Here in southern Georgia, our summers can be extremely hot and humid. Trying to live in a home without A/C a South Georgia summer isn't just a bad idea; it can be downright deadly. Fortunately, Liberty Heating & Air is here to help with all of your A/C needs. There's no A/C issue that our highly trained HVAC technicians haven't seen before, and no job too small or large for us to tackle.

We're authorized to service Goodman to Carrier brands, but the truth is it doesn't matter what A/C unit brand you have - our team can fix it all. If your unit is beyond repair, we can walk you through the process of installing a new A/C system and suggest appropriate units that will work well for your home.
Here are just a few of the most common A/C repair services we offer in Crescent and the surrounding area:
Once springtime rolls around, it's very important that you keep your eyes and ears open for any potential warning signs that your A/C unit needs to be repaired. The last thing you need is to be caught off guard when June, July, and August are in full swing. Knowledge is power, and at Liberty Heating & Air, committed to keeping our customers in the loop about potential A/C repair warning signs. That way, you can take preventative steps rather than reactive ones.
Don't be alarmed if your A/C unit makes low-level noises throughout the day and night - these sounds are completely normal. However, if you hear loud, unusually abrupt noises coming from your unit, it may be time to have it repaired. Buzzing or rattling noises can mean a part is loose, while grinding or whistling can signal a more serious problem. Because these types of issues won't work themselves out on their own, a professional is needed to diagnose and correct the problem.
If you notice strange, smelly odors permeating throughout your home, your first instinct may be to grab the air freshener. However, unpleasant odors can be a sign that your A/C unit needs attention. Our A/C repair techs will let you know what's going on and how a potential issue can be remediated with a quick diagnostic test.
Your A/C unit needs refrigerant to keep your home cool and comfortable when it's hot outside. It's common for condensation to accumulate as your system cools your home. With that said, if you notice pooling water or an active leak coming from your A/C system, it's time to call an A/C repair tech ASAP. Leaks can cause extensive damage to your home, and the problem needs to be addressed quickly.
South Georgia isn't known for its freezing temperatures, but one thing is for sure - wintertime in Crescent can get very cold. When the temps begin to drop, your home's furnace works properly. Modern homes have come a long way since the days of wood and coal. Your home's heater is complicated, and when one component fails, the entire system can be affected. In situations like these, it's important not to panic. Instead, give Liberty Heating & Air a call. Our trustworthy team of heating repair experts have the knowledge and training to repair your furnace fast, so you can get back to enjoying your home.
Here are just a few of the most common issues that we can help repair:
Today's heating systems are complex. At Liberty Heating & Air, our heating repair technicians receive ongoing training in all aspects of heating technology. That way, their skills stay sharp, and their techniques remain up to date. However, you don't need to be an expert to spot common signs that your heater may need to be repaired.
As colder months approach in Georgia, try to be aware of the following red flags:
You're probably used to a more expensive electricity bill when winter hits Crescent. However, if you notice a huge price jump over last year's bill, it could be a sign that something is wrong with your heating system. Utility companies are known for raising prices gradually, but a dramatic leap is a cause for concern.
Does your heater seem to work perfectly in some areas of your house but not others? Are some rooms too hot while others are drafty and cold? If so, your heater may need repairing. This is a common issue in older homes and requires an expert to inspect your heater and ducts for airflow problems.
If the air in your house is hazy no matter how much you dust, your heater may be the problem. A furnace that circulates mildew, dust, and other harmful particles isn't working correctly. This issue is particularly bad for people with asthma or respiratory illnesses. If you haven't changed your home's air filter recently, be sure to do so. If the problem persists, it's time to call Liberty Heating & Air.
You and your family depend on your home's A/C system to keep you cool and comfortable during the hottest months of the year. Unfortunately, breakdowns happen at the worst possible times - like in the middle of July when temperatures are over 90 degrees. If you have had to repair your A/C system more and more often, investing in a new cooling system will save you time and money in the long run.
As an Authorized Carrier and Goodman dealer - two of the most recognized and respected brands in our industry - we have the highest quality units available. We handle every aspect of your new A/C installation from start to finish. That way, you can focus on living your life rather than worrying about the next time your A/C goes out.
Keep an eye out for these warning signs:
If you have kept your unit well-maintained and changed your air filter regularly, you shouldn't experience this problem. If you do, and your system is old, it can be more cost-effective to replace it and have your duct system analyzed to fix the root cause of your dust issue.
If it feels unusually sticky in your home, like you just spent a few hours outside in the summertime, there's a good chance that something is seriously wrong with your air conditioning. Your air conditioner's job is to pull moisture out of the air to keep your feeling cool inside. When that process fails, it can increase your risk of mold and mildew growth - and that's just the start.
When your repair bills end up costing more than a down payment on a new A/C system, it might make more financial sense to invest in a more modern unit. Compare how much it costs to have our maintenance technicians perform regular service vs. the cost of a new air conditioning installation. The results may surprise you.

