We had Comfort Energy install our split AC system several years ago after two other installers said…read more"it can't be done". We are in a townhouse with a connected wall so it proved too big of a challenge for the others. Comfort Energy was extremely professional and we've had our AC unit for years without incident. We do have an annual maintenance plan to ensure smooth running. This time, Agustin came out and he provided excellent service. He's actually the first tech to come out and clean our compressor with a detergent! Usually they just spray water. He also noticed we were missing a pollen filter and suggested the best way to find replacements on line. After the visit he sent us photos documenting everything he worked on. I'll be requesting Agustin again for our annuals.

Before contacting Comfort Energy, I replaced my filter, ensured the compressor was working, and the fans were on. My AC was still blowing warm.

He was friendly and explained to me how the refrigerant was low. The visit was incredibly informative. I highly recommend Comfort Energy!

After getting a very high quote from a major plumbing chain, we decided to contact Water Heater…read moreMasters. We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Water Heater Masters. Alex sent our technician, Rojo, who helped install a new 40-gallon gas water heater in our indoor utility closet, and he was incredibly diligent, professional, and efficient from start to finish. Installing a tank in an inside closet can be tricky, but Rojo handled the entire job seamlessly in just 2 hours. He replaced everything with high-quality components, including: * New hot and cold water flex lines * A brand new water shut-off valve * A new gas flex line and sediment trap * Fully reworked earthquake straps (to meet California safety codes) * Properly updated T&P line and venting He also took care of the removal and disposal of our heavy 18 yr old tank, leaving the utility closet completely clean. If you want fair pricing, expert specialized service, and a technician who respects your time and home, call Water Heater Masters and ask for Rojo. Highly recommended!

We were replacing a gas water heater with a hybrid electric heat pump water heater. Generally, this…read moretype of heater costs twice as much (price and installation) as a traditional electric water heater, but costs a lot less to run (and therefore you recoup the additional cost in a few years from lower operating costs). I had a very easy experience getting an on-site quote. I received 3 quotes for this job. 2 quotes, including this one, came in around $7100. I went with a third one at around $6700 (which included an additional mixing valve) and am very happy with my decision. Overall price was not a big part of my decision, but brand of water heater was. After doing some research online, the most recommended brands are AO Smith and Rheem (GE). Both higher quotes were for Navien, which has only been making heat pump water heaters for 1 year, but I was told that it is the most reliable brand. I did not understand how this claim could be made, given how short the duration of evaluation for this product. Even the worst appliances usually work for at least a year. So I requested a quote for AO Smith or Rheem, which I did not get. I'm not sure why my brand request was not honored, but it made me question whether I should go with a company that either has communication issues or maybe some type of deal with Navien that I was not informed about. Many water heater installers are preferred installers of certain brands, which means they can get better pricing, etc. I did not want to be a guinea pig for Navien.

Wish we knew about Efficient Water Heaters sooner…read more We had to replace our tankless water heater on short notice and had a new Navien tankless water heater installed by another company. Unfortunately, it took 2+ mins to get hot water. The installers came back multiple times over many weeks trying to fix it -- no luck. In desperation, we called Joseph at Efficient Water Heaters who came out and quickly diagnosed the installation issue. The next day, Omar performed the work and now (finally!) our Navien operates as intended. This business is Navien certified and it shows; they definitely know what they are doing. Oh, and they're very personable & professional throughout. Just call or text them to solve your water heater needs. No need to mess around with anyone else.

It's hard to find someone who is honest, reliable, patient, and genuinely takes pride in their work. If you have any plumbing issues, call Giovanni, you won't regret it!

I am a Farmers Insurance agent and I've worked with plenty of clients who needed this device put in, and I've met some of the plumbers they've used. None of them impressed me the way Obalit did. He showed up on time today and finished the whole job in under two hours, less than the timeframe he'd estimated, and that's with a lot of extra unplanned work because my plumbing system is older and needed attention. The finished job is super professional and looks great. His handyman assistant, Michael, even took care of some extra work I needed done, which was a lifesaver. For all the extra plumbing and handyman work that came up beyond the original plan, his pricing was extremely reasonable. He's fast, he's excellent at what he does, and he's incredibly easy to talk to and work with. If you need anything plumbing-related ... plumbing, drain cleaning, gas, or sewer, he's your man. I highly recommend him.

I wish I had written down the name of the operator who scheduled my appointment but she was polite, professional, and courteous. She went above and beyond to find an appointment that worked with my schedule. She called back as promised and I was never left hanging or waiting for information. 5 stars for the operator, thank you! My technician was Victor who arrived during the scheduled time window. He was very knowledgable about the HVAC systems used for the homes in my neighborhood. He was able to quickly confirm the issue, diagnose the problem, and find a solution. He then performed a series of tests to confirm the issue had been solved. During each step of the process he explained what was happening in a way that was easy to understand. I now have a much better idea of what my system is doing and how it operates. 5 stars for Victor and I'm grateful for his service.

Disappointed after reading the reviews. These guys are in the same town. I figured I'd give them a…read moretry for installing an adding a mini split addition to supplement hot/cold spots in my kitchen. Not only did they not listen to my needs, the whole time they offered solutions that cater to what they want instead of what I want. 1. They recommend dual zoning which cost about the same amount as installing a new mini split. I have a single state HVAC which isn't recommended for dual zone install. 2. They keep pushing for fixing/upgrading central instead of installing mini splits. 3. They keep asking for my budget (red flag), talking up high end units (red flag), talking down low end units (red flag). Look, we all know Mitsubishi and Daikin are the top of the line. However, the cost of DOUBLE of the price of lower end models isn't due to just superior quality and technology. Heat pumps and mini splits are not new technology. One isn't vastly superior to another. Yes, it may be better, but not double the price better. The cost are always due to the commissions and kickbacks for these installers. That's marketing and salesmanship, but please be more transparent next time. Finally, I asked for quotes and options so I can decide. The person walked away disappointed and I suspect they think they lost a sale because of the way I did not want the highest end models and stayed firm with my mini split request. I sensed the guy walked away disappointed. Yet I still expected a courtesy quote like the other installers. They never sent it. I was not surprised. In the end, I decided that a whole system upgrade to mini-splits (30% more efficient just from being ductless alone) with rebates made more sense instead of add ons to existing system. But these guys did help me cross them off the list and went with the installer who actually listened to my needs and gave the recommendation and options that I wanted. I do not recommend these guys. They will push for the highest cost system and will ghost you if you appear to be knowledgeable enough to call them out on it.

Dear Payless Water Heater and Plumbing Team,…read more I am writing to share my appreciation for the excellent service I received from your company yesterday. We were preparing to leave for vacation when our water heater burner failed for the second time in five years. After previously having a very unpleasant experience dealing with warranty work through a big-box retailer, I decided to call Payless. I am so glad I did. The entire experience was pleasant from the initial phone call all the way to the completion of the job. Because I have roommates and needed the issue resolved immediately for peace of mind, we decided to purchase a new unit through you. Our service technician, Eduardo, was fantastic. He was incredibly patient and knowledgeable, and we were very happy to have him handling our installation. I will happily refer Payless Water Heater and Plumbing to anyone in need of your services. Thank you again for the quick and professional help.
