Heating & Air in Hoover, AL

Heating & cooling in Hoover

We serve the west side of Hoover, the neighborhoods closest to Bessemer: Ross Bridge, Lake Cyrus, Trace Crossings and the homes along the Highway 150 corridor. Most houses here were built from the late 1990s on, and they are bigger and taller than the homes in the older towns west of Bessemer.

That brings its own HVAC challenges. Many two-story homes have two systems – one for the main floor, one for upstairs – or a single system with zoning dampers. The upstairs unit usually sits in the attic, where summer temperatures reach well above 120 °F. When its condensate drain clogs, the safety switch shuts it off or water ends up in the ceiling of the room below. Clearing drains, checking float switches and cleaning attic air handlers is a big part of our maintenance work here.

“Upstairs is always hot” is the most common complaint we hear in two-story homes. The fix is not always a bigger unit: it can be a failing zone damper, leaky ducts in the attic, too little return air upstairs or a thermostat in the wrong place. We test before we sell. When a system does need replacing, the first-generation equipment in these neighborhoods is now old enough that a modern variable-speed AC or heat pump makes a noticeable difference in comfort and power bills.

Homeowners here often want a smart thermostat – we install and set them up correctly for heat pumps, gas furnaces and zoned systems.

West Hoover is a quick drive from our McCalla shop via I-459 and Highway 150. We answer 24/7, give you an upfront price and offer in-house financing for larger projects.
