Absolutely FANTASTIC experience bar none! Being a retired US Navy CAPT with 24 years of military service, I pride myself on "planning ahead" and taking a more "proactive" response to situations vice the typical last minute "reactive" response that often occurs. However, sometimes life just throws you an unexpected "curveball" that you have no choice but to be reactive and in my case today, Airmaxx came through for us with "FLYING COLORS" ten fold!!! And just as a simple illustration of Mr. Alex G., the owner of Airmaxx, his dedicated commitment to consistently providing "SUPERB CUSTOMER SERVICE", he himself stepped in despite a "fully packed" work schedule for his employees today just to help accommodate me.....an individual he only met today via my Yelp request for a quote. We are closing on the sale of our house and our 6 year old A/C unit which was hardly ever used was not providing "cold air". I needed to get it serviced asap today and was working under an extremely compressed timeline..... meaning I found out about having to address this issue "just today" and I had to find an A/C company that would be able to accommodate me onto their schedule "only today" on such short notice. Most A/C companies were understandably already fully booked today and could not accommodate me, even those named "Same Day Heating & Air Conditioning".....a bit of a misnomer..... However, Mr. Alex, the owner, not only fit me into their schedule, he himself came out to meet me along with one of his more junior employees as he used the visit as a "teaching moment". A TRULY caring owner who takes time to mentor his employees and set the bar high to ensure complete customer satisfaction for his patrons!!! Mr. Alex, the savvy, astute and extremely humble individual that he is was able to quickly assess the issue and fixed our A/C all under an hour. As icing on the cake, his price point for services rendered was EXTREMELY FAIR and COMPETITIVE!!! I would without hesitation, provide my HIGHEST LEVEL of recommendation of Airmaxx for any of your A/C or Heating needs!!! They are honest, transparent, and forthright.....something extremely hard to find in the industry today!! And their technical skills in assessing the situation is nothing short of being outstanding!!! Thanks again to Mr. Alex and his team for being so RESPONSIVE and helping us out of one of those "curveballs" we all get in life!! Airmaxx ROCKS....plain and simple!! R/Gene P. read more

Contacted them on a Sunday afternoon, and Alex was at my house Monday morning. He fixed the issue for a minimal charge, and let us know that it was a common problem. When it is time for us to replace our AC ( which will be soon since it is 30 years old) we will definitely call Airmaxx/Alex to come out and give us a quote! read more

Just had air-conditioning put into the house in Bonita. The initial evaluation and estimate was done prompt and professionally by Alex. Subsequently three gentleman arrived exactly on time as they said they would. They were extremely professional & extremely clean leaving no clutter whatsoever. The system was in within six hours (new heater as well) & it works perfectly. All I can say is that air max is the cats meow of air conditioning. Unfortunately I forgot the names of the crew but I know that one was Russian and two from the Ukraine and they were extremely pleasant and very competent I rarely, if ever leave a review but in this case I feel compelled to do so because of the excellent service.

My condenser went out last night. The fan just quit working. I found these folks online and today I had to work but decided to give them a call. It just so happened that one of their technicians, Jeff Berg, had just finished a job and was able to meet me at my house if I could get away. I said lets do it. Jeff was at my house when I got on the freeway. I told him he could go through the fence to get access to the condenser. By the time I got off the freeway he called me back and said he knew what the problem was and had the part with him. I told him to go ahead and replace it. When I got to the house, he'd already installed the part and said turn it on. It worked perfect. I highly recommenced this company and Jeff in particular if you can get him. Great work, great price. Very satisfied all around. Rick B. read more

I sent a request yesterday afternoon regarding several issues with our HVAC system and today morning it was all fixed! Alex was super nice and professional. He diagnosed the issues and fixed them pretty quickly. I recommend Air Maxx and would definitely use their service again. Thanks! read more

Had an issue with my AC thermostat yesterday, called, and scheduled an appointment for today. It was fixed within 30 minutes by Gilbert, who was professional and easy to work with. Highly recommend this company for people having issues with the heating/ac. read more

