I had a wonderful experience with Airmaxx. I wasn't sure what to expect at first, but after reading so many positive reviews, I decided to give them a try--and I'm so glad I did. The technician was friendly, professional, and took the time to explain everything clearly. He listened to my concerns without making me feel pressured and even wore shoe covers to keep my floors clean, which I really appreciated. My AC system is about 20 years old and had started blowing warm air. I honestly thought I was going to need a whole new system, but I explained that replacing it just wasn't in my budget right now. The technician understood, carefully diagnosed the problem, and found that it was simply a faulty capacitor. After replacing the part, my AC was up and running perfectly again! I'm incredibly grateful that he was able to fix the issue instead of pushing me toward an expensive replacement. Airmaxx earned my trust, and when the time does come to replace my AC system, they'll be the first company I call. I highly recommend them! read more

Lets just say they saved me. My HVAC stopped working due to a failed capacitor. Everyone else in the HVAC industry pretty much is a rip off and straight up greed. Those guys came in the same day when everyone else wanted to take their sweet time and come "next week" during a 80 degrees summer day and charge me 3 times what airmaxx wanted to charge me. Thanks and will use again. End of story. read more

It says a lot about a company when they're willing to be open during a busy holiday weekend like Memorial Day--and even more when the owner personally shows up to handle the repair. That's exactly what happened, and we're so grateful that Alex came out to help. He responded quickly to my online inquiry and was able to schedule a visit just a few hours later. Our guests at our rental property had reported that the AC was no longer cooling, so we needed assistance fast. Alex arrived with a smile and got right to work. He was friendly, professional, and genuinely pleasant to work with. It's rare to receive this level of customer service from a technician, especially on a holiday when most people are spending time with their families. He quickly diagnosed the issue and replaced the capacitor. He also explained that the new capacitor was made in the USA, unlike the old one that had failed, and that it comes with a 5-year warranty. I really appreciated his attention to quality and transparency. Thank you, Alex, for your outstanding service, quick response, and willingness to help on such short notice. We highly recommend your company and will definitely call again if we ever need HVAC service in the future! read more

AWESOME Experience and I would give the company 10 stars. The technician who sold us the system was very knowledgeable and low key. He told us what they did and what the process would be and gave us a bid that was easy to read so we knew what we were getting. The process of replacing heating and A/C is trying because it is expensive and you don't do it everyday so with me the internet became my best friend. The install was flawless. They had four men come in at 8 AM and were done before 3 PM. They worked very well together and got the job done quickly with no mess. We now have a wonderful new and efficient heater and A/C. I would not hesitate to contact these folk. There reviews say it all and they don't beg you for them you just want to do it because you feel so good about your experience. read more

I requested a A/C Maintenance check from AirMaxx because I used them in the past and they were super friendly and on time. This time I had the opportunity to meet Gilbert Cortez as the AirMaxx tech rep for my A/C maintenance check. He was not only super friendly and on time but sooo informative. I learned more from him about my 20 year old A/C and how to extend its life than any other A/C service company I have ever used in the past 20 years! I highly recommend AirMaxx and request Gilbert if you can, you won't be disappointed! read more

We have used this company for years and they never fail to deliver as promised. This time Gilbert serviced an AC that was going on the fritz right as escrow was closing !!!! We were a last minute call and they got us in Gilbert's service was friendly, fast, and he explained everything !! All fixed and now we can complete the sale!! I recommend this company to all my friends and family and they have all been thrilled !!! read more

TL;DR: Call Airmaxx and ask for Gilbert. You will thank me. My entire experience took 4 hours - from phone call to the work being completed. Gilbert was a god send, especially in this weather. He invited me to watch him work and explained what he was doing. When it came to repairs he showed me all his testing results. I appreciate that he didn't just tell me, but showed me the numbers and explained what meant. (in a way non-techie me could understand) After the repairs were done, he did the testing again and I could see/feel/hear the improvement. He also showed me how to clean the unit so that it runs more efficiently, something I had never learned about. Also got advice on how to make my filter more efficient. Everyone should love their job and nerd out about it as much as Gilbert. read more

Best Value, Fast Service, and Professional! I recently hired Airmaxx to install a new HVAC system at a property in Carmel Valley, and they exceeded every expectation. As a Realtor, I'm used to vetting contractors, so I gathered five different quotes for this project--including bids from Tytum, Progressive Heating, and Fuse AC. Airmaxx not only provided the best price quote, but their proposal was the most complete. They were the only ones who made the permitting process completely seamless, which was critical for my tight timeline. And great equipment recommendation. The Carrier 37MURA High-Efficiency Heat Pump--it's a "slim line" model, so it has a much smaller footprint than those old bulky cubes, which was perfect for my San Diego side yard. Plus, it uses variable-speed inverter technology, making it really quiet and efficient. The communication with their office was prompt and professional from the initial Yelp inquiry to the final invoice. They scheduled the work quickly, and the installation of the new Lennox furnace was fast and clean. It's rare to find a company that hits the trifecta of best price, highest quality, and fastest turnaround. I highly recommend the Airmaxx team for anyone in San Diego looking for reliable HVAC work! read more

