Two years ago, my 21 year old Hydronic HVAC system started giving me cooling problems. The heat worked fine, but the cool air was starting to not be so cool. A friend of mine who lives in the same complex recommended A COOL AIR INC. upon which I had reached out. I was hoping to just get it serviced, but because of the age and the freon it used, I was informed that they no longer carry that freon due to it was no longer produced and that I might find a company that has it. Found one that was able to give me 2 more years and very much appreciated the honesty the A COOL AIR gave. November 2025 it was time to change it out. Made the appointment, received the estimate after inspection, was informed of the rebates both for SMUD as well as Federal Tax Credits and gave the go ahead. They had it installed in 2 days' time, and let me tell you, this new system? Makes me come to terms that I never really had a real one to begin with!!! I was given options to which one would work best for my unit (I live in a condo) and wasn't swayed one way or the other. Chose one, and I am SO THANKFUL I did! These few days in the 90's so far have given comfortable and cool air throughout my home and including my bedroom which never cooled off or heated up to the rest of the house. I held off on giving a review because I wanted to make sure the cooling worked and it does!!!! Compared to a "big box" store that quoted me the price of a new car, I'm beyond happy with A COOL AIR INC. and can easily recommend them for your heating and air needs! THANK YOU A COOL AIR INC.! read more

After a lot of research and conflicting info from other companies, A Cool Air did an evaluation and repair instead of replacing HVAC as other companies had recommended. They just fixed the problem after careful examination and testing. Pricing seemed very reasonable and I was completely impressed with this company - so much so that we are also going to have them assess our ducting in the attic. I trust them to tell us the best solution for the situation. read more

I hired A Cool Air to do an HVAC on a home I was looking to purchase. Scheduling was a breeze and pricing was fair. There was an issue when they arrived with the A/C having been left on which meant they were not able to do the inspection that day and we rescheduled for no additional cost which I thought was very reasonable since it was not my fault. That is an example of good customer service you rarely find these days. We purchased the home and since then had them come back to add freon and test for a leak. Again, communication is always straightforward and clear as is their pricing. The technician who came to do the initial inspection, Modest, was also the person who returned for the follow up work. He was professional, thorough, and took his time to explain everything to us. There was also no upselling. I cannot recommend them highly enough! read more

My 10 year old HVAC stopped cooling a couple of days ago, so I called A Cool Air. I've used them several times in the past and know they are honest and reasonably priced. The technician showed up on time (to the minute), and within 15 minutes diagnosed the issue, which was a burned out contactor. He replaced it, checked my system for any other issues, (including the blower which was located in my attic upstairs), and was completed in less than 40 minutes. I highly recommend this company. read more

A Cool Air was very easy to work with. I found them on yelp and they gave me a quote over the phone to install a defrost board I had ordered and scheduled service the next day. Their quote was much better than the company that had installed our heat pump and had left us without heat for 3 weeks in December saying they couldn't get the part that I got overnight. A Cool Air came when they said they would, did the job and charged us the exact amount quoted. Win-win. read more

A Cool Air guys were tremendous help to us. Previously they serviced our system, and it worked very well. Few years later, just about now, the old 20+ year old unit finally had its last breath. The internal coil leaked, and they were able to pinpoint to the exact problem. They gave us a couple options repairing, which was costly, or replacing the whole system. After comparing quotes, we decided to have them replace the whole HVAC system. I'm so grateful that there are still companies around here that you could trust them. they told us clearly what they will do, and then did it exactly what they promised to do. A+! Thanks again! read more

Hired A Cool Air because I had some very simple work do get done and they: 1. Provided a quote over email when pretty much everyone else would not unless "they came out to inspect the equipment first" for a trip fee. Then if I did not like the price with those other companies after the visit, you still had to pay the trip fee. 2. A Cool Air was 50-60% cheaper than the 2 other quotes I was actually able to get over email. Again, I had some very basic work that had to be done. I probably could have done it myself but if the price is right, I'm willing to have a professional do it. Hopefully they won't raise their prices over what I said about being cheaper. : ) read more

I've used A Cool Air several times over the last 12 years or so. Initially when I moved into my home I was having sporadic issues with my hvac and I had another company come out who told me the only option was to replace my system. I got a second estimate from A Cool Air and they agreed that the system was aging and would need to be replaced eventually, but they were able to fix it for under $200 and I got roughly another 4 years out of it before I decided to replace it. It was still working when I did. Since then, I've had them out every other year or so to inspect my system and they have never tried to upsell me anything. I recently purchased a rental and was having an issue with the older HVAC there. They came out, diagnosed the problem, and again advised it would need to be replaced at some point, but were able to get it fixed for a reasonable amount. I recommend A Cool Air for HVAC services. They are polite, show up on time and give you options. I also really like that they include most pricing on their website. read more

Excellent communication, on time and repaired the timer switch in my whole-house fan without any added drama or trying to sell me services I didn't need. I was very impressed with the professionalism and quality of their work and I will definitely hire A Cool Air to do my HVAC maintenance from now on. read more

I had just come home from surgery only to find my AC wasn't working. Called after hours, received a call back at 8 a.m. the next morning, and they scheduled the repair the same day. They installed my units 16 years ago, so I knew I could trust their work. So grateful to have this done the same day, work was outstanding, as usual. Thank you ! read more

They gave me an arrival window of 12 - 2pm. They showed up at 4:30. Said they would follow up the next monday with an estimate. It's Wednesday and I never heard back. read more

