Manuel is AMAZING. From the gecko, he was not only easy to work with, but polite, professional, and I was impressed just by our phone conversation. He asked me when we might have availability, suggesting that he could stop by at a convenient time for us if we are working. BLOWN AWAY. Luckily, my husband and I are both home from work so we told him to just stop on anytime the next morning. When he arrived (ON TIME .. IT ONLY GETS BETTER FOLKS) he called as he said he would to confirm he was at the right place (a few minutes before our appointment time). He came in, with shoe covers (an Asian woman's DREAM! - despite our messy home whilst packing he didn't need to but he still did) and was great with us, our 1 year old kid who was about to hug him (yes, he does hug everyone though), and gave us so much information. Manual KNOWS HIS STUFF. He was able to tell us exactly what was wrong, how to fix it, and you could tell right away he was honest, friendly, easy to talk to, and I totally trust him! Coming from an anal, type A person with work experience in client service, I am usually one tough cookie to impress. And folks, this is when I realized the true value of Yelp. LOVE YELP for introducing him to us! And, from the sounds of my husband googling service costs, what he fixed was at a much lower price than what's out there - so he's affordable too! I'm so so tremendously and horrifically sad and disappointed we are moving and cannot call on Manny for all our future A/C problems, but glad we are landlords for the new tenants, and will gladly give them his reference and all our neighbors as well! He is truly great and I am so glad we got the chance to meet a trustworthy and impressive A/C guy. They are hard to come by and Manny will tell you as it is. It's like when you find the auto mechanic you know you can trust.. that's Manny for you! read more

Wish I could give more stars, Juan and Hugo did an amazing job! My old AC unit was starting to die out and the ducts ran under the house. We decided to get a new unit and have it moved to the attic. I got a few estimates and decided to go with The AC Guy, Best decision ever! These guys were professional, kept me informed every step of the way, were considerate of us working from home while they worked. I would recommend them to anyone looking to get some air conditioning work done! read more

The Airconditioner repair man told me I need a brand new unit that would cost me 15,000. He showed me pictures of an old unit that was not mine. I got a second opinion and the repair man said it could be fix he charged me $500 and that included the maintenance it needed I'm glad I got a second opinion. read more

Juan is the best. He explains everything and very professional and knowledgeable. I've had many repair guys, he's the best. Highly recommend . read more

Excellent service. Frank and Robert are both top notch technicians. They were able to come out the next day to check my A/C and find what the real problem is. Robert was able to find me an electrician right away and my ac is working again Cynthia at the front office is also really good on follow up. I know they are swap due to the recent heat wave, but Cynthia called me back at 11 pm to help me schedule a next day appointment. I will definitely recommend them to all my friends and relatives. read more

We found Manny to be super friendly and honest. While serving our unit, he answered all of our questions patiently and explained each step of what he would be doing. Most importantly, he didn't try any up selling tactics, and we felt comfortable with him in our home. We will be using him for our ac needs in the future. read more

Manuel just finished my new heating & A/C install project in Dec of 2017. I interviewed and got bids for 4 firms, because i just bought a new house and this was going to be my biggest move-in expense/project. I'm glad I went with Manuel and The Air Conditioning Guy. It's only been on for a couple weeks, but i've been very pleased so far. Also, they were good to work with. The project ran a couple days longer than expected because I had a bunch of custom stuff going on in my house. But they stuck it out, worked long days, and didn't charge me extra. 5-stars, I would highly recommend these guys for your project. read more

Juan is very professional, knowledgeable and respectful. We have had so many workers and contractors coming in and out of our home and he is by far our favorite. He had a very big HVAC install on an old him on a hill with many stairs and he did the job perfectly! My attic which has no insulation was probably 150 degrees and he worked the whole time with a mask on and with such a great attitude. We would always recommend him and will definitely be working with him in the future for any needs read more

Working with Juan was great from start to finish. He responded quickly and was always on time. He also helped us choose the best AC system for our house without trying to upsell us at all. Plus he just seems like a genuinely nice guy. Highly recommend him! read more