I am impressed by technician Dima's quick and friendly service! The leak from my furnace was fixed in less than an hour. A very pleasant experience! I would recommend this company and Dima to anyone. 5 Stars***** read more

Service was an amazing troubleshooting process that lead to a compressor shorted to ground. Obviously, meant the replacement of the entire A/C Unit. $5100. Right? read more

Great. Came quickly and assessed what was needed quickly. Fair price. We were very happy we called them.

Great fast service...as always. I've worked with these guys for years and have always been satisfied. Honest. Great work.

Second time I've used AirMaxx and both times they were very thorough in diagnosing the AC issue. If you're in north county, request Jesus! He was on time, professional and most importantly honest. This company doesn't try to upsell you or make up issues to charge more. They're honest and fair. read more

A/C wouldn't start - Alex responded at 8PM on a Saturday and had a technician there the next morning. Jesus diagnosed the problem and fixed it in a half hour. read more

After researching certified Carrier heat pump installers, I found Airmaxx listed among a small group of reputable companies serving the East County area. From the beginning, Airmaxx stood out for its professionalism, attention to detail, and competitive pricing. Randy visited my home and spent approximately two hours conducting a thorough on-site inspection, including air duct measurements and airflow calculations. He clearly explained the installation process, total cost, and the 10-year warranty covering parts and labor. Compared with the other companies I contacted, Airmaxx provided the most competitive quote without compromising service or quality. On installation day, Vladimir and Alex arrived 15 minutes early for their 8:00 AM appointment and began work right away. They removed my 16-year-old Amana system, installed the new Carrier system, completed an operational check, and finished the job by 3:30 PM. The installation was completed with excellent workmanship, and they took great care to clean the work area thoroughly before leaving. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with Airmaxx's service from start to finish. Their team was knowledgeable, punctual, efficient, and professional throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend Airmaxx to anyone looking for a reliable and well-priced HVAC installation company. read more

My mother-in-law had a broken air conditioner this summer and she very clearly didn't mind the 100 degree heat inside her townhouse. I, on the other hand, get very angry in the heat, so my kids and I avoided being home as much as possible in the afternoons. She eventually reached out to Airmaxx to have her unit inspected. She had thought that she needed to replace her old unit completely, so thank goodness she called Airmaxx first. Gene came by to take a look and my husband told me he was exceptional. He diagnosed the issue with our AC unit and explained to them that with our particular unit it's more affordable to keep replacing the broken parts whenever they break rather than replacing the entire unit. Most importantly, I heard that Gene handled my difficult and confrontational mother-in-law with ease and grace. The price was more than fair and we are 100% satisfied customers. Thank you for saving my sanity and bringing comfort to our family this summer. We will recommend Airmaxx to everyone and will have them come again if the air conditioner has issues again! read more

I called AirMaxx to come service our air-conditioner, because they had some of the highest ratings I've seen for this type of company. And in making my appointment, I realised that they were actually the company that installed my air-conditioner about four years ago. We had a Bosch unit installed and it has served us very well. We hadn't used it much because of the ridiculously high SDG$E rates. But we finally got Solar installed along with a couple of Tesla power wall batteries, so this is the first year we've actually used it to keep the house in the low 70s, rather than the low 80s. Josh was the technician they sent out to service our air-conditioner, and he was full of useful information and tips on how to keep the unit running smoothly. Super nice and informative. He even made an improvement to our drainage trap at no additional charge. As with any service call, I expected it to cost at least somewhere between 100, and $200. Because there was no significant work that needed to be done, the bill for the service call came in at a very modest number far below $100. So I've now had two excellent interactions with this company, : the installation of the HVAC back in 2022, and now the servicing of that unit four years later, by an outstanding technician. read more

Great experience, was out to our home within 4 hours of calling to schedule. No upselling, just a straightforward inspection and simple recommendations. I highly endorse Airmaxx, as this industry is full of hard selling manipulating individuals, so refreshing to do business with Airmaxx. read more

Vladimir was a little late, but took care of everything. Very detail oriented and explained everything to me so I could understand. Perk: took a look and assisted with troubleshooting my QuietCool system. Recommend Vladimir!!! read more

