The crew that came to our house Zak and Yure worked well togetherand knew what they were doing and did it the first time. There was not any stop to think it over because they had seen this type of work before. Very Professional. I have found a new HVAC guys. Had Furnace and Air Conditioner both replaced with new Trane models. They both worked as expected the first time. I will only call Fairfax Cooling and Heating when ever I need work again.

Sept 2021 installation of new heat pump and air handler (13 year old air handler finally broke - the variable speed fan and coils specifically - change your air filters regularly!). We used to use Nugent & Sons, and we were generally happy with the service. For the new system, I called around to several companies recommended by Checkbook. Nugent came in way high on their estimate. Fairfax provided the best service and price and warranty. Family operation. Mike Bitter was great walking through the options and letting me know exactly what we needed and what we didn't need. The crew who did the installation (Yurry, Jack, Ian, and Andy) were also terrific.

Miki, on a holiday night, answered the phone himself and promptly came out and fixed a broken AC system. Prompt, courteous, down-to-earth, and service I intend to come back to for future needs. Nice to see businesses like this are still around!

Maintaining HVAC Equipment

The most important maintenance task for both heating and cooling 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.
