I really appreciate how Julian did the job to standard. My mini split had stopped blowing cool air…read moreand after either overpriced, flaky, or predatory A/C contractors I decided to try a search using AI (Google's Gemini) to search with a focus on owner/operator companies that get it right the first time. Gemini spit out several recommendations but I picked Julian because he was a veteran. Julian surely did the right thing to standard. Unlike other contractors he fully disassembled my evaporator and cleaned it and proceeded to braze my refrigerant line on my blower. The culprit: an improperly installed new blower that the previous contractor (contractor #1) hadn't assembled to standard. The previous A/C guy had done the easy hook up with fasteners rather than the longer and more tedious way of brazing the connection. Lo and behold the leak was coming from a loose fastener. After that Julian proceeded to inspect and clean the rest of my blowers and even fixed a condensate return line that another contractor (contractor #2) had claimed that I had to swap the whole blower out. And frankly the biggest thing I appreciated was that Julian worked on my system at all! Contractor #2 had refused to touch my whole system unless they themselves had installed it. Also compared to another contractor (contractor #3) Julian was not pushy in buying new things. He was there to fix it. Contractor #3 had claimed that I needed a whole new system and quoted me at $14,000. Icing on the cake - contractor #3 had told me that no one in Hawaii would work on systems unless they themselves had installed it. Thank God for finding Julian and finding some sanity amongst the A/C contractors. Cherry on the cake was his pricing was very reasonable compared to other contractors.

I'm glad they made it right, but I hope in the future they communicate fees clearly upfront to avoid confusion for other customers.

They partner with Hawaii Energy and gave me $150 off instant rebate for maintenance cleaning both my indoor and outdoor units, which made their rate very competitive compared to all the other company quotes. Cleaning day I was notified in advance when the technicians were on their way. The 2 technicians were professional and came on time with their company KK air conditioning truck and van. They were both very nice and patient with my 2 curious toddlers and dogs. The cleaning work was phenomenal, and both indoor and outdoor units were squeaky clean when they were done. 3.5% fee for credit card payment and received an email invoice receipt.

In mid May 2024, I had our central air conditioning serviced. I contacted this company after…read morereading the reviews. The appointment was made very promptly and Myra was very friendly. On the day of the appointment, we noticed the two technicians were consulting with someone on the phone. We found out later it was the owner of the company. Long story short, they were confused about the drain lines and had to spend additional time "unclogging " them ( which we were charged for). We paid over $500 for this "service"! We were grateful for what we thought at the time was their due diligence and thoroughness. I even wrote a very complimentary review on their website. Fast forward to August 31, 2024 when we discovered a leak originating from the upstairs ceiling. The origin of the leak was an overflow of the drain pan from the air conditioning unit because the drain was not working properly! I immediately called KK air conditioning to let them know and Keith the owner came out. He informed us that the installation of the condensate pan was improperly installed (this is not true because this is not a new installation and we have had it assessed by two other AC companies since then and they did not mention improper installation) which caused the leak and that the technicians cleaned out the secondary drain because the primary drain was difficult to access as it was underground?!? I asked him why weren't we told this at the time since we're not the air conditioning experts and he replied, "they're just technicians " . Keith felt he was doing us a BIG favor by not charging us a fee for coming out to check on this problem. The cost for the damages of the leak was over $53 thousand dollars and took 3 months to resolve. Our homeowners insurance was increased 278 percent for 5 years!

I think the air conditioning wasn't working for about a week, but yesterday was the last straw. Father Adondee looked at me and said, "You'd better call someone." "Yes, Father!" I looked on my Yelp app for air conditioning repair and Jimmys AC Repair & Maintenance was the first business that popped up. This company had good reviews, so I called and they answered the phone right away. I told them that we were suffering and needed help. The receptionist said they would be there the next day... He stated that there's a flat fee of $250 plus tax to diagnose the unit. Okay... Thank you!!! Jimmy called before he came over. He was very professional and efficient. He introduced us to Jeff, his coworker that he was training. Cool! We showed them the unit. They opened the panel, and diagnosed the problem quickly! He explained everything well and understood that we would have to go through the Finance Council to approve a new air-conditioning unit. Jimmy understood that it would take time and that if we wanted to get other quotes and compare, other companies could be cheaper and that he's not the cheapest... but you get what you pay for... Thank you so much for your promptness, knowledge, and help! We appreciate the cash discount and will keep in touch!