Manuel and his assistant Matias are installing a new 3 ton A/C unit at my rental house. They were prompt and arrived earlier than the agreed upon time. They worked efficient to remove and replace the necessary component taking care to minimize the disruption. I would highly recommend their service for your HVAC needs. read more

The Air Conditioning Guy - Heating & Air Conditioning/HVAC Near Me

If you want to work with someone who is honest, thoughtful and passionate about his quality of work, then Manuel is the person for you. I bought my first house and was completely overwhelmed. I had never even lived in a house with central air, and not I found myself in a 1000 sqft house with two a/c units and a floor heating system. The inspector told me that system 1 was recalled in the 80s for catching fire, system 2 was improperly installed and basically held up by tin cans and system 3's pipes were not sealed right which could cause carbon monoxide to leak into the house. Simply said, I didn't want one of these things killing me. I called 5 a/c people and Manuel stood out! Everyone else only offered to do patch work. Their solution was to use bits and pieces of the old system but also leave all the unused items up in the attic. Their quick and easy solutions were the reason I inherited a pretty small house with three dangerous systems! Manuel, on the other hand, NEVER even went down that avenue. He explained what he'd do and the reason why it was the right solution for me. And honestly, the price difference was not that much. Now have a beautiful, quiet system and the attic is unrecognizable! I can see that he has done good work, and the stress I had is completely lifted! He was fun to talk, professional and I learned so much! I couldn't be happier. read more

Absolutely outstanding experience! Very helpful, knowledgeable in his field, puntual and did the work immediately. It was refreshing to actually get a technician who explained what needed to get done, gave me pictures of what was there prior and after the repair! Highly recommend!! read more

Manual came by my house to fix a furnace. It was very easy to schedule an appointment online so no hassle. He texts you prior to arrival and showed up on time. Very professional explaining the problem he found. Unfortunately my furnace is really old and the parts needed to be replaced aren't made anymore. He was able to recommend another company that dealt with this specialized problem. I would go with Manual for any future issues related with HVAC and heating. read more

I've had the same great experience the others reviewing this company had. Manny knows his work very well and clearly explained what the problem was and what needed to be fixed. Never had any greasy pressured upsell like from the other repair men I've dealt with. He was able to fix our issue relatively quickly. Will absolutely recommend him to my friends and family. Thank you!! read more

We did maintenance on our wall heater. Im glad I chose this company. Good thorough service. We had a cleaning on the main parts and inspection. The technician Hugo has good customer service. I would ask for their help again. It was also easy to get the appointment online. read more

Never have I wanted to write a review more! My husband and I love people who both love what they do, and are good at their craft. Manny is amazing. We have a very old home (1947) and our HVAC system has been limping along for five years or more. We knew it was going to have to be completely replaced sooner rather than later. A couple of months ago, our HVAC system gave a loud "clunk" and it was done... (Gone to AC heaven) Manny to the rescue! ...His quote was reasonable compared to others. ...He showed up every day when he said he would. (In fact, he texted us before he arrived every day!) ...He was so tidy. Drop cloths everywhere. ....He was respectful of us and our pets ...He treated us and our little home like we were equal to the million dollar Beverly Hills homes he's worked in ...he makes sure "the job's done right" ... he did not cut corners ...He educated us on the new system he installed. ...He went 'above and beyond' what he said he would do. (Made our attic far more service-friendly by adding wood for flooring, added a light added in the attic, installed extra wide ducting so unit would be quieter..(In fact, I can't hear the system at all!) The thought of having an entire HVAC system replaced was so anxiety-producing to my husband and me, but Manny made it a breeze! (My apologies for the AC pun.) Repair, replacement or any HVAC job? Call Manny, The Air Conditioning Guy. You won't be sorry. Like HGTV's "Holmes on Homes", "He gets the job done right, the first time"! read more

Robert was professional with a phone call before coming, booties for his shoes and a standard cost sheet. He went right to work and told me what the problem was. He had the parts we needed and was done sooner than I thought it would be. I will also be using "The Air Conditioning Guy" for maintenance, at least for a year because I was so pleased with his work, straight-forwardness and reasonable prices. read more

