"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!

"I think it was free because it was a follow up visit. I think we were covered for 2 years. We had major service done and I don't remember what was done. Then they offer for 2 more years they can come out and make adjustments if they need to. Excellent all the day. I was impressed with their professionalism too. 

Over all I am very impressed with them and would certainly bring them back and hire them again."

"Two other AC companies didn't diagnose any repair but charged me service call for submitting an expensive quotes for replacement of the AC unit. AG Heating & Air Conditioning was the 1st HomeAdvisor guy to respond. He understood I wanted an AC diagnostic for what was wrong and whether or not it could be repaired! He called me from the job and said it could be repaired if parts could be located. His AC diagnostic & repair quote were very reasonable. I will use him again for other HVAC issues!"

"Just had the initial diagnostic visit. I was given terrible news (I'll probably end up getting a new furnace $$$), but the technician Ricky was wonderful. He was extremely polite, professional, and friendly. He did a very thorough inspection and then gave me a very thorough explanation of the problems. This included photos he took on the spot of some internal parts (oil leakage, heavy dust & dirt, stress markings).... at no point did I feel like I couldn't trust what he was telling or showing me. He answered every question I had. He went into the "attic" of my Eichler to check the ductwork (via a 14" hole in the closet ceiling, into space so shallow and tight I have no idea how the ductwork was ever even installed), and came out with photos to show me. The company was easy to work with when I had to change appointments, sent me email and text confirmations of everything, and gave me a day-before reminder of the appointment. I had an 8a- 11a window and received a text at 7:50a letting me know the technician was on his way, with a photo of him included. Perfect, perfect, perfect. The visit was $89 but reduced to $39 because I signed up for the MVP membership: $107 for a year which gets me all kinds of free services plus discounts on everything else. It even includes services on my water heater which they did not install! Additionally, they have some really good guarantees, MVP or not. Before leaving he called the office, explained all he'd found, and handed me the phone to set up an appointment with a "comfort specialist". Ariel (on the phone) was also extremely polite, professional, and friendly. These people are trained right! Or they're hiring very well. So, I will be meeting with someone to discuss repairs vs. replacement options. No repair work has been done yet (although Ricky did do a temporary fix that is allowing me to get some heat), so I can't fully review the company. But thus far I'm 100% pleased. This is probably the best experience I've ever had with any kind of repair technician. I've never used them before and have also never written a review before. The experience was just that good. I'll write another when I've finished with them just to give a full review, but so far perfect!"

"We were super-pleased with ABC. Our air conditioner unexpectedly stopped working last night. We called ABC just before 8pm and were able to schedule a service call for this morning. The tech (Bill Sweeney) came out this morning, diagnosed the issue and made the repair - all before 11am. Many thanks to ABC and Bill! We will definitely be repeat customers should we run into any issues in the future!"

FAQs for swamp cooler service or repair projects in San Jose, CA

A well-maintained swamp cooler can last between 10 and 15 years. Its longevity depends on usage frequency, water quality, and proper care. Regular maintenance, like winterization and protective measures, can preserve your system's efficiency and prevent premature breakdowns, ensuring reliable cooling performance over its lifespan. Hiring a professional to take care of any repairs over your swamp cooler’s lifespan will ensure it’s restored to proper functioning and can help it last longer.

You should consider replacing your swamp cooler if it shows signs of severe corrosion, inadequate maintenance, advanced age, restricted airflow, or ongoing leaks. When repair costs and performance inefficiencies make restoration impractical, replacement may be the best option. Evaluating these issues with a professional ensures you choose the most effective solution, preserving comfort and cost efficiency while avoiding further deterioration of the system.
