[[HIGHLIGHT]]I needed my gravity furnace maintenance and I lucked out by calling Apollo heating for several reasons. First they had a cancellation and were able to squeeze me in and second because the technician was smart, reliable and friendly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Chris, fixed errors made by other techs (another company), cleaned the plot light- it was weak from dust and debris and then spent some time figuring out why my thermostat wouldn't turn off. No one could expect that a brand new thermostat, that I purchased from a big box store, could be faulty and cause such a headache. He had one that he installed in his truck and it worked perfectly. Big shout out to Apollo!! read more

Flawless. Very helpful and professional. Extraordinary in their ability to get the job done in record time.

We had a ventilation issue in our building. Apolllo Heating and Ventilating was recommended to us by a neighbor. it was the right choice to resolve the problem. It was easy to work with them. They are very efficient. The technician Chris was prompt and explained everything in detail. Replacing the flue was done well. As for value. My neighbors said Apollo's charges were reasonable. We went with their opinion instead of researching it oursellve. Our job had to be done as soon as possible. Apollo came the next day to assess the job and provide and estimate. Highly Recommend. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Our heater had been out since last year. A PG&E representative checked it out, and couldn't fix it. He recommended Apollo Heating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We had to wait awhile to get an appointment, but when we did, the serviceman was here and replaced the needed part, along with the thermostat. Did I mention that our heater is over half a century old? Chris did a great job! We are happy and now WARM! read more

Apollo installed our furnace years ago and did a fantastic job. We were having issues with our heater turning on but quickly shutting off. [[HIGHLIGHT]]After a few weeks of dealing with it, we wanted it fixed asap. Apollo was my first call - they were booked out for a week so I called around.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Several others were responsive and I had someone come out to diagnose. It seemed like it would be an expensive part. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I called Apollo back to get advice and given a cancellation they booked me the following day.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Technician Chris diagnosed the issue with skill and it wasn't a parts issue. He resolved within the hour and the heater is back and running. Don't hesitate to call Apollo. They are true professionals and quotes are fair and reasonable. read more

Living in the hills off 280 you get used to the fog and cold weather...as long as your heater works. Well, the heater wouldn't come on and it got to about 58* so everything was cold dammit! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Contacted Apollo HVAC through Yelp and they were able to come out the next day![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The total cost was under $300 parts and labor and now we are nice and cozy with the heater on! Great job Apollo HVAC! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]They responded to my phone call and set up an appointment the following day.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They actually arrived early and were quick to diagnose my heaters problem. They fixed the heater and checked out my thermostat to be sure that everything was working properly. They could not have been more professional and personal. I wish all service companies were like this! Their charges were very reasonable and worth every penny. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Had great experience with Apollo heating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] . I was told to replace the entire furnace but he fixed the issue with very reasonable cost, also installed a new thermostat. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I'm so happy with the service. Highly recommends![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

9 AM on the Saturday before Christmas, Chris just left our place. Ages ago, we had someone else come work on our monster of a furnace so, when it stopped working this time, I called him again. He took a look and said the valve needed to be replaced but, as it was an old gravity furnace, the part would be harder to find. Fast forward a few days. I happen to be passing a heating/plumbing supply store the day before Thanksgiving, show them a picture of my heater, and ask about a replacement valve. They say they have something that will work with a little modification. I call the heating guy and have him talk to the store owner. I'm told to buy the part and call the heating guy back after Thanksgiving. I call the following week but didn't reach him. I send a follow up text. No reply. I try several times over the next couple of weeks without success. I start to think he's intentionally avoiding me, so I have my sister reach out. No luck. He vanished. Here's where Apollo Heating comes in. Our two sons are coming in from Florida a few days after Christmas. Florida, where it's been in the 70s all week, those two kids don't even own proper jackets. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I called last Friday to see if Apollo could come fix the issue. Manny, the owner, says they're swamped but call Monday. Go figure, winter is their busiest time! I call back Monday, nothing is open on the calendar, but he says to call back Tuesday. I call back Tuesday, no cancellations yet. Wednesday, Manny calls and says they'll squeeze me in on Saturday at 8 AM.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] 7:45 AM this morning, Chris (Manny's son) shows up, tells me it's not the valve that's the problem, fixes the issue with the furnace, installs the new thermostat, and is on his way in just about an hour. Really, I couldn't ask for better service from these guys. Thanks, Apollo, the boys will no longer have to wear parkas inside! Happy holidays! read more

