Every technician that has come to my home is friendly and knowledgeable. Craig Clark responds via email within a day or less. Top quality work with terrific follow up. They are coming back for my annual stem check in June."

"MTS was quick to respond to our call and evaluate our system. While they found nothing that required repair right now, they did help us understand the timeline for potentially replacing our system. My only disappointment is that I haven't received the replacement quote they said they would provide."

Customers say: Terrific value

"I had a fantastic experience with Rodney, the HVAC expert! He skillfully repaired all three mini split units in my home. Not only did he promptly identify the issues, but his proficiency in fixing them was impressive. Rodney's professionalism and friendly demeanor made the whole process smooth and stress-free. I'm extremely satisfied with his work, and I highly recommend him for any HVAC needs."

"The entire central air conditioning job was completed under the allotted time. Peter and his team were extremely professional, knowledgeable, thorough, left no mess behind, and their price for this job was very reasonable. I was so impressed that I scheduled him to go out and replace my daughter/son-in-law's two oil fired furnaces in the same week. I would highly recommend All Phase to anyone looking to upgrade or replace their mechanicals. Great job Peter. Thank you for changing my outlook on contractors, who many times, never keep their promises, and provide sub-par work! Thank you!!"

"Excellent service, very fast response to my request for service, picked up laptop, diagnosed issues. Initially thought it was an OS update issue but the hard drive had failed along with other components (including 'CPU). Because other components were involved, a new solid state hard drive was put into a laptop with a working processor - same type CPU as in the failed unit. The laptop was repaired and returned in less than a week. This company picked up and dropped off the laptop (driving from Huntsville, AL (about 60-70 minutes)-- great service in this covid environment. I would recommend this company to my family./friends and will use again."

"This is my 3rd (or 4th?) experience with Northern Lights Electric, and it certainly won't be my last. They arrived on time (7am), worked quickly and efficiently, and were done much sooner than I expected. They also cleaned up when they were done. Steven was also very willing to answer questions and explain some things, as well as give me information on some potential future services I was considering. I just requested an appointment for a ceiling fan installation and recessed lighting. Definitely my go-to for any electrical issues."

FAQs for central a/c service or repair projects in Portsmouth, RI

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.
