We had installed a new A/C unit installed for $6,800 and another quote came in from a top rated contractor for almost the same amount. The installation was completed in less than a day and the installer(s) did fantastic work. We use Pope for our annual servicing and yes I think it is worth it to do.

Consumer from Gainesville, VA

WARNING -- EXTREME MARK-UPS on parts in addition to high after-hours-call-surcharge!!! OK, a $175 surcharge for a Sunday service call, we can deal with. We had to do that. However, with two external parts replaced, a capacitor and a Jerry-rigged inexact replacement igniter, for a parts total of $524, this total invoice charge of over $699 is outrageous for a less-than-one-hour service call. These two parts items can be purchased locally for less than $30, or ON-LINE for less than $13. That's almost 17 and 1/2 times local retail -- over 1700 % mark-up! A one-star rating is too good.

What to Do If You Need HVAC Repairs

If you need repairs to heating or air-conditioning equipment, 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.
