Merry Christmas 2014

christmastreeWishing You A Very Merry Christmas!

Wow! Another year has past, and so very quickly! This year has been one of great change and growth… and unfortunately, some loss.

I have a friend that will be missed. He passed away about 3 weeks ago. I am  so glad that I got to be a part of his life for 15 or so years. Rest in peace Nicholas, rest in peace, my friend. I am so glad that I have a lot of great memories of time spent together. May his wife of 50 years, Betty,  find comfort and the peace that surpasses all understanding in the days to come.

I am sure that we all had some sorrow that 2014 has brought to our doorsteps. It is up to us to decide whether we will use that sorrow as a “stepping stone” or a “stumbling block”. My hope and prayer is that whatever may have come your way, that you can turn it into a “stepping stone” for you and your family. Is that going to be easy? Probably not, but you have a choice… you can be “better” from it or “bitter” from it. Strive to be better, it is worth it in the long run.

All of us at Arctic Air have been extremely blessed this year. We, as a company,  have attained goals that have eluded us for 21 years! None of this could have been accomplished without the amazing team of people that we have working here at Arctic Air. Each team member is highly regarded and respected.

So for everyone here (Valarie, John, Staci, Chuck, Patrick, Troy, Craig, Steve, Becky, Monica and Mike)… GREAT JOB! Know that you are appreciated for your hard work and dedication.

Thank you to our customers, who have remained loyal and committed to us. In today’s society, it seems that loyalty is a characteristic that you don’t see much. We are fortunate enough to see it everyday here at Arctic Air. We appreciate you all, and we look forward to serving you in 2015.

With Christmas and New Year’s Day upon us, I hope that everyone has a wonderful time with your family and friends. May you build lasting, positive memories that you will enjoy for the rest of your lives.

As this year closes, I must say that I am excited to see what next year holds.

May you all be blessed this Christmas Season. Merry Christmas!

Charleston Air Conditioner Repaired With Cleaning & Maintenance

We had a repair service scheduled in Charleston for our customer’s air conditioner. The customer informed us that when he turned on the unit, but it wasn’t cooling. Arctic Air arrived promptly as scheduled, then began looking it over. The air filter needed to be changed immediately and the dirty coils needed to be cleaned.

Having a regular check-up and maintenance work can prevent issues such as these, so they don’t worsen with time. After the technician changed the filter and cleaned the coils, he turned the unit on. These fixes were able to get the and the unit began cooling the home again. The customer was thrilled that the air conditioner was able to be fixed, and at an affordable price.

AC/Heating Unit Replacement for Goose Creek Customer

This Goose Creek, SC customer called because his AC/heating unit was not working. We found that he had a major repair ($2,000) that needed to be made. Since his ac/heating unit was so old, we recommended replacing the unit. When we were removing the unit, we discovered that the unit had a major leak in the evaporator coil. This repair would have cost between $1,500 and $2,000! Jose called office and joined our Discount Club for 3 years, also.

Jose was very happy that we recommended replacing the old unit with a new York 13 Seer Heat Pump. This customer is now able to have peace of mind for the next 10 years. Not only are his parts and compressor warrantied for 10 years, but he also got a 10 year labor warranty. Charleston, SC just got a major cold snap in the weather. We were able to install this unit and now his family is nice and warm!

Jose could not thank me enough for giving him great service, a quality professional installation, and a great price. We even had a little bit of rain that we worked through to get the job done. Notice how wet the unit is in the pictures.

He said, “thank you for all that you did.” He also told us that he didn’t think that he would be able to get such a good price for quality equipment.

Check out the unit below!

Another Arctic Blast…

Hello Everyone,

rainAnother Arctic Blast is heading for Charleston. The storm from a couple of weeks ago did slow things down here in the greater Charleston area, but everyone managed to get through it. Though there were some hiccups with the bridges and roadways, I believe that the South Carolina Department of Transportation did a great job of keeps the roads safe. I see what happened in Atlanta, GA, and I was very thankful that we didn’t have to go through that.

Ice-Ice-BabyThe weather guru’s are saying that an ice storm warning remains in effect from midnight tonight to 10am EST Thursday. It looks like the main problem that we are going to have, is the ice that is going to form because of all the rain.  The forecasts that I have seen are saying the the ice could be between 1/4″ to 1/2″ thick.  This is especially dangerous on the roads and bridges.

So this is going to be a repeat of what was mentioned in the posts before that storm.  Be sure to “BE PREPARED”… you know… the Boy Scout’s Motto!  

Here is a quick list of things to check…

  1. Insulate all water pipes from cold moving air and keep them dry.
  2.  Use either heater tapes wrapped around the pipes or a heated reflector lamp in a dry enclosed space.
  3.  If electric power is unavailable or is lost, let the water run no faster than a slow constant drip; this is cheaper than repairing it.
  4.  Remember to insulate and heat the drain lines in crawl spaces and cold basements.
  5.  To thaw a frozen pipe, first check the pipe in the area of the freeze.
  6.  It is far better to heat the area around the frozen part with an electric space heater, a hand-held hair dryer, or a heat lamp in a reflector to prevent a fire.
  7.  Always disconnect your water hose from your outdoor spigot in the winter, or before the temperature in your area drops below freezing.
  8.  Use a temperature-controlled thermal convection powered hot water recirculation valve (which does not require electricity to operate) to continuously circulate warm water throughout your hot and cold waterlines anytime the temperature is below the user chosen set point 77F-140F.
  9.  Use a product called ICE LOC which prevents pipes from rupturing by taking up the expansion of the frozen water.
  10.  Use a RedyTemp, a device which utilizes an internal water contacting temperature probe to monitor the temperature of the water inside the pipes.

(8, 9 and 10 are overkill for the Charleston SC area, but you get the idea)

As always, if you have problems with your heating, or plumbing, feel free to contact Arctic Air at 843-821-0937 or submit a service request online. We offer 24/7 Emergency Service!

Did ANYONE Make It To The Fair??

I hope everyone had a great weekend.  I was just wondering if anyone made it to the fair?  What was your favorite part?  Any new types of “fair food?”

Please let me know, so that I can decide if I want to go!  Thanks, MikeCoastal Carolina Fair
