    Jason tested our new ducting and discovered that our intake box was leaking air from the attic at a…read morerate of a small bedroom every 10 minutes. WOW. So in the summer, instead of sucking in air from the inside of the house, it would be be sucking in 100F air from outside, making the AC inefficient. He took the time to drive to the store to get sealant to fix the leaks inside the intake box, and spent an hour applying the sealant himself. Did not ask for any extra money, did not complain, had a great attitude, and really wanted to make sure that he gave 150% effort to the customer. Then he re-tested the system and the system passed this time showing barely any leakage. Gave us the report and the paperwork needed for the building inspector. If you do your own HVAC upgrade without a city permit, you think you save money by not having to spend money on HERS testing. Nothing could be farther from the truth. When it comes to spending money, I'm cheap. I didn't realize that Jason's job is to make sure that the extra money you spend on upgrading your ducts/AC equipment to more efficient equipment is not in vain due to leaks in your ducts A+++ experience with using this company for HERS testing, and will recommend to others to use this company.

He came with the proper equipment to take accurate measurements, and generated a comprehensive report. He was very efficient. Furthermore, Jason had the HERS report sent to the City of Lake Forest electronically, so the city inspection went very smoothly. Great value for the services they provide, not only for the testing, but also for the reporting to the city inspectors. I highly recommend Jason and Reliance Energy Services. Thank you, Jason.

    Our old A/C system was no longer functioning reliably, and we had always wanted a Daikin system…read more After researching local companies, we decided to give Magnolia Heating & Cooling a try--and we're so glad we did. From the beginning, the team carefully evaluated our existing system and took the time to explain our options. They provided very reasonable quotes for several different systems, with a clear and detailed breakdown of costs so we could make an informed decision. They also helped us identify available discounts and rebates, which made a big difference. A special thank you to Don, who worked hard to justify the investment and answer all of our questions. Thanks to his knowledge and patience, my husband was finally able to get the Daikin system he had been hoping for. The installation process was fast, professional, and handled with great care. The crew was respectful of our home, paid attention to detail, and left everything spotless when the job was finished. We truly appreciate the excellent service from Jesse, Don, Andres, and Ivan. Their professionalism, honesty, and dedication made the entire experience smooth and stress-free. We highly recommend Magnolia Heating & Cooling to anyone looking for quality HVAC service at a fair price.

    This company is not for your average middle class consumer, maybe more for the wealthy? I don't…read moreknow, but as military family we are certainly not rich enough to use them. The company I use to use went out of business so I picked this company to try out since it's a Riverside local and I've seen their billboard in town. Initial call was for regular summer maintenance and their employee Adrian was nice and informative but did say I had a problem with my mini split that would require a follow up service call. Fast forward to this week. Jesse (also nice employee - no beef there) came out and said he could not determine issue with mini split under the service call ($75) and so he'd have to call the AC manufacturer and talk with them to discover the problem. This would be an advanced diagnostic and a fee of $230 AND I was warned that if he was on hold for a long time it would still charge by the hour and it could be up to $400+ just for him to be on the phone!!! WILD. Luckily he got through in a decent amount of time and during that that diagnostic with the manufacturer on the phone he said I needed a new condensation pump at a whopping $892. I could swallow a $1000 bill (while dying inside) so of course agreed to it, completely my choice. After that fix however the AC was not blowing cold so then he said it needed a leak detection test at $455. So from that diagnostic (are you counting this will be the 3rd diagnostic during the same day!) he said he found 4 flares leaking and to fix them and top of the refrigerant lost I was looking at approximately $1,598 MORE- this is where I finally decided to stop the madness and decline further service. I would be at near $3k to fix a mini split that was less than 5 years old! Granted this company did not do initial install but O-M-G for these prices it was halfway to buying a new one!! They did in the end take off $233 from the final bill because I had signed up for their maintenance club membership on the initial call but after I use my last regular cleaning service from them in the winter I will no longer be using this company. So 1 star for having amazing friendly technicians but minuses all the other stars for the absolutely ridiculous diagnostic charges that don't even go towards the cost of repair and for my air conditioner still not working close to $1400 dollars later.

My 86-year-old mother lives alone and recently told me that her house has been freezing for months. Because I do not live close by, I sent an HVAC serviceman out (from another company) to look at her system. After seeing pictures of the attic and HVAC components, it was clear that she needed an entirely new system, including air ducts (which had decayed through the years) and she needed additional blown-in insulation to reach an R30 factor. Using Yelp and other Google searches, I identified four HVAC contractors in her area. Two of the four estimators were arrogant and had trouble answering my questions over the phone. They spent most of their time telling me how good their companies were and how bad the competition was (even though I did not give them their names). The other two contractors, one of which was OakRidge Energy, seemed very experienced. Both were very kind to my mother and were very professional with me over the phone. The two arrogant guys provided ridiculously high quotes. The third was quite a bit less. OakRidge provided the best price and threw in a free "before and after duct pressure test." My mother was so happy that I had chosen OakRidge Energy because she "really liked the guy that came out to estimate the job." We signed the contract on a Wednesday, the team arrived on that Friday, and they had the entire job completed by 3:00 pm that Saturday, just three days after signing the contact. The office team, Rebecca and Hannah, were excellent as well. They were always available, pleasant to work with, knowledgeable, and very responsive. And the owner, Chris, responded to each of my technical questions, via email, in minutes. Although I did not meet the installers, my mother, sister, and brother-in-law did. They were all very impressed with how Armando, Carlos, and Cesar went about their business. They were very pleasant, were very clean and organized, knew exactly what they were doing, and seldom took a break. I asked my sister to look over the review that I had written. Here is her response unedited.... "Randy that was PERFECT! They were amazing & so professional. We all felt so comfortable with them that Mom went away for the day and Phil & I sat downstairs. Never once did we feel we needed to stand over or watch them, it was weird how much trust we had in them they just came across as hard working, honest guys and they truly were. We really got lucky with them and trust me Mom is warm up there." I strongly recommend that you ask OakRidge Energy to provide an estimate for a home energy survey or an HVAC system upgrade, if needed.

