Excellent service, great response times and very friendly. I have been using North HVAC for several years now and wouldn't think about looking elsewhere. Doing the routine maintenance is a must on heating/AC systems and prices to do everything is very reasonable with North. I would recommend them to anyone needing service/repair. read more

Yes, this is a fantastic company and my experience with them was particularly exceptional. Chris, an owner, is who you will likely meet first, scoping the job and providing a fair quote and options. My mother is low-income so Lila spent an entire year qualifying her for a special program, didn't forget us, and alerted us when she was finally accepted. Ivan, another owner, ran the installation team with two very professional gents, Jairo and Rafael. Every time they came in and out of the house they put on shoe covers and were all very patient with questions. They were flexible with moving trucks and were legitimately friendly and kind every moment. Very professional. The base Mitsubishi unit they recommended is stunning. We are now sitting in a warm home that hasn't felt true heat in years and are forever grateful. I have worked with numerous HVAC companies over the years and this one has been my favorite. They are not overpriced nor are they going to be the lowest bid, but if theirs comes in for you at a reasonable price you'd be a fool to not choose them. read more

We just had our gas furnace replaced by NorthHVAC and it was a breeze. From the first meeting with Chris (and help from Lela setting up everything), to Ivan and his two capable helpers, we couldn't have asked for a more pleasant and informed company. We would gladly go back to them. At first we were interested in getting a heat pump, but after a lot of research we realized that the gas furnace idea worked the best in our house. Thank you North HVAC service! read more

Look no further! This company is fantastic! Not only did they do an excellent job, their final price was $9,000 less or 50% below the lowest bid that I got. They were actually $20,000 less than the first quote that I got. Chris was very quick to inspect and work up an estimate. Ivan and his crew spent 3 days removing the old heater and installing the new heat pump system. On top of all of this, I got a 4.5 ton unit where the other quotes were for a 3 ton unit. If 6 stars was possible they would get 6 stars! Photos to follow soon! read more

Look no further if you are planning to install heat pumps. Ivan and team are true pros. Value is better than any other vendor we spoke to - they installed top of the line Mitsubishi heat pumps and did an excellent job with ductwork for a lower price. Great customer service as well. Only thing I would do slightly different is more research and questions around how to manage Mitsubishi heat pumps - some (all?) models don't easily connect to an app, especially ducted systems read more

Awesome company that stepped up during a heat wave and was willing to come and fix my AC unit when others were not. Highly recommended.

I originally called a different company to take a look at our furnace, but they were busy with another project, so I asked for a recommendation and they sent me to North HVAC. Very glad they did. Scheduling with the office was a breeze. Paul arrived on time and quickly diagnosed and fixed the problem. The furnace is old and when I asked about possible upgrades, options, and prices, Paul was very knowledgeable. Will definitely use North for any HVAC services in the future. read more

Chris and his team were absolutely remarkable. I think everyone should consider them for your HVAC work. From our first meeting, he always took the time to listen to our needs. He sent his technician team to analyze our existing furnace and duct work, and then Chris proposed a system that met our needs. He even convinced me that I did not need an oversized Heat Pump system and could meet our house needs and save money by going with the 3.5 ton system vs the 4 ton. Their prices were less than some, but their customer service was far greater. They set expectations of a 4 day install and met it. It also included extra work to provide a quieter system. Lila also told me about the Marin County rebate, and took the time to help me navigate the paperwork. I have had 2 other friends use them and each of us find no need to look any further. Thanks Chris, Lila, and your team. read more

The top floor in our house has two bedrooms which get oppressively hot and cold depending upon the time of year. This year we decided to spend the money and fix the problem. We decided to get estimates from three different companies and then pick the one we liked best. Chris from North HVAC came over and gave us our first estimate. He was kind, thorough, and answered all of our questions directly. We asked for three estimates, one for central cooling, and another for a mini split heating and cooling system for either one room upstairs or both rooms. He did this without any hesitation and he returned the three estimates promptly. A second company came to give an estimate. The second company told us the job was much more complicated than North HVAC said it was and that they would need to lay concrete in the backyard and cut down one of our bushes in order to do the job. They quotes us around 4 thousand more than North HVAC. We called Chris back and expressed our concerns because of the estimate the second company gave us. Instead of shaking us off, Chris and his business partner Randy came out to our house again to give it another look. Both Chris and Randy told us that they would not need to lay cement to do the project and instead could install the minisplit units on the side of the house. They said their original estimate stood and that they disagreed with the second company. After mulling it over, we decided to go with North HVAC. They came over on a Thursday morning and nearly finished the job in one day. The electrician came the following day and finished the job. The mini split system cools quickly and runs super cold. It cools a small room in about 5 minutes or less, is about as quiet as a ceiling fan, and is easy to use. The outside unit also makes no noise, our neighbors even commented that they could not hear a peep. I highly recommend this company and would definitely do business with them again! Chris in particular provided excellent customer service. read more

