Heating and Air FAQs

AC and heating units are arguably the most complicated appliances and potentially the biggest investments in your home. However, most people don’t think about their West Palm Beach heating and air unit unless there is a problem. That’s when people call Mike Ramos, owner of One Hour Air Conditioning and Heating. Here is some basic information you may want to know about them.

How long will it take to get a repair technician out to my home?
Places like One Hour Air Conditioning and Heating can get someone the same day. This is also true of emergency services.

Are repairs to my air or heating unit costly?
Much like a car, that depends according to Ramos on what repairs need to be done to your West Palm Beach heating and air unit. Older units may be in need of more extensive work. It is hard to say until you have someone come out and take a look.

How do you know when a unit is beyond repair?
This is determined by the age and condition of your West Palm Beach heating and air unit. The average life of the unit is about ten to fifteen years. When repairs start becoming more expensive and perhaps more frequent, it may be time to replace your unit.

How do I know what unit is right for me?
A West Palm Beach heating and air can make a recommendation based on the size of your home, your budget, energy needs, and the size of the unit.

How long does it take to install a new unit?
The installation can be done in one day.

How can I avoid costly repairs?
Ramos states that people know they need to get oil changes and have their tires rotated to help maintain their car. Maintenance on your West Palm Beach heating and air unit is similar. One Hour Air Conditioning and Heating offers maintenance programs that offer bi-annual tune up services, discounts on repairs and replacements, and other benefits.

What should I look for when deciding on where to have my unit repaired or replaced?
Reputable places only use licensed technicians that have been background checked to perform repairs or installations who will be in charge of getting the permits they need (in the case of an installation). Many places offer financing and warranties for parts and/or labor.
