Common Signs That
You Need AC Repair in

The last thing you need is to be caught off guard when June, July, and August are in full swing.

Loud-Unusual-Noises
Loud, Unusual Noises

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.

Strong-Odors
Strong Odors

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.

Refrigerant or Water Leaks
Refrigerant or Water Leaks

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.

 Heating And Cooling Repair Midway, GA

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:

Expensive Heating Bill

You're probably used to a more expensive electricity bill when winter hits Midway. 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.

Uneven Heating
Uneven-Heating

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.

Unhealthy Air Quality
Unhealthy Air Quality

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.

New AC Installation
in Midway, GA

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.

Curious when it might be time for a new A/C system?

Keep an eye out for these warning signs:

Dusty Furniture

 HVAC Midway, GA

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.

High Humidity

 HVAC Repair Services Midway, GA

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.

Frequent Repairs

 HVAC Services Midway, GA

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.

EMS gets a new home in Midway

MIDWAY — Liberty County’s EMS units have been rolling out of its new home in east Liberty County for a couple of weeks but the county and the department were excited nonetheless to open it to the public Friday.

County officials cut the ribbon on the $2.65 million, 5,600-square foot building just off Highway 17, replacing an aging structure adjacent to the county public works facility.

“It is a long time coming,” said EMS Director Crystal Hensler.

The new station has room for four ambulances. Two currently call it home, one a 24-hour unit and the other a unit that operates from 8 a.m.8 p.m.

The new building has emergency power in case of an outage and is built to withstand hurricane force winds. It also has the ability for expansion as the county, including the east end, continues to grow, County Administrator Joey Brown said.

“No capital project is without its own challenges,” he said. “Our soil and our own coastal climate made it sometimes challenging. But the team in this process was dedicated to seeing this to the end.”

County commission Chairman Donald Lovette said the EMS had been in “less than optimal housing, and they have not complained.”

“This building is a gift to them and to the citizens of Liberty County,” he said.

“It was not a functional station,” Hensler added. “Our crews work very, very hard and they deserve a place to be able to come home and decompress. They are working 24-hour shifts and get 48 hours off.”

First District Commissioner Marion Stevens recalled how far EMS service has come. Originally, funeral homes provided the ambulances to take patients. Later, the ambulances came out of the old Liberty Memorial Hospital on what was then called Highway 82.

“There was no extraction equipment,” he said. “We had to work two tow trucks to pull cars apart. So thanks to everyone. We have come a long way.”

Hensler also noted the county EMS, which is back under the auspices of the board of commissioners following the transfer of its license from Liberty Regional Medical Center, covers not just the county’s residents but also the nearly 15-mile stretch of I-95.

She also praised the EMTs and paramedics who make up the EMS team.

“This profession isn’t for everyone,” she said. “Sometimes we witness those taking their last breath. Although once in a while, this job has moments to celebrate. Sometimes, we are involved in someone taking their first breath. Our crews have assisted in delivering five healthy new residents into Liberty County and two of those were in the last three weeks.”

The new EMS station was built with special purpose local option sales tax proceeds, and the EMS headquarters on Hinesville’s South Main Street will be expanded and renovated, also with SPLOST money. County commissioners have authorized the EMS building to go out for construction drawings.

The EMS headquarters building will have more room for training, storage and administration and the new headquarters is projected to be about 5,900 square feet. It will be funded through SPLOST VII proceeds.

“Thanks to the power of the penny,” Commissioner Stevens said.

Commissioners OK rezoning for planned travel center off I-95

Liberty County commissioners have opened the gate for a planned new travel center.Pending the results of a traffic study, commissioners approved a rezoning for 5.79 acres off Highway 84 near Interstate 95 for a future travel center.“We picked this site and it is a good stopping site off I-95,” said Jeremy Crosby of JPC Design and Construction.Most of the property lies within Midway city limits, and Midway City Council members approved the rezoning request at their meeting Monday night.Plans call for th...

Liberty County commissioners have opened the gate for a planned new travel center.

Pending the results of a traffic study, commissioners approved a rezoning for 5.79 acres off Highway 84 near Interstate 95 for a future travel center.

“We picked this site and it is a good stopping site off I-95,” said Jeremy Crosby of JPC Design and Construction.

Most of the property lies within Midway city limits, and Midway City Council members approved the rezoning request at their meeting Monday night.

Plans call for the center to have three fast-food restaurants, two of which will have drive-throughs, comprising more than 4,000 square feet of restaurants. The travel center building is projected to be 30,000 square feet. It will have skylights and will be lighted well, Crosby said.

“It’s very open,” he said of the design.

The plans also call for 40 pumps under a canopy out front, and diesel pumps for tractor-trailer drivers in the rear.

“Truckers have electronic logs that force them to get off the road and rest, so they need spaces,” Crosby said. “They need a place to pull off and get rest and fuel and food.”

Crosby said the state Department of Transportation estimates there are 3,000 truck parking spaces fewer than what is needed on a nightly basis.

“We’re running a business,” he said, “but we’re also providing a service that’s needed in today’s e-commerce.”

The firm built a similar center in 2019 near Jackson at exit 205 off I-75. That center also has a 2,000 square foot gift shop.

“It’s been a big hit with the public,” Crosby said. “It’s shocked us with how successful it’s been.”

Though the plans call for 40 gas pumps, builders may have to cut back that number to 32, unless computer software issues can be worked out.

“They’re working on that,” Crosby told commissioners.

The City of Midway will provide water and sewer to the site, and Crosby said the rest of the tract may be developed in the future. Possible developments include a hotel or a truck service center.

Across the road from the Jackson travel center, a developer has put up one hotel that is full every night, Crosby said, and he has built a second one.

