"The technician cleaned and calibrated the air conditioner. He pointed out that we had a part that was aging and could possibly fail at any time. He asked if we wanted to replace it. We told him to do what he needed to do to get the air conditioner working at full capacity. He quoted a price of $132. After checking our account, he returned to tell us that the part is covered under the 10 year warranty. He was very thorough and meticulous with his work.
We have dealt with Duggan for 8 years and had our unit serviced spring and fall each year. The office always communicates with the customer and let you know when the technician is on the way. During the eight years, all the technicians were knowledgeable, professional and  are always very polite. They wear shoe covers when in the house and leave their work area clean.
Highly recommend Duggan.

"Carl was responsive, friendly, knowledgeable, and honest! I was able to get a same-day AC repair, and he provided 3 options and explained each of them thoroughly. He was truthful and not willing to quickly offer the most expensive repair, which my family appreciates given we have been serviced by several other companies in the past. I am pleased with the service and highly recommend Boyd's!"

"Chris was the technician that came out and did a wonderful job very informative. The unit was low on freon and while we were looking at the unit fan motor went out and he was able to get a new one next day. He vacuumed the unit out of all the leaves and clean the fins and then actually put away some of my tools and hoses. Chris went above and beyond I would highly recommend."

"Josh and his team are best in class in Greensboro. Personable, honest and prompt. My in-laws were in town and my ac stopped working so I needed to get it repaired quick. Josh came over around 9pm to add Freon and recharge my 5 ton 15 year old unit. I recommend this company for any hvac, plumbing and electrical needs if you are in Greensboro."

FAQs for central a/c service or repair projects in Advance, NC

Coils work to absorb heat into the refrigerant that flows through them, moving heat from one location to another. For air conditioning, the evaporator coil inside the air handler in your home absorbs heat. It then transfers the heat outside to the condenser coil, where it releases it. The opposite process happens for heat pumps. When the coils get dusty and dirty, it reduces how well these components work.

Skip regular cleanings, and dirt, debris, and mineral deposits will blanket your evaporator and condenser coils. When that happens, the coils can’t shed heat efficiently, so the system works harder and your energy bill climbs. Over time, overheating strains the compressor and can trigger a full breakdown—an avoidable repair that often costs far more than a simple annual cleaning.

AC coil cleaning is an investment that pays for itself in the benefits it provides. Dust‑caked coils force your AC to run longer, so you spend more on electricity and rack up extra wear. A quick professional cleaning restores efficiency, trims monthly bills, and eases strain on expensive parts. Over the long haul, that small yearly fee delays pricy repairs and stretches the unit’s lifespan, making coil cleaning one of the smartest HVAC tune‑ups you can schedule.

Watch for higher electric bills, rooms that stay warm no matter how low you set the thermostat, or an AC system that runs nonstop. Extra humidity and frost on the coils are also red flags. Catching these clues early lets you schedule a quick cleaning before the system overworks itself and triggers an expensive breakdown.

Your AC cleaning technician starts by shutting off the power to the unit and removing the faceplate. Compressed air and a vacuum hose blast away loose debris, followed by a coil-safe, no-rinse cleaner that dissolves stubborn grime. After the solution has soaked in, the professional wipes the fins, reassembles the housing, and restores power, leaving the system ready to cool at peak efficiency.
