickly, keep warranties intact, and stay updated on the latest technology.
How often should I schedule AC maintenance and what does a tune-up include?
For most homes in Tazewell’s hot, humid summers, we recommend a professional tune-up once a year in early spring. During a maintenance visit, we clean evaporator and condenser coils, tighten electrical connections, lubricate moving parts, check refrigerant charge, inspect the blower, calibrate the thermostat, and test overall system performance. Routine servicing improves efficiency by up to 15%, reduces breakdowns, and keeps your manufacturer’s warranty valid.
Are there energy-efficient options that can help lower my cooling bills?
Absolutely. High-efficiency systems with SEER2 ratings of 16–25 can cut cooling costs by 30% or more compared to older 10-SEER units. We offer variable-speed compressors, smart thermostats, zoning solutions, and ENERGY STAR®-qualified heat pumps that both heat and cool—ideal for Tazewell’s moderate winters. Our team performs free in-home load calculations to ensure the equipment is correctly sized, maximizing comfort and savings.
Do you offer emergency AC repair, and how fast can you respond?
Yes. We understand a failed AC during a Tazewell heatwave is more than an inconvenience—it can be a health risk. Our emergency line is staffed 24/7, and technicians are on rotating on-call shifts. In most cases we arrive within two hours of your call, stocked with common replacement parts so we can restore cooling on the first visit whenever possible.
