I called on December 25th at midnight and started leaving a message and Thomas Hoffman the owner called me back almost immediately. He said he would come out the next morning between 8:00 and 10:00 am snd he was promptly on time. He fixed my problem and while he was there I decided to get an estimate for a new furnace and air conditioning unit. The price was very reasonable and the installers one of them being his son were both very professional very courteous, polite, arrived on time and finished the same day. I enjoy knowing that I now have the support of Thomas Hoffman heating and air conditioning along with the peace of mind that comes with owning a Trane. Nothing stops a Trane.

Nick was excellent. Super profession, quick, and up front with the pricing (which was fair). Hopefully we don't need to call anyone to fix our AC again, but if we do - I'm calling Nick!
Response from the owner:Thank you, Layton, for your amazing review! We really appreciate your support and hope to be your first call for any future repairs!
Same day service. Technician arrived as scheduled. Replaced capacitor quickly. Friendly technician. Repair cost $429 seemed high for inexpensive part and 20 minutes labor.

My ac compressor was replaced.

Do you ever feel like the air in your home is not making you comfortable enough, although you carefully control the temperature all the time through the HVAC system? If you notice that your skin tends to get very dry in the winter and hot days are almost insufferable during the summer, you might have a problem with dry air.
Many households have an air humidity level that is too low, leading to various issues. Ideally, you would have a 40-60% moisture level in the air. Using a humidifier to keep this level consistent will improve your health, protect your house, and help you spend less money.
Health Benefits
Having an air humidifier installed in your home brings numerous health benefits. You will immediately start seeing improvements in various breathing and skin problems. Here are some examples:
Improves Allergy Symptoms
Dry air feels exceptionally uncomfortable for people with allergies. It leads to difficulty breathing, itchy nose and skin, coughing, dry skin and throat, etc. Humid air alleviates allergy symptoms and complements your treatment, helping you feel better again.
Alleviates Cough Symptoms
A humidifier can be bliss when you have a cough. It improves the air quality and helps your throat by keeping your airways moist.
Helps You Breathe Easier
Raising the humidity in your home can also dramatically improve a stuffy nose. Increase the air humidity levels to 60-70%, and you will immediately see the difference. This change will also help you and your children sleep better.
Prevents Dry and Cracked Skin
If you’ve been dealing with dry skin, cracked heels, elbows, and lips and feel like you constantly need to apply lotion, the air in your home may be to blame. A humidifier will relieve the dry skin symptoms and keep you better hydrated and more comfortable.
Protecting Your House and Belongings
Dry air doesn’t only affect your health and comfort level, but it can damage your property as well. If the air humidity drops below 30-40%, your wood items and structure can suffer.
By constantly pumping heat in your home and not checking the air humidity levels with a hygrometer, you are drawing moisture out of your furniture, wood panels, and floors. Dry wood may crack easily, leading to expensive repairs and replacements.
Static electricity is another sign that the moisture levels in your house are much too low. Check the air humidity level if you receive a shock each time you handle your linens or try to put a sweater on.
Saving Money
An air humidifier will help you save money, too. Humid heat feels hotter than dry heat thanks to the water particles carrying the energy. Therefore, you won’t have to turn the heat up so much when your house has optimal moisture levels.
Adding a humidifier to your HVAC system is the best way to enjoy these benefits without worrying too much about maintaining it and constantly moving it from one room to another. Call Thomas Hoffmann Air Conditioning & Heating LLC today at (314) 471-7625 to learn more!
