"It went great, and I highly recommend them for the quality of their work, I just think $829 dollars to install four valves was a bit extreme. I'm sure there are more reasonably priced plumbers."

"Angel was extremely professional, informative, and very nice as well. I got quotes from five different companies and the quote I received from Elite Heating & Air was by far the best. They came out and installed the system as scheduled in about half a day. I am very happy with my choice."

"Jim's Air Systems had the best value for my dollar. They supplied me with better equipment than they quoted for the same price. They completed the entire installation in about five hours. They protected my floors with tarps and were very careful to protect my walls as they moved equipment in and out. Josh, the son of the original Jim, was on the job working with the other two installers. They performed above my expectations. They left my home and yard as clean as if they had never been there. The new furnace is wonderful and is already saving me money on my P.G. & E. bill. I would recommend Jim's Air Systems unconditionally to anyone in need of a new furnace and AC system. This is a family business that has been supplying and installing systems since 1976. They take personal pride in doing an excellent job. They did not sell me anything that I did not need and provided me with a much cleaner and easier-to-service installation than my existing system. They are the best! "