Vitali, Roman and Valdimir were incredible. They showed up on time, 8:00 AM sharp. Then worked nonstop until they were finished. They were clean, respectful and very good at their job. I highly recommend them. read more

Airmaxx - Heating & Air Conditioning/HVAC Near Me - El Cajon, California

I received 6 bids from and was most comfortable with Airmaxx's estimate/bid for a new HVAC Carrier system, including replacing and relocation of ducts. When the crew arrived, (I was thinking 2 guys) 6 men showed up, 2 started on the air conditioner, one on the heater in the closet and a few up in the attic to remove the old duct work. I was going over the new duct locations with another professional. Others were outside off loading the new system. Within a few hours they were installing the new air conditioner and building the new platform for the heating unit that was being relocated from the closet to the attic. Every professional had their job and most of what I heard and saw was feet moving quickly about. By the end of the day, BAM! my system was up and running. The house was left clean! Airmaxx knows what they are doing when it comes to installing HVAC. They had to turn off my gas and some electric, I really appreciate they didn't turn off all my electric and more important to me, they turned everything back on, especially my water heater. When Airmaxx comes to your house, be confident you will receive more than what you know about quality and quality assurance. Hey Airmaxx, thank you for a great job in our home. read more

I wish I could give this company 100 stars. If not for Alex, I would have been ripped off a five-figure amount by ASI. Alex(a busy gentleman) was here on short notice and quickly and more importantly correctly diagnosed the issue (thermostat setting) and advised of the resolution. Unlike technicians from other companies whose real intention is to use repair/maintenance calls to sell needless new systems, Alex was honest and was on the customer side. read more

I am a realtor and have to call contractors who can accommodate my clients needs fairly quickly, since we're dealing with short timeframes under contract. I called Airmaxx and they got me an appointment 2 days later, called me with 30 min notice when the technician was on his way, and were very communicative. Alex Gold was our tech, he was very professional, efficient and friendly. Diagnosed the issue right away, was in and out in under 20 minutes. I highly recommend their services for all your HVAC needs. Thank you Alex!! read more

Airmaxx - Heating & Air Conditioning/HVAC Near Me - El Cajon, California

I called in the morning about our AC and a technician arrived at 1pm that day. He was straight forward and fixed the problem, warning me of other things to look for. And it wasn't too expensive! read more

Sam K. arrived on Monday, and patiently tried to diagnose the issue regarding my heater turning off after a short period. Unfortunately, at the time, there was no code associated with the shutoff, and of course the heater worked while he was there. Thankfully, he had a general idea of what the problem was (a possible block in the vent cap), due to what he was seeing with the heater. After he took a quick look outside, he noticed that the vent cap was bent, scheduled me to get a new one installed, and lo and behold, the heater hasn't shut off since. Pros: - Called ahead to let me know he was arriving - Wore a mask at all times - Knowledgeable and quickly identified the potential issues - Asked about booties to keep dirt off the floor Cons: - None that I can think of at this moment. Thanks for your help! read more

Airmaxx came and fixed a switch that was malfunctioning for our air conditioner, which was causing our Nest Thermostat to lose power. Then Alex came back 2 weeks later when the issue re-occurred and helped us again at no charge, with a more permanent solution. He was nice, professional, and gave extra advice on our filters and vents, etc. Highly recommended. read more

Thank you to Gilbert for fixing my 92 year old dad's A/C as quickly as possible during this heat wave! He was very personable and explained exactly what needed to be done. read more

Wonderful experience. We were able to get a time certain appointment within a few hours of calling. It turned out to be a very minor issue and we were NOT charged a penny. Jeffrey Berg was professional and personable and he even checked the filter!! read more

I hired Airmaxx to install one of my two furnaces a few years back. After realizing my gas bill increased 30% over the past year I got suspicious went into my attack and realized one of the ducts was off of the furnace. Having thought it was the furnace Airmaxx installed it turns out it was my older furnace but Airmaxx still fixed it free of charge based on their good will to their customers. I highly recommend them for their integrity along with the fantastic job they did installing my original furnace. read more