I used Around the Clock before and they cost me $350 for 5 lbs of freon and switching the braker on. Manny from The Air Conditioning Guy on the other hand, only charged $165 for changing my capacitor, 1 lb of freon, even new gaskets. He was very friendly, funny, and professional. He even took the time to give me addresses of where to find the cheapest AC filters for my uncommonly small filter. I highly recommend him. read more

I could not be happier to have Manuel install the 2-stage A/C and heater unit in my house recently. The unit is super quiet and maintains a cool, even temperature throughout the day. As for noise level, I actually cannot hear it at all. Yes, there is a slight bit of wind noise (if you can even call that noise), but it is completely undetectable after a few seconds of being in the room, Visitors have all commented on the quality of the work and how silent the A/C is compared to theirs. I want to bring attention to this, because the quality of the installation has a lot to do with the noise level. Manuel does it the right way! I really like Manuel as a business owner and as a person. He is honest, respectful, on time and treats people the way he wants to be treated. He does outstanding work and is very competitive on pricing. I am posting some photos of the installation so you can see what excellent work looks like. There are a lot steps involved in an A/C installation, so you definitely want someone who cares about quality and has high standards. read more

See all

Trust the reviews, Manuel is top notch. I called around 9am and received a call back a few hours later to schedule an appointment. I informed Manuel that I was free that day if he could make it (figured I would take a long shot since I didn't want to go without AC another scorching night), to my fortune he had a small opening in his day to see me and was at my place within 30 minutes. Manuel was very thorough as to what needed to be fixed, he gave me several options for what I could do. Not once did I ever feel he was trying to "up-sale" me on service I did NOT need. He was honest straight forward and to the point. read more

Repaired a 1960 wall furnace! Well, we weren't sure about what to do when our wall furnace finally conked out. I called several places and searched the internet for advice and basically found out that replacing this unit would be costly and repairing it a more dubious endeavor. After spending many hours trying to get more educated about these furnaces, I knew I wanted someone to come out and give me a knowledgeable assessment about it. Really appreciated Cold S.'s review. Was looking for the same thing. People who take pride in their work and will be honest with you. Manny, was prompt and timely. After discussing the potential issues that could come up with venting a new furnace, he was willing to further explore possibly fixing the unit. Parts needed to be replaced and with the original manufacturer of the furnace no longer existing, we were all dubious. Manny was game to find parts that would work. About an hour or so later he called to say that he had in fact found some. Later that afternoon, he returned and the furnace is working great! Manny said the old cylinders were in good shape and everything was to code. We could hardly believe it and we saved a bundle. We enjoy the idea that a bunch of metal didn't have to go into the waste stream. Manny is straightforward and thorough. Thank you Manny read more

The 5-star rating is for The Air Conditioning Guy's excellent customer service. The entire team is professional, courteous and friendly. A half hour before our scheduled appointment, Robert called to say he'd already arrived in our area, if we could see him early. He spent about an hour checking out the house and discussing with my husband what we wanted to have done. Although they ultimately decided not to take on our special-needs HVAC problem, they did refer us to the excellent Marcel Llorens. He took the job and brought us cold air, saving us from from being cooked to death in our own home. It wouldn't have happened without the good people at The Air Conditioning Guy, who cheerfully took all our calls and ended up giving us great free advice. read more

Fabulous service! My tenants called me and said the air conditioner stopped blowing cold air during the string of HOT days we've been having. Being a first time landlord I wanted to make sure I took care of my tenants. I called and left a message in the morning and got a call back from Cinthia telling me that there was a canceling and the repair guy can be there in 45 minutes. Awesome! But too bad my tenant was no where to be found and I couldn't get access to the roof where the unit was. I called Cinthia back and she was able to move my appointment to 3pm. First point to make. I got an actual appointment time and not a range. Awesome! I called to confirm my new appointment time since my tenant got home. Ok, I left a few frantic voicemails, and Cinthia called me back and we laughed about my panic calls. The service guy (Mike) was still in the neighborhood and got to the condo early. The inspection and repairs were done within 45 minutes! Mike checked more than he needed to, which is great and changed the filter for me on top of making the needed repairs. He even inspected the rest of the unit and told me what repairs I might expect in the future and advised me of what maintenance I should be doing to keep it running well. Mike sent the invoice over to Cinthia, we got on the phone, paid the invoice over the phone and the invoice is in my inbox. Tenants happy. Landord happy. Everything is great thanks for Cinthia and Mike. Thank you so much!! read more