I'm a researcher, so I put together two sources of info: Yelp and Consumer Reports to figure out the best company and the best AC unit to buy. North HVAC won our business for a few reasons. They have good business practices. They are responsive and courteous. They install top rated products, and they have done this work for so long that they have significant expertise. And they recommend a plan that will keep your system working well. I'm so glad I chose them. Now almost a year after installation they are keeping our home nice and cool. And bonus: I got a lot of bids, which for me is always a learning process because I learn from each biz that comes and does an assessment. North HVAC had a very reasonable bid. We could've installed different units and spend a lot more money but I am so glad I made the right choice to go with North HVAC. Highly recommend. read more

Our experience with North HVAC was very positive -- high quality equipment and complex installation at a very competitive price. Exceptional customer service from every member of their team -- prompt, friendly, knowledgeable. The owner, Chris, not only did an excellent job of analyzing our unique furnace installation requirements but also warned us of an expensive electrical panel upgrade that would have been required if we had gone with alternative plans we were considering -- something that was overlooked by the other two bidders. The installer, Ivan, is a co-owner of the business and his conscientious work reflects his commitment to customer satisfaction. We needed some minor tweaking after the installation and their repairman, Paul, was terrific -- his patience and expertise made all the difference. And Lila in the office is a delight! We highly recommend this company. read more

My wife and I were interested in getting central air installed in our new home. After reading some reviews and after getting a couple of quotes we decided to go with North HVAC Service. And I can say that we were not disappointed in their service and in the finished product. First off, Randy and his team came over as scheduled to do an initial site visit in order to figure out if/how an AC unit could be installed. Unlike another AC installer that we got a quote from, these guys inspected all the spaces (crawl spaces, duct work, and electrical) just to make sure it was even possible to install one. In other words, they were thorough. Additionally, our HOA required some documentation in order to approve the AC and these guys provided everything we needed and in a timely manner. Finally, after we got approved by the HOA to install the AC (after 1 month of waiting), I was able to schedule an installation date right away and these guys came on time and delivered impeccable service (at a cost that was modestly less than other guys.) I would ABSOLUTELY recommend these guys to anyone looking for any kind of HVAC work or installation. I plan on using them for my yearly maintenance service calls. read more

North HVAC was the only company we got a quote from that knew the town well enough to tell us that our plan would not pass permit inspection. This was huge because it would have been incredibly costly otherwise. The team was fast, knowledgeable, helpful, and they did a fantastic job upgrading our system. I would absolutely hire North HVAC again. read more

Our furnace, installed 10 years ago by North was having an issue and not running correctly. Chris was super responsive and was here within a couple hours of our call. He quickly found the couple issues that were impacting the furnace and got us back with heat within 30'. He and his colleague were incredibly polite, helpful and were fully CDC compliant. Awesome service, very reasonable cost for the visit and repair. Thank you North HVAC!! read more

Thank you so much! Heating was off and on during this cold weather while I had family guests for the holiday. It was blowing cold air and my house was freezing. Paul responded and fixed the igniter and the bigger problem, the exhaust motor was replaced. North HVAC beat all other companies in response time, ordered parts quickly, my house is warm again and the quality of the repair is excellent. I couldn't be more appreciative. I highly recommend North HVAC!!! read more

Chris is FANTASTIC!! North HVAC Services is reliable, friendly, easy to work with, and have fixed our issue within a matter of minutes!! The last two times, we have had issues with our AC, Chris has come to our house within 24 hours of us calling him. Each time he has fixed the problem, with ease. There is no one else in the area we would call with any heating or cooling issues. read more

