R & S Heating & Cooling

Not all HVAC contractors are created equal. Nor do they have the same training, equipment and experience. The costs can be quite dramatic by contractors taking shortcuts. You family not only needs the safety and peace of mind that the contractor you hire has the training and experience to keep your home safe and in working condition, not just licensed and insured. At R&S Heating & Cooling, we care about your family and your assets enough to invest in the equipment and training needed to keep your HVAC system running safely and smoothly.

Ensuring that your heating and cooling system is working properly is one of the most important ways to keep your overall energy costs down and the temperature in your house exactly where you find it the most comfortable. However, when things aren't working properly or as efficiently as they could, our skilled technicians will help you diagnose, repair, and understand not only what went wrong with your system, but also how you can expect it to work after the repair is completed. Furnaces, boilers, and air conditioners are like vehicles: the more preventative maintenance you perform and the better care you take of them, the longer they'll last.

There are many factors that influence the life of an HVAC unit but the average tends to be between 15 and 20 years. Performing standard maintenance on a unit can significantly increase the life of the unit and we've seen HVAC units last upwards of 25 years when properly maintained. Eventually though, all HVAC units will need to be replaced. When you do, however, it's important to be sure that the unit actually needs to be replaced and not just because that's what the salesman says. Certain components inside an HVAC unit have lower life expectancy than the HVAC unit itself.

Both maintenance and repair services are essential components of keeping your HVAC equipment operating efficiently and effectively throughout the life of your appliance. Maintenance services are preventative in nature whereas Repair Services are unplanned. Though they have the same goal in their execution-a heating and cooling system operating at peak performance levels-maintenance and repair services are also very different processes. Repair services are usually responses to critical situations-meaning some kind of mechanical issue or failure is keeping your HVAC system from operating properly.