I am so pleased by the honesty and efficiency of this business.. Gene the Airmax tech made it so easy to work with even though I was 30 minutes late. Here's my story: Being a first time homeowner is confusing and scary. TL services was sent by AHS home warranty. They took $75 service charge regardless and misdiagnosed the AC problem expecting a $324 charge to fix the problem which was in their words "just needs Freon." I doubted his diagnosis and went to check the yelp reviews on TL services . Seems like I'm not the other one betrayed by such a dishonest company. So I decided to look for another business and Airmax popped on my search. The representative on the phone was extremely pleasant and made an appt as quick as the next business day. So I had a second consultation with Gene from Airmax who stated that all it needed was a dual capacitor and that the Freon was at a perfect level. Fixed in minutes at half the price. I literally just had my ac fixed and couldn't wait to tell you fellow yelpers how pleased I am. read more

Alex is amazing. Diagnosed problem fast and was done within an hour. Appreciate the effort! read more

They were kind and fast . At this moment we couldn't work together but I wish we could work together next project read more

Wonderful tech Josh, patient, honest. Took his time to show us what to do, he fixed a little problem. I would highly recommend this company. read more

We had a great experience with a Airmaxx today. Josh showed up as scheduled, and promptly diagnosed and fixed the problem with our AC unit. He gave us lots of helpful tips about maximizing the life of the equipment and didn't try to upsell us on anything. Airmaxx will be our first call in the futrue if we need anything related to AC or heating. read more

AirMaxx was outstanding from start to finish. The technician Bradley who came out to give us a quote was by far the most knowledgeable and professional of the 5 companies we met with. He took the time to explain everything clearly and made me feel confident in moving forward. The installation team Alex & Roman were just as impressive. very friendly, professional, and efficient. They completed the entire job the same day, and the quality of the work shows. Everyone we dealt with at AirMaxx demonstrated a high level of expertise and professionalism. I highly recommend AirMaxx if you're looking for a company that combines great customer service with excellent workmanship. Thank you again for such an amazing experience. read more

Airmaxx - One of the install technicians Alex and myself. Thank you again! - Heating & Air Conditioning/HVAC Near Me - El Cajon, California

Airmaxx services all of San Diego. Our tenant had informed us that the AC stopped working. The control pad was blinking "cool on" which it hadn't done before. Airmaxx was one for 4 services I had booked to get an estimate (in the event the unit needed to be replaced). They were the first one who arrived to inspect the AC unit. The capacitor had a low charge and wasn't functioning properly. I got a call on the repair work explaining what was being replaced and checked on. I questioned the warranty and was told that there was a 5 yr warranty on parts and 1 yr on labor. (Make sure you ask and note the warranty when having work done.) The tech did a check on airflow, and refrigerant pressure, electrical components. We were told to hose the unit once every several years. The tech arrived 11am on the dot. The job was done in less than 1/2 hr. The price for the work was reasonable so I cancelled the other ones we had scheduled. I'm bookmarking Airmaxx for future work and recommending them to others. read more

I recently had an issue between my thermostat and older furnace where the thermostat kept restarting when trying to heat up our Townhome. We have a Carrier furnace and I knew Airmaxx were a Carrier dealer from quoting an AC install with them. I reached out to Airmaxx and they had someone over at my home in an hour. Alex inspected my thermostat and furnace. He confirmed that the thermostat and furnace were both in good shape, but the furnace did not have enough airflow. He suggested we install an additional vent and filter to help with the airflow. He quoted me a reasonable price then and there and I decided to proceed. Two Airmax Engineers came the next morning at 8AM. I was originally told it would take them 3-5 hours to install the vent, and they had it done in an hour. The vent fixed the heating issue, but the thermostat was still restarting. Alex came back and helped me reset it. Since then it has been working great! Overall, I am very impressed with Airmaxx service and install efficiency. I will 100% use them again. read more

Mike Ball is exactly who you want in a repair service. No nonsense, highly efficient. Identified the issue, explained the repair, and didn't sell me anything extra. Came back the next day and fixed the issue. Perfection! read more

I could not be happier with the AC replacement work completed by Jeff and the 2 installers (Vladim and Roma) at AirMaxx. Every time I have reached out to AirMaxx for our AC issue, Jeff goes above and beyond to not only provide us the details on what the problem is and what he did to remediate it. Never once did I feel Airmaxx was trying to nickel and dime me. They are an honest business, which is rare to come by nowadays, but also have the best customer service I have come across. Jeff was very patient with us as we awaited for our HOA approval to get our ancient AC unit replaced. In those months of waiting, Jeff was responsive and worked with us to the very day of installation. They arrived on time, which pleasantly surprised me and my tenants, and did an excellent job to complete and test the work done. I can tell you from experience that I've worked with other HVAC services, but AirMaxx takes the crown on quality of work and customer service! I will definitely highly recommend this team! read more

