This review is long overdue, but Kevin was incredibly friendly and attentive when we needed to get our furnace checked for why the gas valve was clicking. He took our calls/texts throughout the day/night, came by, fixed the issue by cleaning out the drain, collector cup, and pressure switch tubes, did so for a very reasonable price, and later came back to install an outlet for the system on roof in order to protect the system from getting rain water in it. He is amazing and we will call him again when our heating/air con systems have any issues. Thanks, Kevin! read more

It got hot late last week and so on Saturday (04/29/17) I turned on my AC after the long rainy season and guess what my AC didn't want to function. the fan wasn't working and I tried youtube to see if I can figure it out myself and that didn't go no where. At this time decided I need to go with the pro. started my Yelp reviews and calling my friends. on of my friends mentioned to me about Thumbtack. I went into Thumbtack and requested a quote for my AC repair. I got quote from a dozen contractors from $0 to $72 diagnostic cost. Kevin from East Bay Heating & Air was one among them. Kevin is the owner of the East Bay Heating & Air services and employees a team of 7. I was trying to get someone to come take a look at it on Sunday knowing that the coming days are going to be super hot. Kevin was the only person who decided to come over and take a look at it on Sunday. Kevin was very professional, polite, respectful, communicative, and took the time to explain what is going on with my unit. He also took the time to check my Nest device, AHU, and heater to make sure there is no issue in any of the device. Kevin quickly diagnosed that the motor fan is busted and took picture of the model of the motor. As he was looking at this he also diagnosed for other problems, he identified the disconnect switch was also busted and was not doing its job of cutting power to the AC unit (a major safety issue). Kevin took note of that and turned off the breaker at the main control panel for safety reasons. Once the issue in hand was identified and action plan was established, I started discussing with Kevin options to replace the entire heating & AC unit in my home. he took his time to explain to me all the brands out there, SEER ratings, single stage to double stage etc. Kevin was not rushing or in all of this didn't attempt to sell me anything. no pressure which was great. I requested a quote for replacing the entire system and Kevin quickly assembled a quote and emailed me on the same day. He also promptly replied to all my queries, remember this is all happening on a Sunday. later on that day I decided not to proceed with the whole replacement project even though Kevin's estimate was reasonable since I just did other improvement projects at my home and didn't want undertake this project at this time. When I got back to Kevin on this he was professional and agreed with me that this is the right thing to do. Kevin reaffirmed that he his going to procure the fan motor part and the disconnect switch. Once getting the parts will be at my home on Monday and take care of this work order. On Monday morning he promptly followed up with a call at 10:00am and confirmed that I wanted the motor to be replaced before he bough the parts. At 12pm he was at my home making the repair and as he did it he also cleaned my AC unit. Installed the new disconnect switch and included a compressor saver kit as my AC unit was from 90s. Kevin work was of good quality, prompt, and professional with his service. I will be recommending him to my friends for sure. read more

See all

We have used Kevin's services for a while now and he was so helpful in making our old HVAC system as efficient as possible. This year we finally decided to install a new system, and so we immediately called Kevin. He was quick to provide a quote and then scheduled us for installation almost immediately. We now have a brand new HVAC system and can feel the difference on these hot summer days :) Thanks Kevin for always going above and beyond! read more

I had used this company in the past however. this time. not so good. Jevin came to repair vents while on vacation. did not go well at all. I Ed scheduled upon my return and ge dud fix the issue however I found him to be extremely lazy and not wanting to do anything other than stated issue. since then I found out from other peopke being under my house that ALL of my vents need to be replaced!! very disappointed and will never use this company again. he didn't want to help or do anything other than job and even then seemed to complain about it. i feel bad but there's more to it and I cannot expand. read more

We live way out in El Sobrante, which tells you Kevin serves a broader area than noted :) What a great job he and his crew did! We needed them to work on a weekend and they obliged. Installed brand-new central heat (which I happen to have on now, thanks to chilly weather), and air (which we used that very week, thanks to a mini Spring heat wave). Everything works perfectly and I'm confident we'll get fast service if anything goes wrong down the road. Kevin needed to come back to install a special order intake cover and adjusted controls based on our time using them. He'll be back once we've used it for a while to fine tune as needed. It's great to have a highly-energy-efficient system, and even better that I don't have to dig thru a manual to figure things out. The install came with maintenance included for a time. We appreciate that pro-active approach. Kevin and his entire crew were respectful, pleasant to have around the house, and didn't leave a mess. All in all, I won't hesitate to recommend Kevin and his company to family and friends and you yelpers, of course! read more

