"It was great! The sales person came to our home and discussed with us what we needed. Our old system was over 20years old. Gave us a great price and installation was quick. We have had no problems since the system was installed and we have them come annually to just check things out. We highly recommend Climatemakers. They have honest and hardworking employees. They have been in business 65+ years which says a lot about the quality of their business."

"Professional, customer-service oriented, answered questions and explained the problem clearly, gave us several options for the plumbing repair -- Jammal Lindsey was the plumbing technician who came to diagnose the problem and give us the options. This review is for that phase of the project."

"Technician & Comfort Advisor were both very professional and courteous... Initial Technician (Nathan Reedy) was very knowledgeable in diagnosing the problem... And then suggested system replacement due to cost of repair, age of system, & availability of future parts... Opted for system replacement, over repair... Comfort Advisor (Joseph Kansco) was also knowledgeable, as well... And guided us through the process of selecting a quality/best value system that best fit our needs... While, at a week in, I am well satisfied w/ the product & the quality of work, I did not provide a "5-Star" rating because, both the pricing of the repair & the pricing of the system replacement seem a bit high... Even w/ discounts applied, replacement cost was still on the "high-end"..."

"Commonwealth Comfort was amazing from start to finish! Bo Juel, the owner, was prompt in giving us an estimate at an awesome price. He was very knowledgeable about the different HVAC and air purification systems, and he was patient with all of our questions. We chose a Bosch system and we are thrilled with its performance. Bo kept us updated on when the equipment would be ready to install and answered all of our questions. They removed the old system and installed the new system quickly. Bo and his team were conscientious, efficient, professional, and courteous. We will be using this company to maintain our HVAC in the future. We highly recommend Commonwealth Comfort!"

FAQs for central a/c service or repair projects in Virginia Beach, VA

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.
