Certified Air Balancing & Diagnostics

Hot Rooms, Cold Rooms and High Bills All Have a Findable Cause

Your equipment is only one component of your heating and air conditioning system. A certified air balancing technician has the training and the tools to test the whole system — not just the indoor or outdoor equipment — and find out why some rooms never feel right.

True Total Home Comfort & Energy Efficiency

We Test the Whole System, Not Just the Equipment

Rather than just quoting new equipment, we test your entire heating and air conditioning system with sophisticated test instruments, and recommend the best options for your home comfort system.

We take the time to discuss comfort issues and concerns and design or redesign a Total Home Comfort System to suit your specific lifestyle and needs.

By measuring and documenting your new or present system’s performance after the installation, we make sure it’s fine-tuned to make the most of your energy costs while delivering the best comfort level it can.

Air is invisible. So are heating, cooling, air pollutants and energy. Briggs Air Conditioning, Heating and Refrigeration measures the properties of each of these invisible elements, and then presents the diagnostics to you in plain English.

Our job is to give you the information to understand your mechanical systems, and to recommend performance improvements if necessary. You will then have the information to decide how much or how little work you want done.

The Comfort Checker

Check Your Symptoms. Find the Cause.

We invite you to begin the diagnostic process. Tap each question below and compare it to what you notice where you spend your days. Then call us at (623) 474-5069.

Which rooms are hottest at 3:00 in the afternoon? Which are coldest at 8:00 in the morning?

Those rooms probably have inadequate airflow. It’s the air that moves the heat or cooling to each room. Too little air means too little air conditioning or heating, causing discomfort in some rooms.

Do you have to raise your voice on the phone when the fan comes on?

High air velocity or equipment noise. Too many of us have lived with a noisy system for too long. This irritating problem can often be easily corrected.

Does your system run continuously without adequate heating or cooling?

Poorly performing system. It may be running, but only at a fraction of capacity. A dozen system components must work together for a system to perform properly.

Are your utility costs excessive?

Low MPG. Cars are rated by miles per gallon. But what if there’s a leak in the gas line? Your air conditioning system’s ducts are similar to your car’s fuel line.

Have you had ongoing problems with your system since it was installed?

Poor installation. 40% to 50% of air conditioning systems have not been designed or installed properly and can be improved significantly.

Have you had indoor air quality problems — dust, dirt, moisture, or odors?

Damaged ducts. Return ducts have suction in them, and most leak. The result is dust and insulation pulled in from the attic, or fumes from garages and mechanical rooms.
