Jorge and his team are capable, quick, and efficient in their work. We had a 40 year old furnace go out on us last year in the first week of winter. It only heated two rooms -- our living room and guest bedroom (the closest rooms the furnace). As a renter leading the effort for our landlord, Jorge worked with us, was timely and responsive, and had the job completed in less than 2 days. Which was great for the amount of work we saw go into it. Now all 3 bedrooms and living room are well heated, we have a new wall thermostat, and it doesn't take nearly as long to heat the house. The customer service was top notch. We had a malfunction with one of the furnace parts, which led to a smoldering electrical fire in the middle of the night (luckily it didn't get out of hand). We alerted Jorge and he was there first thing that morning to address it. While it was no fault to the installation, Jorge wanted to make things right, so he upgraded one of our vent outlets to a larger one, which helps heat our main room much quicker. read more

Jorge is truly the best in his field. I've had some issues where my AC did not turn on and he showed up the same day. He took a look at it and grabbed some things out of his truck and fixed it. I was doing so much research trying to figure out what the issue was and could not figure it out. Jorge did it so seamlessly. My AC has not malfunctioned since. This was a couple years ago. Now, we have him come look at our whole HVAC system every year. He cleans it and does everything he needs to for a tune up and we never have any problems throughout the year. I recommend Jorge to anyone that I know that has heating or AC issues. He's a one man team and a local small business! read more

Affordable Heating installed an UV active air cleaner device into my residential system today. The work was quick, efficient, and very professional, and the price was very fair. Couldn't be happier. Jorge, the General Manager, took time to point out to me that this device is "on" any time the system's fan is running and thereby cleaning the air. I can run the fan manually,independent of heating or cooling, to cleanse the air and equalize temperatures in the house. Hadn't occurred to me. Thanks, Jorge! And thanks, Carlos (junior tech and "low-crawler" for the under-house installation). read more

I update my review of Affordable Heating to a great review. Jeorge communicated clearly on my observations I made earlier. His work is excellent and value for dollars spent is great. I am happy with the service and work done. I would use him for all future work. Thanks for reaching out. Sincerely. read more

We had a great experience with Jorge and his team. They replaced my old floor furnace with a new wall furnace, and we couldn't be happier with the quality of work. They were very professional, responsive, and timely with their service. Jorge was also very reasonable and transparent with pricing. He would be my first recommendation to anyone looking for HVAC services. read more

We were introduced to Jorge by our realtor when we bought our home. He replaced our furnace and AC as well as a freon line. He was honest and the work was done well. When we have needed to make minor adjustments to the system he has been fast to respond and always friendly. I recommend him to all of my friends. read more

Makes appointments and doesn't show up. Excuses for staff not being able to do the job when they do come and then they have to reschedule your repair. I recommend that you find a more professional company to help you. read more

Justin completely removed and placed a brand New York central heating system to include new registers and duct in rooms that had never had heat. He found that there had never been a outside vent for ventilation in the room with a furnace and put that in. All of this less than other bids I had received and done with great care in a family with small kids. I can't say enough great things about this company. read more

Great company, replaced a furnace installed in 1957 with a high efficiency Trane in one day. George and his crew did an excellent job, they also installed 2 LED 2' x 4' ceiling lights and replaced a ceiling fan at low cost. read more

Jorge and Carlos arrived on time and had everything they needed to install a new AC unit in a shed that we converted into a work space for COVID. Jorge had previously assessed the space and I was ready for a much more expensive set up, but went with his advice - he saved me money and was done in less than a day. It looks great and has no trouble cooling the shed down. We were also able to connected to Google home so we can pre-cool when heading out there to work. Can't say enough about both Carlos' and Jorge's professionalism and know-how. read more

From the start to the finished product, Jorge was fantastic. He spent time explaining the different options and showed pride in his work. I did not feel like he rushed any aspect of the process. I really appreciated this. Our new ducting and heating system is working very well. Thank you Jorge for a job well done! Brian read more

I contracted Affordable Heating and Air Conditioning for 3 separate AC/HEAT and plumbing fixture and main line replacement and repair projects in the past 3 years. All of this work is excellent, and there were no surprises or problems. All of these jobs were time critical because of hot weather and emergency repairs. I appreciate that George was very accommodating and worked with my tight schedule, difficult access, and stressed out tenants. He was upfront with pricing, straightforward, and was very reasonable. After working with 5 different companies over the past 10 years, including some of the big names I have found that George is consistently more competent, efficient, easier to work with, and he is also better at diagnosing the issues in the first place - which reduces the pain. I need to add that the recent work he did for me was during a pandemic/lockdown. This added complexity did not in any way effect the quality of work, his work ethics, the value he provided, or the cost. He was clearly aware of risks and took care to work safely. I generally do not write reviews but in the context of the current situation I would even add a 6th star to all businesses that add value to society under these circumstances. These businesses are profoundly important to getting through this and deserve that recognition and some additional visibility. read more

Jorge was incredibly warm, experienced, patient and transparent through the whole process. I appreciated his eagerness to help and explain the situation. read more

