Consumer Comments for Fry Heating Plumbing & Air Conditioning

Consumer from Takoma Park, MD

WE have been using Fry Plumbing for years for radiator work, replacing an ancient boiler with a new furnace, replacing old air conditioning units, etc. Always low prices, good service, and almost always exceptionally friendly and helpful staff (some less cheerful but still quite competent). Johnny, who used to do service visits but might just do customer interactions from the office now, is especially good, friendly, fun to work with.

Have used Fry for all my plumbing, ac/heating needs for years. Most recently, had my ac/heating air exchange fail on a Friday before leaving for vacation. Fry had a repair person on Monday, and when it was determined the exchange needed replacing, did it two days later.

Fry came out to fix my boiler for much less than another company had quoted.

Where to Find Good HVAC Help

To make sure your heating and air-conditioning systems work when needed, they must be properly installed and maintained. We’ve rated area heating and air-conditioning services for quality and price.

What to Do If You Need HVAC Repairs

If you need repairs to heating or air-conditioning equipment, our ratings of local businesses will help you find a good company to perform them.

Choosing New HVAC Equipment and Getting It Installed Properly

How well a new HVAC system performs, and how much it costs, depends heavily on its design and the quality of installation. It’s important to make the right decisions—and there are many to make. You also must make sure to get a fair contract.

HVAC Equipment Features to Consider

If you are installing new equipment, in addition to making choices about energy efficiency, you will need to decide whether to pay extra for various features. Here is a summary of the types of add-ons.

Maintaining Your HVAC Equipment

The most important maintenance task for HVAC systems is something you can do yourself—replacing the air filter. Check your filter monthly. When a filter has a matting of dirt—i.e., it’s difficult to see through when you hold it up to a light—it’s time to replace it.

HVAC Maintenance Contracts Are Usually Bad Buys

Rather than paying for individual maintenance visits and repair jobs, you might consider getting a service contract for air-conditioning and/or heating equipment. Many companies try to persuade customers to enter into such contracts.
