"They charged $98 to come give me an estimate for swapping our a shower valve cartridge, which was fine, but the pricing they provided was completely unreasonable, $1,000. They were unwilling to provide any detail for the price. I ended up buy the part myself for $30 and replaced it in 30 minutes."

"When my air conditioner stopped blowing cold air and I couldn't reach my normal A/C repairman, I called Fry based on good reviews on Angi. It was a Monday in August and I expected to be added to a long wait list. But after giving all of my information to the office manager, she told me that someone would be at my house in 30 minutes. Two technicians arrived on time, thoroughly inspected the condenser, diagnosed the problem, discussed options with me, and quickly returned the unit to full operation. They even cleaned the condenser coils to ensure a more productive heat exchange. I'll use Fry for all of my heating, a/c, and plumbing issues in the future."

Thank you for considering Grove and Son! We are a family owned full- service HVAC and Plumbing business and have been serving the community for years. To ensure excellent results, our technicians are equipped with the tools and products to perform inspections and repairs on the spot. Providing great service with reliability is our passion and pride. We would love to have the opportunity to assist you with you next project. Give us a call today for all of your Heating, Cooling and Plumbing needs!

"I have used Grove for many years, and even had them replace on of my failing units. Within the past 18 months, our secondary unit started having problems and Grove came out multiple times to service the unit, explaining that it was losing refrigerant and needed to be replaced. They were always very quick to provide an estimate to replace the unit after charging it. Before replacing the unit we had a different vendor come to give a second opinion, to ensure we were informed and I am so happy that we did. We found that the unit wasn’t only running out of refrigerant, but that it was massively overcharged and that the overpressure safeties had been defeated. I’m not sure if Grove was simply negligent or if they were trying to trick us into paying for a replacement, but I can say that I won’t be using them again. The unit they replaced for us is already dead, and they are quoting us an additional $2k to repair it, putting the total cost for the unit at nearly $10k. All said I have probably paid Grove thousands of dollars and it’s impossible to tell what of that was legitimate and what of it was them running up the bill. I can tell you that at one point they made an emergency visit late at night, spent 15 minutes looking at, and cleaning my compressors, charged me $1000, and then proceeded to text me pictures of them on vacation, presumably enjoying spending the money I had paid them. While I really like Grove, I would suggest you get a second opinion regarding whatever they tell you and that you check your bill very thoroughly."

"I had an absolutely terrible experience with McRae Air Conditioning and Heating. I purchased a home equipped with their HVAC system, and within just five months, the heat stopped working—right in the middle of winter during a snowstorm. My home was freezing at 50°F, so I called for service, which should have been covered under warranty. I scheduled an appointment, and the technician, after being several hours late, went to the wrong address, left a sticker on someone else’s door, and left without even trying to contact me. When I called back, the customer service rep was rude, dismissive, and completely unhelpful. He initially told me the technician was on the way and just 12 miles away—but after another hour of waiting, I called again only to be told that the technician had already “been to my house 2 hours ago” (the wrong one) and left a note. If the rep actually wanted to help, he would have told me this during my first call instead of wasting my time and leaving me sitting in the cold. Not once did the technician call me to confirm the address or check in after knocking on the wrong door. When I expressed my frustration, the rep rudely dismissed my concerns, saying, “Well, I had nothing to do with that,” and then interrupted me with, “Do you still want to rebook or not?” as if I had to stop talking or risk not getting another appointment. This was an emergency call in the middle of winter, and McRae handled it in the most unprofessional, careless, and disappointing way possible. If you’re considering using them for HVAC service, do yourself a favor and go with another company. I’ll update this review after the (hopefully successful) service call and speaking to the manager who was not there at 4 pm on a Wednesday."

Central a/c service or repairs FAQs

An evaporator coil is the chilled indoor coil that pulls heat out of your home’s air. As warm air passes over it, the refrigerant inside absorbs the heat and sends it outdoors, leaving cooler air behind. When the coil wears out or leaks, you’ll notice weaker cooling, higher bills, or even small puddles of refrigerant around the unit.

You’ll know an evaporator coil is on its last legs when airflow turns weak, the air feels lukewarm, or your energy bill suddenly spikes. Short cycling, hissing sounds, and visible refrigerant leaks are other red flags. Acting quickly keeps the repair bill smaller and prevents a full system breakdown, so call an HVAC pro as soon as you spot these issues.

With routine filter changes and a yearly tune-up, most evaporator coils last 10 to 20 years. Heavy summer use, skipped maintenance, or corrosive indoor air can shave years off that span, while a lightly used, well-kept system can reach the upper end. Staying on top of simple upkeep is the best way to protect the coil’s lifespan.
