"Very pleased working with Adams Heating and Cooling. They installed a new central air conditioner system from Rheem. Everyone I spoke with from Amber and Gene in the office, Terry in Sales, and Joey R and Alvin with the installation were friendly and professional."

"I was delighted with the help given to us at our home by William Nichols and his small, efficient crew at A-1 Heating and Cooling Enterprises. He is both very knowledgeable and a clear communicator--a most helpful combination for someone like me who knows so little about this technology. Mr. Nichols researched what we needed at our home--a replacement for a failing central AC system and a new portable AC unit for the upstairs. He offered information and choices about equipment within our financial means that would work for us. Thus we knew costs for equipment and service as fully as possible ahead of time. He and his crew came on schedule, with their tools and our new system and new portable unit--prepared to dismantle the old system and install the new one. By the time his crew left our home that day, the new equipment was working fine; all paperwork was signed; our bill was settled. We were encouraged to reach Mr. Nichols with any follow-up questions or concerns. He offers 24-hour emergency service. And when he discovered dangerous black mold in the old system--hidden and worsening for years because of an error made long ago by the original installer--Mr. Nichols removed the cause of the trouble and also referred us to an excellent system cleaning service for our home--with whom we're already following up. I do recommend Mr. Nichols and A-1 Heating & Cooling Enterprises to anyone investigating an improvement--sudden or planned--for a home. We're relieved here at our home--and we're cool."

"Just too expensive for what you get. Feels like a big company nickel and dime move. I get having a trip charge. Which was $109. But then to have the tech who was great btw (not his fault), but was tentative about fixing the problem because of creating more damage. Another $160 for a simple diagnostic charge, again without fixing the problem. I already knew the diagnosis. So he basically did a Band-Aid fix (greased the Knob) and still charged me over $280+ for what equated to be 10 minutes of work. It was ridiculously high for the service provided. Next time I?m going to an independent, local guy."

"Replaced a leaky gasket in furnace, and performed routine maintenance and service. The techs were knowledgeable and explained the work they were doing, and the reason for the recommended repairs. The techs arrived within the service time window estimate, and gave a "heads up" call about 20 minutes before arrival. They also provide a picture of the tech prior to the appointment time. They put booties over their shoes upon entering your house and leave the work area cleaner than when they arrived. Everyone at Grasshopper, from the office people to the techs, was friendly and professional. They made you feel like they actually cared about customer satisfaction. I did feel that the repair cost, relative to the amount of time spent, was on the high side, although I really have no reference to compare to. I would definitely use them again, and recommend that you consider calling them for service and/or repair."

"The owner of the company, Jeremy Morin, was prompt and the furnance was cleaned in a timely manner. Also, he followed up with an email advising me on quotes for a new furnance as well. I will definitely continue my services with this company, and will be referring his business to my family and friends as well. I would like to mention Jeremy is a Veteran as well, and offers discounts to service men and women. Thank you again for a job well done."

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

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.
