"Prompt, courteous, hard working! Called for service and they came the same day and gave me an estimate for repair and an estimate for a new furnace! I decided on a new furnace as mine was 18 years old! They came the next morning and were done within 2 hours! The thing I liked most was they didnâ t pressure me at all but waited patiently for my decision!"

"I recently had a new HVAC system installed by Aireserv, and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. From the beginning, the team was professional, courteous, and informative. They arrived on time and were very thorough in explaining the detailed installation plan, the features of the new system, and how to operate it. The installation went smoothly, and the technicians cleaned the area while working. Once the system was installed, they ran tests to ensure everything was working perfectly and took the time to answer all of my questions. The new HVAC system has been a game-changer in terms of performance. It heats and cools my home more efficiently than my previous unit, and I've noticed a significant improvement in comfort and air quality. The system runs quietly and maintains an even temperature throughout my home. I also appreciate the energy savings I'm already seeing. My energy bills have been noticeably lower, which I can directly attribute to the new system's efficiency. Overall, I'm delighted with the service from Aireserv and the performance of the HVAC system. I highly recommend them to anyone in need of HVAC installation or upgrades. They provided excellent service from start to finish! A BIG THANK YOU TO ALTON THOMPSON AND HIS TEAM FROM AIRESERV."

"We actually called this company out on the previous Sunday.  We were getting small gas explosions whenever the furnace turned on.  We first called out PG&E, and their field-service person red-tagged the furnace and said that we would have to call out a professional service to deal with the repairs.
The company owner came out promptly on Sunday and inspected our furnace, and gave us an estimate of about $500 to repair it; he clearly and thoroughly described what the issues were and what needed to be replaced.  However, the furnace was over 40 years old, and he suggested that I consider replacing rather than dumping that much into interim repairs.  His comments seemed reasonable to me, so I agreed with him and asked for an estimate for the work, which was $2600 for everything involved.  Once I heard that, I was *very* pleased, because when we previously got a quote to replace it, the other company (no longer recall who) had wanted over $4000!!!
Anyway, his workers came out yesterday, arriving a few minutes before the 0800 appointment, got immediately to work, and had the entire job done in 5 hours.  They did immaculate work, didn't mind me watching over their shoulders as they worked, and I am quite pleased with all of their work.
We also love the new furnace!!!  We never realized before, how weak the old blower was; the house heats up *amazingly* fast now, and it has an electronic ignition, so we don't need to worry about pilot lights any more.  The reason I'm mentioning the equipment is to communicate that they clearly choose good-quality equipment to install.
Highly recommended!

"Guy who came gave me good advice and advised that he felt my issue was not needed for repair. He didn't try to sale me any service as he saw no need. I appreciate a plumber who isn't trying to get work out of people whom don't need it."

"Was very responsive throughout the process. Called us back shortly after sending request for quote via Home Advisor. Came within the two hour window offered the very next day and completed the job without delay. Technician repaired our Central AC during a historically hot stretch of weather and did not oversell us on having to upgrade or replace our unit which was refreshing."

"The company was fast to send a technician over to diagnose the issue and the rate was reasonable, however, they are trying to sell a new furnace too hard instead of trying to fix the old one, the second technician they sent who was supposed to estimate the new unit cost is pretty rude to my tenant, he basically ignored our questions about the repair cost vs. replacement cost, he said to my tenant 'hey I am not talking to you, you are not the owner of this place' simply because he thought the old unit can be fixed. Once he realized that we want to try the repair first before buying, he got up and left without saying a word. He has a very bad attitude and downright rude. I gave the company 4 stars for sending people over quickly but 1 star for their customer service. they need to train their technician some manners. update 2/4/18, after I posted this review, the company called me to get more information about this event and wanting to improve their service, I was very impressed how they trying to make things right and apologize for this unfortunate event. I understand that it could just be this one technician and the company seems very concerned and wanted to do the right thing. I changed my rating for this company because I think they do care about customer service and is making an effort to fix their mistakes."

"Highly recommend Alanis Air! I own a commercial property and when one of my tenants called about an ongoing issue, John came out and brought his team to quickly diagnose. Explained the pros and cons of repairing compared to replacing. Was genuine and gave me a price I could not pass up. Coordinated the project with the tenant and replaced the whole system smoothly with zero business interruptions. Tenants are more than satisfied with the new system and extended their lease. Excellent service, gentlemen. Thank you Alanis Air!"

FAQs for central a/c service or repair projects in Danville, CA

A condenser fan motor is a crucial part of your air conditioner that prevents the compressor from overheating. It pulls heat from your AC unit to cool the refrigerant moving through the condenser coils. This allows your system to blow cool air and keeps everything running smoothly.

The most common causes of AC fan motor failure include loss of lubricant in the system due to overheating and a rusted or leaking run capacitor. Poor lubrication can also cause failure in the belt drive, which may impact the AC fan motor. Weather and electrical components can also affect your AC. For example, a storm could send water into your motor windings and damage the internal components.

Air conditioner fan motors last about 12 years on average, though they can last longer if maintained well. This includes keeping them clean and cooled as needed with annual air conditioner checkups. Routine maintenance is essential to catch AC fan issues early. An HVAC inspection can cost between $70 and $500, while AC cleaning services may range from $100 to $400.

A broken AC fan motor may need replacement because this part usually can’t be repaired. Several things indicate it’s time to replace your AC fan motor, including buzzing noises, a constantly running fan, unusually high energy bills, or an aging system. If you notice these signs, call an HVAC pro for help before the faulty motor starts to strain other parts of the AC system.

There are clear warning signs of a bad AC fan motor, including unusual interruptions in the fan operation. The motor might be malfunctioning if you hear weird noises like grinding or rattling or if the fan continues to spin when the unit is off. These indicators compromise your AC’s cooling performance and increase your energy costs. Addressing these issues immediately by contacting a trusted HVAC professional prevents further damage and safeguards your HVAC's efficiency.

Replacing your AC fan motor takes a professional one to four hours. The technician will start by assessing your system and safely removing the damaged motor. If a new part needs to be ordered, it might take a few days. Once the part is available, your pro will install it properly and make sure your system is running smoothly.
