Every team member we've interacted with has been kind, professional, and genuinely respectful. Beyond simply being the company we liked most, their quote was also very competitive. In the two years since the installation, we've needed a few airflow adjustments, and each time the process has been easy-scheduling is smooth, and the work is handled efficiently and without any hassle. It's refreshing that their crew is alway, literally always, happy to answer questions, explain things, etc.

Thankfully, my own insurance covered the majority of the repairs--White's Liberty Mutual paid nothing. Having said that, the techs that have come out since (2ce/year) have ALL been great. Professional, friendly, lots of photos, explanations, respectful, etc. This year, I have had the pleasure of meeting Simon, he has come out 2ce. He is thorough, thorough, thorough. Patiently explains what's going on. I am delighted to recommend him. You will not regret his service call. (I can't speak to the pricing of other issues)

On March 9th, 2026 White Mechanical installed a new Lennox furnace for us.  We were offered an…read moreelectrostatic air filter option with the Costco purchase, but we declined that expensive option. The installation proceeded as expected and the installer did a very clean and professional job.   However, we asked the installer to demonstrate how to replace the air filter, we were dismayed at the complexity of the replacement.  We must remove the outside cover, then using a special tool, remove the interior cover to access the filter. Then, making sure we do not disturb any of the loose wires nearby, we then remove the filter hold-down bracket with the special tool and swap filters. Then carefully replace all the parts & panels in reverse order until restored.   I was dismayed at the complexity of the furnace filter exchange, as the other Lennox furnace we have has a simple door, allowing the filter to be changed in 10 seconds, instead of 10-15 minutes, requiring a special tool. See attached photo.  I must admit it, it was my expectation to receive a simple way to replace the filter with the new furnace, being the best brand on the market with a rather expensive install.  White Mechanical offered to install a simple filter box below the furnace, so we can swap filters quickly like downstairs, but the quote was $1,100 more, almost as much as the electronic filter we rejected due to the cost. White Mechanical also offers an annual service program with the first year free, including a filter change. However, after the first year, the annual cost would likely be several hundred dollars. I can't help but wonder if the filter issue isn't part of a scheme to create an annual gravy train in service fees. I am also puzzled by the Lennox warranty requirement of annual inspections, which could invalidate future warranty claims, if not followed. Talk about teaming-up against the customer.

He was patient in explaining the work being done, sharing new technologies that are available and answering questions (especially since our AC system is on the older side). The price was reasonable for the performed and Brent's expertise gave us confidence that our AC will work smoothly when we need it. I also appreciate how he took the extra step to keep our home clean by using shoe covers. We continue to appreciate the service that Mission Viejo provides to keep our HVAC running smoothly!

The good news is I can report several months (almost a year now) later everything is working great. On July 4th my air conditioner decided it wanted it's independence! I reached out via Yelp to few companies, I truly was not expecting anyone to answer or return my call during the holiday but much to my surprise Mission Viejo Heating & Air did! I spoke with John - no rushed phone call, even on a holiday! John came to my house within a day or so, again it was a holiday weekend. John reviewed all of options in detail - he was professional, knowledgeable, polite - everything you hope for when working with a larger expense for your home and don't know a lot about it! Leo (main installer) was amazing - hard working, accommodating, and very knowledgeable! Poor guy was in my attic, which felt like it was 120+ degrees, for hours! I did recently reach out for a for a service call out. I wanted to discuss a few other options that were originally discussed but at the time I waited on. Gabby took care of scheduling me - great customer service, polite, and considerate of my request and needs. Martin came out to address my later service call request, he was on time, professional and informative. He reviewed some options with me, and spent time answering all my "is this possible, and what if" questions (and trust me I have them). We had new carpet installed recently and he made sure to wear booties - so considerate. When you have situations in your home that need immediate attention, I understand the stress and time constraints you can be under to get repairs in a timely manner - you must reach out to this company! Believe me, I do my homework - I can't recommend Mission Viejo Heating and Air enough!

