Consumer Comments for Residential Heating & Air Conditioning

Consumer from San Mateo, CA
Feb 22, 2024

Slightly pricier than competitors, but they are much more conversant with the various rebates you might qualify for. Consequently, while their quote was the most expensive for a heat pump prior to rebates, they were solidly in the middle of the pack after rebates, and they handled almost all of the paperwork for the rebates. Very friendly and professional staff. Quite happy with them.

Consumer from Palo Alto, CA
May 14, 2023

They spent a year (several service calls) trying to keep a 35 year furnace running, trying several new parts, but never succeeding. Finally they refused to service it any longer and offered to install a choice of two replacements ($8-9,000). They also suggested Valley Heating as an alternate repair service. Valley Heating solved the problem with one 15 minute inspection call: An intermittent power line connection due to an undersized wire nut from 35 years back.

Pricing seems high but they keep my unit running.

What to Do If You Need HVAC Repairs

Choosing New HVAC Equipment and Getting It Installed Properly

How well a new HVAC system performs, and how much it costs, depends heavily on its design and the quality of installation. It’s important to make the right decisions—and there are many to make. You also must make sure to get a fair contract.

HVAC Equipment Features to Consider

If you are installing new equipment, in addition to making choices about energy efficiency, you will need to decide whether to pay extra for various features. Here is a summary of the types of add-ons.

Are Heat Pumps the Future of HVAC?

Improved technology, generous tax credits and rebates, and lower utility bills might have us reconsider how to heat and cool our homes.

Maintaining Your HVAC Equipment

The most important maintenance task for HVAC systems is something you can do yourself—replacing the air filter. Check your filter monthly. When a filter has a matting of dirt—i.e., it’s difficult to see through when you hold it up to a light—it’s time to replace it.

HVAC Maintenance Contracts Are Usually Bad Buys

Rather than paying for individual maintenance visits and repair jobs, you might consider getting a service contract for air-conditioning and/or heating equipment. Many companies try to persuade customers to enter into such contracts.
