"SoCal Climate Control finished installing a new central A/C condensor. They did great work, showed up exactly on time, did the job with no complaints and cleaned up after themselves. I can't compliment them more. Don't hesitate to use this firm"

"I had All City Plumbing come out to help me fix my high water pressure. Technical named Alexis H came and was able to install a new 3/4 pressure regulator. Regulator he installed was double union and he explained that is to help make it be an easier exchange if it goes out again. Highly recommended All City Plumbing. Happy with work and value."

"Very in detail description of what needed to get done and the why behind it. Awesome job, professional, answered every question on why my central AC was strong on first floor but very weak in second floor. Air handler moved from bottom floor to upstairs attic, higher capacity central AC and all ducts changed. Beautiful work done in 3 days with detailed report of what was done. Fair price for the job done. Before and after."

"Very knowledgeable, professional, and great customer service! Penguin, serviced our central AC & Heat and they explained everything to us before performing the work. They also replaced our moldy insulation in our attic. They packed and transported the old moldy insulations, ensuring that the mold does not spread, and they left our house free of any mess. I'd recommend Penguin Heating and Air to anybody in need of AC/Heat service, repair, or installation."

"I am thoroughly impressed with the exceptional service I received from HD Mechanical! Their team recently installed mini splits in my home, and the entire experience was seamless and professional. From the initial consultation to the final installation, their expertise and attention to detail were evident. The installers were courteous, informative, efficient, and ensured a precise installation. The mini splits are now providing comfortable and quiet heating and cooling, exceeding my expectations. I highly recommend them for their accuracy, professionalism, and top-notch service. Five stars and a job well done!"

"We just had a new HVAC system installed in our home in Aliso Viejo. The contractor was Cool Air Technologies, Bill McIntosh, (714)863-0626. We were very impressed with the new unit put in the attic and back yard, the workmanship, the professionalism, the quick response time to get our appointment, the testing of the new units before they left, the lessons for us on how to use it, and the complete clean up and hauling every piece of the old unit away when they left. They even installed new air vents/registers in every room and air filters! Very impressive and highly recommended to everyone! [*** Link removed ***]"

"We used RighTime Home Services for our new thermostat installation and they were great from start to finish. We purchased a new thermostat but realized that we needed a C-wire for the thermostat to work. We had a C-Wire, however it did not have power because it was not connected, so we called RighTime. The Main office was so polite when we called and stated they could have someone out on the same day which was great. As soon as I finished speaking with the front office, Ian called and stated they would have the technician Trevor out to our house in 45 minutes. WOW fast service and we love it. Trevor was fantastic!!! We could not have asked for a better technician. He was so informative and explained everything and the price was fair for today's market. Trevor walk us through the installation and made sure that our air and heat worked before he left. It's hard to find great service and we are so pleased to have worked with RighTime Home Services and will be using them again in the near future."

"Glen Nichols is a terrific representative for this company. He was knowledgeable and helpful for the start of the process. Eighteen months after the installation, there was a problem with the blower motor, and I called Glen. He ensured that the problem was repaired in a timely manner and that the cost to do so was minimal. Can't say enough about this man."