Alex and Rob sent us videos and product information on how to fix the leaks that were discovered in all the floor registers. Today, Rob and Alex the owners came out and inspected my floor registers and looked at my Unit to make sure there were no leaks. The owners and office staff are amazing.

Robert Bachus, the owner of AHP Testing made time immediately to help us out. We were up against a deadline to open the restaurant, and unfortunately failed our first air balancing test. Robert did not just deliver the bad news and move to his next appointment. Instead he helped us troubleshoot the cause of failure and coordinated closely with the HVAC contractor we were using. Robert led the way to specify and share with the team the exact amperage and CFM levels needed to pass the test. After we hustled to source the items Robert advised us on, he put us back on his already busy testing calendar for the following day. As murphy's law would have it; Robert shows up with all his gear, we turn the exhaust system on and it still was not working properly. Rob made his way to the roof to troubleshoot and even made some adjustments to the fan belt - going way above and beyond! Not 40-minutes later we passed our air balance test! Throughout the process Robert was steadfast, calm, resourceful, collegial, and above all humble when we praised him for all the help he gave to us. AHP Testing receives our full endorsement for quality work and savvy troubleshooting skills. We won't ever use another Testing service other than AHP Testing. We appreciate you, Robert Bachus!

That's where it ended. I was given a 3 hour window for their arrival. I have tenants and they were going to be in and out so I waited at my home for the technician to call and say that they were on the way, so I could head over. I sat for hours waiting and when the window was almost over, the technician called and said he was stopping for lunch. I certainly don't want to deny someone food when they're hungry, but this caused him to finally show up :40 past the end of the window, which messed up the rest of my afternoon work obligations. He performed the test quickly and then said he was going to his truck to get my paperwork and would be back in :10. He was gone for almost :30. He asked my preference for dates for them to schedule the final inspection with the city. He said someone from their office would call to let me know the date and time range. That never happened. I called their office TWICE and after being on hold for :10 both times, it went to voicemail. I left voicemails with very specific info but no one ever called back. I had to troll around the city website and finally found my address listed with an appointment for the following day. Good thing I searched. Absolutely zero instructions or time specifics and while I realize this was a city thing, iPermit were the ones who should have provided me the specifics. Run, don't walk away from this company, if given a choice.

The garage stayed noticeably cooler with the full ridge vent so yay! The job took 4-days, really 3.5-days with the first 0.5 being a crew who peeled off the old shakes the first day and some supply delivery. 2nd was delivering more supplies, checking for dry rot, replacing as needed, and starting the plywood, and waterproofing. 3rd was shingling and gutters (separate crews), 4th finishing everything up including painting the vents to match with the new roof. Very efficient and well cleaned up after.

Originally, we contacted them hoping to do a spot repair. What really impressed me was that Adam and his team refused to do it. They explained clearly that a spot repair would not be a real solution and would likely fail again. They could have easily taken our money, but instead they were honest and upfront about what actually made sense long term. That level of integrity is rare and immediately set them apart After walking us through the condition of our roof, they recommended replacing the entire section. At first, it felt like a bigger decision, but once everything was explained, it made complete sense. The tile roof was over 30 years old, and doing the job correctly meant addressing the full area rather than applying a temporary fix. We moved forward with their recommendations and are very glad we did.. It's also worth mentioning that NEMA Roofing Solutions is not the cheapest option and that's actually a good thing. You truly get what you pay for. You're paying for experiences, proper advice, quality materials, skilled workmanship, and a company that stands behind what they do. They focus on doing the job right, not cutting corners or offering quick fixes that don't last. The crew was professional, organized, and respectful of our property, and the job site was kept clean throughout the project. Communication was excellent from start to finish. Adam was always available to answer questions and explain the processes , which made the entire experience straightforward and stress-free. The finished roof looks great, and we also received a full warranty, which gave us peace of mind knowing the work is properly backed. Based on our experience, it's easy to see why NEMA Roofing Solutions has such a strong reputation. If you're looking for a roofing company that values honesty, quality, and long term solutions over cheap pricing, I highly recommend NEMA Roofing Solutions. We're extremely happyy with the result and would absolutely use them again!!!
