Good to know — what these prices do and don't include

  • No travel fees anywhere in our Maryland / DMV service area.
  • These are cleaning & inspection services. Repairs, replacement parts, and refrigerant work are not included — if we find an issue, it's documented in your report with a recommendation.
  • "Accessible evaporator cleaning" means cleaning the coil surfaces reachable without opening refrigerant lines or removing the coil.
  • Blower-wheel removal is included in Premium Deep Clean only.
  • Severely neglected equipment can take additional time — any extra work is always quoted and approved before it begins.
  • Every price is confirmed up front. No estimates, no meter, no surprise line items.

Customer review

"The blower hadn't been cleaned in years. He took out the blower, cleaned everything — put it back in and everything was working great. He has integrity and pride in his work. That's hard to come by in the HVAC world. He will give you an honest quote and advice."

The call: A/C grinding and barely cooling during a heat wave. Diagnosed from a homeowner's video within minutes — a blower that hadn't been cleaned in years.

The visit: Full blower removal and deep clean, reassembly, and an outdoor condenser inspection that caught heavy coil buildup.

The result: Cooling restored the same day, with photos documenting every step.

Why Maintenance Matters

Small maintenance issues become expensive system problems.

Restricted airflow, dirty coils, drainage problems, and worn electrical components can reduce comfort and place unnecessary strain on HVAC equipment. Apex documents these conditions before they become surprises.

52%

Space heating and air conditioning together account for 52% of a U.S. household's annual energy consumption (2020) — how well your system runs is real money.

5–15%

Routinely replacing or cleaning a dirty air filter can lower an air conditioner's energy consumption by 5–15 percent.

20–30%

In homes with ducts, about 20 to 30 percent of the air that moves through the duct system is lost to leaks, holes, and poorly connected ducts.
