At Sam's Air Control, we focus on providing top-quality, reliable HVAC systems. For central air systems, we primarily offer Trane by American Standard, known for durability and high performance. For mini-split systems, we carry Mitsubishi, a leading brand in energy-efficient, versatile cooling solutions. These brands are selected for their excellent track record and our commitment to ensuring your home’s comfort.

A heat pump is a versatile heating and cooling system that can both warm and cool your home using the same unit. It works by transferring heat rather than generating it directly—during winter, it pulls heat from the outside air and moves it indoors, while in summer, it reverses this process to remove heat from inside your home, cooling it down.

Heat pumps are energy-efficient, eco-friendly, and can lower your energy costs by reducing reliance on traditional heating methods. They are especially effective in moderate climates but can work well with additional systems in colder areas.

A furnace is a key component of a home’s heating system, responsible for producing and distributing warm air throughout your home during colder months. It works by heating air through combustion (natural gas, oil, or propane) or electrical resistance, and then circulating that warm air via ductwork. Furnaces are designed to keep indoor spaces comfortable and are an essential part of maintaining a cozy home environment, especially in colder climates.

Sam's Air Control services all of Central New Jersey along with Staten Island.

The lifespan of an HVAC system varies based on the type and brand of your system, but most systems last between 10 to 25 years. If your unit is properly and regularly maintained, it can potentially last an upwards of 25 years. Call us and we’ll give you a specific answer for your product.

High-efficiency systems use components like variable-speed compressors and fans that adjust their speeds based on the home’s needs, instead of running at full speed constantly. This means the system only uses the energy necessary to maintain the desired temperature, reducing overall energy usage.

High-efficiency HVAC systems often have a higher upfront cost compared to standard systems due to their advanced components. However, they provide long-term savings through lower energy bills, often offsetting the initial investment over time.

Typically, yes. Because high-efficiency systems run more gradually and only use the energy required, they experience less wear and tear compared to standard systems, often resulting in a longer lifespan with proper maintenance.

High-efficiency systems are particularly beneficial in climates with extreme temperatures, where the HVAC system runs frequently. However, they can still offer value in milder climates through consistent comfort and energy savings.

New Jersey offers various HVAC rebates to help residents save on energy-efficient upgrades for their heating and cooling systems. These rebates can apply to high-efficiency air conditioners, heat pumps, furnaces, boilers, and even smart thermostats. The specific rebate amount depends on the type and efficiency rating of the equipment installed.

Programs like NJ Clean Energy provide incentives for upgrading to more efficient models, helping reduce energy bills and improve home comfort. To qualify, your system typically needs to meet certain energy efficiency standards, and installations must be performed by a certified contractor. Sam’s Air Control can guide you through the rebate options and help ensure your installation qualifies for the maximum savings.

An AC coil, also known as an evaporator coil or condenser coil, is a crucial part of your air conditioning system that helps cool your home. The coil works by allowing refrigerant to absorb heat from indoor air, cooling it down as it passes through the system. The cold air is then distributed throughout your home, while the absorbed heat is transferred outside via the condenser coil. Properly functioning AC coils are essential for efficient cooling, and regular maintenance helps prevent issues like reduced airflow and higher energy costs.

The answer to this question will vary based on the type and brand of system you have or are purchasing. For your peace of mind, we do offer a monthly plan where you will be routinely serviced. Give us a call at +1 888-402-9176 and we’ll give you a specific answer for your specific product.

Anytime your system is acting in a way that is out of the ordinary, contact us right away so we can diagnose if service or repairs are needed. This includes weakened air flow, unexpected noises or odors, higher-than-expected utility bills, and/or other frequent issues.

A high-efficiency HVAC system is designed to provide heating and cooling using less energy than standard systems. These systems use advanced technology and features, such as variable-speed motors, enhanced insulation, and smart thermostats, to optimize performance and minimize energy consumption.

Yes! High-efficiency systems provide more consistent temperatures, better humidity control, and quieter operation. Variable-speed features allow the system to make smaller, gradual adjustments to maintain comfort, rather than constantly turning on and off.

While savings vary based on factors like local energy costs, climate, and system usage, high-efficiency HVAC systems can reduce energy bills by 20-40% compared to standard systems. Over time, these savings add up significantly.

Many high-efficiency HVAC systems qualify for rebates or tax incentives, especially if they meet ENERGY STAR standards. Check with your local utility provider and federal programs for available rebates, as these incentives can help offset the cost of a new system.