ADDS online record of county taxes paid through 2022; ADDS links to Georgia Constitution, Official Code of Georgia Annotated (O.C.G.A.), Georgia tax liens; ADDS unpaid taxes as disqualifying to run for or hold office
Georgia Department of Revenue online records show that Clayton County District 3 Commissioner Felicia Franklin has several tax liens dating back to 2018 on her Jonesboro home. Yet on March 4, 2020, Franklin swore in her Declaration of Candidacy and Affidavit that she owed no state taxes—which carries a felony false statements penalty for those who file the affidavit.
Under state law, unpaid taxes disqualify a candidate from running for or holding office, unless the candidate has made arrangements or a payment plan with the Department of Revenue. At the time Franklin ran for reelection, she still owed two years’ back taxes to the state, and she owed a third year after the election:
The affidavit reads in part, “I am not a defaulter for any federal, state, county, municipal or school system taxes required of such officeholder or candidate if such person has been finally adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction to owe those taxes, but such ineligibility may be removed at any time by full payment thereof, or by making payments to the tax authority pursuant to a payment plan, or under such other conditions as the General Assembly may provide by general law (pursuant to Ga. Const. Art. II, Sec. II, paragraph III); I will not knowingly violate any provisions fo the Georgia Election Code (O.C.G.A. § 21-2) or the rules or regulations adopted thereunder…”
Franklin was reelected while she owed the State of Georgia $4,761.30 in taxes and a total of $5,074. As of press time, online tax lien records show Franklin still owes that money to the Georgia Department of Revenue. Attempts to reach Franklin by phone, e-mail, and in person before press time were unsuccessful.
Franklin, who frequently lectures county staff and other commissioners on “fiduciary responsibility,” also has a case pending in June before the Georgia Ethics Commission about numerous campaign expenditures and payments. Franklin’s case was to have been heard at the March meeting until she obtained counsel the night before to bump the hearing to the next quarterly meeting.
According to the Georgia Department of Revenue, the state put a lien of $2,696.28 on Franklin’s Jonesboro home on May 23, 2022. A payment of $2,823.85 is due on May 23, 2023, with interest to accrue after that date:
Franklin’s home has another Georgia tax lien for $2,065.02 dated January 28. That payment of $2,251.14 is due on May 23 to avoid additional interest:
Franklin’s Clayton County taxes show as having been paid through 2022.
Recently, Franklin lectured a forensic auditor from Mauldin and Jenkins, David Roberts, after he presented findings that BOC and department head travel expenses, as well as commissioner aide expense records were “inconsistent.” Some of Franklin’s travel and aide expenses were among those that came under scrutiny. While dressing down Roberts during the public meeting, Franklin asserted that she herself had had experience as an internal auditor. The Clayton Crescent was not able to confirm Franklin’s claim and Franklin did not respond to our request for more information about when, where, and for whom she had performed in that capacity.
Franklin, who is employed as an insurance agent, briefly held an active Georgia real estate license. According to the Georgia Real Estate Commission, Franklin passed the licensing exam but failed to complete education requirements. She was licensed as a salesperson on August 3, 2018. The following year, on August 4, 2019, Franklin’s license was listed as “lapsed-education not completed.” On August 17, 2020, her license was reinstated as active until May 25, 2022. That day, her license reverted to inactive status through May 31, 2022. On June 1, 2022, her license was listed as “failed to renew-lapsed.”
The Clayton Crescent attempted to contact Franklin by voicemail message, e-mail, and in person at BOC headquarters. According to the receptionist, Franklin’s constituent aide, Kayla Collier, said Franklin was out sick.

The Clayton Crescent asked candidates who are running for the Georgia House District 75 seat vacated by former Rep. Mike Glanton to answer some questions about their priorities and key issues like the jet fuel tax, education, firearms, abortion, and LGBTQ+ rights.
All three candidates—Herman “Drew” Andrews (D), Della Ashley (R), and Eric Bell II (D)—got the survey at the same time and all responded. Each question required a short answer and candidates were told that overly long answers (more than a few sentences or a short paragraph) would be edited for space.
You can see candidate filings with the Georgia Campaign Finance Commission and Clayton County’s EasyFile portal.

Willie Fritz, who led Tulane to a 10-2 record and the right to host the American Athletic Conference championship game this season, remains the front-runner to become the new head coach at Georgia Tech.Reports earlier Sunday indicated the deal between Fritz and Georgia Tech was imminent, but as of Sunday night, an agreement was not in place between the two sides.

