Consumer Comments for Rooter Hero

Allied Aire was sold and service is now provided by Rooter - Pro, or some such name. When the substitute provider showed up, I felt as if I'd been subjected to a bait and switch scheme, If I had known Allied Aire was no longer in business, I would have called another local HVAC service

I have been using and recommending Allied Aire for years. I recently had a Heat Pump installed for heating and cooling. They did their usual timely and professional work. I learned that Arnie Steiner is/has retired and sold the company, apparently to Rooter Hero of San Francisco. I hope that company maintains the high quality of Allied Aire.

Work quality is excellent and staff is very professional and pleasant. Pricing is on the high side though.

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.
