"My furnace stopped working this past weekend.  It's November and cold but not bitterly cold yet, thankfully.  I have space heaters so I haven't been too cold but was hoping to get my furnace looked at either Monday or Tuesday.  Anytime I need work done at my house, I come to Angie's List first.  I always start with providers who have A ratings and read reviews.  I read a few reviews for Advanced Air that said Bob did extra work or put in extra time and did not charge them.  That impressed me so I sent an email to schedule an appointment for Monday.  I didn't hear anything from him Monday morning so I called another provider who said the earliest they could come out would be Monday evening between 5pm - 7pm.  That was not ideal but at this point I was tired of being cold.  To my surprised Bob called me around noon.  He apologized for not calling me sooner saying his email was not working properly so he called Angie's List to get my info.  I explained the problem and he said he could be out within the hour.  Wonderful!  He was there at 12:30.  He got right to work, cleaned my very dirty dinosaur of a furnace, explained to me that he needed to leave for a few minutes to get a part, he came back with the part, and had it working again in about a total time of one hour.  Bob was efficient, clean, and a pleasure to work with.  I will definitely use his services again and will recommend him to everyone I know!!

"I received prompt service when setting up my appointment. Gentleman came promptly at time specified and gave a thorough estimate on what it would cost for system to be fixed. I also received options on how I could repair system with different money levels and the differences of warrantees. I was extremely impressed at how quickly my home was serviced."

FAQs for central a/c service or repair projects in Hopkins-park, IL

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.