We love The Air Conditioning Guy! We recently used Manny to install a ductless mini split system for AC and heat in our home, but had also previously used him for wall heater repairs during the winter. We knew we could trust him with this latest ductless mini split job and he went above and beyond! His work is fantastic and not only does all the duct work and piping look fantastic, but the system runs like a dream. Manny is trustworthy, hard working, thoughtful, and just an all around sweet guy who is fun to have around. He's the best and we feel very lucky to have worked with him. *** Also coronavirus note -- Manny wore a mask the entire time he was working at our house, both inside and outside the house. I am pregnant, so we greatly appreciated him doing this and we never had to worry about whether him or his colleague were wearing one, because they always were. He's the best! read more

A good air conditioning repair guy is a very hard thing to come by. Manny Valdovinos of "The Air Conditioning Guy" rocked our socks off! He was able to come an hour after I first called him. He was extremely professional but also funny and pleasant. He worked hard to fix our AC and his price was incredibly reasonable. I will use him again and again for our AC needs, and will recommend him to EVERYONE I know! If your AC is broken, LOOK NO FURTHER! Call this dude!! read more

This is a much delayed review. Manuel and his company is the best. I needed to install 2 sets of ductless heating & cooling systems which involves 3 zones of cooling & heating. Called at least 8 different companies and got different prices. Manuel offered the most affordable price and the best value for the price when it comes to the machine & parts he used. He came with a clearly outlined contract indicating the cost and work timeline. Every time he came to work, he would text me with his estimated time of arrival. Throughout the process, he kept me updated regarding where he was in the process and what else needs to be done. He is very organized and his work is clean and beautiful. Machines turned out to work great and all the duct/lines outside was cleanly organized. I have worked with many different contractors and handymen. Among them Manuel stood out so much with his great work ethics and commitment to the quality of work. Will definitely use him again for future work!!!! read more

So i wanted to replace the rotting wooden frame where the condenser was mounted onto on the roof, and reached out to several local AC businesses. One provided me a quote approx a year ago, and when I finally reached out to them they were no longer interested. Another came by, and was only focused on selling me a completely new system and even mentioned that the frame would b replaced in the process. I finally got an appointment with The AC Guy and they sent Miguel over. He provided me a quote which was within budget, and rejected my inquiry regarding a new system, informing me that I should just use it till it craps out because its quite expensive for complete system. In any case he arrived on time, and worked patiently and carefully on my roof, to remove the rotting wooden frame, and install an aluminum frame. Once completed he showed me the install, threw all of the old wood in the van, and cleaned the area up good. . I was more than impressed with his sincerity, quality of work, and knowledge. Will definitely reach out to these guys when I'm ready for a new system. Thx again Miguel and hope all is well! read more

I hired the AC Guy Manny to replace my AC in 2017. He recommended a 5 ton Goodman compressor and new evaporator. He replaced the evaporator in a tight hot attic and worked with a great attitude and character. The Goodman has been working great. It's nice and cool and quiet. I had him do a maintenance check last year. It was a long wait to get an appointment because he's so busy, but worth it. Pleasure to deal with him. read more

Lemme put it this way, I waited nearly three weeks in 50 degree weather to have this guy install my new furnace. He was totally worth the wait! He gave us a very fair price, clean install, no stupid up-selling, and he even threw in a new digital thermostat! I will hire him to install my AC unit when it craps out too. Very trustworthy, very cool cat! I'm almost afraid to give him yet another good review because he'll become too busy for me. Oh well. Thanks Manny! read more

