Consumer Comments for Johnson's Polar Air

Consumer from Mc Lean, VA

We have used this company for our twice yearly HVAC servicing checks and needed repairs. We consistently have the same tech. This is great because he is totally familiar with our system. They have never pushed us to replace or spend money. Instead, the emphasis is on keeping things running and on answering any of our questions. Our experience has been one of complete neatness and courtesy.

Have used their services for over 30 years, covering two different locations at different times. They replaced a heat pump that was under a separate Polar Air contract (not their heat pump and not installed by them). Replaced Air conditioner and furnace at reasonable price for other location. Installed humidifier.

Our gas fireplace stopped working, so I asked a friend who recently had a repair done for a recommendation, if they were happy. Johnson’s Polar Air was the recommendation and “ask for Mike.” I neglected to ask for Mike when I called, but Mike was the one who came out. I was given a window of arrival, and Mike and his helper showed up on time. They diagnosed the issue, explained what was wrong, and that they would need to order a part. I paid for their visit and they called the next day with information about how much the part and installation would cost. I agreed. When the part came in, I received a phone call to schedule the repair, and they were out the next day. Not only did they install the new part, they ensured that all the logs were back in place, changed the battery in the remote sensor, and tested the fireplace to make sure it worked properly before leaving. In these times of COVID, they also wore masks the entire time as well as shoe covers. After all was completed, Mike had me look at the fireplace to make sure all was satisfactory before he gave me any paperwork. The cost was exactly as quoted. I’ll be using this company again in the future.

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.

Are Heat Pumps the Future of HVAC?

Improved technology, generous tax credits and rebates, and lower utility bills might have us reconsider how to heat and cool our homes.

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.
