Air Conditioning
When the weather turns hot and humid, there’s nothing more important than a well-functioning air conditioning system to make your home the perfect refuge from the heat. If your AC isn’t working properly, you can expect fast and reliable service from our team of specially trained, NATE-Certified technicians. We service and install all equipment makes and models and have the tools, training and technology to solve the most complicated equipment issues.
Heating
Moncrief Furnace Manual
Whether your heating system is oil, gas or electric, when the weather turns cold proper heating is essential to your comfort and safety. As a full-service heating contractor, we’re experts on diagnosing and repairing home heating problems. Our technicians stay up-to-date on the latest trends in home heating and get ongoing factory training. This enables us to service, repair and install any brand of heating equipment quickly and accurately.
Indoor Air Quality
Did you know indoor air can be more polluted than the air outside? The indoor air specialists at Moncrief have the expertise to diagnose and correct any situation that could be contaminating your indoor air. We offer other top-quality products and services that ensure your indoor air is as safe and clean as it can possibly be, including: ventilators, humidifiers and dehumidifiers, air purifiers, media filters, HEPA systems, ultraviolet lights and periodic duct cleaning.
Water Heaters
Whether you prefer a gas, electric, solar or tankless solution, the comfort of heated water is something we’ve all come to rely on. Regardless of the type of water heater you choose, Moncrief's licensed Master Plumbers will provide exceptional service and maintenance to ensure your home has water at just the right temperatures every time you need it.
Duct Cleaning
Maintaining a healthy indoor environment involves more than just temperature control. It also requires removing airborne contaminants that can lead to asthma, allergies and chronic headaches or fatigue. Over time, dirt and other pollutants build up in your ductwork, restrict airflow, reduce capacity and efficiency, and get re-circulated each time your HVAC system operates. Moncrief provides expert periodic duct cleaning to remove these indoor contaminants, so you can be sure your indoor air is fresh and pure.
Home Performance
Your entire home is a system. The heating and air, doors, windows, walls, insulation, plumbing, and electrical all work in concert to provide comfort. Most efficiency and home comfort problems involve more than just the HVAC system itself. That’s why Moncrief offers complete whole-home energy audits using Building Performance Institute (BPI) certified auditors. We’re specially trained to identify variables that compromise your home’s performance, and we will provide a complete report with recommendations on how you can increase indoor comfort and decrease energy consumption.
Moncrief Furnace Troubleshooting
Humidifiers and Dehumidifiers
Atlanta features hot/dry, hot/humid, cold/dry, and cold/humid weather. Therefore, humidity control is an important part of maintaining optimal comfort and air quality in your home. Humidity too low or too high can cause health problems; warp/damage furniture, artwork, musical instruments, encourage pests; and promote mildew growth. We can help you determine which solution best suits your needs. A whole-home dehumidifier can be installed as part of your home's heating and cooling system to remove the ideal amount of moisture in the air—without making your home too dry.
Geothermal Heat Pumps
Geothermal heat pumps have become incredibly popular among homeowners for their efficient heating and cooling. These pumps use the earth’s own heat to move warmth into or out of a home. Geo heat pumps can be installed in basements or garages, thus eliminating the noisy outdoor unit of a conventional heat pump. (Federal Tax Credits may still apply.)
Dual-Fuel Systems
Like a hybrid car uses both gas and electricity to gain efficiency, dual-fuel systems combine a heat pump with a furnace — for reliable, even heating all winter as well as optimal cooling all summer. We have extensive expertise for this whole-home technology, and we can help you choose the right solution for your needs.
Energy Recovery Ventilators
Moncrief Furnace Manual 2017
Energy Recovery Ventilators (ERVs) are designed to minimize energy loss while bringing fresh air into your home and removing stale air year round. ERVs use the outgoing air's thermal energy to pre-condition the air coming in so you can enjoy fresh air without overworking your system. We stay up to date on the latest ERV options and can help you find the one that’s ideal for your home.
Generators
The South is notorious for power outages due to summer and winter storms, so it’s always a good idea to have a home backup generator at the ready to protect your home automatically. It delivers power directly to your home’s electrical system, backing up your entire home or just the most essential items (like your refrigerator!). Backup generators run on natural gas or liquid propane (LP) fuel, and sit outside just like a central air conditioning unit. We can recommend the most appropriate option for your needs.