Sydney in Customer Service possesses professionalism and a great interpersonal skill set which IMO - a true asset for the One Season Team Tysm Rebecca & Sydney ! Aubrey the lead technician is very experienced and skilled. He showed up during the time range provided to me, and called beforehand to provide me with an ETA. He even put on booties when entering my house! Also, I find the entire One Season Team to be trustworthy. They never tried to upsell or fear monger like Triton or Goettle who used their Acquisition of SoCal Air Flow Pro's to gain entry into my home to try and sell me plumbing and inspection services (Customer Beware!). I schedule for a HVAC check up and they send me a plumber who states the HVAC associate will call in a few days and bever did! One Season is a unicorn in today's service business: exceptional and skilled employees, honesty and fair pricing that does not prey on homeowners at their moment of vulnerability. Wholeheartedly recommend!!

Jorge came out, listened to what happened, went up to the attic to inspect the furnace and found a fuse that had blown out. He replaced the fuse and was done within 15 - 30 minutes. Done. $145 out the door. I wondered if he could check our air conditioning unit to do any maintenance on it (which is what so many people say MUST be done once a year), and Jorge said that is not necessary. He said our HVAC unit is working fine and should be fine for the next 10 - 15 years! He said that the only "maintenance" that needs to be done is to replace the filters once a year (which is what we do anyway). He didn't try to upsell us on any unnecessary service or product. 5+ stars!

Excellent experience thus far for the following reasons:…read more 1. SERVICE 2. DIAGNOSTIC ANALYSIS 3. TRANSPARENCY 4. CLEAR COMMUNICATION 5. REPAIR OPTIONS WITH ELIGIBLE DISCOUNTS 6. PUNCTUALITY 7. THOROUGH EVALUATION We met with the following specialists: SEAN O'HARA (AC repair) - AC stopped emitting cool air. Fixed issue w/ filter repair. ALFRED BIRNHAUPL (AC leak repair) - Fixed pipe leak from AC and completed comprehensive assessment of our dysfunctional zoning system. DOMENICK ALONGE (project manager) - Reviewed findings from Alfred, provided detailed indication of issues and resolution options with several quotes. Here's why our experience has been superior to previous companies: All three specialists were not only punctual, friendly, and courteous, but they took their time to evaluate our issues in CLEAR layman terms corroborated by photos, and showing us exactly where the problems were in person. We previously obtained a quote from a large corporate company and was left feeling dumbfounded and stressed as they described the nature of our problem in engineering, technical jargon that made absolutely no sense, including astronomical quotes without explanation of the work entailed. We continued experiencing intermittent issues with our AC and heater so we called Friends & Family based on their excellent reviews. This time around, with Friends & Family, we left feeling knowledgeable and reassured, with reasonable quotes including various discount eligibility. We didn't feel pressured by them to choose one route vs. the other; rather, gained the information we needed to make an informed decision that would prevent such issues in the future. Overall, their attention to detail, ability to explain the issues and resolution routes in simple, concrete terms, were far superior than the preceding company. They exceeded our expectations and we much appreciated their patience and openness to answering all our questions. I also want to mention that I was gardening when SEAN was fixing our AC. He saw me struggling to dig a hole for my plant and volitionally offered to help me. He took the extra time to dig the hole for me, exemplifying his genuine kindness and generosity! Similarly, my kids were running amuck and screaming and shouting while I attempted to maintain a conversation with ALFRED. He was very understanding and continued to engage in conversation, appearing unbothered by the chaos with a pleasant disposition. Lastly, DOMENICK was appointed on the day of our son's birthday. He related to us interpersonally and even helped assemble my son's new Radio Flyer bike! I told him that Sean also helped me garden and we laughed about how Friends & Family is a "one-stop shop." Given everything I mentioned, we're excited to have our overdue AC/heater system fully repaired by Friends & Family. We can't wait for our longstanding issues to be behind us, and we anticipate leaving an updated review once the work is complete!

Rigoberto wore booties too and it is always so nice when contractors respect your home.

He was respectful of the property, used shoe covers before entering, and asked permission before moving things around. You notice those little things when you've had a bad experience in the past. I would say the value is also worth it. It was $85 for the tune-up. I was obviously looking for something cheaper but you get what you pay for. Overall great service!!