Willie Fritz, who led Tulane to a 10-2 record and the right to host the American Athletic Conference championship game this season, remains the front-runner to become the new head coach at Georgia Tech.
Reports earlier Sunday indicated the deal between Fritz and Georgia Tech was imminent, but as of Sunday night, an agreement was not in place between the two sides. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution said “all indications point” to Fritz becoming the Yellow Jackets’ new coach, but that it “could take a few days to complete” a deal.
I need to clarify and retract my earlier tweet about the Georgia Tech coaching search and will accept all grief directed my way. My understanding is that a deal is not in place. However, all signs point to Willie Fritz as Tech’s next head coach.https://t.co/QMpUjP9SUa
— Ken Sugiura (@ksugiuraajc) November 28, 2022
If Fritz heads to the Yellow Jackets, it isn’t immediately clear if he will coach Saturday’s AAC title game against UCF at Yulman Stadium. Even if he does, it would seem unlikely if he coaches the bowl game, which would likely be the Cotton Bowl if the Green Wave defeats the Knights to become the highest-ranked champion of the Group of 5 schools.
Georgia Tech was looking to move quickly after season’s end to manage both sides of the transfer portal, which re-opens next week. And indeed, this came together quickly, as Fritz’s name only became connected with the opening in recent days and, according to ESPN’s Pete Thamel, interviewed on Sunday.
Georgia Tech fired athletic director Brent Stansbury and head coach Geoff Collins in late September after a 1-3 start. The school named J Batt as its new athletic director last month, with his first task to hire Collins’ replacement. Batt spent the last five years as executive deputy director of Athletics, chief operating officer, and chief revenue officer at the University of Alabama.
Fritz, 62, led Tulane to three bowl games in his first six seasons before the breakthrough 2022 campaign.
After going 2-10 in a challenging 2021 campaign that began with Tulane spending nearly a month in Birmingham, Alabama, and losing a marquee home game with Oklahoma because of Hurricane Ida, Fritz was able to keep his team primarily intact and make key acquisitions in the transfer portal era, and the result was an eight-win improvement – a performance that is likely to garner Fritz consideration for national coach of the year awards.
After getting expected lopsided victories over UMass and Alcorn State to begin the season, Fritz got a marquee win at Kansas State on Sept. 17, 17-10, that became even more magnified when the Wildcats moved into the top 25.
On Oct. 16, the Green Wave entered the top 25 for the first time since its undefeated 1998 season and has remained there for seven consecutive weeks.
Friday’s 27-24 victory at Cincinnati not only earned Tulane the right to host next weekend’s American Athletic Conference championship game, but gave the Green Wave its first victory over a team ranked in The Associated Press poll since 1984 in 62 tries, snapping the longest such active streak among FBS schools.
Fritz has ties to Georgia, having coached two seasons at Georgia Southern before accepting the Tulane position in December 2015. He went 18-7 with the Eagles.
In this, the third season of nine or more wins in the last 49 years Uptown, the Green Wave’s head coach could be departing on the heels of that success.
In 1998, following an 11-0 regular season, Tommy Bowden left Tulane to accept the Clemson job.
In the spring after a 9-3 season in 1979, Larry Smith left Tulane to take the job at Arizona.
And now, it appears, Willie Fritz could be joining the list.
Decision for Fritz to leave Tulane for Georgia Tech makes sense

Crescent Communities this week announced the debut of RENDER by Crescent Communities with the commencement of construction of RENDER Covington. The exact address was not disclosed.
RENDER Covington will be closely followed by communities in other cities throughout the Sunbelt region in the weeks ahead.
“With the introduction of the RENDER brand and product, Crescent Communities will leverage design and construction efficiencies to enhance the company’s ability to continue delivering thoughtful design, well-appointed homes and amenities, and local character at an attractive price point for residents,” the company said in a press release. “RENDER communities will be developed in suburban neighborhoods, allowing residents convenient access to area amenities and employment with more approachable rents compared to those in high-density urban markets.
The RENDER community amenities will include centralized lobby and leasing areas, self-service package areas, fitness centers, and multipurpose rooms that can serve as coworking lounges. Abundant outdoor spaces will provide opportunities for residents to grill, dine, socialize, swim, and relax. Select locations will also offer dog parks.
“Our expansion into new suburban markets with RENDER was fueled by the continued growing demand for quality multifamily housing in areas outside of the urban core,” Jay Curran, President of Multifamily at Crescent Communities, said. “We knew we could bring our resident-oriented approach and design expertise into these markets and offer renters thoughtfully crafted communities rich in character, but at a more approachable price point. The RENDER product will allow us to scale the offering and bring more homes to the market faster while keeping the renters’ desire for beautiful homes with amenities they desire at the forefront.”
The first community of 315 apartment homes, located in Covington, GA, will be known as RENDER Covington and will offer a three-story scale consistent with surrounding single-family homes. The community will be located 40 minutes east of Atlanta’s urban core with access to the Eastside Trail, a 2.5-mile multi-use greenway trail that runs from Chimney Park to Eastside High School. The main street within RENDER Covington will be named “Delk Drive,” as a tribute to Cheryl Delk, one of the largest proponents and driving forces behind the Eastside Trail and a beloved Covington community member.
Fortune Johnson will oversee construction, with architecture led by Dwell Design Studio. Construction is slated to begin in early 2022, with the first homes delivered in late 2023.
Crescent Communities has plans to continue growing its footprint in the greater Atlanta area with more announcements to come. In addition to the construction of NOVEL Midtown and NOVEL West Midtown, which are currently underway, RENDER Covington will be Crescent Communities’ eighth multifamily family investment in the Atlanta market.
