Stephen O'Reilly
Responsive, knowledgeable, dependable, & honest. Thank you for getting out heat up & running!

Update:10/12/18
Chris S got the heat last year and remembered when he arrived today, asked if it had a problem since. He came back to do a PM on the heater and while he was waiting for me to arrive, he opened up the air conditioner to inspect it and saw the coils were filthy. Took out his hose and cleaned them. Then when done, did the heater PM and then “said I just want to verify that ringing noise went away. Your house will cool much faster now!” I really like what Princeton air offers, quality and care, diagnose and fix. Not rushing to get to the next job. They’re so good I got the year round service plan.

There was an urgent need for a mold problem to be handled in a bathroom. They quickly identified the problem, tested the seriousness, and took care of it – in a very timely fashion. They communicated with me all along the way so I could fully comprehend what was going on. All the people were very knowledgeable, pleasant and accommodating. My experience with them was excellent, and I would highly recommend them.

Notice a problem with the humidity in my home, called and got a service appointment in the same day.

Thank you!
Tom Braun
The young man who came out to fulfill our annual service contract was extremely professional and was very thorough. Although he told us we needed a new ac unit I felt confident that he knew what he was talking about and took the right amount of time in order to make his recommendation. I want him back every year. Unfortunately I forgot his name because I’m old.

He then had Ricky call us with replacement ac unit recommendations. He was just as professional. He then took the time to visit our condo, take measurements himself and then made recommendations on what size unit to purchase. I really feel he saved us money. He was amazing.

We then were contacted by a gentleman named Steve who was a manager in the service and installation department. It’s hard to believe but he was just as good as the first two representatives and was an absolute pleasure to work with. He was a true professional and a real asset to your organization. I will always use your company if I can work with this team. Keep up the great work. Thanks for allowing me to spend $8,000.its hard to believe I didn’t even get other quotes because I was so happy with your team.

Recently Princeton Air did a routine maintenance check on our HVAC UNIT. The technician was Dominic McGinley. I must say Mr. McGinley was outstanding. After performing the maintenance and evaluation, he sat down with us and explained his findings in precise detail. He has also taken pictures of everything he found. Dominic was a pleasure with whom to interact. He was professional, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable. He explained everything in terms that we could definitely understand. He is one of the finest technicians that has ever performed preventative maintenance on our equipment. In my estimation he has all of attributes of a first rate Service Technician. Hopefully Princeton Air just what a valuable asset he is for the company. I certainly hope to interact with him many times in the future.

From circuit failures to panel malfunctions, Princeton Air handles urgent electrical issues throughout Hillsborough Township, NJ. We quickly identify what’s wrong and restore dependable power to your home.

Partial or complete power loss in Hillsborough Township homes without a confirmed utility outage often signals circuit failure, deteriorating wiring connections, or panel malfunctions that need immediate professional assessment to prevent safety hazards.

Hot-running electrical panels, persistent breaker failures, or unusual humming from circuit boxes signal dangerous conditions that require immediate electrical panel repair in Hillsborough Township. Our electricians quickly evaluate these warning signs and resolve underlying safety concerns before they create serious hazards.

Electrical components that emit burning or acrid smells in Hillsborough Township homes signal dangerous overheating conditions that demand immediate attention. These odors indicate serious fire hazards, whether from aging wiring common in Belle Mead’s older properties or stressed connections in newer Flagtown developments. Our emergency electrical service in Hillsborough Township treats these situations as urgent safety priorities.

Many properties in Belle Mead and around Neshanic Station feature electrical systems installed decades ago that may show gradual deterioration over time.

Storm damage in Hillsborough Township can affect electrical systems through multiple pathways. Lightning surges that travel through power lines. Water penetration into older wiring common throughout Belle Mead and Neshanic Station properties. Debris impact that loosens connections without creating visible damage.

Frequently Asked Questions

What counts as a true electrical emergency in Hillsborough Township?

Electrical problems become emergencies when they threaten your safety or could damage your property. Burning odors from electrical components, breakers that keep tripping, switches that spark, unexplained power loss, or unusual sounds from your panel all signal dangerous conditions that need immediate attention. Trust your instincts. If an electrical issue seems concerning, it probably is and warrants professional evaluation right away.

Is it safe to keep resetting a tripped breaker?

One reset is fine if you know what caused the trip, like plugging in too many appliances at once. But if a breaker keeps tripping without an obvious reason, something else is wrong. Maybe a short circuit, damaged wiring, or a failing breaker itself. Repeatedly flipping it back on without finding the root cause puts your Hillsborough Township home at risk for electrical fires. Have an electrician check it out before trying another reset.

What causes flickering lights throughout the house?

Single fixture flickering typically means you’re dealing with a bad bulb or a problem with that specific light. But lights flickering throughout your Hillsborough Township home? You’re looking at bigger issues like loose wiring connections, overloaded circuits, or an electrical panel that can’t maintain steady power delivery. House-wide flickering needs professional evaluation to identify any dangerous conditions.

Should a burning smell near an outlet be treated as an emergency?

Absolutely. Treat any burning odor from electrical components as an immediate emergency. That smell means something is overheating, whether it’s loose wiring connections, degraded insulation, or components pulling excessive current. Turn off power to that area right away and get emergency electrical service in Hillsborough Township, NJ. Burning smells from electrical systems never resolve on their own and indicate serious fire risk.

Can a storm create problems with my home’s electrical system?

Yes, storms can definitely damage your home’s electrical system. Power surges from lightning or utility grid fluctuations can fry circuit boards and damage sensitive equipment. Water from flooding or roof leaks can get into wiring and create dangerous short circuits. In Hillsborough Township, storms can bring both heavy rain and lightning activity. Watch for warning signs like flickering lights, tripping breakers, or burning odors after severe weather passes through. If you notice any of these problems, avoid using those circuits until a qualified electrician can check things out.
