We’ve been in business since 2009, and between the technicians on our team right now, there’s more than 30 years of combined HVAC experience. That’s not a number we picked for the website. It’s how long it took to get good enough that we stopped guessing and started sizing systems the right way.
A lot of what we do is installation: a new AC sized to the actual house, a furnace replaced correctly the first time, a mini split added where ductwork was never an option. When something breaks instead, a failed capacitor, a furnace that won’t fire, a heat pump stuck in defrost, we fix what’s actually wrong, not what’s easiest to sell. That includes custom ductwork for homes where the standard setup doesn’t fit.
Every technician we send out is NATE certified, tested on the actual equipment they’re working on. We don’t subcontract that work out.

New systems get sized to your actual house, not a number pulled off a square footage chart. Maintenance plans keep it running that way.

We size the replacement to the house it's going into, not the one that was there before.

Built for additions, garages, sunrooms, and older homes that were never built with ductwork in the first place.

Warm air, a unit that won't shut off, or one that's just done for good. We diagnose it first and tell you straight whether it's worth fixing.

A heat pump stuck in defrost, or blowing cold air when it should be heating, is usually a control board or reversing valve problem. One visit, and we'll know which.

Won't start. Short cycles. Trips the breaker. We find the actual cause instead of swapping parts until something works.
There are three local historic districts in town, and if your house sits inside one, that changes the job before we show up. Franklin Rosemary is the oldest, mostly Federal and Greek Revival homes near campus. Cameron-McCauley filled in through the 1940s. Gimghoul is the smallest, just 37 houses built between 1924 and the late 1930s, added to the National Register in 1993.
Here’s what matters for the job itself: any exterior change visible from the street, including a new condenser location or a mini split line set, needs a Certificate of Appropriateness from the town first. We’ve pulled that paperwork before, so it doesn’t slow things down. Ductwork in these homes is often original or heavily modified, sometimes missing entirely, and we size around what’s actually there instead of assuming a standard layout.
1. You call or book online
Same-day slots are usually open, even during peak summer weeks.
2. We inspect before we quote
A flat rate price after we've actually looked at the system, never a number guessed over the phone.
3. Most installs finish in one visit
Same-day in most cases, assuming the right equipment is on the truck.
4.We stand behind it
If something's not right after we leave, we come back and fix it.

Flat Rate Pricing, Sized Right:

BBB A+ Accredited:
Not a badge we bought, a rating built on real complaint history. Backed by more than 1,014 Google reviews.
NATE Certified Technicians:
Our own team, tested on the actual equipment they work on. Never subcontracted.
17+ Years in Business:
Founded in 2009. We've sized systems for everything from a 1930s bungalow to a house built in the early 2000s.
Workmanship Guarantee
An install or repair that doesn't hold up gets fixed. No separate fee, no argument.
New equipment isn’t cheap, and covering it in one shot isn’t realistic for most households. We work with the Wells Fargo Home Projects Credit Card to spread that cost out, whether it’s a full installation or a repair bill that landed bigger than expected.
What that actually looks like:
Bring it up on the call, and we’ll walk through the numbers before you commit to anything.
Not every neighborhood sizes the same way. Southern Village opened in 1994, built with houses close together and garages tucked behind on alleys, small lots. That limits where an outdoor unit can physically sit. Meadowmont broke ground in 1999 off Raleigh Road and NC-54, and it’s the opposite: bigger lots, newer building envelopes, more room to work with.
Most of the area sits under a tree canopy ordinance requiring 20 to 60 percent lot coverage depending on size, and it’s been a certified Tree City USA town since the 1990s. Good for shade. Harder on a cooling system, since a shaded, humid lot loads a compressor more than an open one at the same square footage. We size for the actual site, not just the number on a listing.

I called my go to company alternative Aire to help me with an issue with my HVAC and Phil came out and did a great job! Great customer service, he diagnosed the issue quickly and had it fixed within 15 minutes. He even took a look to make sure everything else was looking Okay. Cool air coming into the house now feels great. Thanks for your help Phil!Posted on Google![]()
