Reviews From Our Customers

Peter was an absolute lifesaver. My A/C decided it had officially had enough around midnight during one of the hottest days of the year, with a heat advisory and temperatures reaching around 115° with the heat index. By the next morning, parts of my house had climbed into the 90-95° range, so I was incredibly relieved when a colleague recommended Peter. He was able to fit me in the very same day and gave me a 4:00-7:00 PM arrival window. Around 2:00 PM, he even called to touch base, gather a little more information about what was happening, and let me know we were still on schedule. That level of communication alone was greatly appreciated. Peter arrived around 5:30 PM and was professional, knowledgeable, and efficient from start to finish. I showed him how the outdoor unit would fail to start when I flipped the breaker back on, ending with a large spark from the lower portion of the unit. Rather than simply replacing parts, he took the time to explain exactly what he found, showed me the failed component, and walked me through his diagnosis so I understood what had happened. Before performing any work, he clearly explained the cost of both the replacement blower motor and the installation. Fortunately, he already had the correct blower motor stocked in his truck, which meant there was no waiting on parts. Within about an hour to an hour and a half, everything was repaired and my vents were blowing cold air again. It’s hard to overstate how grateful I was. During a brutal heat wave, same-day service like this is worth its weight in gold. Peter’s professionalism, honesty, communication, and efficiency made an incredibly stressful situation so much easier. I would recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for an HVAC technician they can trust.
I highly recommend Peter and his team at Elite Degrees Cooling for any heating and cooling needs in the tri-county area. I am a senior homeowner who purchased a new furnace in 2022 through an Oakland County–sponsored program. Unfortunately, the furnace has been a nightmare from the start, breaking down repeatedly year after year. On January 20, 2026, during 20-degree weather, the furnace failed for the fifth time this year, leaving me without heat for 13 days. The original contractor and subcontractor did not respond. I contacted Condor directly and received a call back from Peter at Elite Degrees Cooling. He was blindsided by the situation but stepped in immediately and went above and beyond to help. Peter made two service visits, accurately diagnosed the issue, and replaced both the motherboard and the motor (for the fourth time). Peter was professional, kind, knowledgeable, and respectful throughout the entire process. He took the time to explain everything and treated me with dignity during a very stressful situation. After years of ongoing problems, Peter was the first person who truly made a difference. If you want honest, skilled, and compassionate service, I highly recommend Peter and Elite Degrees Cooling. — Ki H.
I’m super impressed with this company despite not having any work completed at my home yet. My friend’s AC stopped working the other day when it was blazing hot outside. She called a different company and was told she would hear back from them the next day. Per my friend’s medical situation, it was important to get this fixed ASAP. I did some research online and came across this company and its impressive reviews. I called and talked to Peter and explained the situation. He agreed to extend his work day, which I can only imagine had been extra long already, to go to my friend’s house right away. Her air conditioner was fixed in record time and she was charged a fair price for the repair. I know who I’ll be calling the next time I have any HVAC issues! Thank you, Peter. Looking forward to meeting you when the time comes. 😄
No AC in heat spell. Peter was very courteous and professional. Elite heating and cooling was able to come fix my air conditioner on the day it stopped working. Amazing since every company I called could not come out until Monday. Today is Thursday. Thank you Elite and thanks a whole bunch Peter
Ask for Frank A!!!! He came out to check my air conditioning and was fantastic from start to finish. He was on time, professional, and clearly explained what was going on and what he was doing to fix it. He worked efficiently, respected my home, and made sure everything was running properly before he left. I feel a lot safer going into this hot week thanks to him. Highly recommend Frank A and this company. - Melissa

Our FAQ

How can I maintain my new air conditioning system?

While our team handles professional maintenance, there are a few simple things you can do to keep your system running smoothly:

  • Replace filters regularly: Dirty filters can restrict airflow, so it’s important to replace them every 1-3 months.
  • Keep vents clear: Ensure that vents and registers are unobstructed for proper airflow.
  • Monitor your thermostat: Set your thermostat to a consistent temperature and avoid frequent adjustments to improve efficiency.
  • Inspect the area around the unit: Keep the space around your AC unit free of debris and ensure there’s no blockage.
What is the lifespan of a new air conditioner?

A well-maintained air conditioning system typically lasts between 10 to 15 years. Regular maintenance, such as annual tune-ups, can help extend the life of your unit and keep it running efficiently for years to come.

How often should I schedule AC maintenance to avoid repairs?

Regular maintenance is key to preventing unexpected repairs. Schedule professional AC maintenance at least once a year, preferably in the spring, before the cooling season begins. Maintenance tasks include:

  • Cleaning or replacing air filters
  • Checking refrigerant levels
  • Inspecting and tightening electrical connections
  • Lubricating moving parts
  • Cleaning the coils

 

Routine care not only extends the lifespan of your unit but also ensures optimal performance and energy efficiency.

Can a clogged filter cause my AC to stop working?

Yes, a clogged air filter can restrict airflow, leading to several problems, including:

  • Overheating: If airflow is restricted, the AC’s internal components may overheat and cause the system to shut down.
  • Reduced Cooling: The unit may struggle to cool your home effectively, resulting in uneven temperatures.
  • Increased Strain on the System: A dirty filter makes the AC work harder, which can lead to breakdowns or increased energy consumption.

 

Replacing a clogged filter promptly can prevent these issues and keep your system running smoothly.

Why is my air conditioner leaking water?

Water leaks from your AC system are often caused by one of the following issues:

  • Clogged Condensate Drain: The most common cause of water leaks is a blocked drain line, which prevents excess moisture from draining properly.
  • Frozen Coils: When the evaporator coils freeze due to airflow issues or refrigerant leaks, they can melt and cause water to pool around the system.
  • Improper Installation: Incorrectly installed or disconnected components can lead to water leakage.

 

Contact a technician to address any water leakage, as it can cause damage to your home or your unit.
