Renters frequently ask questions like "What rights do renters have in Nevada?", "What are landlords responsible for in Nevada?", and "How long does a landlord have to fix air conditioning in Nevada?"

After installing and servicing HVAC equipment in Nevada for many years, I have become very selective about the systems I recommend for the average homeowner. The desert climate is demanding. Long cooling seasons, intense summer heat, and large temperature swings can expose weaknesses in equipment very quickly. Among the systems I consistently trust are the American Standard 14 SEER2 and 15 SEER2 gas split systems.

I can tell you exactly what a struggling system sounds like before the homeowner ever notices anything's wrong.

Tourism. Entertainment. Maybe the neon lights of the Strip. But none of that would survive a single summer afternoon without something almost nobody thinks about. Air conditioning.