They were very prompt, professional, polite and kind. We were getting a second opinion and they were so helpful. We were dealing with a warranty company & wanted to make sure we were given the correct information. He agreed with them & gave us an honest opinion. read more

JEFF from Airmaxx came out to service our air conditioner last Friday. He was absolutely amazing and offered extremely fair pricing to fix our AC. Airmaxx is a refreshing change from the previous providers that came to our home. Airmaxx has our business for life! read more

A/C stopped working Saturday night. My wife and I were worried we wouldn't find anyone reasonable on the weekend. Contacted Alex through yelp early Sunday morning. He wrote back soon after. he came out to the house and fixed our A/C in no time at a reasonable cost. Such a great job, I couldn't expect anything better. read more

Gilbert did an excellent job diagnosing the issue on our AC unit keeping us informed the entire time on what he was doing. He was very diligent and honest which we really appreciated. Will recommend Airmaxx to our friends, family, and neighbors! read more

Airmaxx did a great job from start to finish. I could not be any happier with being referred to them for our HVAC installation. We had Alex (the manager) and another associate named Art provide us an on site quote for our installation of a new air conditioner, heater, and installation of new duct work/vent covers. Not only were they very thorough, they arrived on time, (early in fact) they wore protective shoe coverings inside our home, (which I appreciate since we just got new flooring) and provided us the best quote that included great products (Energy efficient), installation, and haul away. I received 3 previous quotes from other vendors and Airmaxx was able to provide me a very competitive/reasonable price that included great quality products and a quick turn around of installation (3 days.) The day of installation a large crew showed up and worked very hard for 5 hours to get the job done. At the completion of the job, Alex personally came to do the final walk through to ensure everything looked great and worked fine. It has been a couple of weeks since installation and the units are working great. The air conditioner is so quiet you barely even notice it's on and it cools our house down very fast. Thank you Airmaxx team for making our experience a great one! We will definitely be referring all of our family and friends to your company. Thank you Alex for being awesome! Airmaxx is definitely the best! read more

See all

I saw (Alex) installing A/C (July 2017) in my neighborhood and asked for a quote knowing I was going to eventually install central air. I live in an area where there are only four floor plans and he was doing an install at another home identical to mine. I asked him was the cost was "all installed" and was quoted $4,500 (this is for a 1350 sq foot home). I even emailed Alex the price he quoted, and he emailed back telling me it would be for a 16.5 SEER 3 ton unit. I toughed out last year's miserable heat but vowed this year to get A/C. I searched Yelp and coincidentally, the highest rated Air Conditioning company is Airmaxx, the same company the gentleman (Alex) I spoke to works for (I later found out he is the owner). Sensing the upcoming hot season, I called and got an appointment for an estimate. They were able to fit me into their schedule within a few days, but it was a midday appointment. I couldn't do the earlier appointment, so they gave me a "window" time frame of 4-6pm and I was told the person would call before coming out. Yesterday was my appointment date and unfortunately, I wasn't ready right at 4pm. The service person (Gene) did call but at 2:30 to try and schedule earlier. I was in surgery (my work) so I can't answer my phone and wasn't able to take the call. As soon as I finished up, I called Gene (4:45) but he said it was too late even though my appointment window was up until 6pm. I called the office and spoke to Irene who is very kind and understood my situation. She managed to get me an appointment for today at 8am. Ten minutes after talking to Irene, I get a call from Alex wanting to know why I missed my appointment. I told Alex I was available now (didn't know I have to explain myself???) and the appointment window was for 4-6pm and it was only 5pm. But Alex just wanted to argue on the phone about the appointment made. I let him know I had another appointment for the following day at 8am... but he still wanted to argue. Finally, I had enough and told Alex I would go with someone else. After getting off the phone, Alex began texting me! I called his office and spoke to Irene, who is the most pleasant and ideal customer service person, and we confirmed the 8am appointment just as long as it wasn't Alex and for him to stop texting me. Today is appointment day and I get Edgar. Even though I'm the "first" appointment of the day, Edgar doesn't show up until 8:45. Funny how it's okay when they are running behind, and I don't know how he can be running behind when I'm the first appointment. Edgar was very nice when he arrived. He asked me what I wanted, and I told him "central air". He toured my home to check and make sure everything was in place to do an install. Then he quoted me a price of $5,700. I told him I have an email quoting $4,500 and showed him the email. He told me that email was from a year ago (true); so I'm supposed to believe in a year their prices have gone up 27%? I wish I could get a pay increase like that in one year. Then he said my original email quote didn't include the permit and duct testing, but I told him when I spoke to Alex, the price given to me was an "all installed" price. Edgar left my house for a minute to speak to Alex and told me they would give me a $800 discount (turns out $500 was an instant rebate by the manufacturer). I told Edgar he was quoting me a price but hadn't even so much as told me the brand of the A/C unit they were going to install. Edgar never told me what SEER number the unit was they were going to install or anything about the unit. He just quoted me a price. When I mentioned this, Edgar just wanted to argue saying when he asked me what I wanted when he arrived, I told him "central A/C" which I did. But this is like going to a car dealer and saying, "I want a new car" and the dealer just handing you an invoice for $45,000 without showing you a car or even telling you what kind of car you are buying. I told Edgar I wanted more information and he said I only have two options because of my old heating unit. I asked about upgrading my heating unit and he told me I would have unlimited options, but it wasn't necessary. I said I was interested in this, but Edgar didn't want to give me information but kept arguing about how that's not what I asked for. With the sole exception of Irene, I have never experienced such antagonistic people in my life. It was if they were trying NOT to sell me anything and just wanted me to say "okay" sight unseen. Too many other GOOD choices in San Diego to deal with this hassle. To Alex, do NOT contact me ever again; no text, don't message through Yelp or anything. read more