Apollo Heating & Ventilating - Our big green monster - Heating & Air Conditioning/HVAC Near Me - San Francisco, California

I have a very old Mars Furnace in a rental unit that just stopped working. I examined the unit found a service sticker which indicated the company that installed it. This thing is probably about 50 years old and i was surprised the HVAC company was even in business. They told me parts were not available but they could replace it for $5500. I called Apollo and Christine sent me a tech same day and he replaced the ignition and fixed the unit in one trip and saved me about 5K. Honest company and great job! read more

Apollo Heating & Ventilating - My 50+ year old furnace - Heating & Air Conditioning/HVAC Near Me - San Francisco, California

Heating unit went out on my mother in laws house. I got three estimates and they all suggested replacing the unit for between $6k and $7k. The last shop said I needed to replace our ducts too so I decided to call Apollo. Good thing I did. They asked why I wanted a quote on replacing the unit, so I explained that three shops had already suggested replacement. They said that most shops don't have the expertise to fix older units and replacing is much more lucrative so most shops will just suggest replacement. They suggested calling PG&E and gave them come out and see whether they would suggest replacement or if it can be repaired. They even gave me the phone number to call at PG&E as I didn't know PG&E offered this service. PG&E came out and said they could not get the blower working and I explained my story. He asked what company had suggested I call PG&E and I told him Apollo. His response was "Oh, Apollo, they've been around for decades and they do a lot of business in SF. They thought it would be well worth it to try fixing vs replacing the whole unit. I scheduled my appointment with Apollo and the repair person was actually early... he called to offer to arrive a bit earlier, which was great with me. He repaired our unit for $600, which saved me $5,400. Time will tell whether their fix lasts but it's working great so far! Thank you Apollo!!! read more

This company is a complete rip-off. They took advantage of three young women and a landlord who doesn't speak English well. Their technician came unprepared -- didn't even have a lighter -- and made empty promises about fixing our water heater. He left without doing anything and still overcharged us. Absolutely unacceptable and unethical behavior. Stay far away! Would leave zero stars. read more

We have a water heater that busted and an old faucet sink in the bathroom that was getting rusted and old. Luckily we were able to turn off the water and were not in a rush to fix it yet . He was nice to fit us In his schedule in a couple days. This is the 2nd time to use Apollo Heating in the past 15 years and service is always prompt and perfect read more

My second experience with this business was not as good as my first, so updating my review. Positive: accommodating and got the job done Negative: The repair this time included parts and I got charged more than double the market rate for these readily available parts. Was not given a quote, just a final invoice. Will explicitly ask for a quote if I end up using their services in the future read more

Always great! Have been using for over 40years. Father and now son offer great service. They are the Best! Quick! Honest! Very knowledgeable! read more

Chris was great, helpful and friendly, fixed my 1938 Biltwell furnace in less than half an hour, and charged me less than my weekly grocery bill! I was so happy I found the sticker on the furnace when I bought the house a decade ago. I was so grateful he was so knowlegable. Excellent! read more

Hands down the best in The City. They're busy but they are prompt, reliable, & knowledgeable. Chris worked on our very complicated system and gave it a lot of thought and care. Do not hesitate to use Apollo, they are first class. JGMoore read more

The service repairman Chris was honest, efficient, and knowledgeable. He saved me the price of a new furnace that all the other repairman were recommending because they didn't know how to fix our old 1970 furnace. He also shared his knowledge and suggestions for maintenance. His price was reasonable and I would definitely use him again. read more

Apollo Heating & Ventilation is a top notch REPAIR service and don't just replace older heaters like most shops do. Three shops gave us estimates of around $6k to replace my heating unit. Fortunately, I chose to call Apollo and they actually suggested that I call PG&E to give us a free heater evaluation on whether the heater could be fixed or replaced. I was blown away as I didn't even know PG&E would do this at no cost. I called PG&E and they said most companies just replace heaters because they don't have the expertise to fix the heaters and it makes them more money. The PG&E person who came out said they cannot recommend any company but asked who I was considering. When I said Apollo, he said they see a lot of Apollo work around SF and they have been around forever... He said he would choose them if he had any problems. Chris came out from Apollo and fixed the heater for $600. Time will tell but right now, Apollo saved me $5400 vs replacing the unit. read more

Simply put... punctual, repairs done quickly and fairly priced. Chris was our technician and he was extremely nice and he diagnosed, repaied, and finished quickly. Very pleased!!! read more

Apollo has fast service, fair price, and everything on the truck that I needed to service my wall heater in the apartment.