It was the second time that I had to call Manny, and just as the first time, he showed up on time and did a FANTASTIC job. I don't even bother to call anyone else. Manny is on time, fast, friendly, knowledgable, honest, clean and very reasonably priced. I highly recommend Manny to anyone, including my best friends. read more

This was a great service. He came on time and found the problem in no time. My ac was fixed for $90! Another estimate from another company was to replace the compressor!! This guy is very honest and explains everything that he is doing. Thanks read more

The stars don't lie, Manuel is the best! We were having trouble with the heat/air system and had trouble finding a reliable repairman in our area. There's weren't even a lot to choose from on yelp. Turns out that Manuel was all the choice we needed. While he can be a little hard to get ahold of and may have to book you a few weeks ahead (he's a popular guy and summer's here), he is so worth it. It turned out that the last person to replace the filter on our system hadn't done it properly and the entire unit was stuffed dust, debris and pet hair. Another repairman had given us an estimate of $360 to clear it out and adjust it; Manuel charged us $250. He was there for nearly 4 hours. We're very happy with our results. Yay! read more

We were in need of a heater in order to pass the bank inspection for our home refinance. Manuel was very professional and knowledgeable. He gave us an estimate in full detail, and from his detailed correspondence we knew he was the right person for the job. He worked hard, accommodated our requests, and solved problems on the spot. I recommend him to anyone looking for a heater. He installed a Cozy Wall Furnace type heater required by the city code. Thank you Manny! read more

great service and very honest...even fair-priced! treated us like family.

Hi my name is Tim, I have worked construction my whole life so I can tell when someone knows their business and when they pretend. Manny knows exactly what he is talking about and does everything he says he will. My wife and I had him over to fix a blown out thermostat on our unit which Manny handled easily but what I liked is he took the time to inspect the whole system and made recommendations to fix things that the previous installation missed. We have set up a yearly inspection program with him and I would highly recommend Manny for all of your ac/heat issues. Top notch! read more

Honest, reliable and competent. Also very personable. What else could you want? Had to wait a week for an appointment, but worth a month's wait. Repaired an ancient gravity heater when other repair person wanted to hang expensive parts on it (which, ironically, would not have fixed the problem). read more

Manuel, thanks for repairing our A/C and for going the extra mile to make sure everything is running smooth. I recommend you to anyone that needs some repairs to their A/C unit. You are honest and professional. read more

Hired Manny to do maintenance on our AC system. His pricing is vey reasonable. I had no regrets as Manny was very professional, knowledgeable and took the time to explain everything in details. He was not pushy but simply wanted to educate his customers so they have better knowledge of their AC system. Very satisfied. read more

My daughter asked me thus morning, mom does something smell funky to you? I started going from room to room and it smelled like burnt plastic. After I realized it was the A/C. I went on line and asked the question. What does it mean when your A/C smells like burnt plastic. Got the info. and turned it off right away! I then spoke with my husband and he came home real quick in between jobs and checked things out in the attic. I was worried about a fire..... Then I started searching on yelp and came across The Air Conditioning Guy reviews. So, I called.... I spoke with Frank and asked how much it would cost for them to come out. I then described what was happening and asked if he could give me a rough estimate and he did. Then I asked when was the soonest he could come by. He asked where I was located and he said he could be there in a half hour, he was coming from Burbank.(This all took place around 2:20pm) He was at my home in an half hour. ") Came in introduced himself went into the attic and his assistant came back down and said it was the capacitor. Which he mentioned on the phone. Told me how much it would be and fixed it in no time at all. He also said, if I didn't turn it off. I could have burned out the motor! Yikes! THANK YOU Frank for the fast response and not charging us an arm and a leg. We are all happy to be cool again! I would like to say thank you to all of your clients reviews. Without them I would have never found..... The Air Conditioning Guy. Stay Cool! ") read more

Service was fine but price was not as advertised. I'm fine with the $99 service call price that is applied to any work. Capacitor was out and it is a 15 minute job. $221? They will not split parts and labor. The part online is $25. Almost $200 for labor? read more
