Consumer Comments for GAC Services

Consumer from DAMASCUS, MD

Have been using GAC services since they were a small 5 person operation. They have become quite large now. We had a complete new system installed a bit over 2 years ago and when it malfunctioned, a service person was out the same day. It turned out to be a complicated problem with our ductwork and adjustments to the operation of the system were made. The system has functioned perfectly since. They may be a bit more expensive than some, but I have confidence in their work.

I have a service contract with them, so my comments are based on their performance of the maintenance. The work always seems to be good, but is almost always accompanied by an effort to upsell me to a modification of the system. (I wait until they suggest the same thing on two visits before I take the recommendation seriously.) They have not increased the price of the contract over the years!

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.