I called others to check out my furnace and all were booked solid for weeks. I called Apollo, who I remembered before had helped me. They responded the same day. Chris arrived and within minutes diagnosed the problem. Not only did he find the problem which PGE could not, he also had the part to replace a condensate pump. Within 45 minutes, the heat was on. What's amazing is how fair their pricing is. I give Apollo and Chris the highest ranking. Do yourself a favor and call them for any furnace repairs. read more

I called to let them know that my parent's heating system was on the brink and possibly a new system would be needed. They said to me we will fix it. They were correct! They evaluated the system and fixed. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great customer service.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Highly recommended! read more

Had a 1983 Day & Night (Carrier/Bryant) furnace that stopped working. Called 5 places, only 2 would even look at it. Chris came over and diagnosed the problem in 15 minutes and had us up and running in 30. 110% recommend if you have an older furnace repair. read more

I called for an appointment and Manny (owner) was able to quickly schedule a mutually convenient day and time for his serviceman to come out to repair a furnace (probably from the 1960's) in one of our apartment units. On the scheduled date, the serviceman, Chris, arrived promptly and was able to quickly diagnosed the problem and replaced the gas valve control during the same visit (he carried replacement parts in his truck). Great service, quick, honest, knowledgeable, and courteous. I would not hesitant to call Apollo Heating for future repairs. read more

I called Apollo Heating & Venting 1 (415) 585-3635 for an over hearted wall furnace. Christ came for the rescue. He was on time, calm, polite, explanative and cleans the area as he works. Apollo Heating and Venting company has my business for life. I strongly recommend them. read more

Chris came to my place on time. He inspected my old furnace and found the problem quickly. He gave me many suggestions. After that, I asked him to help fix the vent that fell down from the wall in my bedroom and Chris fixed the vent quickly. Really good experience and the charge is reasonable! read more

Three days before Christmas, we smelled gas in our basement/garage at 3:00 p.m. Called PG&E. They came right out. PG&E said we had a problem and shut off the furnace. IT WAS VERY COLD OUTSIDE and getting cold indoors. Apollo had worked on our furnace before, so we called them right away. Manny said he was swamped, and asked me to call the next morning. Throughout the morning, he worked to fit us in. By that afternoon, the furnace was repaired! And this was with his phone ringing off the hook! Chris fixed only what needed to be fixed and did not try to sell unnecessary parts. A very satisfying experience. read more

The technician came by this morning right on time and replaced our inducer fan for our Carrier furnace. The price was reasonable and he was very professional and had a very kind demeanor to him (not slimy at all). They take credit card, which is nice and he was done in about 15 minutes. The person I spoke to on the phone was also really helpful and nice when I first make an inquiry. So glad we went with Apollo!!!! read more

Outstanding experience with Apollo. They are in demand but worth the wait! Excellent and no Nonsense! Apollo came and repaired / replaced our York furnace transformer. Their price was excellent and beat competitors by $hundreds$ The only draw back is they are booked up But absolutely worth the wait! Bravo and Thank you Apollo Heating Team!!! Thank you for being of high quality and reputation! read more

Chris solved a problem with my ancient gravity heater that most wouldn't touch or if they would charged 4 times more. Even had one company scare me with tactics to worry about. Chris was professional and honest and informative and saved the day! Fixed my heater on the spot where everyone had to order the parts. I have heat! And don't have to wait days! He is a problem solver and will offer a fair price! Use him and you won't be disappointed! read more

Apollo Heating is terrific!! Chris was here today - cleaned thermostat contacts and burner orifices - now my gravity furnace blasts heat once again - yay! First engaged Apollo back in early 2013 when they replaced the igniter which is still operating strong. Now, 10 years later the furnace only needed a quick clean to operate more efficiently. A million thanx to the Apollo team! Easy to book an appointment, personnel are kind and clear communicators, on time service, they fix what is necessary and don't upsell "extras", excellent value with reasonable prices - a dependable company with integrity - highly recommended!! :) read more

