"After dealing with a large Capital Region company for 20 years; I am glad I made the switch to Veritas Heating and Cooling! I wanted to replace my aging Central A/C unit and furnace BEFORE unexpected major problems/expenses arose that would put me in a position where I would need to --rush-- into getting estimates/new equipment installed. I found Veritas Heating and Cooling through careful research on HomeAdvisor and Angies List. What finally convinced me to get an estimate from Veritas was a neighborhood recommendation I received while asking for an HVAC company referral through the -NextDoor- neighborhood social media website. I contacted several area companies and received estimates, but after meeting Adam I was convinced his company was the one I would go with. Adam is very professional and honest. He did not try to --upsell-- me with features and equipment that I did not need. He asked me key questions and recommended the Heil equipment level I needed based on my answers. Adam is a competent, experienced craftsman, and his prices are fair. His competency and experience were evident throughout the installation and equipment start up process. Adam was very efficient and he has an excellent work ethic. Adam was willing to work with me with the installation time frame as I was not ready to install for 4 months after signing my contract. Adam --locked in-- my pricing with a 50% deposit, and performed my installation as per my schedule (there was a 10% price hike coming at the beginning of 2019). Veritas Heating and Cooling is now my go-to HVAC Company! I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone."

We have used ASTAR for many years to service our central air.  On June 30th we had a bad thunderstorm that sent a power surge through our home and fried our central air, whole house fan and some other outlets.  ASTAR came and we were originally told that it would be approx. 3-4 weeks and take 2 days to install the new system because they were all booked up. We were ok with that since the weather for the next couple of weeks was going to be in the high 70's. 

The following week the weather changed and it was going to be warmer.  Knowing we had no central air ASTAR dropped off at our home, 2 brand new window air conditioners! WOW!  They would have dropped off as many as we wanted but really only needed them for 2 of the bedrooms. Don't know of any other company that would have done that!  Now the following week (7/13) we had totally forgot the we had relatives from out of state coming to spend a week with us (7/22-7/29) and the weather was going to be brutally hot!  We called ASTAR and explained our situation and are happy to report that they came on Saturday, July 18th and did the entire installation in one day!  They put an extra guy on so they could get the job done!  It has been over a month now of hot and humid weather and the system has been on since they installed it! We have noticed that this new system does a better job at keeping the house cool then the old one which was only 10yrs old.  We highly recommend this company and will continue to use them for our preventive maintenance.  We would have given them a rating of A++ if it was offered!

"The service man was great! He spent about an hour cleaning and adjusting. He explained everything he did.
But I had a slight hassle over the price I was quoted on the phone.
There was a $20.00 off the service advertised on Sure Temps website. When I asked the person scheduling the appointment about it she said that the price of the service would be $140.35 including tax minus the $20.00 for a total of $120.35. When I tried to pay the service man the $120.35 he said it was supposed to be $140.35, he called his company and the person he talked to said $140.35 unless I printed out the coupon. I don't have a printer, it didn't look like a coupon, and the service scheduling person did not say it was a coupon that I needed to print out. I called the office myself and mentioned that I got the name of their company from Angie's list and immediately they accepted the $120.35.
I think the service provided for the price was very good, but I don't like to haggle over prices once I have been given a quote.

"Scheduling was quick and easy, they arrived when expected, work went very well, no attempt to sell additional (unneeded) services. No question but that I will call them the next time I need a plumber."

"Our experience with Climate Chief was excellent. We received 5 bids from 5 different contractors, and two energy audits (including one from Climate Chief). By far the most thoughtful, thorough, and well explained bid came from Climate Chief. Gary went to great lengths to understand our home, our needs, desires and plans. He was extremely knowledgeable in the field of building science and could explain in easy terms how the plan they prepared would work from a scientific perspective. In addition, he laid out at least 3 different options for proceeding that would provide different cost and performance trade-offs and was always patient and available to discuss the different benefits of each approach. They were never pushy, always available via phone or email and highly professional. Once it came time to perform the work the crew of Climate Chief executed their job with the utmost professionalism. Always punctual, polite and respectful of our space. Everyday they cleaned up after themselves and made sure to secure our space with protective coverings so that nothing was damaged or affected by construction debris/dust.
There were several items that came up during the job that needed adjusting and they made the changes quickly and without adding to the original bid. In addition, they took it upon themselves to let us know of some other maintenance issues they saw with our home that we appreciated knowing about. The job foreman also did a thorough inspection of the work at the end and found some items that were not tied up as well as he expected so he made sure that all remaining punch list items were performed by the crew. We noted this and appreciated it. The final work was more than we could have hoped for. It looks great, and performed better than we expected. We saw a 40% reduction in our heating costs from the insulation project so far this winter. Our comfort level has increased dramatically. We expect this project to pay for itself in savings in as little as 7 years. We would not hesitate to recommend The Climate Chief to anyone and look forward to working with them again.

FAQs for central a/c service or repair projects in Schoharie, NY

A condenser fan motor is a crucial part of your air conditioner that prevents the compressor from overheating. It pulls heat from your AC unit to cool the refrigerant moving through the condenser coils. This allows your system to blow cool air and keeps everything running smoothly.

The most common causes of AC fan motor failure include loss of lubricant in the system due to overheating and a rusted or leaking run capacitor. Poor lubrication can also cause failure in the belt drive, which may impact the AC fan motor. Weather and electrical components can also affect your AC. For example, a storm could send water into your motor windings and damage the internal components.

Air conditioner fan motors last about 12 years on average, though they can last longer if maintained well. This includes keeping them clean and cooled as needed with annual air conditioner checkups. Routine maintenance is essential to catch AC fan issues early. An HVAC inspection can cost between $70 and $500, while AC cleaning services may range from $100 to $400.

A broken AC fan motor may need replacement because this part usually can’t be repaired. Several things indicate it’s time to replace your AC fan motor, including buzzing noises, a constantly running fan, unusually high energy bills, or an aging system. If you notice these signs, call an HVAC pro for help before the faulty motor starts to strain other parts of the AC system.

There are clear warning signs of a bad AC fan motor, including unusual interruptions in the fan operation. The motor might be malfunctioning if you hear weird noises like grinding or rattling or if the fan continues to spin when the unit is off. These indicators compromise your AC’s cooling performance and increase your energy costs. Addressing these issues immediately by contacting a trusted HVAC professional prevents further damage and safeguards your HVAC's efficiency.

Replacing your AC fan motor takes a professional one to four hours. The technician will start by assessing your system and safely removing the damaged motor. If a new part needs to be ordered, it might take a few days. Once the part is available, your pro will install it properly and make sure your system is running smoothly.