When the AC unit stopped working during the recent heat wave, North HVAC was the first to respond to my call. They arrived very quickly given the backlog of AC repair calls in our area. Chris arrived on time, quickly replaced the capacitor and had the AC up and running in no time. Thank you North HVAC!! We definitely recommend this company! read more

North HVAC did a terrific job installing AC in my home so that we won't melt this summer! Chris was here promptly for the estimate and he and his team were here promptly for the install, which was done in 2 days without a hitch! I highly recommend them! read more

Our wall heater was no longer operating safely. Our insurance provider dispatched a company from Santa Rosa who gave a false and lazy 30 second diagnostic of the issue which then relieved our insurance from any coverage responsibility. Randy and his team saved us from the bogus claim the previous company made. Randy and his team showed up as scheduled, spent the time needed to properly clean our unit in order to diagnose the issue, provided the proper paperwork for us to send back to our insurance company and now we have a new functioning unit. I wouldn't hesitate to utilize and recommend this team! read more

To our surprise one day, we discovered our furnace was inoperable and couldn't be repaired. I started looking around at companies and found some really good reviews about North HVAC Service here on Yelp. Randy V immediately responded to my request for a quote, came to the condo to review the situation thoroughly, and then sent me a competitive quote the next day. He and his great team installed a brand new Day & Night furnace quickly and efficiently within days of our first contact. We highly recommend North HVAC Service to anyone looking for a great company to service their heater / AC needs! read more

Chris is a consummate professional. Responded quickly to my inquiry, provided great service and was very fairly priced. I highly recommend using them. And my heater is now working great! read more

Chris and Randy with North HVAC were professional, prompt, and provided excellent service for a competitive price. My home was built in the late 1800s and was in dire need of a new furnace and duct work. The guys at north provided a quick install that works great, looks good, and best of all, didn't break the bank. We'll definitely use them for any future HVAC needs. read more

Our furnace would not stop running. No heat, just the cold fan. Our service person, Randy, was on time, diagnosed the problems and gave us an estimate of the cost before he fixed the problems. He was respectful and clear about was he was going to do. We would hire North HVAC again. read more

Our home in Marin is over 115 years old, and gets very hot in the summer. After some research we were curious about adding A/C. After discussing with Randy and Chris we decided on a heat pump system, ducted, and installed in the attic. Quote came in significantly less than some competing outfits (and it's still a sizeable investment). Scheduling was easy, the fellas were timely and clearly worked hard. All the mess was cleaned up. We timed an electrician to come the last day of install and voila, boom, done. Turned on the system and we have cooling. Perfectly timed for the most recent heat wave. Happy to recommend North HVAC. read more

NEW OWNERSHIP! I've been using North HVAC for years. I was disappointed (but happy for Bill) to hear that the owner was retiring. BUT I must say that Randy, the new owner, is fantastic. He's friendly, fast and fair. And his work is A+! I will recommend him to all of my friends and to you anreading this here. read more

This review is from an event some time ago. We installed a new household A/C, we needed start-up servicing for it, I was eager, and Bill was willing to come out on short notice. Unfortunately... he was in too much of a hurry. First problem: he bent/kinked one of the A/C pipes and then had to repair it with a melange of copper connectors. Second problem: months later, all of the coolant (formerly known as "freon") finished leaking out and the A/C died. Because he hadn't tightened/tested his connections well enough, while he was in a hurry. Thus the A/C required servicing all over again. I got someone else for the second try. I would have preferred that he had not offered to come, rather than come without enough time to do a good job. read more

I gave 5 star because a simple phone call has saved me $100. It's not about the money. The man actually tried to help; unlike others. My heater wouldn't turn on after I cleaned the filter. I called the man, he solved my issue over the phone. I spoke to two other Marin HVAC services prior to the call. They were nice, but the the receptionists didn't know anything. Like "que? what? ok, I can take your message for our tech." Oh please. read more

Bill North the owner/operator of North HVAC is the real deal. Competitors charge a diagnostic fee and Bill was able to solve the problem for even less than other companies wanted just for the diagnostic. One company even quoted me $900 to solve the problem. Bill was professional, timely and affordable. We have an old-funky furnace and Bill was able to revive it (replaced a board and sensor) and save us from having to replace the unit. North HVAC is a wise choice. read more

These guys were great! Communicative upfront, fixed our A/C is under an hour, and enjoyable to be around. They also gave us great insights on how to better care for the unit. Highly recommend North HVAC Seevices and would absolutely call again. read more