All the 5-star reviews are well-deserved. And, then some. Our air conditioner went out suddenly during the heatwave 10 days ago. Desperate and unable to fall asleep, I sent out a Yelp request at 11:30 p.m., hoping that I'd get a response sometime the next day. When I woke, Alex had already responded to me - at 5:30 a.m. He agreed to send someone out that morning. When the serviceman arrived a few hours later, he walked up to the unit and immediately knew what the problem was - the started switch had gone out. A simple fix. He had our system back up and running within 30 minutes. I really couldn't be more impressed with the level of professionalism and prompt service from Airmaxx - start to finish. I won't hesitate to call them back out should I have any issues in the future. read more

Alex was quick to respond to my request on Yelp. He came out the next day and it took him a few minutes to figure out there was a shorted wire to the AC unit. He was very proficient at the task and I would call him again or recommend him to anyone who has issues with their HVAC. read more

Installed central air and heating in our rental. The business was one of the most responsive, thorough companies I've ever worked with. They showed up on time, did beautiful finish work, and cleaned up their mess. The system works great too. Prices were reasonable among other quotes I received. I've worked with several contractors for home projects this year, and wish every company was as seamless as Airmaxx. read more

I do not recommend Airmaxx. I requested a quote for an A/C system from Airmaxx and 5 other companies. Alex from Airmaxx was the first to respond and his quote was also the most expensive. When I informed Alex that I was going with another company he called me and texted me so many times that I felt like I was being stalked. I had to change my phone number as a result. read more

Alex helped me out when I broke my capacitor on my AC. My mistake... I didn't change the filters which I knew I should. The call response for the original quote and Alex showing up were extremely quick, professional, and did an amazing job. Never seen my AC run this well since I bought the place. Highly recommend their service. And it was nice that they easily took credit cards, which alot of repair services generally don't do. read more

Alex was prompt, courteous and efficient. I got a quick reply on yelp and was offered an appointment the next day. He was on-time and had my A/C up and running in under 30 minutes. We had another company out a few days ago and their technician spent over an hour trouble shooting the unit, ultimately saying we just needed a new A/C unit. Although it likely needs to be replaced soon (18 years old), Alex recommended it be done off season (Feb-April). I so appreciate his honesty. And that he was able to get us up and running again during this heat wave! read more

