Mo Kavandi, owner of Airco, is one of the most honest and dedicated professionals in the industry.
Background: The condensation line to our Lennox AC unit was clogged, overflowing and flooding the space below the unit (we had to pump 1.5 gallons out!) Our home warranty provider, Fidelity, initially sent us Marina Heating and Air Conditioning out of Irvine. The tech was a young guy who said he didn't know how to unclog the line then wrote up a report saying it was somewhere in the slab. He said that a new condensation line needed to be installed, which meant ripping out the ceiling and drywall and running a new line to the washing machine drain line. It also would require a permanent pump to be put in the unit, which would run when overflowing again. After the report was submitted, Fidelity would not return our phone calls despite a record-breaking heat wave.
Upon referral from a trusted plumber, we contacted Mo at Airco. He made time in his busy schedule to come to our house. He indicated that when condensations lines are so backed up with residential properties, it was always due to the exit point of the PVC line, which would be outside protruding from the slab outside. With a little effort, he found it, ran compressed hydrogen down the line and blew out the clog. IT WAS FIXED! And no need for tearing out walls and ceilings and running new lines, no need for a pump.
Although Fidelity has not agreed to pay for Airco, I am extremely happy we called him as we can now face this oncoming heat wave (temperatures estimated at 100 degrees!)