Based on sales at the Jackson location, Crosby projects the Midway site could bring in as much as $1.6 million a year in tax revenue, with bulk coming from sales tax proceeds of gasoline, diesel and inside sales.

The Midway location could generate even more gas tax and sales tax proceeds since it will have more pumps than the Jackson site, Crosby said.

County Administrator Joey Brown noted a traffic study will be required at the time of the site plan review. The study will look at the traffic projections, especially with the increased number of automobiles and tractor-trailers, and what improvements, such as new turn lanes or even a signal, may be needed.

Commission Chairman Donald Lovette said approving the rezoning from AR-1 to B-1 for the travel center shows commissioners are holding to their commitment to make the interchange more of an economic force.

“This is certainly moving in the right direction,” he said. “Now our challenge is to get them to come visit Liberty County.”

MIDWAY, Ga. (WTOC) - With Thanksgiving wrapping up, many are now turning their attention to Christmas.

That means, it’s time to find the perfect tree.

For some that have annual traditions of visiting the same tree farm each year, 2021 may be bittersweet.

A cherished Liberty County Christmas tree farmer is giving people one last opportunity to bring a little Georgia-grown cheer into their homes.

For nearly five decades, the Brewers have been growing Christmas trees in Liberty County. But after 50 years of service to the community, this might be their last big holiday season.

For the Brewer family, growing Christmas trees has been a family affair since 1972.

“My oldest son and I put them in, just a few out there, in what is our parking lot right now. We didn’t sell anything until ‘82,” said farmer, Paschal Brewer.

At one time, these Christmas trees spanned 20 acres across Midway, Ga.

Even though their operation isn’t quite as large as it used to be, the Brewers are still committed to spreading holiday cheer.

“We have, I think, the best of both. You can go and cut the trees that we grow out here. Or, I’ve got 500 Frasier firs coming in here, a tractor trailer load,” said Brewer.

85 of those trees have already been claimed, even before the Brewer’s farm officially opened for the season.

“We have people that come up to Savannah and they’ll come up from deep Florida. They’ll party, get a tree, and go home. They have done that for years.” said Brewer.

After years of continued tradition for hundreds of families, this year will likely be the last time their tree comes from Midway. Georgia.

Since Christmas trees take at least six years to grow combined with health concerns, the Brewers have decided what trees they have in the ground will be the last ones to grow on their farm.

“I don’t know that we will have trees to sell next year. If we do have a few, if any of our children want to come and handle them, they’ll be able to,” said Brewer.

Looking back on his career of cultivating memories, there is one thing Paschal Brewer will miss the most.

“The people coming out, particularly the school kids .We had kindergarten kids. I remember one year we had 3,500 from ten different counties. A lot of those kindergarten kids are adults with children that age themselves now,” said Brewer.

For the thousands of families that have visited over the years, they have taken home more than a piece of Christmas.

“A lot of folks that do this say they don’t sell trees, they sell family memories, and we definitely do that,” said Brewer.

The Christmas tree farm opening day is Friday after Thanksgiving from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

They Brewer’s are opening the following weekends from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

Midway could be home of new casino as Georgia considers legalizing gambling

MIDWAY, Ga. (WTOC) - An idea is being discussed that could very well be a game changer for a small Liberty County town. Lawmakers and community leaders are looking at a site in Midway that could be used to build a casino.

MIDWAY, Ga. (WTOC) - An idea is being discussed that could very well be a game changer for a small Liberty County town. Lawmakers and community leaders are looking at a site in Midway that could be used to build a casino. This casino, if approved by voters, could impact all of Coastal Georgia.

“We’re hoping this year it may be successful because we know it would be a tremendous benefit to the county,” said Ronald Tolley, the CEO of Liberty County Development Authority.

For the last five years several Georgia representatives have been working to pass legislation that would legalize casino gambling. Legalization would require a two-thirds vote by the Georgia General Assembly, the signature of the governor and voter approval by ballot referendum.

“I will not become a gambler, but I do listen to the people and 70% of the people in Georgia, with comparable numbers in Liberty County, a little higher in Liberty, have said give us the right to vote,” said Rep. Al Williams, who represents District 168 in the Georgia House of Representatives.

Williams says the expansion of gambling is back on the table and, again, he and other sponsors like Rep. Ron Stephens are urging for casino development. Midway could possibly secure one of the casino sites.

“You have approximately 85,000 cars per day that pass this location with the I-95 traffic,” said Tolley.

Commercial real estate executive Rick Lackey says this site could bring between 5,000 and 7,000 tourists a day and that the site has the amenities casino operators look for. He says some of the best sites for a casino are in and around Savannah, including Midway.

“They’re going to want a minimum of 100 acres with freeway exposure on an exit ramp,” said Lackey.

Interstates 16 and 95 bring a steady flow of drivers through the area, including those on their way to vacation destinations in Florida. Between 30 and 35 million people live within a 5 hour drive of the proposed locations.

Williams says a casino has a big economic impact and for those who don’t gamble, they can still reap the benefits.

“This could generate revenue of taxes between $3-5 million for Georgia,” says Williams. “This is the only major industry we’ll ever be able to recruit that is not asking for tax abatement, they’re not asking for us to give them land. They’re not asking for anything. They’re just bringing 800-1,200 permanent jobs with an average income of $42,000 a year plus benefits.”

Officials say this would keep money flowing into the state.

Tolley says the Liberty County Board of Commissioners and the City of Midway have already approved for it to go to a countywide referendum if the state passes it.

“No one is going to force anyone to go in that casino and gamble the first dollar. All you’re doing is offering people the opportunity,” said Tolley.

“We’ve investigated this, we think it’s a great opportunity and it’s an opportune time. Georgia, right now, needs new jobs,” said Lackey.
