General

Yes. All our parts for repairs and services come with a 1-year labor and parts warranty unless you are a part of The Comfort Club, which in that case you have a lifetime warranty on both repairs and labor for any work we do as long as you are active in the club. It’s pretty incredible, we know. For new equipment, we have different parts and labor warranties for each series of equipment. Check out replacement pages for more information about specifics on warranty, or just reach out to one of our representatives.

Most residential installations are completed in one day. Commercial installations can vary depending on the size of the project.

Yes, typically we can offer same day service for estimates, repairs, tune-ups, duct cleaning and other HVAC services. Our regular hours are between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., however, we also have technicians available for emergencies 24/7. Our technicians can come out to install your unit within a week of your scheduled estimate.

SEER is the Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio. A concept commonly used when measuring a central air conditioning system efficiency. When the SEER is high, it means the unit is being very efficient, as contrary to when the SEER is low, it might mean there are system issues or something preventing the unit from working to full capacity.

Heat Seasonal Performance Factor. This is a measuring unit for a heat pump heating efficiency. As with the SEER, the higher the HSPF the better the efficiency.

AFUE rating is a measurement unit used to determine the efficiency levels of a gas furnace converting fuel to energy. The higher the number, the better. The best you can get in today’s market can go up to an AFUE of 95.

EER stands for Energy Efficiency Ratio. It is a measurement unit that determines how a cooling system operates when the outdoor temperature is at a specific level. You want this to be as high as possible, as it means better efficiency.

Current technologies make it possible for the equipment to withstand the environment all year round with no major issues. These should never be covered by any means!

It is advised to keep it “auto” since this way the fan will only go on when the temperature requires it. This will keep your unit more efficient.

It is possible to do so. However, allow space to the unit so the airflow doesn’t get blocked. If by any means the airflow gets blocked, the unit could overheat and lead to other and possible major issues.

Indeed! Units are forever and ever attached. This means that if you engage two different units, they might not work efficiently, and this could affect not only your cooling and/or heating system, but also your energy bills! And of course, we don’t want that!

Our technicians strive to supply our customers with the best possible system to match their needs. Our comfort experts take into account all factors for your family such as: square footage, insulation of the house/apartment/facility, body heat and any other heat-producing factors.

A/C Repair

You should give us a call whenever you start hearing strange noises or getting new smells coming from the unit. Other reasons might include warm air blowing while using A/C or utility bills dramatically increasing when your usage habits have not changed.

If you’d like to check a few things before calling us, you may start by checking there’s not any blockage in the furnace, check if the unit is actually on and set to a cycle-provoking temperature. You may also check the thermostat, it may be that it is running out of batteries or experiencing connection issues. Note if something seems unusual about the smells, looks or sounds and let us know immediately If you are unsure what to do, it may be best to leave your system off until a technician makes it out to your home.

The temperature of your A/C system will depend on the temperature of the air entering in. Ideally, the air coming out of your vents should be between 15 and 20 degrees cooler than the air entering the return ventilation path. Keep in mind these ranges may vary depending on the humidity in the air. Always wait at least 20 minutes since the unit started working to compare the levels of cooling.

A/C systems are closed systems. The refrigerant should not escape from the unit! If you do have a leak, call us right away at (702) 567-0707, and we’ll be more than glad to help you! It is a common misconception that systems must be recharged once a year. Typically this is recommended by companies who do not install the equipment correctly and do not ensure completely sealed systems during a new installation.

Typically, a frozen A/C unit is suffering from the restricted airflow. What you can do right away after noticing is checking the filter! You may have accidentally blocked the air return or may be suffering a refrigerant leak. Give us a call and we’ll help you through this. Before having someone come out to your home to check out your challenges, make sure to turn off your system and allow it to thaw.

All equipment requires a professional tune-up at least twice a year to ensure they’re working at full capacity and to fix any small issues that may turn into major problems if not noticed and taken care of. Like recurring maintenance you would do to a vehicle or boat, your HVAC system requires similar maintenance and upkeep to ensure peak performance.

