Really good service from these guys.Used them to Install A/C. Had an issue during a heat wave months later and were at the house in under an hour! Usually impossible to get someone out during a heat wave. Also, it was the thermostat that was broken so not even their fault.

Did not have the same highly regarded experience of others

Dan Dickson is the most honorable HVAC guy out there. Very busy, but inexpensive and very honorable. Don't go anywhere else. The very best.

Maintaining HVAC Equipment

The most important maintenance task for both heating and cooling 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.
