have generally had good service from them--not completely happy with furnace installers this time

Our air conditioner quit cooling just as the recent heat wave started, despite receiving regular maintenance. AWE got a technician out the same day we called.The diagnosis was was that all the refrigerant had leaked out. A system engineer called us that night, and got out here the next day. He spent two hours exploring several options, and very patiently walked us through the pros and cons of each. For a bunch of complicated reasons, the best approach was to replace both our old furnace and our old AC system with high-tech, efficient new ones. Although due to the heat wave, they couldn't get the installation scheduled for over a week, they took care of getting the necessary permit, showed up on the promised day, and worked 'til 8:00 PM so we'd have AC that day. Although AWE may be on the higher end in price, we feel that we get value for the money in terms of reliability, quality and general service. Sometimes, cheap is too expensive!

Needed a new water heater in a hurry. We have had an ongoing relationship with AWE for years, and they come through every time in every category. Prices are about average, service is stellar.

Where to Find Good HVAC Help

To make sure your heating and air-conditioning systems work when needed, they must be properly installed and maintained. We’ve rated area heating and air-conditioning services for quality and price.

What to Do If You Need HVAC Repairs

If you need repairs, our ratings of local businesses will help you find a good company to perform them.

Choosing New HVAC Equipment and Getting It Installed Properly

How well a new HVAC system performs, and how much it costs, depends heavily on its design and the quality of installation. It’s important to make the right decisions—and there are many to make. You also must make sure to get a fair contract.

HVAC Equipment Features to Consider

If you are installing new equipment, in addition to making choices about energy efficiency, you will need to decide whether to pay extra for various features. Here is a summary of the types of add-ons.

Are Heat Pumps the Future of HVAC?

Improved technology, generous tax credits and rebates, and lower utility bills might have us reconsider how to heat and cool our homes.

Maintaining Your HVAC Equipment

The most important maintenance task for HVAC systems is something you can do yourself—replacing the air filter. Check your filter monthly. When a filter has a matting of dirt—i.e., it’s difficult to see through when you hold it up to a light—it’s time to replace it.

HVAC Maintenance Contracts Are Usually Bad Buys

Rather than paying for individual maintenance visits and repair jobs, you might consider getting a service contract for air-conditioning and/or heating equipment. Many companies try to persuade customers to enter into such contracts.
