"Scheduling was a breeze. Technician - Tim - on time and completed service in an efficient manner. Tim is knowledgeable of the workings of all systems and quick to point out things to keep an eye out for. He has worked on our systems for several years. Based on our experience with Climatemakers, they were the first one that my son called when his HVAC needed work and ultimately replacement,"

"We met Tim the owner at the Homeowner show at the Convention Center. Surprised at how personable he was. Cynthia, who handles customer service was very amiable and eager to help. Ryan, the service representative came out and gave us an estimate of a new HVAC system, since ours had died at the colder time this year.we accepted the bid and Ryan came out started the prep work. System was installed in one day. Ryan came out the next day to check everything. We concluded our business and we have wonderful heat. I cannot sing their praises enough. I would recommend them to anyone."

"Dana and his team did a great job preparing our house for move in. The team thoroughly cleaned the dryer duct line that had not been properly cleaned for several years; they cleaned out a high fire risk. They also installed two high quality vent guards to prevent birds and other critters from accessing the dryer duct and first floor bathroom exhaust duct. The team also cleaned the HVAC ducts on our house. They identified some mold in a few of the lines and replaced one of the worst lines. They also pointed out a couple of issues with the HVAC transitions that had tears in the flex line that exposed insulation and some mold on the interior insulation in a metal transition duct for the upstairs HVAC system; both were recommended for replacement or repair by a certified HVAC mechanic. Upon completion, they back-fogged each duct, replaced all vents (28 in total), filled gaps between the metal vent and ceilings on the second floor (should have been done when the house was constructed in 2003), and sanitized both HVAC zones. The mold, issues with the transitions and gaps between the metal vent openings and ceiling holes were not note by the home inspector prior to closing, and were not disclosed by the previous homeowner. Total cost for all the work was around $3300. While the price might seem high, the quality and thoroughness of the work completed, the professionalism and efficiency of the crew, and the large volume of work (cleaned 28 vent lines plus the the main trunk for each of two zones) was very reasonable for the time required and the labor quality. In our prior home, I used another local company who advertises through ValuePak to clean the ducts. Following their service I had issues with collapsed HVAC duct lines afterward that caused icing on the AC unit. Initially, the other company was significantly cheaper, but their work was shoddy, their technician was not as careful and diligent, and ended up costing about the same on a smaller house due to the problems caused by the cleaning. I highly recommend Dana and Airight. I will definitely be calling on them again for dryer vent line and duct cleaning in the future."

"Fantastic! This company has an unbelievably great work ethic and the desire to do things the right way! This was a huge job and they finished it on time (actually a half day early) and on the quoted price. The crews (at times we had 3 crews here) and supervisor were incredible craftsmen ... knowledgeable, approachable and a pleasure to have had in our house for 5 days. Our HVAC system is now absolutely TOP NOTCH! Could not be happier ..."

"Service and pricing was phenomenal. Had two other quotes from other companies and both companies told me I needed a whole new unit and was gonna cost me around $6000. Called for a second opinion and turns out didn't need a new unit after all simple fix that cost me around $150 and now I have heat again. Would recommend this company to anyone, very thorough on their diagnostic which saved me tremendously. Cant thank them enough."

"The A/C at our rental property was running, but not keeping the house cool. I called five different A/C companies that had A ratings on Angie's list and asked how much they charged for the service fee and how much they charged per pound for R22. Three of the companies including K&J) told me their rates directly and two told me that they "bundle" the R22 cost with labor costs. I appreciated that K&J were up front with their costs and they had the best rates. The technicians showed up on time and were very professional. They immediately checked the unit outside and the air handler inside. Both were frozen up with ice. They turned off the unit and we waited for it to thaw out. While waiting the tech's (Cory and Mark) were very jovial and pleasant to talk to. Once the unit thawed out they hooked up the gages and diagnosed the problem as low refrigerant. They showed me on the gage were the correct level should be and where my unit was. They kept me informed the whole time and were very thorough. They ended up having to clean the coil in order to get the unit to take in the refrigerant. They told me the cost before they did it and asked me if I wanted them to proceed. Once the cioils were clean they added 1lb of R22 (in .5 lb increments). Then they went inside and checked the vent with a laser thermometer to make sure the temp was in the proper range. I was able to pay credit right there on the spot and they gave me a discount for using Angie's list. I would highly recommend K&J Mechanical. They did excellent work on time and at a great price. There was even a follow up call to see if I was satisfied with the service.

"For the last two years, I have signed a yearly contract with Sweetlands to do a twice-a-year check on my heating and air-conditioning service as well as On-Demand Gas Water Heater.....fall check before I use my heating system and spring check before I use my AC system. Each time, the service associate has been on time, courteous, friendly and very knowledgeable when answering any questions I may have. I've even had Judy show up to perform the bi-annual check once! As I mentioned previously, I had a bad experience with another company that led to me switching to Sweetlands. On the first check done with Sweetlands, the service representative found a flaw in the previous company's work that could have resulted in a dangerous event and was definitely costing me more money from an operational standpoint. So, the switch to Sweetlands literally paid for itself with my first visit! I definitely believe that Sweetlands is a great local business, and I intend to continue my association with them in the coming years. My annual maintenance contract covering twice yearly cleaning, maintenance and check of all three of my units (Heating, AC, and On-Demand Gas Water Heater) is $374/year."

FAQs for central air cleaner service projects in Norfolk, VA

For individuals with respiratory sensitivities, whole-house filtration systems can significantly reduce exposure to common allergens throughout the entire living space. Systems with higher MERV ratings capture more microscopic irritants, such as pollen, pet dander, and dust mites, that trigger allergic reactions. The comprehensive approach addresses air quality in all rooms simultaneously, unlike portable units that treat limited areas. Though the initial investment is substantial, many allergy sufferers find the consistent symptom relief justifies the expense.

Maintenance requirements vary by system type and manufacturer specifications. Most systems benefit from regular professional inspections to ensure optimal performance and reliability. Filter replacement schedules depend on your specific system design, household conditions, and manufacturer guidelines. Regular maintenance helps preserve system efficiency, extends equipment lifespan, and maintains effective air purification. Following the maintenance schedule outlined in your owner's manual provides the best guidance for your specific system.

Energy consumption varies depending on the system type and usage patterns. Some components, particularly electronic air cleaners or UV light systems, require additional electricity. However, many modern systems are designed with energy efficiency in mind. Clean, well-maintained HVAC systems operate more efficiently than those struggling with dust buildup. Regular filter maintenance and selecting equipment of the appropriate size help minimize potential increases in energy consumption.

Some filtration technologies effectively reduce household odors while also removing particles. Systems incorporating activated carbon components or specialized media can effectively capture many odor-causing compounds from sources such as cooking, pets, or household products. Electronic air cleaners may help neutralize certain odor molecules through ionization processes. While filtration helps reduce odors circulating through your home, addressing the underlying sources remains important for comprehensive odor management.