A replacement is highly advised if your equipment is older than 13 years old. Like most technology, HVAC equipment ages. As it ages the efficiency dramatically decreases. New, more efficient equipment is constantly being introduced to the marketplace. To ensure that you are getting the most efficiency and comfort from your HVAC system, it is recommended to keep your system operating at a minimum 14 SEER. We are a huge fan of a minimum of 16 SEER as we know that technology is moving at an incredibly fast rate. If you have any doubts let us know and give us a chance to check it out. We’ll be sure to give our best recommendations and all available options.

Almost all furnaces use a fossil fuel like oil, propane, or natural gas in order to produce heat. The furnace air handler forces unheated air past burners that produce flames from the gas or oil; this component is often referred to as a heat exchanger. Heated air is then carried throughout the home through the duct system. The thermostat then takes care of ensuring that the temperature is controlled and set to your desired comfort temperature.

If your furnace is older than 10-15 years you might want to consider a new one. Besides the great technological improvements done over the course of the last decade, it can also lower your bills and give you a healthier environment.

Sounds pretty fancy, we know Give us a call and we’ll tell you all about it!

A ventilation system with heat recovery will greatly reduce your energy consumption. The energy won from the extracted air is approximately 15 – 20 times greater than the energy consumed by highly efficient motors of the ventilation device.

When cold outside air is heated to room temperature its relative humidity drops and the air feels dry. Homeowners have often resorted to additional humidity and control equipment to monitor precise indoor home comfort. With the powerful indoor comfort technology made by Lennox, we are able to help design a comfort system that meets all of your comfort preferences.

This is just the beginning. There is quite a bit more you can do to customize your system. We’d love to show you how!

This question can be answered in two main ways, equipment-based, it is just two different systems in which one includes two units (one indoor and one outdoor) and another one which is all included. The space-based answer is more related to how much space do you have in your home or facility, keeping in mind a split takes up more space than a packaged unit.

Packaged Units

A packaged unit is an all-inclusive system that is able to move hot air from one place to another in the winter in order to create a good environment, and able to do the same with cooling in hot summer months. The compact design and roof installation allows packaged units to be a go-to choice for many homeowners as it is a convenient solution when considering a new indoor comfort system.

Indoor Air Quality

“Indoor air quality,” or IAQ mainly has to do with the number of pollutants inside, but it’s also determined by humidity and ventilation levels. An investigation has found that concentrations of pollutants can be up to 100 times higher indoors than outdoors.

No. Filters are made according to the need of the household, one of the most important factors when buying a new filter is sensitivity to allergens. The more sensitive a person is to allergens, the higher the efficiency of the filter has to be.

There are many factors causing indoor air pollution, and they cannot be completely avoided, for example, carpeting, furniture, cleaning agents, personal care products.

Clean air makes life better. If you suffer from allergies or asthma it drastically changes your life quality, as it makes it easier to breathe. By removing pollution from the air, particles, and viruses, there’s no doubt health will get better.

Poor indoor air quality can be the cause of numerous health issues. Investigation reports that as many as half of all illnesses are caused or aggravated by indoor air pollution.

While it is impossible to keep air 100% clean, there are ways in which you can reduce pollution, and luckily, it can be done by you! For example:

  • Store any household cleaners, and if possible, keep them outdoors
  • Clean and vacuum at least once a week
  • Regularly wash bed linens and stuffed toys
  • Keep windows closed when pollen, pollution, and humidity levels are high
  • Have your HVAC system regularly inspected (at least once a year)

Air Ducts Repair

Clean air ducts will keep your house free of allergens or particles that could potentially affect you, your family’s and even your pet’s health.

It typically takes 2 technicians between 2 to 5 hours to clean a standard size home.

We recommend cleaning every 3-5 years. But keep in mind that If someone in the house suffers from asthma, allergies, or any other respiratory concern, it can be more frequent.
