Hurliman Heating is a second generation locally owned family business, in operation since 1956. We pride ourselves on quality work and customer satisfaction. Our knowledgeable staff will go the extra mile to ensure our customers are happy.
"Hurliman installed a furnace for us on 12/20/23 and an air conditioning unit this summer. While the state inspector came to look at the air conditioning unit he also looked at the furnace. Although last winter Hurliman told us the furnace passed inspection after it was installed- it was NEVER INSPECTED and the inspector found three code violations. Our broken air conditioning unit was misdiagnosed by their tech and we spent $1,937 on a so-called fix that didn't work. We were then given an estimate for a $7,604.20 new AC unit which was higher than the price range listed on their website. Although they listed eight different AC manufacturers on their website that should have various price points, they refused to offer us estimates for any other more affordable units because there was so much demand in the summer so they "don't have to". That's not a company with integrity, that's called gouging. We ended up going with one of their competitors who installed a quality air conditioner (one of the same brands listed on Hurliman's website) for almost $2,000 less than what Hurliman was going to charge us."

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.