I've used Affordable Heating on several occasions and each time they've arrived promptly and delivered excellent service. Jorge is so professional and knowledgeable and thoroughly explained the issues and how to address them. They are quick and efficient and I highly recommend them. read more

It was starting to get colder in the evening and early morning hours and our heater was not responding to our thermostat setting. I contacted George at Affordable and was able to get an appointment the very next day. Within a few minutes, George diagnosed the problem and had our heater up and running again. While he was there, I also asked George to switch our analog thermostat to a digital one. Again, George made the conversion in no time and now our furnace is working better than ever. Just in time for the cold weather. read more

Jorge quickly responded to my HVAC issues. He assessed the issues and gave me a reasonable estimate to replace parts and provide quick service. I am very happy to have found him and have even agreed to the annual service contract. I recommend his business to anyone in the area. read more

Jorge is responsive, honest, transparent, and an expert! if you want the Job done right and on time, then give him a call.

We contacted Affordable Heating and Air Conditioning for some duct repair on our home. We knew we had damage and heat leakage due to opossums living under our house a while back which torn into the ducting. Jorge replied back very quickly and came out the next day to inspect our 26-year-old ducting. Jorge took many pictures of the ducting. His detailed explanation of the damage was very thorough and professional. He provided us with different options that were available to us in addition to how our ducting runs should be re-routed for better efficiency. Since our ducting was old and inefficient, we opted to have it all replaced with aluminum flex ducting instead of the foil type that was originally installed. Jorge and his crew arrived right on time for our scheduled appointment. They removed all our old ducting. Then replaced and re-routed the new ducting installing dampers where needed to better regulate the heat distribution. After installation, he sealed all the vents and tested the air flow to direct it more evenly. The process took only 2 short days to complete. We are very pleased with the level of professionalism and workmanship Affordable Heating and Air Conditioning provided us. Every step of the process was explained to us and he answered all our questions. We will definitely call Jorge the next time we need work done. We appreciate supporting local businesses and Jorge was a great find! read more

Our 35 years old heater was not willing to work any more when the winter season came before thanksgiving. I found Jorge from local business listing and called him. He came and trying to fix the heater starter first.. But later he found though the new starter worked ok but whole heater was running unstably, hence to be dangerous. He suggested to replace the heater and he offered fair price. When he began to order the new heater, he found the model we have agreed with is out of stock from his supplier. He brought another model which was quite more expensive than the one we have agreed with. He did not ask me for paying more!!! And his work is clean and perfect! read more

Jorge is a professional who provides a quote that breakdown material and labor and his price is fair. He comes on time and completes the job per the time promised. He explained different options and showed expert knowledge of the (forced air) floor heater problem which is rare. He fixed the issue and suggested a safety option of the C.O. alarm which was installed and greatly appreciated. It is so nice to enjoy warmth during this cold winter! Do yourself a favor and call him at 510-825-5079 now! read more

Jorge was quick to respond to my initial call (even though it was technically after business hours). He had the problem with the heating system diagnosed and new controller board ordered in short order. Jorge is knowledgeable, courteous and professional. I'll definitely call him again if I have any other HVAC issues. read more

Experienced and fast in detecting the AC issues, Jorge provided a quick resolution. Asides from the parts order delay mishap which was not his fault, it was a quality service with reasonable pricing. (i.e. they also provide annual membership with additional discounts and a faster response time around the year) read more

Jorge and Carlos provided a high quality of service on our existing (old, loud, and confusing) HVAC system in our home. Jorge does an excellent job of explaining what needs to be done and why, checking in with us as the work progresses, and providing options for us to make decisions at different points about what steps to take next. He is thorough and knowledgable, always on time and prepared, and gave good suggestions for how to improve our entire HVAC system. Highly recommend! read more

Surprised and dismayed. Jorge came to our home and identified what was wrong with our 35 year old furnace. He is pleasant and has a good personality. Convinced us that it is time for a new furnace and we agreed. He told us he would send a proposal later that day. I texted him asking where the proposal was two days later and he said he would check and verify our email ( I wrote it down for him as well as our contact information). It has been weeks and this guy will not step foot in my home again. Buyer beware. He never even mentioned that we needed a permit. Wow. read more

Fantastic! I have an old furnace with an ancient broken motor, Jorge was able track down the part, replace the broken one and fix it up real quick! Had him service my AC while he was here and found a vent I wanted replaced and he took care of that to! Excellent, prompt, reliable service. Thanks Jorge! read more

We called Affordable Heating and Air Conditioning in to fix our furnace because it was cycling, but not lighting. It seemed to be a minor problem since I did some research online. Jorge came in at 1pm and kept replacing parts and tinkering away until 3pm and still did not get it fixed. He later said he needed to come back at 7pm because he needed a different part. When he came back at 7pm, he put the new part in, but still could not get the furnace going. He then proceeded to try to re-wire the furnace by reading off of a booklet. We just told him to stop because he was obviously just wasting our time. We later called in a different repair-man and he got the problem fixed in 10 minutes, and charges us half of what Jorge wanted. Please save yourself a lot of grief and do not call Affordable Heating and Air Conditioning! read more

