Best Heating & Air Conditioning/HVAC in United States
Well, we finally bit the bullet. After a little more than 20 years, we had rust coming out of our condensation lines. I did some research on Consumer reports and Yelp and found that Trane and Larson were both at the top in their products and services. I asked for an estimate and Larson quickly sent someone out. He was thorough in evaluating everything that was installed cheaply and incorrectly when the home was built. We were given the choice of three different units, single-speed, two-speed or variable-speed. Price increases from left to right, each having a higher efficiency (SEER) rating. We decided on the two-speed unit and were told hat this was the most popular option. We do have solar, but have fallen short of break even each year. My hopes are that the increased efficiency will help us close that gap. Installing two units was very expensive, but with the increased efficiency of the units we should see our return on investment in less than 10 years.
Okay. The crew shows up about 6:00am ready to go to work. We had Mike, who seemed to be the lead, Zach and Branden. All very skilled and had great attitudes. These guys definitely aren't afraid of work and getting dirty! Day one, they had both compressors out, the new ones back in and one of the air handlers in the attic replaced. That night we had heat from both units. Not bad! It was a long 12 hour day for the crew. The new compressor units are twice the height of my old ones. Wow, I look forward to the increased efficiency! These guys replaced almost everything. The hangars, pans, air handlers drain lines and thermostat wiring all was replaced. In addition, one of our fresh air intake ducts was replaced with a larger one to promote better airflow and other ducts were re positioned to the plenum for better flow. Last, all of our intakes and distribution regulators were sealed to prevent loss into the attic. It took these hard working guys, two long days to complete the job.
Last, because a hole was cut into our wall to facilitate the thermostat wiring installation and because they did replace both attic entrances, there were repairs to the Sheetrock that were needed. In about a week, they sent out a company called Response Crew handyman services. The repairman was a great guy who did a great job with the skip trowel texture. Job complete!
Well, so far the heater is working well and the air is being distributed more evenly throughout the house. Before, one room was blazing hot, while another was freezing! In addition, the lower speed of the two speed system keeps the air coming out of the registers from feeling like a blast furnace! So we wait. We wait for summer to gauge the efficiency of the new AC units. I will provide an update after being able to compare the old and the new. I must say it is a relief having our new system. We knew after seeing rust in the condensation water, we were on borrowed time. No more worries with the new system reliability, comfort and efficiency. I am very pleased with the quality of the products and work done be Larson. While expensive, replacement of your units will pay for itself in electrical provider savings. Thanks crew! I hated to see you go!

This company is my go-to place for air,water softener,RO, hot eater heater. Just moved in to our new home and wanted these systems inspected and maintained because the owner did not have any other information and I did not want to rely on the inspection reports (these guys are a joke... Would rather have individual trades people to examine the above systems). This company is fair professional efficient knowledgeable! These are the guys you want! Thank you so much. Higi and Mack are AWESOME!

James came out the same day, we had a fairly new unit and it just stopped working mid-day. He was professional, efficient and showed us exactly what happened. Got the air back on within 20 minutes. Highly recommend this company!

If any one is looking for a professional honest company to install their AC units look no further. This company goes above and beyond!!!
Phil came out to give me a quote and explained what it is they will do and also went over other options.
No pressure, on time and finished the job quickly. I was so impressed with his honesty and making sure I would get the units we needed.
I highly recommend this company and will continue to use them.
Fran was also a sweetheart to accommodate our date change. Thank you

Johnny and his partner did a great job diagnosing why my AC was only cooling sometimes, and fixed it. They took their time trying out different combinations of new parts, and never made me feel like they were rushing to get out of there. Johnny was affordable, friendly, and gave me insight about air conditioners along the way.
Would highly recommend!

Our air conditioning unit went out this summer, so we needed a brand new unit. After getting several quotes we chose to go with Arizona Air Experts, and we are glad we did. We spent lots of time researching air conditioning units and installers, and we feel we ended up with a great product for our needs, and also at a really great price. Some other companies came and some sounded great and offered some white glove touches, but Arizona Air Experts also included pretty much all of the same things, but the cost for a great quality product (American Standard) was significantly less expensive. We ended up replacing two units because the cost was reasonable for both. Very happy with the service and care of the installers. Start to finish, it was a great experience.

Cool Zone is the BEST! Quick response time both in communication and service when needed. I've never had to wait for a tech. They make me feel like the most important person at the time and aim to please. They explain clearly, up front. They answer questions and address any concerns. I've price shopped and find them to be comparable or less expensive than other places but the customer service and integrity is top notch. They do what's best for me and don't try to sell me products or services I don't need, but let me know when I do need something and take the time to show me why. Highly, highly recommend! Don't waste your time or money going elsewhere!

Appreciated the fast response when my system went down on a Friday night as guests were about to arrive. System was restored quickly and the weekend was saved.

