"Great job. Anthony did a complete review of the house and the current venting and recommended the proper size for the AC. The installers and electricians came 3 days later, did additional wiring and piping and installed the entire system in 5 hours."

Hydro jet uses water at 4,000psi to clean the inside of the mainline drain which connects all the home's drains to the city's sewer system.
Using a snake we can go through the cleanouts on the side of the house.
With the cleanouts snaked, and the blockage located, we can send the hydro jet through the sewer vent and flush out the blocked drain.

"The team showed up on time, was courteous, worked efficiently, and informed me every step of the way during the install of my new quiet cool fan. Great customer service and really enjoyed the crew. Would recommend their service to anyone looking for a whole house fan installation. Thank you, Hector, Frankie, and Juan - much appreciated."

"Yes. Billy said everyone was great on install date. Omar was helpful and communicated effectively. Team worked well together and were efficient. Team was respectful of our property and cleaned up after work done. All of the team members being available was excellent to get install in one day. We hopefully will enjoy the benefits of the insulation and all went as anticipated with install. Very glad we had it done. Leo was excellent with pre install quote and arranging for install. We got a few quotes . We paid highest quote to have the work done quickly which met our needs. Thank you for the excellent service"

"Michael, James, Keith were all GREAT! I received about 5 estimates for replacing an original 32 year old split level Rheem system. Oasis was neither the least expensive but certainly not the most expensive. They have only been in business a short while but I took a chance with them and they delivered! Prompt, flexible pricing, clean work, friendly. A complete system including duct work and I hardly even knew they were here working. I whole heartedly recommend these guys! (And I do not write reviews!)"

"I can’t say enough good things about Five Star! From the initial consultation through the entire project, they provided outstanding service on my home’s complex layout. They were incredibly honest and down-to-earth—patiently walking me through options and talking me out of upgrades that would’ve cost more but added little value. That straightforward advice is rare and greatly appreciated. They installed a mini-split with two air handlers plus two separate furnaces and AC units, all on budget and on schedule. The systems have performed excellently. They’ve been extremely responsive on issues (low Freon once, and my dirty filter another time), fixing everything quickly with no hassle. Out of all the subcontractors I’ve worked with, this team is the absolute best"

"Arturo with Veterans HVAC completed the electrical work for my pump. His solution to complete the installation was elegant and simple compared to the bids I received from others. Veterans was not the least expensive but it was well worth the extra cost to get the job done correctly. I would not hesitate to use them for other projects."
