"An older model gas furnace quit working in a rental house I own. Tony came out and had it running fine in no time. I like that he did not try to sell me on a new unit that I did not need or want."

"We recently had the pleasure of working with Climatemakers for HVAC duct Replacement at our home, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From start to finish, the team was professional, knowledgeable, and dedicated to ensuring top-notch service. Mike and his team were amazing! The technicians arrived promptly and efficiently installed the ducts during the estimated timelines. They also took care to explain the process every step of the way. Their attention to detail was evident, and they were very respectful and kind during the entire process, which we really appreciated. Not only did Climatemakers deliver on their promise of quality workmanship, but they also exceeded our expectations with their exceptional customer service. They were friendly, courteous, and genuinely invested in ensuring our satisfaction. I highly recommend Climatemakers to anyone in need of HVAC services. Their expertise, professionalism, and commitment to customer satisfaction are truly commendable. Thank you, Climatemakers, for a job well done!"

"From Catlin (who is awesome) that setup my service call & stayed in touch with us every step of the way from working with my home warranty to getting the AC/Heater Unit put in she is the best. This is something we were dealing with since Oct22 but M&J Services wasted no time - the service we received from M&J Services was outstanding. The techs Tray & Mike that came out to work on my Home AC/Heater Unit & was professional & showed concern about getting the job done & done right. If I could give M&J more then 5stars we would so letting others know how great this company is, is my thanks to M&J Services . . ."

"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"..."

"I don't trust anyone else to service and repair my hvac units. TWICE another well known company misdiagnosed the problem completely. We called PLE, and not only did they accurately identify the problem, they were half the price. We fired the other guys. I won't ever call anyone else. Honest company, responsive and professional.

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.