Bill North was terrific. He was running a little late and called to let me know (much appreciated when taking time out of the work day). Upon arriving he diagnosed my problem straight away and told me the fix. He did not have to do anything other than give some advice. He volunteered to waive any sort of fee, which was more than fair and I greatly appreciated his honesty and professionalism. I highly recommend North HVAC and will use them any time I have a problem in the future! read more

Bill responded same day on our call about AC not working. He diagnosed the problem, had the replacement capacitor in his van, and our AC was working again within the hour. Very knowledgeable and happy to answer my questions about the system. His charges are very reasonable. He also responded to my call later in the day about this system, diagnosed the issue over the phone, and we were able to fix it quickly. A great professional and I highly recommend him if you need AC service and are in Southern Marin. read more

Really impressed with North HVAC Service. Our furnace went out. I contacted them, and they were able to slot me in the next day. Came out, diagnosed the problem, and did the repair in less than an hour. Could not ask for more professional and skilled service. read more

North HVAC did a great job! The estimate was clear and thorough and the price was very reasonable. The crew was excellent and very professional. The owner, Chris, was very responsive and knew his technology and business. I was interested in a heat pump to replace my aging gas furnace and AC unit. They did a great job evaluating the existing system and recommended a great new high efficiency heat pump. They also referred me to the Electrify Marin program so I could access a great rebate for the new unit! Really impressed with every step of the process. Will definitely recommend North HVAC to all my friends and neighbors. Thanks! read more

Dear Bill - Thank you for showing up same day, when the 5 other companies I called couldn't. Also appreciate that you stayed with my issue for a week, spending a lot of extra time working on my furnace and the "first of a kind" sort of issue it had. Lastly, respect your honesty and integrity in how you do business. .... for folks who need help with a furnace, Bill definitely gets my endorsement. read more

We could not be more pleased with the service that Chris and his crew provided in installing our new heat pump system! ! From the first meeting when he and Randy came to do the estimate - the day after I called - I knew that they would be our choice because they had a real "can-do" attitude, problem-solving the modifications that would needed to install the system. Providing good service seems to be in their DNA, and service is definitely what we needed for this project. We had so many questions about how the new system would function - it's a very different animal from the gas furnace we were used to. They were knowledgeable and patient in answering all of them, which reassured us about our decision to go electric. They and their crew, Ivan and Pedro, were wonderful to work with - hard-working, honest, friendly, efficient, on-time. We had a couple of concerns after installation (it has taken some getting used to the new system.) After contacting Chris, he and Randy came as soon as they could, investigated and addressed our concerns, leaving us with the directive to call again if we weren't satisfied (which we were). And, did I mention that their bid was substantially less than their 2 competitors? We will be recommending them to all our friends as we hope that more homeowners will be moving to electric appliances. read more

These guys were recommended by a neighbor, and we were very satisfied. They were communicative, on time, friendly, gave a reasonable quote compared to other companies, and wore masks and shoe coverings when they came inside. As with any house project, there were a few unexpected things that came up, and they worked those out with courtesy. My husband and I are both lawyers so we like to talk a lot and really understand all the issues, and they were really good at answering our questions and giving us all the information that we wanted. We really enjoyed working with these guys and would happily recommend them to others and have them back when we next need this kind of work. Thanks! read more

I left a message regarding my dead furnace. They called back within an hour and they were on-site 20 minutes later. Very professional and friendly and solved our problem quickly. Great text notification & billing system too. Highly recommended! read more

5 Star Experience for quick response, being on time, quality and fast service and very reasonable pricing! Bill is a class act, the kind we don't see enough these days. North HVAC Service is as good as it gets. Don't waste your time calling any other HVAC Service. Thank you, Bill! read more

Randy and Chris were great. We were having some air conditioning issues in one of the offices. They showed up when they said they would!!! That is a HUGE plus. Took care of our concerns quickly and kept me up to date with what they were doing to the air conditioning unit. I would use them again. Great job. read more

We had an urgent need to replace our furnace and so we sought out quotes from local companies. This is how we met Chris and Randy of North HVAC. They took into consideration our thoughts about product costs and solutions and came up with the best offer. We were so pleased with the end result that we arranged for the installation of a new AC unit this summer. read more