We contacted Jorge about our old floor furnace last December. It couldn't be saved so he installed a new wall furnace. This required venting through our roof, a building permit and inspection. All was done without issue. We had a problem with the new furnace afterwards, Jorge was responsive and worked with the manufacturer to take care of it. He also serviced our other 2 furnaces. We worked with Jorge over ~4 months on non-standard/old furnaces where he had to find parts and modify a part from another manufacturer. They probably came to our home 8 or more times. They showed up when they said they would and took care of things. Jorge and his assistant were always polite, helpful and friendly. I'd definitely recommend them to anyone. Thank you Jorge! read more

I called and spoke to Jorge. He was very professional and listened to my gas leak issue. He checked out my very old floor furnace. He clearly explained what was needed and the cost. The work was completed quickly and code compliant! read more

I am so grateful to Jorge for his skill in repairing the floor heater in my brother-in-laws house. The heater had been non-op for more than three weeks and it took a bit to actually find him, but Jorge DOES work on floor furnaces (I found most companies only work on central heating/ac). Once I found him, he got the job done quickly. I appreciate the thoroughness of his work and I do apologize to him - the heater was totally a mess! We were lucky there was no fire - I think he had to clean about 10 lbs of dust/cat hair/heater dirt out of the enclosure to make it safe. Once I finally had his contact info he was 1) quick to respond, 2) great at diagnosing the issue with the heater 3) ordered the parts which came over the weekend and 4) came right back today to make the heater work again. I have the phone number for Affordable Heating & A/C in my phone - I won't lose it! In October I will be calling for a "safety check/tune up". read more

Jorge was very professional and did an excellent job fixing our wiring and control board issue. He was on time for his appointments, gave me an estimate, ordered parts and came back to fix the issue exactly when he said he would. He was courteous, efficient, knowledgeable and pleasant to deal with. I would recommend him to everyone I know! Thank you for a job well done! read more

Very unprofessional! I paid for service and I didn't receive what I paid for. I was lied to and questioned, and treated poorly. I do not appreciate this type of service. I would not recommend them to anyone that likes professional, reliable and quality service. read more

We have been using Affordable Heating and AC for at least 10 years. Jorge is always on time, thoroughly explains the solution to the problem, gives a fair quote, and works quickly. He is pleasant to work with and is very professional. He has fixed and serviced our air conditioner, replaced and relocated our water heater, and even replaced a bathroom exhaust fan. I highly recommend him! read more

Highly recommend Jorge. We originally got connected to him through a neighbor when our heating went out over the weekend. He was prompt in getting back to me, prioritized coming to our house in downtown Oakland as soon as he could, identified the problem quickly, walked me through his proposed solution with a clear estimate. He really saved the day for us! Not only did he fix the heater, but he gave some clear recommendations for maintenance as well. He was courteous, professional and honest. We appreciated his work so much that we had him come back to help with a plumbing issue. Highly recommend him. read more

Hi, if you are smart, stay away from affordable heating and air conditioning. George is horrible. He says one thing and gives you another. This has gone on for years whether it is heat or ac. Drama. This holiday, our office has not had heat for a week. He has been at the office twice, said he ordered the part overnight, it still hasn't come three business days later. He installed this supposedly new furnace last year or the year before. Now, first cold season, we turn on the furnace, surprise no heat. Do yourself a favor and call someone else. You will thank me later and so will your clients or family. read more

We called George, the owner of this business, and he promptly came to our house in Castro Valley, to fix a heating problem. George pointed out some flexible metal tubing that was not installed according to code by a prior worker. If you want a local, honest and dependable certified heating and air conditioning serviceman, call this guy! read more

Jorge returned our call in a timely fashion. Him and his team were very responsible and flexible in working with us to get our heater fixed. He is very honest and dependable. recommend him highly. read more

George was responsible, gave me a heads up call before he was heading over. Subject matter expert on Heating and Cooling HVAC. My impression of him was good, very courteous and honest. Gave me a quote for the work that just exactly what's needed, no add-on, no trick. Highly recommended. read more

I have used this company a couple of times but the most recent, today, was exceptional. As always, they answer and get a serviceman out promptly with all tools in the truck. Today they had to return due to crazy code declared by City of Pleasanton. Interestingly, Pleasanton has been here before and never brought this up. Anything for a buck, I guess. Anyhow, Affordable rep went way beyond service. So much so, I offered money to them and they refused. Said it was part of the job. Each time I have met the plumbers they have been awesome. Well experienced professionals that give information as they progress, if you want it. Great people! read more

I've been working with George for years. I'm a property mgr and have used the services of many hvac companies. I've been gouged by so many companies who would inspect a heater and just tell me "You need to replace it." I have recommended him to a few people because he has always been honest on what needs to be done, repairs, parts, warranties. Good guy, serviceable, have been using his services for roughly 4 years and going. read more

Extremely pleased with this company. They have the entire package: customer service, work performance, honesty and price. Absolutely a five star company! read more
