Consumer Comments for Northern Virginia Mechanical Services

Consumer from Arlington, VA
Aug 24, 2021

Can't rate actual service, yet overall experience was inferior and I can't recommend the company. Tech showed up on time for initial March 2021 appointment, made very specific and no-nonsense recommendations about next-steps, and said I'd be contacted to setup appointment to do the work. After 4 weeks I hadn't heard back, so I called them April 2021 and was told they'd contact me to schedule an appointment. After another couple weeks, I hadn't heard back so I again called them May 2021 and this time I asked if they still wanted to proceed or if I should contact someone else for the work. I was told I'd be contacted. It's August 2021, I've not heard back from NVMS.

This is a very good no nonsense company, price is competitive to one of the lowest, Steve and Jennifer are professional, honest and reliable. I now just call them to serve my units without any questions, knowing they are the best, have been with them for the last 7/8 years and continuing.

How to Choose New HVAC Equipment

Getting a Good Contract for an HVAC Installation Job

Once you’ve decided on the new heating or cooling system you want to buy, collect bids from high-quality contractors. Each contractor’s proposal should include several elements, all of them important in your choice on the best outfit for your job.

How Your Thermostat Settings Affect Energy Costs

The best way to cut home energy costs is the most obvious one: Dial down your thermostat, and get and use a programmable thermostat.

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.