I have been meaning to write a review for Dave for some time. My air conditioner broke down after 7 years of operating with no issues after buying the home. I had an archaic/obsolete model sitting on my roof that Dave would periodically maintain (My Mom gave me his contact info.). On the rare occasion that Dave didn't just trouble shoot issues I was having over the phone for free, any charges that I received for his work were not significant.
The AC broke down in the middle of August, and this was the first time that Dave had to do real work and he got it all done extremely fast. The fortunate side of my bad luck was that the unit broke down on a Friday, and Dave had my system installed and running by Monday evening. He made every effort to get the job done first thing in the morning, which is unheard of given the quick procurement of a model that fit in a confined working space, but unfortunately couldn't get the crane on time to have things back to normal on Monday morning. Really minor hiccup that Dave actively communicated with me on.
Given the expediency and efficiency that was delivered, I really feel that Dave over-delivered. Of course a new AC unit and cost of labor for this kind of job isn't going to be cheap, but in hindsight and having scoped out comps from time to time since, he was VERY AFFORDABLE. I am never going to go to anyone else for AC services.

A service company doesn't get any better than Dukes of Air. We came home on a Sunday afternoon to find our up-stairs A/C off and the temperature climbing. I called Dukes at 1PM, they had someone at our house at 2:15 and the the A/C was back up and running within an hour. Not only was the service done quickly, but they walked us through every step of the process - making sure we understood what was wrong with the system and what was normal wear on a 15 year old system.
Excellent local company.

Honest and reliable. David inspected the AC unit on a house that we are buying. He gave us an honest opinion without trying to upsell other unnecessary services. I highly recommend his services.

Amazing service!!! We used them last year to replace a part that was broken on our air conditioning. We had an issue with it again this year. They came out the same day to check it, although they were already booked for the day, knowing that we had a baby at home with this heat!
Dylan was amazing and helped in every way he could. He even brought us a portable air unit to use until we got the unit repaired with our warranty company. They have amazing customer service and we will definitely use them and refer them to everyone we know. Thanks again!

Micheal is my AC guy. Sure glad I found him. He's like our local cowboy, he gets on his horse, comes galloping over, and as fast as he got here, thats as fast as he has your AC up and running. So happy that he's come over as quick as he had to rescue me from this brutal desert heat. Thank you Micheal!!!

I was referred to Alan by Johnny's Air, another local guy who does repair and had great reviews. Alans air fixed my ac problem with honestly and professionalism. I will use them again. Its not easy to find honest service providers you can trust. My first estimate from another company was $1700.00 but Bob came to the house and fixed my ac for $320.00. Thanks for being honest.

Ideal Energy did an amazing job and were professional and courteous from start to finish. I initially met with Alex, who did a thorough energy audit of my house and gave a detailed explanation of the current status of my A/C, duct work and insulation. I had a lot of questions and Alex was able to provide me with detailed answers, which made me feel confident in choosing Ideal Energy to seal my attic and replace my duct work and insulation. Tony and his crew came out and were able to complete the project in only two days! They did a great job and left my house cleaner than when they arrived. Tony was very professional and answered any questions we had. Ideal Energy went above and I highly recommend them.

Wow, what a great company. Let me save anyone looking for a new HVAC system the trouble of shopping around. I recently purchased a new split Gas and AC system (5 Ton) 14 Seer from Desert Comfort Mechanical (DCM) and my experiences with Fadel and his entire team have been nothing short of exceptional. Many HVAC providers promise you great customer support and service but DCM and the entire team don't just talk the talk but they walk the walk in every interaction providing exception value and service. Even during the due diligence inspection they worked around my schedule to arrive at 6:00am so I could leave for work on time, It's refreshing to know that there are companies like DCM here in the PHX metro area that still know how to deliver exceptional service along with extraordinary value. Well Done Fadel, please pass on my many thanks to your team and you for delivering a pain free experience. You can be certain that you and your company (DCM) are the one and only I'll have on speed dial.

I had an issue with one the tech's that came out yesterday and I submitted a less than stellar review. I had used them in the past and they were very professional and got the job completed in a timely manner. Travis immediately called me personally to apologize and come up with a solution to my complaint. Two Tech's arrived today, were very helpful and resolved my issue. I was happy to get everything resolved and appreciate the response from the ownership. Very difficult to find companies now days that strive for great customer service. Proskill is a company that does.

New A/C
About a month ago I replaced our aging/dead 4 ton Goodman (very low quality, 14+ year old contractor grade) A/C with a Trane 4 ton 18 Seer variable speed heat pump. Trane got the bare edge against Carrier in the latest Consumer Reports survey (Don't do Lennox!)
It normally runs at such low speeds that I have to open the cabinet door to see if it is actually running. I have found it completely off one time in a month. I cranks down the compressor, the outdoor unit fan, and the air handler fan to accommodate the demand it senses.
These guys did the work. They were the best price by a significant margin. I'm a degreed mechanical engineer with some a/c experience (I used to be an apprentice installer), and I tell you these guys did all of the right things to make the installation perfect.
My next door neighbor, a realtor who seems to know lots about this kind of stuff saw the truck in my drive when I was out there and told me I had selected the very best company in The Valley. Well? That was heartening:
