Heating & Air Conditioning - Commercial & Residential

Sales & Service:  We sell, service and install all major brands of heating and cooling equipment featuring energy saving Trane® equipment and Honeywell® products. We have a complete sheet metal shop where we build all of our ductwork, custom hoods, flashing and anything else you need. We carry many parts in stock, but we can order just about anything you need and can have most parts delivered within a couple of business days.

Because your comfort is always our top priority, we offer 24-Hour Service.  All of our technicians hold HVAC Electrical Licenses, are EPA Certified and receive continuing education on an ongoing basis in order to stay on top of the latest industry technology and provide you with the best service possible.

Quoting:  Our estimates are always free and, unlike many contractors who install the same system in every home, we always custom design each quote to meet your needs.  We also bid select commercial jobs that are requested by the contractor, building owner or open for public bid (photos).  Either way, you can rest assured that we won't sell you unnecessary/ oversized equipment just to turn a dollar.  We also won't sell you an undersized unit just to get your business. 

Our estimator will come out to your home/business or look at your blueprints (and spec books if applicable) and explain your quote to you in detail.  We believe in educating our customers so that they can make informed decisions about their investment.  (Common HVAC Terms)

Installation:  We specialize in new construction, retrofit installations and equipment change outs.  State building codes set the minimum acceptable standards, but when it comes to your installation, we go beyond the bare minimum.  Our duct systems feature dampered boots for air balancing, an insulated sheet metal plenum and are performance tested to insure proper sealing so that your hard earned dollars aren't escaping into your attic or crawl space. (photos) 

Once your system has been installed, you can rest assured that we won't disappear.  We will explain how to operate and take care of your new system, answer any questions you might have, and if a problem arises we are only a phone call away.  We also provide annual maintenance services in order to keep your investment running efficiently and extend its life.

Common HVAC Definitions

Air Distribution System - Any system of ducts, plenums and air handling equipment that circulates air within a space or spaces and includes systems made up of one or more air handling units.

Air Handling Unit - A blower or fan used for the purpose of distributing supply air to a room, space or area.

BTU - Abbreviation for British Thermal Unit, which is the quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of one pound (454 g) of water 1°F (0.56°C) (1 BTU = 1055 J).

Coefficient of Performance (COP) - COP is basically a comparison of how much heat the heat pump is producing, compared to how much heat an electric furnace would produce using the same amount of electricity.

Condensing Unit - A specific refrigeration machine combination for a given refrigerant, consisting of one or more power-driven compressors, condensers, liquid receivers (when required), and the regularly furnished accessories.

Damper - A manually or automatically controlled device to regulate draft or the rate of flow of air or combustion gases.

Furnace - A completely self-contained heating unit that is designed to supply heated air to spaces remote from or adjacent to the appliance location.

Heat Pump - A refrigeration system that extracts heat from one substance and transfers it to another portion of the same substance or to a second substance at a higher temperature for a beneficial purpose.

Refrigeration Capacity Rating - Expressed as 1 horsepower (0.75 kW), 1 ton or 12,000 Btu/h (3.5 kW), shall all mean the same quantity.

Return Air - Air removed from an approved conditioned space or location and re-circulated or exhausted.

Return Air System - An assembly of connected ducts, plenums, fittings, registers and grills through which air from the space or spaces to be heated or cooled is conducted back to the supply unit.

Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) - SEER is the measure of a heat pump’s cooling efficiency. Like HSPF, the units are Btu/watt and are averaged over an entire cooling season. At the time of this writing, the current federal Department of Energy (DOE) minimum rating is 10.0. Ratings of 12.0 to 14.0 are obtainable with some high efficiency units. The higher the number, the greater the efficiency. (As of January 1, 2006, the DOE minimum rating will be 13.0.)

Supply Air System - An assembly of connected ducts, plenums, fittings, registers and grills through which air heated or cooled, is conducted from the supply unit to the space or spaces to be heated or cooled.

Ventilation Air - That portion of supply air that comes from the outside (outdoors), plus any re-circulated air that has been treated to maintain the desired quality of air within a designated space.
