This was my 1st time using Thomas Hoffmann A/C & Heating, but it will probably not be my last.
After calling 📞 a few companies near my location & not getting a response, I decided to call Thomas Hoffman & someone immediately answered.
I needed someone to comeout & look at the installation of a new Smart Thermostat & let me know if it was installed properly & if not, install it correctly for me.
I was given a appointment on the day that I called for later that morning with a gentleman named Nick who supposedly was the guy that knew all about Thermostats & Wiring.
Nick arrived & honestly saved the day. He was very personable & professional & did a very thorough job while explaining everything thoroughly.
Nick is a very valuable asset to the Hoffman company & represents their company & himself with great pride.
I felt like I was in safe hands, & Nick performed quality work.
Thomas Hoffman is a company that U can trust & get ur money's worth if not more.
I look forward to doing more business with them in the future....

Realized my furnace stopped working late last night and forecast called for very cold arctic air blast. Called my regular HVAC company that advertises 24 hour service to find that after 7 PM, there is only an answering service. Same with two more “24 hour service” companies. Then I called Thomas Hoffmann HVAC Company and Nick quickly answered, listened to my issue, gave me a quote and was on his way. Nick arrived soon, completely checked out my furnace, found the problem and did the repair. Because the problem was fairly minor, he even gave me an unexpected and very appreciated discount. Nick was professional, competent, and very engaging. Best emergency, after-hours experience I’ve ever had. Nick saved the day and gave me the peace of mind I needed.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Richard, for sharing your experience; we're glad Nick could provide you with prompt and professional service during such a challenging time. Your kind words mean a lot to us!
Nick was great he was prompt and very patient in explaining the problems with our system and the steps we would take to solve them.

Furnace would not blow heat on Friday night and after leaving a few messages to several companies, Mr Hoffman called me back quickly and did a service call. Diagnosed the issue and was able to fix the problem. Will need a new unit soon, but nice not be without heat during the holidays! Quote and Invoice receipt done on the spot and detailed! Will use again for sure.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Heath, for your kind words! We're glad Mr. Hoffmann could get your furnace working in time for the holidays and provide a detailed quote and invoice. We appreciate your trust in us and look forward to helping you again in the future!

The Placement of the Thermostat
The technician will first look for the placement of the thermostat. Usually, it is on the main floor and should be centrally located. The trouble is, once that area reaches the set temperature, the furnace shuts off, regardless of the temperatures in the other rooms or on different floors. This is why it is never a good idea to place the thermostat close to any heat sources, like a kitchen or drafty areas near the front door. This will cause the thermostat to read a temperature inconsistent with the rest of the house.
Haven’t you ever noticed that when you have a lot of guests in the home, the temperature rises quickly? You know that this is from the heat generated by the people, so you adjust the thermostat. After everyone has left, you enter your bedroom only to find it freezing. This is because the thermostat was only reading the temperature of the air surrounding it. A single-system thermostat cannot react to the temperatures of other rooms.
How a Zoning System Works
The easiest and most efficient solution to this problem in your home is installing a zoning system. A zoning system relies on multiple thermometers connected to one furnace and runs by your thermostat. Electronic dampers are installed inside your HVAC system’s existing ductwork, allowing them to be opened and closed as needed. The areas controlled by each zone usually depend on the square footage, so it is a good idea to have an HVAC technician evaluate your home first to determine if a zoning system will work for you.
Saving Money Year Round
Once installed, you will notice dramatic savings in your monthly utility consumption. A zoning system will allow you to restrict airflow to portions of the home never used, saving you hundreds of dollars a year in heating and cooling costs. A zoning system will also work with your central air conditioning in the summer. Depending on the size of your home, you can transform your single heating and cooling systems into multiple ones without adding a second furnace or air conditioner. Keeping it working efficiently is as simple as setting up your yearly maintenance visit.
If there is no noticeable malfunction with your furnace or blockage in the ductwork, then the simple installation of a zoning system might be the answer. The savings it will give you will more than cover the cost. Call Thomas Hoffmann Air Conditioning & Heating LLC at (314) 471-7625 for a free estimate.
