Consumer Comments for Davis & Davis Air Conditioning & Heating

The last three times I've called Davis & Davis they were bad. One time they saw a blocked tube, told me about it and said they would replace on next visit, but it failed within a week. I forgave that. Called them to do my fall furnace check and they started my humidifier on the attic system. It then began to leak and dripped through the ceiling. When I called them back that day they came out and because it wasn't leaking at that very moment, couldn't figure out what was wrong. When it started again two hours later they came again -- but then said that company policy was to not work on humidifiers in attics -- despite them having come twice that day to do just that. This was a Friday at 5:30pm so I was facing an emergency call to someone else. After much conversation with the manager back at the shop they agreed to shut it down. I should have known better when two years earlier I called them for an estimate to replace our two HVAC systems and although the guy came to look, they never sent the estimate. Disappointing, because we had happily used them for 20 years before.

Their inspections are thorough and professional. Once they caught a leak in a gas line in the yard that saved our house and lives. Always the best.

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.