Matt, the estimator, did an excellent job of evaluating my needs and explaining what system would be more appropriate for my situation. Airmaxx replaced a 20+ year old system that was overheating. They added a plasma filter to the ductwork which will help with my airborne allergies immensely. Can't say enough about their service. Thanks a million, Airmaxx!! read more

We've done business with Airmaxx for two other ac related projects at another property and we immediately called them for a free inspection regarding our ac and furnace supposed "issues" that were diagnosed by another company that seemed a bit far fetched. We felt lied to and almost pressured into taking on $9k repairs or $20k+ system replacement . So we immediately phoned Airmaxx. Our Airmaxx tech Vladimir was very punctual and thoroughly tested/inspected our furnace. He was very honest and diagnosed what could be fixed in the future but that our system was performing fine and no gas leaks were present at our furnace. He was very knowledgeable and we will definitely be doing business with Airmaxx again because of their honesty and trustworthiness. We really appreciated Vladimir providing his findings and being forthright. 5 stars for customer service, reasonableness of pricing, and honesty. read more

Randy was my initial contact to review various heating and cooling system options. He had a great way of communicating while highlighting pros and cons of each. He answered all my questions and was very responsive and personable. I highly recommend Randy and the company as a whole. Thank you! read more

I could not be happier and satisfied with the air conditioning system repair provided by Gilbert at AirMaxx!!! Courteous, on time, extremely knowledgeable, and fast, Gilbert was the kind of of technician AirMaxx can be very proud of. My system problem was quickly identified by Gilbert and just as quickly repaired. He also advised me on inexpensive ways to keep my twenty seven year old Carrier system working efficiently. Needless to say I highly recommend AirMaxx for air conditioning systems!! read more

I highly recommend Airmaxx in San Diego County. I sought out and received 5 proposals / quotes from HVAC providers to replace my home's two, 4-ton systems that were 25 years old. Airmaxx provided a very competitive proposal backed-up by the most attentive and responsive customer service led by Randy Isaak. Randy was very patient with me as I considered alternative proposals and we worked together to select the best equipment for my home's coastal setting. I was super impressed on Installation day. Crew of 5-6 professionals arrived on time and completed a challenging installation that included running new electrical conduit from my main panel to the HVAC with minimal aesthetic impact. I have two new smart Ecobee thermostats replacing my antiquated analog controls. Looking forward to the temperature-controlled and high-quality air throughout our home. read more

Great service. Had a problem with my furnace and they were able to fix it and also identified some issues with my AC. They were great about showing me the issues and giving me a good quote to get them fixed very honest and trustworthy. They also walked me through maintenance needed on my AC that I could do. read more

Excellent and fast service. Got to root of the problem and worked quickly to fix the issue.

Giving them a 5 star rating because of Gilbert, our tech, and the integrity of the company. We didn't have work done but they will get our future business and here's why. We had a company come out due to a plumbing issue. While they were there, they conducted another of their services - HVAC inspection. That company tried to convince us that we had dangerously high levels of carbon monoxide coming out of our heating system. They tried to sell us into a $15-$18,000 replacement for two furnaces. We didn't trust the evaluation and decided to get 2 to 3 more quotes. Gilbert came out and calmed our nerves. We had zero emissions of carbon monoxide. He even showed us how the system could be cheated to make it appear as though we did have emissions. But he didn't stop there. He suggested we call SDG&E to have them test as well and not just take his word for it. He also let us know that our furnaces look like they were in great shape. We called SDG&E. They came out and confirmed Gilbert's assessment. Needless to say, he saved us a ton of money and worry. He earned our trust. And that is what brings you repeat business and word-of-mouth referrals. Thank you, Gilbert and Airmaxx!! read more

Prompt response and quick scheduling. Provided diagnostic without fee and fixed issue within an hour. Great service for a great value!

We made sure to get multiple bids. The tech, Ilya was great! He came out quickly, was thorough, friendly and professional. He gave direction and provided three different price points. Airmaxx had the best prices out of the 3 companies we saw, though one of them offered to match or undercut the price, we chose Airmaxx because we had confidence in them based on our initial appointment set up and the tech visit. They told us it would be between 6-8 hours for installation. They showed up on time, placed drop cloths down, and got to work. The full installation took less than 4 hours! They cleaned up, left us the manuals, gave a quick tutorial on the thermostat and were on their way. The installers worked well as a team and Ilya was always responsive and professional along the way. We are DELIGHTED with the service provided by Airmaxx. Don't bother with other companies, get your new HVAC this week! We were also able to get 0% financing for 60 months, boy do I wish we'd done this sooner! read more
