"They came out late for an appointment that had already been rescheduled on their end and ended up giving us no real ideas for design and re-do on our backyard. Then they never returned calls or emails. Never got an estimate. Complete waste of time. Disappointing."

"Replacing a 15-year-old HVAC system in Sun City Festival is a big decision, and choosing the right installer is paramount. I received three quotes from well-known, established HVAC companies, but ultimately, I chose EHR Nguyen, and I couldn't be happier. What set them apart was the direct communication and expertise of the person actually doing the installation. Unlike dealing with salespeople and customer service reps at larger companies, EHR Nguyen provided upfront explanations about every aspect of the installation process. This transparency was incredibly comforting. It's often said that the installation is more important than the equipment itself, and EHR Nguyen exemplified this perfectly. They installed a 5-ton Goodman, two-speed, R32 HVAC system with meticulous professionalism. Every step of the process was not only explained to me in detail but also documented with pictures and videos. This level of thoroughness and attention to detail is truly rare. Beyond the exceptional workmanship, the cost was also a significant factor. The quotes I received from the larger companies were between $4,000 and $5,400 more for the same equipment and warranty! EHR Nguyen provided incredible value without compromising on quality. If you're in need of HVAC repair, replacement, or installation, I wholeheartedly recommend EHR Nguyen. Their expertise, transparent communication, and dedication to a flawless installation make them an outstanding choice. Don't let fancy marketing and big company names fool you – the quality of the installation is what truly matters, and EHR Nguyen delivers that in spades. Jerry"

Running a window air conditioner to cool a small room often costs less than $4 per day, making it cheaper than central air for single-room cooling. However, central air might be more efficient if you're using multiple window units or need to cool a space larger than 1,000 square feet. Choosing the right size AC is crucial—a unit that's too big or small can waste energy and increase costs.
Window AC units can use a significant amount of energy. These units use about 12 to 17 kilowatt-hours per day, significantly more than a refrigerator's one to 1.5 kilowatt-hours per day. To keep your energy costs down, run your window AC only when necessary, keep doors closed to contain the cool air, regularly clean filters and coils, and seal any gaps around the unit to prevent cold air from escaping.
Inexpensive air conditioner units are often not worth it. Low-cost products from popular brands like General Electric, LG, Whirlpool, or Frigidaire may be a reasonable investment. However, putting a small, budget-friendly unit in a large room wastes energy and shortens the life span of the AC since it has to draw more power and work much harder to cool the space. The unit will consume more energy and stress the motor and other internal parts, resulting in early breakdown and costly repairs.
The best deals on window AC units come during the fall when businesses slash prices to clear out old inventory. You can also speak with your local AC installer, who may get you a good deal on a window AC unit since they have access to trade pricing. You can also watch for discontinued products and flash sales in your area.
Window AC repair costs between $110 and $390, with most people paying around $250. Parts cost between $2 and $150, with the rest going toward labor, at around $30 per hour. The occasional one-off repair or a routine AC tuneup cost $75 to $200. Servicing can keep your AC running in good condition for several more years before you need to pay for a replacement unit.
Window AC units last eight to 10 years when installed and maintained correctly. High-quality models last up to 20 years with proper care and routine maintenance. The unit’s longevity depends on its construction quality, regular cleaning, and electrical safety inspections. Keeping the filters and coils clean and addressing minor repairs promptly extends its effective performance and ensures reliable cooling.
