Packaged Terminal Air Conditioners (PTACs) are small heating or cooling units that attach through walls. These can be heat pumps for heating and cooling or standard electric heating and cooling. PTACs also can be only cooling units. Typically they're used for small spaces, such as hotel rooms or some assisted living facilities.
Call Indi HVAC Corp. today for PTACs and other air conditioning services at (516) 820-1005 . Ask about free estimates.
It's important to take care of your Air conditioning unit so it
With proper maintenance and cleaning your PTAC unit should keep you comfortable for a long, long time.
If it does act up, contact us and we will be glad to diagnose the problem and offer you sensible solutions. We are experienced in heating, ventilation, air conditioning –- all functions of your packaged terminal air conditioner.
When a PTAC has trouble, it’s often due to poor maintenance or aging or defective parts.
As the owner, you can make a big difference by cleaning or replacing the filer whenever it becomes dirty. A clean filter is the first line of defense when it comes to providing the desired air movement, air quality and reliability.
We can help by providing periodic maintenance to skillfully clean all the parts and check for potential problems.
PTAC problems, solutions
Indi HVAC Corp. also can repair any problems with a PTAC:
• Frequent starts and stops
• Leaky or “spitting” systems
• Frozen coils
• Compressor problems etc.
Don’t neglect the problem; your utility bill will only climb while the system labors harder and does a less satisfactory job.
PTAC strengths
Modern technology is making PTACs stronger and quieter, even more reasons to install them in rooms that need to be more comfortable.
Installation isn’t as simple as 1-2-3. You may need to cut a hole through a wall or wrestle it onto a window sill, and you will need to attach a wall sleeve and an external grill whether you buy an electric or heat pump PTAC. Indi HVAC Corp. techs can do the job for you quickly and expertly, and we guarantee our work!
PTAC units also have become more energy efficient, which is good for the environment as well as your budget.
Heat pump vs. electric
Which PTAC system is better for you?
It depends on how you plan to use it.
Generally speaking, electric is better for New Yorkers who plan to use their PTAC for heating as well as cooling. The heat pump works better for summer cooling.
Allergyandair.com, which focuses on home heating and cooling products, notes that heat pump PTACs “usually cost more upfront to the tune of around $60 or $70. That higher upfront cost pays off in energy efficiency though, so you can expect to save a little on your electric bills for the life of the unit.”
Yet heat pump models aren’t as strong as electric PTACs when it comes to heating a room in a New York winter.

Call Indi HVAC Corp. . We will soon get your boiler heating your home or business. We’re veteran heating contractors, so we know where to look for the cause of any problem.
• If you lose heat, the problem could be in the thermostat, diaphragm, a valve or airlock.
• If your boiler is leaking, we have several suspects – starting with a broken seal, a malfunctioning part or rising pressure. A leak can lead to a drop in pressure or a broken valve.
• Unusual gurgling and banging in the boiler are signs of low water pressure, pump failure or “kettling,” a term for an accumulation of unwanted residue on the heat exchanger.
The same issues apply to combi-boilers, shorthand for combination boilers. They provide heat and hot water, too.
We have the staff to handle all these problems and more. Indi HVAC Corp. technicians are punctual and friendly, and customers give them great reviews for their work.

Or the furnace is making strange noises.
Or you have to keep raising the thermostat to get the room temperature where you want it.
Our technicians can find the problem and repair it as quickly and cost-effectively as possible.
Today’s gas furnaces are much more energy-efficient than older models, but they require a skilled person to understand how the parts work together and what may be wrong. A gas furnace includes a temperature control, a furnace control board, an ignition switch, a draft-induced fan, burners, a heat exchange and other components.
And gas furnaces vary. The non-condensing model vents exhaust gases from the house; the condensing furnace has two heat exchanges -– one to heat the air; and a modulating gas furnace keeps the temperature steady by continuously regulating the amount of fuel burned.
Yet we have all this information in our heads and on our phones, and we love to share it with customers.
Our vehicles carry many HVAC parts, so we arrive at your home ready to work. (We know you hate it when the repairman says, “Oh, I have to go back to the warehouse to get some parts.”)
We can tell you about the pros and cons of every brand, and we can help you make sure you are picking the right size of heater or HVAC system.
Proper installation includes many factors:
• What’s the size of the building and the layout? One story? Two stories?
• How about your lifestyle – size of family, do you use all the rooms all the time, etc. Are you night owls or day people?
• The siting (does the home face east to get the morning sun, for instance?)
• Does it have a skylight or tall windows that let in warmth?
• Your preferred budget.
• Will energy savings of a new system outweigh the cost of repairing the current heater?
• Does the duct system need repairs or is it in good shape?
We can help you with electric heaters, heat pumps, mini-split systems, whole-house heating systems, gas furnaces and more.
We can help you find a system that hits your desired price point, needs little upkeep, and holds the line on energy costs. This includes calculating the plusses and minuses of new, more energy-efficient systems that cost you money now but will recoup most of your cost via cheaper utility bills.
Above all, you want a company that is clear about its proposal, puts everything in writing, and stands behind its work! That’s Indi HVAC Corp. . We guarantee it!
Our techs are certified in HVAC specialties, and we are authorized to work on manufacturers’ warranties, more proof that we know what we are doing.
They have become more common in New York as people see their advantages include energy efficiency and versatility when it comes to specific spaces like spare rooms, garages and offices. And they don’t need ducts, which can leak or be dislodged over time.
We maintain and install ductless mini-splits. We specialize in Fujitsu and Mitsubishi models, always ranked among the top performers.
You are smart to analyze the pros and cons of tank-less and traditional water heaters. The short version: Tank-less water heaters cost significantly more money, but they take up less space, provide hot water immediately, and they are more energy efficient.
Call us and we will help you calculate the choice best for your wallet and your family. We don’t take a “one size fits all” approach.
It’s much better to hire an established company with a track record in the community, a local company that you can deal with face to face if you choose. Come by and see us. We’re right here n Brooklyn, at 2403 East 22nd Street

