Dominic was very professional and installed my new Nest Thermostat in. He showed me some features and mage sure I had the app set up on my I- Phone. Dominic forgot to put the door back on my furnace but returned and put it securely back on.

I was very happy with the central air conditioning system Princeton Air installed for me. They were very prompt in getting a quote to me, were very competitive and did an excellent job with the installation. I plan on using them for all maintenance on the unit and highly recommend them.

MOST RECENT June 2026:
Weltman has been purchased by Princeton Air. They have been really great. A seamless transition on the customer side. Eric was just here to put in a new anti-scaling system and a pressure relief valve for the house. Very happy!

UPDATE:
Now in our home for almost 8 years and Weltman has never disappointed! Chris L came today and was completely professional and quick for our yearly inspection of our furnace before the cold winter! It’s great to know they keep great notes and, almost, know more about our system than we do!

Weltman will always make it right if something is wrong. They will also get to you ASAP! We have been customers since we bought our home 3 years ago and have been completely satisfied!

Scott Jenkins
I was recommended Princeton Air by a friend and I’m very happy that I was. I had a hvac and furnace system that was 25 years old and in dire need of replacement.
Chris from the company came out very promptly and did a full review, taking the time to take me through the different options. From there we reached an agreement and within one week the team came out and did a full dual zone system replacement.
I was blown away by the professionalism and indeed sheer hard work of the installation team. They arrived at 08.30am and finished at 8.30pm working tirelessly to complete the job in one day. A huge thank you to Princeton air, Chris and the install team -Jorge Vizueta, John Jaramillo, Juan Torres and Jhonny Anacona for a really cool air conditioning experience. Thank you!
Sarah Curtis
The repair man, Dominic came out this morning to inspect our AC system. He was extremely knowledgeable, incredibly kind, and explained things very well. I work in construction and can tell you that Dominic is one of the best I’ve seen in years. Princeton air is very lucky to have him as an employee as he is SUCH AN ASSET to your company.

I also want to give a special thanks to Leah the customer service representative I spoke to. Also extremely kind and helpful. I have had the worst two weeks of my life and two strangers taking the time to kind made my heart smile. Thanks again Leah and Dominic.
Anne Marie Riccobona
Wilver did a great job replacing my toilet. He was respectful and quickly diagnosed the problem. He came back with a beautiful Glacier toilet which he quickly installed. I highly recommend him for any toilet job!

I just had Alberto fix my furnace as my house was 60 degrees this morning…he diagnosed the issue quickly, got the part and installed it in record time! He was my angel of the hour and I will never forget all he did for me today. I highly recommend him if you have a heating issue.

I had Brian replace my electrical box and he did a fabulous job. I highly recommend him if u need it done.

Jose just fixed my AC problem as it was not coming on and a heat wave is coming this week! He was extremely knowledgeable, went outside to check everything (thorough) and got my cool air on expeditiously! He has a wonderful demeanor and a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend him for any of your AC needs this summer. Ask for him…you'll be happy you did!

Norman was great!!! He has come before. His advice and work were great!!!! Unfortunately Princeton Air, formerly a family run business, has been bought by a large corporate group, and we have chosen not to use them any longer
Grace Lee
The technician was thorough, knowledgeable and professional. He also called for an ETA and was punctual.
Petrana Kikuchi
I wanted to say a BIG Thank you to Princeton Air and Jesus C for coming to our rescue when AC in our house wasn’t working (despite it working fine 3 weeks ago). My daughter and her friends arrived on Friday afternoon for a girls weekend. Even though the compressor unit outside was running, no air was coming through the vents inside the house. After talking her through a few things over the phone (none of which resolved the issue), I called Princeton Air.
Despite it being already 5pm on Friday, they dispatched a technician who arrived within an hour. Jesus C called me several times to keep me updated about the repair. Within 45 min, the air was blowing COLD!!
I highly recommend this company. I am beyond grateful for the prompt and professional service we received.
Kathy Sell

Hasan Rekaj
We recently had a new AC unit installed by Princeton Air and had a great experience from start to finish. The installation went smoothly, the team was professional, knowledgeable, and respectful of our home, and we are very satisfied with the quality of the work.
We did have one minor issue after the installation, but Dominic McGinley responded quickly and took care of it right away. His prompt service and commitment to making sure everything was working properly really stood out.
Overall, we’re very happy with Princeton Air and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for HVAC services.

jack zeller
Replaced central a/c system. Team arrived early morning and explained the process thoroughly, asked if we had any questions, then proceeded with the work. The job was completed quickly, a couple of little glitches were resolved with no impact. Only concern I had, we did not receive a call the day before confirming installation and time. All in all I would still recommend Princeton Air.

Emergency Electrical Repairs We Handle

No two electrical emergencies look exactly alike. Whatever warning sign brought you to the phone, our team is equipped to handle it.

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. Aging wiring often presents warning signs that homeowners might overlook or dismiss as minor quirks. Professional emergency electrical service in Hillsborough Township can identify these developing issues and address them before they escalate into dangerous situations.

Electrical outlets, switches, or fixtures that produce crackling, popping, or buzzing noises in Hillsborough Township homes typically indicate loose or deteriorating connections that require immediate attention. Sparks during plug insertion signal the same dangerous condition. These warning sounds shouldn’t be dismissed as normal house settling and need professional electrical evaluation within hours, not days.

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. Our emergency electrical service in Hillsborough Township includes thorough post-storm assessments to identify hidden damage and complete all necessary repairs for safe system operation.

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.