Gilbert came right away to fix our issue with our A/C. He was very informative and knowledgeable! Would definitely recommend to anyone who needs fast, reliable service. Thank you again, Gilbert! read more

I spoke with Alex (owner) on a Friday afternoon to have him give me some insight into the possible furnace problems I was having and the next morning they sent out Val (a service technician) to check out the furnace. He arrive on time, was respectful, and professional. The work needed was what Alex had suspected and completed quickly. I am typically skeptical about service folks but I have to say they exceeded my expectations and while I rarely give a five star rating they earned one with me. I will certainly use them again as occasion requires. read more

SDG&E did an initial inspection, determining our furnace was cracked and needed replacement. After a thorough research, we estimated $3K to replace the furnace. We contacted Airmaxx and Yuri came within 2 days to further evaluate the furnace and provided an expected quote ($3K). Technicians came the next day and professionally installed a new Carrier furnace (completed within 2hrs, didn't leave a mark or mess indicating they were there). They have my highest recommendation for all HVAC needs! read more

Airmaxx - AirMaxx Employee - Heating & Air Conditioning/HVAC Near Me - El Cajon, California

Imagine your AC quits working in the middle of the night during Labor Day weekend while going through an oppressive heat wave. You're thinking no way is this getting repaired quickly or at a fair price. Well it did. I sent a message to Airmaxx through yelp messenger at 7:30 Sunday morning, got a call from the owner at 8:15 and was given a 1-4 pm window for a technician's arrival. Gilbert showed up around 1:30 after calling to tell me he was on his way. No BS or upselling, just a diagnosis of what was wrong, an explanation of what was needed to get up and running, advice on self service, recommendations on an ideal time of year to schedule a follow-up full service check of the system, and we were done. Really appreciated Gilbert's efficiency and honesty. read more

Airmaxx installed our current a/c system several years ago. Today was annual check-up day, carried out by Alejandro. Thorough and patient, no pressure, no rush, he made sure the system was completely UTD and ready for summer. Alejandro is a great representative of a good company -- I highly recommend both. read more

I had AirMaxx replace my 26 year-old HVAC system today including all new ducts in the attic. Gene (sales) was great - he explained everything clearly and quoted me two options for a dual-zone, dual-speed solution. His quotes were far more reasonable than what I received elsewhere for comparable solutions. I selected AirMaxx, Gene scheduled me within 2 weeks, and all the work was done in a single day. The crew (Igor, Slava, Valera, Dima, and Artem) were all professional, courteous, and clean. They laid down carpet protectors and removed their shoes any time they walked elsewhere. The work looks excellent and I'm looking forward to using a far more efficient, effective, and quiet HVAC system. read more

