I recently had So Cal Air replace my entire HVAC system, including both the outdoor unit and the…read moreindoor air handler. I could not be happier with the experience. From the initial consultation through installation, Menooa and his team were professional, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. They also enlarged one of my return air vents to meet the higher airflow needs of the new HVAC system. The work required widening the opening in the ceiling and installing a new return grille. The crew handled it neatly and professionally. When they finished, it looked like new. The new system is working great, airflow is noticeably improved, and the entire project was completed fast and as promised. It's not often that a major home improvement project goes this smoothly. I would recommend So Cal Air to anyone looking for HVAC installation or replacement.

I had a good experience with Lions. When I bought my place a few years back, the inspector warned…read moreme the AC was in bad shape. I hired Lions and they did some work to try to mitigate, but said that it would be a problem down the line. Down the line arrived and I called Lions back when my AC was dripping excessive water. Turns out it was toast and needed replacement. I got a quote for replacement from them quickly. I shopped around and theirs was a little higher than others (5-10%ish) but I felt they had a very thorough quote that explained every step they would do, so I went with them. For the install, it was easy/quick to schedule. They told me it would take 3 days. Lions sent their subcontractors who did a really good job. It took the full 3 days to do the full install, and they were quiet, efficient, polite, and cleaned up after themselves. They did not damage my paint or walls at all. During the work, they determined there would be incremental work needed to make the system work more efficiently. They ran everything by me and asked permission before, and quoted me the incremental costs. In the end, I felt like it was the right thing to do. They spent time making new vents and ductwork for me for what seems like a very small incremental price for the amount of work. At the end, I asked them to walk me through all the work on video to explain the system which they obliged happily. One note is that my building HOA is very strict about going on the roof and doing installs to avoid damage to void the roof warranty. The roofers said they would charge me an egregious amount to supervise the HVAC guys to make sure it was done right. Instead, I got permission from my HOA not to bring the roofers as long as Lions did not damage or modify the roof. I explained this to them and they did a perfect job reusing the old mounts so no roof modifications were needed, saving me some liability. In the end, the new AC unit works very efficiently quietly and has new features to prevent the same problems my last one had. New AC will burn a hole in your pocket no matter what, but I'm glad I had it done well by Lions.

Of course, I realized my AC unit wasn't working in the midst of this hot, humid heatwave. I was…read moreimpressed with Lion's reviews, but what sealed the deal was a neighbor in my condo told me he's used them for a few years and that "Sammy's my guy." Sammy did a great job! He was on time, friendly, didn't try to up-sell me, explained everything to me clearly, and got my work done quickly. So glad I'm not sweating tonight! Moving forward, Sammy will by my guy too!

Richard arrived and was extremely thorough and explained everything he found during his diagnostic. He was very friendly and provided tips on how to best maintain my HVAC going forward. He was able to complete the diagnostic and repair during his visit. I was truly happy that Richard took the time to wait and check that everything was working well before leaving. He also followed up with a call later in the day to make sure everything was still working great, something that to me went above and beyond. I will absolutely keep Southwest as my go-to for HVAC going forward!

GOOD CUSTOMER SERVICE…read more Easy to communicate with. Michael and Alex got back to me with estimates immediately. Whether it was a phone call or text, they would respond anytime of day. They were super thorough in their in-person visit and caught a few things that other companies did not notice. For that, I was sure these guys knew what they were doing. They installed a mini split 18k btu in my home and were done in a day. No harm no foul. They offer peace of mind with their warranties and as of now everything works great.

We were referred to Garcia Systems by a friend and it ended up being a blessing. Jose and his team installed a new heat pump system in our home for far less than we were quoted by the local company. They did a great job during the install and even reran some ductwork that was not done properly. Jose communicates well, does not try to upsell you but most importantly he does quality work. I highly recommend him for all of your HVAC needs.

He came out and got…read moreour AC unit up and running again just in time for the heatwave--having cold air back has been such a relief! From the start, scheduling was simple and communication was fast and responsive. David went above and beyond to track down the replacement parts quickly and took the time to walk us through the repair process, answering all of our questions with patience and care. We really appreciated his professionalism, honesty, and attention to detail. The itemized quote was sent promptly by email, making everything clear and straightforward. Thank you again to David and Pioneers.

I woke up one Sunday morning to a nightmare scenario: something in my attic was leaking directly…read moreinto my kitchen. I assumed it was the AC unit sitting right above it, so I contacted Pioneers in a mild panic. They quickly put me in touch with Tomer, who showed up that same afternoon to take a look. From the moment he arrived, Tomer was calm, kind, and completely professional, which is exactly what you want when you're stressed about water dripping through your ceiling. He diagnosed the problem efficiently: our AC drip pan had overflowed due to a clogged drain pipe. He walked us through everything as he went, answering every question we threw at him without making us feel like we were slowing him down. He needed a couple of additional parts he didn't have on hand, so he promised to return Monday morning to finish the job. And he did, right on time. When yet another part turned out to be needed mid-repair, he didn't reschedule or leave us hanging. He went out, got it himself, and came straight back to finish what he started. No drama, no delays. While he was up in the attic, he also flagged some rat droppings and other pest concerns. But not in a pushy, upsell-y way, but just as a heads-up. "Here's what I'm seeing, I can get you a quote if you want." Refreshingly straightforward. Tomer turned a stressful Sunday emergency into a resolved problem by Monday afternoon. Thanks Pioneers H&A!

First of all, I have never, ever written a negative review. Please look at my profile for proof…read more I had a really regrettable experience with Air Elite Heating and Cooling--would strong suggest not using this business for any kind of product install. I paid $11,000 for a job that really is substandard. 1. Danny came to do my quote and was very nice, but when actual installation came he was not onsite. A very young and inexperienced guy installed the units basically in the middle of the wall. I was not consulted asked before the guy tore huge fist size holes in my wall that are in no way standard placement for mini splits. The guy moved the unit, I had to pay for the walls to be repaired and repainted! 2. The condenser was placed on the ground in the driveway. Again--I was never consulted about where it was to be installed. It should have been installed on the side of the house--it limits the function of my driveway forever. I cannot get my recycling/trash out if I am parked in my own driveway. 3. The drains that were placed on the outer wall of my house were installed so poorly that they constantly fall off. They were not adhered at all. When I put them back up, they are fitted so shoddily that they cannot be secured. Every time I pick them up and try to reassemble them--I can see how jankily they were put together. One of them is now cracked and water is spewing all over my wall. For nearly $11K spent, I feel really taken advantage of and bad about the integrity of their work. I contacted them in advance of this review with all of these points--they never responded.