I have an old gravity furnace and the pilot went out on it's own for the first time I've owned the house in 20 plus years. I called Apollo during this crazy cold and wet deluge we were having, and Manny told me they were swamped and that PG&E will come and try to light it if I wanted to try them first. I had a feeling it wasn't just needing to be lit so I scheduled them to come out for the next week. John came out right on time and found the issue and also let me know I put on a thermostat that was wrong for my system. He replaced it with a new one. My old one would not kick in unless I moved the stick past 68 degrees and had to move it around back and forth for it to kick in. With the new thermostat I can set it at a much lower temperature and it will kick in and moderate there. Plus the new thermostat can be shut off completely to not turn heat on. Really appreciated both Manny and John for their professionalism. Highly recommend Apollo Heating. read more

We decided last winter to replace our aging gravity furnace, and this spring called a few companies to get quotes. Manny came out and walked through in great detail what the steps would be - including knocking through to a room that previously never had heating. I'm a reasonably technical and handy guy, so was very happy to have detailed discussions about things as minor as the current draw for the electric fan! When I called to say they got the job - "when can we install?" the answer came back: "Wednesday?" I was thinking, what, you mean two month's on Wednesday, but no - they meant in 48 hours' time! Amazing speed and efficiency. The install, which took two days, was brilliant. They took exceptional care to do a quality job. Our old house presented a few unforeseen issues, but Apollo took care of everything with no complaints. Quality service, a fine product, good guys, and a decent price. I highly recommend Apollo Heating. read more

Apollo Heating & Ventilating - A clean install. - Heating & Air Conditioning/HVAC Near Me - San Francisco, California

It's been about 5 years since I've needed to use their service again. The communication with this company is always great, they call ahead of time to confirm your appointment and again when they are in route. I had a small issue with one of our apartments wall heater and Chris fixed it and have it a thorough cleaning/service. He even has time to take a quick look at our other two apartments wall heaters. Thanks Chris!! read more

Just had Chris come by and solve, what turned out to be a simple, problem with our home heating system. Arrived a little before scheduled time (yea) and was courteous and efficient. We used Apollo about 10 years ago and was happy then and remain so today. read more

A few years ago, my new furnace developed a problem right after the warranty expired. After reading and looking, found Apollo. Called, left a message and got a call back the next day, and scheduled a service call for 2 days later. Manny came, took about 20 or so minutes, and fixed the problem. About a week ago, the furnace acted up again. Couple of days later, called Apollo, left and message, and a day later Manny called. Came by today, fixed it in 15 minutes. Amazing! The guy is a champ. read more

So happy that I called Apollo Heating! My furnace stopped working over 3 years ago and it was something I was putting off and dreading. Thought for sure I would need a new furnace. Chris came out and assured me that the furnace could be fixed instead of installing a whole new heating system. It has been so cold this winter so it was time to get it fixed. Chris fixed it in no time and I have heat again!! Reasonable prices; friendly service; great company!! read more

Professional, skilled, and delivers excellent immaculate work. That's what these guys are. We hired them to redo the heating for our entire house, a pretty big job that we expected to take at least a couple days. Little did I know, Manny and his crew did it all in one day! They arrived at 9am and by 5pm they were out the door, and even left the worksite cleaner than before! The result was a work of art. (Just check out the pictures!) Manny paid attention to every detail. Made sure all the pipes and joints were secured and taped. After everything's done they test the system and balance the airflow, making sure every room is evenly heated. Moreover, what sets them apart is they bring in their pipes neatly pre-wrapped from their shop, which is how they deliver their immaculate quality. Their price was competitive, compared to several other guys we contacted. Manny was straightforward and didn't try to up-sell me on larger furnaces I didn't need. Their office was responsive and we were able to get an appointment within less than a week. Since we had an older system, they also arranged for us another contractor for asbestos removal, which went just as smoothly and professionally. Two thumbs up! Thanks for the great work guys! P.S.: The Manny I mentioned here is the son. If you call the office, you might get his father, who's also named Manny. They sound the same over the phone (and also kinda look the same in person.) Hopefully this might clear up some confusion! :D read more

Five years later after servicing my older model heater, I had to call them again as my heater wasn't turning on. Chris was professional and efficient.. Answered all my questions clearly and came across as very knowledgeable and gave me honest advice. He detected the problem immediately and repaired on the spot.