Our techs know how to resolve drainage issues. They’re equipped with a wet/dry vacuum and other equipment. They can expertly remove clogs that can shut a system down and allow mold and mildew to accumulate. We will end this problem before it causes health issues for you and your family.
If your AC isn’t working, the techs will check the capacitor, coil and other parts. They will look at the refrigerant level, examine blower fans and unravel kinks in refrigerant lines.
It’s important to maintain the proper level of refrigerant. Otherwise the system won’t remove humidity and heat from your home.
If your heat pump or ductless mini-split air conditioner quits working, we will locate the error code and determine the problem.
Your AC system may be fine but still not getting the job done because there are clogs or leaks in the ducts that deliver the air to your home. We can test the ducts and clean them if needed.
Because it’s outside, the condenser is vulnerable to dirt and other unwanted substances. A dirty coil can interfere with the condenser’s job of discharging the heat removed from your home. In turn this makes the unit labor harder, putting more stress on the system.
Average temperatures in July and August hit 84-85 degrees and September is not much better, averaging a high of 77 degrees. June’s high average is 80. Steady heat and humidity will tax ac systems and cause components to wear down.
Our vehicles carry many spare parts, allowing technicians to address the problem quickly, making your summer in the city more pleasant.
We guarantee our work. We’re not happy until you’re happy.
We know you can’t stay in business for long if your air conditioning problem is making tenants, employees or customers uncomfortable. We respond promptly when you call.
A refrigerant leak or even a low level of refrigerant can keep your unit from providing cold air. We stop the leak and make sure you have enough of the right kind of refrigerant to make your property cool again. Refrigerant leaks can cause nausea, headaches and coughing, so don’t delay if you suspect a refrigerant leak. Call us immediately.
Unusual noises indicate an inefficient system; it’s working harder yet producing unacceptable cooling and letting humidity build up. Parts could be broken or loose, debris could be in the unit, or the fan motor may be wearing out.
Does your system seem to randomly turn on or off? The problem could be in the thermostat or the sensors that help it run smoothly.
Our technicians frequently deal with natural gas piping, chilled/hot water piping, storage tanks, cooling towers, custom ductwork and other features of commercial HVAC.
They are certified, licensed and insured. Put their experience and training to work for you!
And you will have peace of mind because we guarantee our work.

Our techs arrive on time, politely listen to customers and offer a choice of solutions whenever possible. They’ve dealt with many problems and they’re always up for a new AC challenge.
You avoid many problems when you have a maintenance agreement with Indi HVAC Corp. . It includes regular checks of the system, everything from the condenser and the gauges to lubrication of moving parts, a thorough cleaning and calibration of the thermostat.
In our maintenance checks we often find small problems and fix them before they become big, expensive, time-consuming problems.
Try these simple ways for you to avoid breakdowns and save money:
• Change or clean the filters periodically and you will help the system run efficiently and lessen the chance of a breakdown. When filters become clogged with dust, debris and pet dander, they cause leaks and they force the AC to run longer yet deliver less cool air.
In effect you will pay far more in energy bills than a clean filter will cost.
An easy way to remember: On the day you receive your utility bill check the filter. If it’s accumulating dirt, mites and allergens, clean or replace it.
• Make sure that shrubs and tree branches aren’t interfering with the outside condenser unit. They can block airflow and hurt ac efficiency.
Indi HVAC Corp. techs also repair window AC units, mini-splits and PTACs – those packaged terminal air conditioners that deliver great cooling and heating for condominiums, apartments, sunrooms and other areas.
In addition, we install and repair water heaters, both conventional and tank-less, so you can get a comfortable shower after a hot summer day. ( Indi HVAC Corp. has a licensed plumbing contractor who repairs water heaters, leaky faucets and toilets, and other plumbing needs.)
We respond as quickly as possible to HVAC calls in Long Island, Brooklyn, Queens and Manhattan. Our office is in Sheepshead Bay and our number is (516) 820-1005 .
We welcome emergency calls seven days a week, 24 hours a day.
The U.S. Department of Energy says the same thing that our parents yelled when we were kids: “Close the windows and doors when the AC is on!”
“One of the top air conditioning problems is improper operation and heading the list under that category is open windows and outside doors,” the federal agency said. “So one of the easiest and most inexpensive problems to fix on our air conditioning troubleshooting mission is to make sure windows or doors are closed; otherwise you are undermining your air conditioner’s efficiency.”
The agency also said:
“Other common problems with existing air conditioners result from faulty installation, poor service procedures, and inadequate maintenance.”
Our qualified, conscientious technicians understand the ins and outs of air conditioners and they know how to fix them for the best possible price.
