"Service man arrived as expected and performed the annual maintenance of the air conditioning system. The work was thorough and it was something that was familiar to me as I used to do in my younger years. With heavy use of airconditioning in the summer in CA, this is important and something we do every year.

"I'd like to take a moment to share with you my experience with Air Care Heating and Cooling who recently installed a new heating furnace replacing our original heater from 1976. After interviewing four reputable local companies in San Diego I chose aircraft based on excellent reviews on Google and Angie's list. Mr Michael Santana (Owner and founder) offered very affordable pricing compared to others not forsaking the quality of/ furnace unit, warranty and exemplary customer care /service. The installation process was flawless. Mr Santana's and staff demonstrated outstanding professional performance, effective communication to answer questions and concerns even adding extras like replacing events and the job completion in a timely manner making the whole process from beginning to end a truly"

"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exceptional Service from Airtime Plumbing, Heating, & Air! I cannot recommend Airtime Plumbing, Heating, & Air highly enough! From the initial service call to the completion of the job, my experience was absolutely five-star. We had an urgent issue with our furnace acting up just as the cold weather hit, and they responded with incredible speed and professionalism. The technician David arrived promptly, was extremely courteous, and clearly explained what was wrong with our unit. He didn't just fix the problem; he took the time to show me what maintenance steps I could take to keep the system running efficiently. What Made Them Stand Out: Punctuality & Communication: They called ahead, arrived exactly when they said they would, and kept me informed throughout the process. Expert Knowledge: The diagnosis was fast and accurate. They fixed the problem right the first time. Fair Pricing: The final cost was competitive and exactly what was quoted, with no hidden fees or upselling. Cle"

"Unfortunately, I needed an HVAC company to fix my AC during a heat wave. Most companies were 5+ days out before they could even diagnose our problem. Called 3 highly visible companies, from their marketing, who said they wouldn't even work on our unit. I went with a referral from a neighbor, mistake. This company took a week to get to us then the tech went MIA for 5 days with no contact when he said he would be back tomorrow with parts. Won't mention their name as there could have been multiple uncontrollable reasons why. I then did a lot of research on different companies across multiple review websites (including Angies) and Excel Air stood out. Once I spoke to the office staff, great experience, they had a tech out to our home in 2 days with our problem diagnosed. Our tech's name was Lucas who was efficient with his time, talked me through what was going on and gave us our estimate which we were happy to move forward with. Lucas fixed our problem in under 20 minutes. Me being me, I watched each step and saw the quality work. He even put in a fuse to ensure the same problem didn't happen again to our transformer. Once he fixed everything and got our new thermostat power, our AC has been working perfectly ever since. I'm now a really big supporter of Excel Air. Their office staff worked with our insurance company after hours and actually updated us (what company does this these days) the entire way. I can't tell you how impressed I was from their office, Lucas and most of all their successful resolution of our problems with our AC. Thank you Excel Air!"

"We recently had Same Day Heating and Air Conditioning come to our house to inspect our furnaces before turning the furnaces on during the cooler winter months and they discovered that both units had gas leaks. The system is 20 years old so it wasnâ t a complete surprise although we had hoped to put off replacing them for about 1-2 years. The technician/ inspector was knowledgeable, thorough and professional in showing us pictures of the worn, damaged furnaces (2). He explained the options for repairs and replacement as well as pricing considerations. In the end we decided to have them install 2 new furnaces and 2 new heat pumps to replace our old AC units. The installation was scheduled and completed within a short time frame and done with as little disruption to our home and family as possible. Efficient and neat in their work, I can happily recommend Same Day Heating and AC. I am very reassured knowing that my furnaces and heat pumps can effectively and safely heat and cool our home for our family. Peace of mind is priceless when it comes to protecting your family."

"I obtained several quotes for replacing or repairing an old furnace and a/c condenser unit. Each provider had a slightly different opinion on how much of the system should be replaced and what capacity unit should be used. Carini's prices were in line with other providers, but Kurt, who gave the estimate, seems the most knowledgable. He did appropriate follow up after the install. Would use them again. "

Converting from an oil furnace to an electric furnace isn't a simple swap—the oil system needs to be completely removed before installing the electric furnace. You'll need a full electric system installation, but you might be able to reuse existing ductwork if it's up to current safety standards. You’ll need to budget for a new electric furnace installation, which costs between $1,800 and $6,200, including professional removal, proper disposal, and safe installation of the new system.
Electric furnaces are 100% efficient at converting electricity into heat. However, some of that heat can be lost as it travels through your home's ductwork or escapes through poorly insulated areas. That's why regular duct maintenance and proper home insulation are important to maximize your furnace's efficiency and reduce heat loss, ensuring consistent warmth and lower energy costs.
With proper maintenance, an electric furnace can last anywhere from 20 to 30 years, outlasting the average gas furnace's lifespan of 15 to 20 years. To keep your electric furnace running efficiently, schedule regular cleanings, tighten connections, and have inspections done before winter arrives. With routine maintenance, you’ll ensure consistent, safe heating for years to come.
The size of the electric furnace you need depends on factors like your home's square footage, climate, and insulation quality. As a general guideline, those who live in warmer climates should multiply their square footage by 30 to 35 BTUs, while those in cooler areas should multiply it by 50 to 60 BTUs.
Consulting with an HVAC professional can help you determine the exact size that's right for your home.
An electric furnace works by converting electricity into heat using high-resistance heating elements. A blower then pushes the warm air through your home's ductwork, distributing heat evenly throughout your space. Since there's no combustion involved, electric furnaces eliminate the risks associated with gas furnaces and provide consistent, reliable heating when properly installed.
An electric furnace uses between 40 and 80 kilowatts per day to heat your home. The exact amount it uses depends on factors like your home's size, insulation, and overall energy requirements. Larger homes or those with poor insulation use more energy than smaller, well-insulated spaces. A professional furnace assessment can help confirm the ideal unit size for your needs.