Our 21 year old HVAC system needed to be replaced. Kevin gave us several options and explained the pros and cons of each. After choosing the best system for our house, Kevin had it installed in less than one day. He was very profession and on time. I would highly recommend East Bay Heating & Air. read more

Kevin is the man!! Our air stopped blowing cold and Kevin was at our house less than 10 minutes after I called. He was friendly, knowledgeable and fixed our problem without any BS or upselling. He should be everyone's first call. read more

Thank you Kevin! Our AC was not working well in just one room, Kevin was able to come out quickly; he was very upfront with everything, explained a couple of options and saved us from these 100+ temps! Highly recommend: knowledgeable, efficient, fair prices and super friendly! read more

East Bay Never even returned my call. AC went down during heat wave. Only Ambient responded asap.

We took advantage of their AC & furnace tune-up deal this past spring. Kevin was incredibly professional, knowledgable and friendly. He explained everything as he did it, his test findings and possible problems we may encounter with our older systems down the road in detail. He located a small part that wasn't performing properly on our furnace and fixed it on the spot for the low part fee. This service was well worth the money and if either unit ever needs to be repaired or replaced, we will be sure to call East Bay Heating & Air first. Kevin far exceeded our expectations and was a complete pleasure to do business with! read more

Wow! East Bay Heating deserves 10 stars! When the heat hit last week, our A/C quit cooling. Kevin happened to be close by when I called and said he could come immediately. He showed up 15 mins later, assessed the system and fixed us right up. His prices were reasonable, he didn't try to upsell us and he explained everything he was doing and why. WE HUGELY RECOMMEND EAST BAY HEATING AND AIR! read more

The only HVAC Company I will use. Honest, competent, reliable, prompt, dependable and a pleasure to work with. Kevin's response time is super fast. You get an honest evaluation and never any upselling. You only get what you need. I can't recommend him enough. If you need competent, honest and reliable service, East Bay Heating and Air is THE ONLY HVAC COMPANY TO CALL!!! Thank you Kevin. read more

Top notch service. Kevin saved us on two super hot days, first by fixing our central air and then our furnace. Both times we called him late night and he came by immediately the next day and worked around my work schedule. Today, on his second visit he was waiting outside in his truck for me to get home. Both times he easily diagnosed the problems and replaced the faulty parts. Could not ask for a better service person. Thank you for keeping us cool, Kevin! read more

From the first meeting, we were impressed with Kevin and his company. He listened to our needs and provided options, responding to our questions quickly and answered with obvious knowledge of his products. The install of the furnace and ac units was not easy due to location in attic, but Kevin and team took this in stride and got the job done! We would give them 10 stars if that was available! Highly recommend! read more

I can't say enough about how happy I am with Kevin and East Bay Heating & Air! Kevin has serviced our aging Central Heat/Air several times. In each case Kevin was very professional and not only repaired our equipment at a very reasonable price, he took time to educate me on what was wrong, how to detect the problem in the event something happens again (avoiding a service fee for something I can fix myself). Kevin's a busy guy so be patient on his availability especially during the peak month's of the year. The wait is well worth it. In my most recent case, the issue was very hard to diagnose as it was intermittent. Kevin's willingness to explain how my furnace works and the key failure points helped me figure out what part was failing. He always came by with a smile and squeezed me in his after hours schedule after a long day in the field. Everything is back in good shape for the cold and hot weather. Thanks for all your hard work Kev! read more

We just had both our heating and air units replaced by East Bay Heating and Air. Kevin and his crew do a great job! Honest, knowledgeable and efficient and clean in the installation. In this day and age where you're never quite sure if the company you hire is truly going to do a good job until the job is done , I would HIGHLY recommend this company! Lani Ennis Livermore, CA read more

What a great experience today! I'm a new homeowner and during our inspection it was brought to our attention that the AC was setup to drain underneath the house and not properly where it's supposed to be. So we decided to get that fixed before the summer heat. Kevin was such a nice guy and explained everything he did and showed me. He even had dog treats in his car for his dog and he gave some to my Mowgli. I hate having random people in my house and he was a pleasant surprise. I'm also 8 months pregnant and before he left he asked if there was anything I needed moved or lifted. The price was very good and the service to match. I highly recommend them! read more

Even though Kevin was swamped with service calls since it got hot this week, he nicely squeezed us in to check out what was going on with our AC. He got it back up and running again, and taught my husband a lot of useful tips and pointers. Really easy going guy, so it felt like he was one of our old friends. Highly recommend him, and will be calling him again for any service needs. read more

