"Cristian was very professional and verifed problem. I called Next Level because the quote given by Paul Mitchell's Aircare did not seem competitive. I was correct. Paul Mitchell stated I needed 4 lbs of refriegerant at $289/lb totaling $1156. Cristain at Next Level diagnosed the same problem, but stated I only needed 3 lbs of refrigerant at $125 toling $375., a $781 savings. I agreed to purchase annual maintenace form Next Level which provided an additional $50 savings on my bill and Next Level's Annual maintenenace for 2 A/C units was onlky $250 versus $260 with Paul Mitchell."

"The installers showed up promptly within the window they gave us, they replaced the upstairs ducting and installed dampers to balance the air (one room is a lot warmer because of the sun). We had multiple quotations and they were significantly better than the rest. This did solve our issue completely!"

"From beginning to end, The Right Choice Heating and Air Conditioning Co. provided superior quality customer service and onsite work. From scheduling, to multiple follow-ups and reminders, re-confirming exact appointment time, and the post-inspection follow-up, they have truly impressed us. More importantly, Michael Taib, the technician who performed the work at our home, was indeed a true gentleman and professional. He was extremely knowledgeable and patient. I am familiar with the type of HVAC related work requirements, the lingo, and technician data. I quizzed him several times and he constantly responded with 100% honest and factual answers. He tirelessly worked on both of our HVAC units and performed the necessary services and repair. He was polite, courteous and clean. His most impressive talent was ensuring my wife's absolute confidence in his work after she grilled him with so many questions! We will continue to refer True Choice to all our friend and family! Call them; you will not be disappointed."

"We had our hot water heater replaced and I'm impressed! They didn't charge me extra for calling after 5pm. I was scared of being charged for an emergency call. They texted info of the technician coming to my house. As a woman, I appreciate knowing WHO is coming to my home. I don't want just anybody coming with my child in the house. This is a great family company. They arrived as promised and promptly stopped the old water heater from flooding my garage. My new water heater works great! They fixed my pressure regulator and I can enjoy my house again!"
