On time. Completed work on all units … Heater, air conditioner, and hot water heater … Within the time frame.
After a few mishaps, Princeton Air came through and got my AC system running when the temperatures are soaring.

Thanks to Will and my technician, Alberto, for getting everything fixed.

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.

Maurice is fantastic.
Prompt and knowledgeable. Great technician.
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.
Eric M. was prompt, professional, courteous and quite helpful. I become a better consumer when I understand the problem & possible solutions. Eric was willing to answer my questions and made me feel secure that he would follow up to help fix our problem.

Notice a problem with the humidity in my home, called and got a service appointment in the same day. Will D came out and sure enough, confirmed there was a problem, explained what exactly was happening, why it was happening and how to check that it was working correctly. His demeanor was pleasant, he was professional and seemed to be quite knowledge!
Great service. Domenic was so helpful and explained everything done.
Jermaine Richmond was very knowledgeable and explained my plumbing issue throughly. Thank you.
Pretty micron air was quick to fix my sewer

Installation of water heater hvac and furnace – very professional and process oriented –
The technician who came was Jonathan Redondo. He was very knowledgeable and did an excellent job! I would highly recommend him .
Christian and Mike were professional, thorough, patient, and kind throughout my heating boiler installation.
Always excellent service with McAllister.
Robert came to check my 2 carbon monoxide detectors, which were very old. I decided to have him go ahead and replace them with smoke detector/ carbon monoxide combination units. He was very polite and efficient .
Jihmy and Asterson did an outstanding job and were extremely professional during a recent installation of a mini split and air handler. They communicated well, kept the house clean and did the job with a level of professionalism and expertise that was refreshing.
Good job
Maurice Gaines who cleaned and serviced my air conditioner was fantastic! He was fast, respectful and very fast with the repairs.

He made me feel like I was getting the full respect and honesty I so needed for something so important and really appreciated the time he took to explain every and answer all my millions of questions. Also Princeton Air communications were fast and accurate , leaving no question unanswered as to timing and confirmation of appointment. I’m so happy with their staff and with Maurice- he’s a gem!
Thank you!
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.
We recently used Princeton Air to install a new heater. They gave us lots of options, explained each one thoroughly, they arrived promptly on installation day and did a great job. The price was the lowest of three companies I contacted for estimates. Five stars!
Always professional and informative.

Why Heating Systems Suddenly Fail

Most heating breakdowns in New Brunswick happen during New Jersey’s coldest weather. What appears as a sudden failure is typically the result of gradual component wear that reaches a breaking point. Your furnace or boiler faces peak winter demand and can’t keep up.

Heating system breakdowns in New Brunswick often catch homeowners off guard, but these failures usually stem from predictable causes that professional repair can address quickly. The following issues represent the primary reasons residents throughout New Brunswick need emergency heating service during cold weather periods.

Regular inspection and service keep heating systems in New Brunswick running properly. Skip this maintenance, and components deteriorate more quickly while performance declines.

Electrical issues like worn wiring, loose connections, or malfunctioning control boards often cause heating system failures in New Brunswick, where older homes near Rutgers University and downtown areas may have aging electrical components that struggle with modern heating demands.

Dust accumulation and dirty filters trigger automatic safety shutoffs in heating systems throughout New Brunswick. The humid climate near the Raritan River speeds up debris buildup that blocks proper airflow and combustion.

Thermostat malfunctions or faulty communication between heating components can trigger emergency calls in New Brunswick homes, even when the actual heating unit operates normally.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you service all heating system brands in New Brunswick?

Our technicians work on all major heating brands and system types found in New Brunswick homes. From gas furnaces and oil boilers common in older neighborhoods near Rutgers University to modern heat pumps and ductless mini-splits, we have the training and tools to diagnose problems across different manufacturers and technologies. This broad experience means we can quickly identify what’s wrong. We’ll get your specific system running again, regardless of the brand or model heating your home.

When should I consider replacing rather than repairing my heating system in New Brunswick?

Systems that are 15+ years old, need repairs multiple times per season, or can’t maintain consistent temperatures throughout your New Brunswick home often make better candidates for replacement than continued repairs. Our technicians assess your equipment’s condition during emergency heating repair in New Brunswick. We provide honest guidance about whether fixing or replacing makes more financial sense. Age alone doesn’t determine the decision, but when repair costs start adding up on an older system, replacement typically offers better long-term value and reliability.

What should I check before calling for emergency heating service in New Brunswick?

Before calling for emergency heating repair in New Brunswick, verify your thermostat is set to “heat” and at least 3-5 degrees above the current room temperature. Also check that your furnace’s power switch is in the “on” position. Make sure no circuit breakers have tripped in your electrical panel. These simple checks resolve about 20% of heating calls. If your system still won’t start, the problem needs professional diagnosis to identify the actual cause.

Do older heating systems in New Brunswick need emergency repairs more often?

Yes, heating systems over 10-15 years old in New Brunswick break down more frequently. This happens especially when maintenance gets skipped. Age causes internal components like heat exchangers, blower motors, and control boards to wear down. Efficiency drops as seals deteriorate and moving parts develop more friction. Preventive maintenance catches these aging issues early and keeps older systems running through New Jersey’s demanding winter months. This reduces your chances of needing emergency heating repair in New Brunswick.

Can an emergency heating failure affect other systems in my New Brunswick home?

Absolutely. A heating failure creates a domino effect throughout your New Brunswick home as indoor temperatures drop. Pipes become vulnerable to freezing, humidity levels shift dramatically, and basic routines like cooking and bathing become uncomfortable or impossible. New Jersey’s winter conditions make these secondary problems develop quickly. Emergency heating repair in New Brunswick needs to happen fast to prevent one problem from turning into several costly issues.
