FAQs
What makes your certified HVAC technicians stand out in Birchwood?
Every technician on our Birchwood team is NATE-certified, state-licensed, and fully insured. In addition to passing background checks and drug screenings, they complete ongoing factory training each year to stay current on the latest air-conditioning technology, codes, and safety standards. This means the person who arrives at your door has proven expertise in diagnostics, repair, and installation, giving you peace of mind and reliable, code-compliant workmanship.
How often should my air conditioner be serviced, and what does a tune-up include?
For Birchwood’s climate, we recommend a professional maintenance visit once a year—ideally in early spring—so your AC is ready for peak summer demand. During a tune-up, our certified technician will: • Inspect and clean condenser and evaporator coils • Check refrigerant levels and look for leaks • Tighten electrical connections and test capacitors • Lubricate motors and bearings • Calibrate the thermostat and verify system controls • Flush the condensate drain and replace the filter • Measure airflow and temperature split This preventive visit improves efficiency, extends equipment life, and helps you avoid costly midsummer breakdowns.
Do you offer 24/7 emergency air-conditioning repair in Birchwood?
Yes. We know AC failures don’t respect business hours, so our certified technicians are on call 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. When you call our emergency line, a live dispatcher will send the nearest available tech—usually arriving within two hours. Service trucks are stocked with common replacement parts, allowing us to complete most repairs on the first visit and restore your comfort quickly.
Can your team improve my system’s energy efficiency and lower my utility bills?
Absolutely. After a detailed assessment of your current equipment, ductwork, and thermostat settings, we recommend upgrades or adjustments tailored to your home. Solutions may include high-efficiency variable-speed systems, smart thermostats, duct sealing, or zoning. Our Birchwood customers typically see 15–30 % energy savings after implementing our recommendations, and we guide you through local utility rebates and federal tax credits to maximize your return on investment.
What should I expect during a new AC installation, and how long does it take?
A standard replacement in Birchwood usually takes one full day. We begin with a load calculation to size the system correctly, then review equipment options and pricing. On installation day, we protect your floors with drop cloths, remove and recycle the old unit, set the new condenser and air handler, install a new pad and line set if needed, connect electrical and refrigerant lines, pressure-test and evacuate the system, and perform a final start-up check. Before we leave, the technician will walk you through thermostat programming, maintenance tips, and warranty registration.
Are your repairs and installations backed by warranties, and do you handle the paperwork?
Yes. All repairs come with a one-year parts and labor warranty, and new installations include a 10-year parts warranty plus up to 12 years on compressors if registered within 60 days—coverage varies by manufacturer. Our office staff submits all warranty registrations and rebate paperwork on your behalf, so you never have to chase forms or deadlines. If a warranty claim arises, we coordinate directly with the manufacturer to get your parts quickly and at no additional cost.
