"I have used this company twice. I first gave them a call over the summer for an emergency central AC issue. They were able to quickly come out, ID the problem and fix it the same day for a very reasonable price. They did so well that I called them again a couple of weeks ago when I tried to flick my furnace on for the first time and nothing happened. When it rains, it pours, right? Once again, Air Max was able to quickly respond and found a simple sensor problem and the whole visit took less than an hour and cost me under $100. I feel like I would have been out at least a grand calling another company. I TRUST these guys!"

When Glenmont Heating & Air Conditioning was founded 28 years ago, we had one goal in mind; providing area families, and businesses with solutions that fit their lifestyles and needs, as well as their wallets. If you have any questions about heating and air conditioning maintenance, a new HVAC system, or are looking into installing a more energy efficient system, Glenmont Heating and Air is the solution to your needs.
"Summary: Company charged me $1000+ for 2 separate service visits that did not fix my AC unit; technicians and Operations Manager are not truthful about work done; Operatiins Mngr will tell you find another HVAC company when you express dissatisfaction ….I contacted Glenmont Heating and Air Conditioning since my AC unit was not dispensing any cold air. Thermometer was set to 68° however the unit temperature was reading 77-80° (note this was the week of extreme heat wave). On 21Jun2024: Glenmont technician Roderick performed a service call. I spoke to him via phone after the call to which he told me he added refrigerant to the system. This did not fix the issue and the unit continued to not dispense cold air with the thermometer reaching 77-80° despite being set to 68°. I was charged $119 for this work. Operating Manager Tim Schindle is contradicting what the tech said and claims Roderick did not add any refrigerant. I again called Glenmont HVAC for a second service appointment. This technician claimed the coil needed to be cleaned. The second technician (Eric) then falsely reported on his report the unit temperature dropped to 68° when he left when I have photographic evidence showing the temperature in the high 70s. I waited about 24hrs as instructed for the thermostat to drop and it never did and the unit continued to not dispense cool air. I then called a supervisor (don’t recall name) who essentially told me due to the extreme temperatures everyone was experiencing HVAC issues and did not recommend any follow up service. I then had several back/forth emails with Operations manger Tim Schindler to notify him after 2 separate service visits, my air conditioning was not fixed. In the end he told me, and I quote “my system is old…we don’t know the maintenance history…it is best for both of us to find another HVAC company. He did however bill me $964 for the second service visit, which did not fix my issue. I ended up having to call another HVAC company who diagnosed the problem as a compression failure/ replaced the unit and now have cold air blowing. The second HVAC company did not understand why the 2nd technician from Glenmont Heating/Air Conditioning was changing coils and said this was not necessary to do. Second HVAC company showed me the reading of the compressor unit to which I could see no charge was registering, essentially the compressor was no longer working which was the root cause of my issue. In conclusion, I’m disappointed with Glenmont HVAC and feel they sent incompetent technicians who falsified their work. When I complained to the company and expressed my disappointment with their work (or lack there of) they told me to seek other HVAC company without fixing my AC unit but charged me $1000+. Poor business acumen and highly unethical company that needs to be held accountable for cheating customers and not performing quality work."

It's often worth replacing your old thermostat with a newer model that can enhance your home's comfort and energy efficiency. Upgrading to a programmable or smart thermostat can save you up to $200 per year on energy bills. Plus, smart thermostats offer convenient features like remote control and learning capabilities, making your home more comfortable and easier to manage.
Signs of a bad thermostat include your HVAC system not turning on when it's supposed to or failing to reach the desired temperature. If the thermostat's display is blank or not functioning properly, it could be malfunctioning. Another indicator is the HVAC system running continuously without shutting off or cycling on and off too frequently. You might also notice uneven temperatures throughout your home, with some rooms being too warm or too cold. These issues suggest that the thermostat is failing and may need repair or replacement to ensure your HVAC system operates efficiently.
A thermostat should last between 10 to 20 years, depending on its quality and how well it's maintained. Over time, dust, wiring issues, and general wear can affect its performance. Even if a thermostat is still functioning after 10 years, you might choose to replace it to take advantage of newer energy-saving technologies and smart home integrations. Upgrading to a modern thermostat can improve efficiency, offer more control over your home's climate, and potentially lower energy bills.
The number of thermostats you need depends on your home's size, layout, and heating and cooling zones. In a standard single-zone HVAC system, one thermostat controls the temperature for the entire home. However, larger homes or those with multiple floors might benefit from multiple thermostats linked to a multi-zone HVAC system. This setup can offer better comfort and energy efficiency: It lets you customize the temperature in different areas, so you're only heating or cooling the spaces you're using.
Replacing a thermostat typically takes a professional technician about one to two hours to complete. If you're swapping out an existing thermostat for a similar model with compatible wiring, the process can be done in less than an hour. However, installing a new thermostat that requires additional wiring, such as a smart thermostat, or moving the thermostat to a new location can extend the time to two hours or more. Complex installations may also involve cutting into drywall or integrating with other home systems, which can add to the duration.
There are a few things that can cause your home thermostat to fail. The most simple one is age and cleanliness. Dirt, grease, dust, and other small particles can clog sensors and cause malfunctions in readings. You may also have a failing power supply and loose connections, and the simplest cause is that it isn't installed in the right place in your home so it can't properly sense air temperature. Repairing a thermostat costs around $210.