Within minutes of posting my initial review, I was called by Alex, the owner of Airmaxx and the individual that responded to the service call that resulted in that review. Alex is a concerned business owner, and being upset with a low rating, was desirous of protecting his business. As a business owner going on thirty years myself, I understand that. Alex, you might want to moderate your tone of voice and intensity should you choose to make another call like that to some future customer. Alex's initial visit suggested cleaning the condensate drain line and replacing the capacitor (which his meter tested as functioning, which was a significant factor in my initial review). I couldn't see how replacing a functioning capacitor would make my system work. During this phone call he asked me what he could do. I said that he could come out and clear the condensate drain line and I would pay him the $100 or so ($345 initial quote, less his rate of $250 to replace a capacitor). My thinking was that perhaps the clogged drain line could be causing my problems (everything seemed to be working, but the system was not cooling). He agreed to return yesterday afternoon. Alex returned and immediately started working on the condensate drain line without offering a quote. It was clogged and he showed me his work as he performed it. Meantime, the system had been running since his visit in the morning and seemed to be working okay, but not great, which had been the reason for the call. Alex asked about the filter again, which I repeated to him that I had removed and washed earlier in the week as it was dirty. I had told him this on his earlier visit in the morning. I had been researching what to do when an air conditioning system is running, but not blowing cold air. At some point he went outside to the condenser coils and saw ice building up on one of the lines. He then opened the air handler (where the filter is) and said that the filter was not properly covering the air intake opening. Upon further inspection, he found an accumulation of dust and dirt on the fan in the air handler. He suspected that the evaporator coils were also covered in dust and dirt but the air handler had a difficult to remove cover on it. After removing the cover, Alex removed another cover to expose the evaporator coils which were indeed covered in dust and dirt. He said it was also frozen and needed to defrost. He said he would have his installer come out the next morning (this morning, a Saturday) to finish the job on his installer's day off. Alex said, many times, I'm doing you a favor. I'm doing all of this work without charging you. I offered to pay him for his work and he declined. He said something about not quoting me a price up front. The thing was, I never asked him to do any of this. He just started opening the air handler and looking at things. He said, all of this would have cost you $800. (After this I searched "Cost to clean AC coils" and found estimates of $100-$400 on homeadvisor.com). He then asked me to remove my review. I am a reasonable person. There was nothing incorrect or not factual about my review. Alex was speaking to me with a raised voice in my own garage, pleading with me to remove my review and repeating that he was doing me a favor here. I again offered to pay him for his services and he declined again. I understand that his livelihood depends to a certain extent on good reviews. I know that he also understands that to get good reviews, particularly the five star reviews that he says are the only ones acceptable to him, he needs to provide five star service. Simply put, he did not. His installer arrived this morning thirty minutes later than the time that Alex told me he would arrive. He cleaned the coils and closed the air handler in about an hour. $800 would have been a hefty bill for the hour or two of Alex's time and the hour of his tech's. Alex has called and left two voicemails for me already today. Just so you know Alex, I'm not going to answer your calls. Alex has, at least twice, provided his Yelp reviewers last names when it was not on their Yelp profile, and at least once has published a reviewer's home address in his responses. Alex, should you do this with me I will not only report you to Yelp, I will report you to the Better Business Bureau and the Department of Consumer Affairs Contractors State License Board. Also Alex, you should know that if your phone calls continue I will report you to the authorities for harassment. This also applies should you try to text my mobile phone. Finally, Alex, you should know that none of this would be exposed on Yelp if you had not called me in response to my initial review. If I hadn't answered that call, you never would have returned, and none of this would have happened. Sort his reviews before you decide. I know I learned a lesson here. Also, had he looked at the filter in the morning it could have been a vastly different outcome. read more

First off Airmaxx is phenomenal company to do business with but if given the choice, I highly recommend working with Sam Khaz. I used them for my A/C 2 years ago and have since had multiple friends do the same . Regarding Sam, he recently completed a job installing a new furnace for me. The system he recommended is a GAME CHANGER. I can barely hear it running. Additionally, the pricing was extremely reasonable. read more

Very quick to respond, professional, courteous, technically great. Fixed our problems very efficiently. Would recommend them to anyone!

I can't say enough good recommendations about this company. We had been quoted from another air and heating conditioning company, The salesman claimed we need a much larger unit for our home.( we live in a condo) But then he told us the price. OUCH. Then we called Airmaxx. Alex Glozamn, came out to our home. Said our home would be fine with a smaller unit and it's a Carrie! The other sales person had a good unit, but i feel Carrie is more Superior unit then a Rheem. The men who installed the air and heating product were Vitali, Roman, Vladimir were fast and very professional.It had been raining. They cleaned up in a timely fashion. We are so please. Our new unit is so quiet for the heater. It's winter so we have yet to use the air. This is a good company! read more

Diagnosed the cooling problem with our air conditioning in minutes and fixed the problem immediately. Very impressive.

Ok sooo I have to say that this company is amazing! I searched on yelp and I found them (top of the list) I messaged them and about 15 other spots because living with no AC is horrible especially at night trying to sleep lol. I just wanted to say this company is legit and very professional! The gave me an estimated time to arrive and met it. The tech Art Haitu is extremely nice and professional and helpful. I appreciate how well he knew about what he was talking about and was able to educate me since I know nothing lol. Also not to miss the initial diagnoses was FREE, and he went above and beyond to take care of my problem and again I greatly appreciate this company and the tech they sent me!! read more