This guy is the best of this kind around here (San Leandro). We kept hearing a funny noise going off every time our furnace was on for more than a year, and had 4 different companies coming over (we did some renovation as well) and saying it was nothing to worry about. Finally, on a Friday night our furnace stopped working. After calling several companies, none of which got back to us..., Kevin got back to us on a Sunday night with a reasonable offer to come in and check the furnace out on the next Monday morning. In less than 10 minutes he found out the problem, and went out of his way to fix it on the same day. Kevin is professional, kind, knowledgeable, took time to explain us what he was doing and why the part needed to be changed, checked everything was functioning properly and made sure with me I was happy with the job. I definitively recommend him over many other companies out there that have more reviews but are not half as good as he is! If you call him you won't regret it! read more

Kevin was on time, professional, knowledgeable, and really easy to work with. We called him out to help us with our heating units, knowing this would be a big job to clean them since we have 3 separate units in the house, he went through each in a timely manner and got them running perfectly. He showed us different readings he was getting from before and after. He changed all the filters and even had the professionalism to cover his feet walking through our house. I highly recommend East Bay Heating and Air if it's a large project or small the service from Kevin was great! And the pricing was more then fair. This summer as we get ready to turn on the AC we will certainly be giving East Bay Heating and Air a call! read more

Best Heating/Air company in the Bay Area! Kevin (owner) was able to respond to my heater not working immediately. I had an idea of the problem-described over the phone. He had part in hand and ready to fix when he arrived. From time of initial call to replacement of control board and up and running was under 2 hours. (He had to drive an hour prior to get the part) All I can say is Thank you Kevin! Oh, almost forgot to mention- The Cost of repair was less than if I had found the part my self and installed it myself! Unheard of...Great job and I will be recommending your company to everyone I know if they need any heating or air conditioning work. read more

Kevin didn't just help get my mother's heat back, he went way above and beyond, and showed sincere concern for getting the job done well, quickly and at a reasonable cost. He traveled outside his region to her place, performed a solid diagnosis and repair, and charged her a very fair price, particularly compared to what another vendor wanted. Kevin was genuine and authentic, giving us great confidence in his recommendations. And as I DO live in Kevin's primary region, I am glad to now have a great "go-to" person for all my HVAC needs. I very highly recommend East Bay Heating & Air! read more

Kevin is a super nice guy, returns calls/emails promptly and is very accommodating with his schedule! My father-in-law got quotes from several different heating and air specialists to install a mini split system and on a hunch that Kevin was a "hard worker" he decided to go with him. He was right, Kevin works hard to get the job done and he makes sure that you as a customer are totally satisfied with his work. The job wasn't as easy as thought, they had to drill through lot's of brick and it took much longer than expected. After installing the system he came back several times (free of charge) to help us through some hiccups we were having. It was no fault of his but rather the unit itself had issues. Kevin helped us through the very annoying process of getting in touch with the manufacture and restarting the system. It was really frustrating but Kevin made it as painless as possible. I highly recommend East Bay Heating & Air! read more

5 stars plus. My 39 year old A/C suddenly stopped working after the roof of my adjacent shed was replaced. I suspected there was a connection. The first HVAC company determined that there was a "big leak", but could not find it. Kevin responded right away, did some detective work, found the leak and tried really hard to figure out whether the line could be repaired, consulting several others in the business. That kind of line is not used or even made any more. I decided to replace the entire HVAC unit. He gave me a fair price and brought me a portable unit in the meantime. Kevin and his crew were on time, very congenial, worked hard and cleaned up. When Kevin came back with a custom return air grill that was required, he even changed a flat tire for my grandson's girlfriend. I highly recommend his company. read more

I called a couple other AC businesses and they didn't even answer their phones. So I tried East Bay Heating and Air. Kevin not only answered his phone right away, but said he could be there in about an hour. He covered his shoes before he entered the house. He had the part in his vehicle and fixed my a/c in little time. He was completely professional and friendly. I would certainly call him again when I have another problem. read more

Great service. would reccomend to anyone, does an excellent and effiecient job. Had problems with AC not cooling some rooms properly and he was able to diagnose and solve the problem quickly. read more

Genuine, pleasant, professional. I was impressed by the turn around and quick fix for a range of issues with my a/c. A much better experience than I've had with other companies. read more

Kevin answered my call and came to fix my broken AC on the same day. 90 day warranty for the service, 5 year day for the part. I was charged $3XX for the capacitor and refrigerant. read more
