"This review is long overdue, but I need to praise Calclimate for their excellent service! Tom and Chris were professional, reliable, and provided quality work. Tom replaced my father’s AC unit last summer on a short notice and provided much needed relief for my father, who was physically impaired at the time. I highly recommend Calclimate and will definitely use them again!"

"Air Tech was great. I would HIGHLY recommend. I initially had 2 other companies besides Air Tech come out for a replacement estimate. Price wise Air Tech was right in the middle but were doing a lot more than the other 2 quotes I got. For example they were changing the copper refrigeration lines, which the other 2 weren’t going to do. When I called the other 2 companies to add the lines in there was going to be an additional $1500-$2000 charge. I’m very pleased with this the work that was done by Air Tech"

"Installation was seedless with Davide the expert installer and his assistant . The engineer Eric who came out the week before actually inspected the roof platform , ducts , room vents and accurate square footage and recommend ½ ton less package which saved me some money too . Great warranty on Goodman unit and their 2 year labor warranty . The staff person Lorraine got me through the finance process and gave me a more than fair price than others and flagged the license of a competing solo guys bid that was actually not his but a plumber I had never heard of . It is worth going with an established solvent company so the warranty is meaningful and a comfort after such a big purpose. On the roof the re piping and vent attaching , and condensation escape tube were very tidily and elegantly done . I hope to do a mini split with them in the future on another unit."

Unless you have advanced HVAC, plumbing, and electrical skills, hiring a pro is worth the investment. Improper installation can strain or even damage the furnace, leading to repairs that dwarf the cost of professional labor. Certified installers deliver a precise, code-compliant setup and help the system run efficiently for years.
Your whole-house humidifier choice comes down to budget and upkeep. Drum models cost less but demand frequent pad changes and vigilant cleaning to avoid mold. Flow-through units carry a higher price tag yet need less maintenance because water drains away rather than sitting in a reservoir. Decide how much ongoing work you’re comfortable handling before you buy.
Whole-house humidifier repairs average $230 but can reach $500, based on unit type, repair complexity, and local labor rates. Systems tied into extensive ductwork or large homes tend to cost more to fix. Routine maintenance, like the occasional pad change, cleaning, and inspection, helps you avoid those higher repair bills and keeps the humidifier working longer.
If indoor humidity regularly falls below 30%, a whole-house humidifier is a smart upgrade. Dry air aggravates allergies, chapped skin, and static, while ENERGY STAR recommends 30% to 50% year-round (30% to 40% in cold climates to curb condensation). If levels climb above that range, consider a whole-house dehumidifier instead.
A well-maintained whole-house humidifier lasts for 10 to 15 years. If yours is pushing a decade and performance drops or energy use climbs, start planning for a replacement. Upgrading boosts efficiency and indoor comfort, and an HVAC pro can confirm whether repairs or a new unit make better financial sense.
A whole-house humidifier is installed directly into your HVAC system and positioned near the furnace or air handler to maximize performance. It connects securely to both the ductwork and plumbing systems, ensuring complete integration. Hiring a professional guarantees a safe, efficient, and permanent installation that protects your system from future operational issues.