I hired this company 12 years ago to replace the AC in my rental property. Tenant reported last week AC was leaking so i called them I knew it wouldn't be under any warranty. They came out and only cleaned the P trap and left quickly. Tenant said they were only there about 10 minutes and did not run diagnostics and fully inspect the system like they should have based on the $150.00 bill I got. Tenant went to turn it on two days later and it wouldn't turn on. Took several days and a couple messages to get a response and appointment. In the meantime tenant bought a new thermostat and replaced it but it still didnt work. When A Cool air came out again they said the thermostat was wired wrong which caused the fuse to blow and thats why it wouldn't turn on. They refused to believe or listen to the tenant that the AC wasn't working before that and they didnt fix it right in the first visit. Its quite possible the fuse was already blown or minimally there was another issue they failed to repair since they didnt bother to check the whole system on the first visit which resulted in having to return. The young fellow who seemed new to the business replaced the fuse and wired the thermostat correctly and it now works. I got a bill for $250. It listed the fuse replacement at $150. A 15amp AC fuse cost $4.00 at Home Depot and they charged a diagnostic fee of $70 when that should have been waived since it wasn't fixed right the first time nor properly inspected on the first visit. When I complained about the price gouging they did lower the total bill by $30.00 which I appreciate but it still left a bad impression how they handled this especially for a returning customer that spent thousands of dollars with them to install the system. read more

Our business had A Cool Air replace our HVAC in January and we cannot say enough positive things about their service. From the time of receiving their bid, which was extensive and professional, to the completion of the installation, we could not be happier. The installation of the large unit took only one day and was handled with no interference with our daily operations. They worked around our schedule and during that time, the installer and helpers were very courteous and professional. We would recommend this to anyone in need of their services. Sue read more

THE ABSOLUTE BEST folks to work with! We received quotes from approximately 30 different companies for an HVAC and duct replacement. Vasiliy called us the first time, provided a temporary quote based off photos we had of the past unit, checked the unit in person and provided detailed recommendations for repairs vs replacement. He gave us a lot of options with detailed explanation of each of them with pros and cons. He addressed a very difficult tenant for us, made sure we received all the permits and ensured everything was taken care of. He went above and beyond explaining to us how we could fix some minor things in our home by ourselves. We highly recommend this team for their exceptional professionalism, honesty, price value, and keeping us updated every step of the process in advance. I am so grateful and thankful to you and your team Vasiliy! I agree with some other reviews here that this was one of the two companies (out of 30) who provided us with draft quotes without inspections in person (which was a big factor cuz we did not want to have 30 different teams walk into our home without knowing a basic price point first) - The quote we received was pretty accurate and not much change. A+++++++++++ ! read more

It was a great experience. They were the lowest price and our new heat pump is working great.

They were able to get my system fixed when the other big brands in town didn't. I had a big name company clean our primary drain twice and didnt fix the problem. I also paid $550 for the big name company to clean our coil and they didn't even clean the coil entirely and it caused more problems than before. A Cool Air came by and diagnosed the problem quickly. A Cool Air cleaned the coil and unclogged the primary drain, fixing the system for about half of what the big name company charged. I definitely recommend A Cool Air since they came to fix a problem right the first time and didn't try to sell me a $15k plus A/C system that is working fine. read more

Peter and Vasiliy are friendly, great communications, professional, intelligent, fair priced, and knowledgeable. Peter went beyond the normal service to make sure our one unforeseen problem was very promptly solved after the install. Although paid in full, Peter stands by his and his employees' work. Many companies desert you after being paid but you can relax knowing that Peter will promptly take care of any and all issues if needed. A Cool Air also used the best and highly recommended product, Trane, with a great warranty on both parts and labor. We have had our new unit for about a month of very hot weather and love the more quiet humming of our new unit. Great service and price are just two important reasons to hire A Cool Air for your A/C needs. read more

I have been using this company for a few years now. They are very efficient and clean. The service is excellent.

We had an emergency compressor outage (outside unit) mid-week and they were kind enough to squeeze our repair in before the weekends. Without that repair, we would have a very different weekend at home (upward of 100+ degrees here). We were so glad they made our weekend much more enjoyable at home without the high heat. Special thanks to Valerie for her excellent communication as well as Artem (the tech that showed up and fixed our compressor), for his professionalism and we especially appreciate the fact that he gave me a call when he's about 30 mins away from my house so I can prep the place ready, put the dog away, come back home from work, etc. read more

did a good job with affordable pricing. they offered great solutions to my concerns. they should try to improve on being on time for their appointments but will not drop a star for that. read more

Absolutely appreciate this company for their integrity and honesty. Was having intermittent issues with my heat. The issue didn't present itself upon inspection. Let's face it, these types of companies can tell you anything, and although you may not like it, you have to go with it, or be cold, (or get a second opinion). They can tell us XYZ is wrong and it's $2k to fix, even if it's not true. My technician was Vasyl. He was very thorough, patient, courteous and honest. He checked and tested everything, replaced the batteries in my thermostat and believed all else was good, relieving me from a big bill. If issues persist, I will definitely call them back for assistance. Thank you A Cool Air for not taking advantage of your customers!!! read more

Special thanks to Artem (HVAC Tech) and Valerie for their excellent communication and positive friendly attitudes. The repairs went swimmingly and the price point was fair in my opinion. Definitely continuing to use A Cool Air as my go to for my HVAC needs. Thanks again! read more

I used these folks for my parents heater issue last year and they were able to remedy the issue. FF to last week, my sister's AC went out. I contacted them at night and they were able to come out first thing and fix the issue. Artem was great and provided great service. Thanks again! read more

I am so happy to have found A Cool Air. Having been through several bad experiences with contractors, I am wary of finding one who I can trust to replace my 25 year-old HVAC. Vasiliy and his team Victor and Pablo are true professionals. On of first day of installation, they allayed any doubts I might have on picking them. They went about doing their job and when I saw how neat and clean their work are, I was ecstatic. I can sense the pride they have in their workmanship. With mild OCD, I am bother if something does not line or square up. I can fault nothing in their installation. It was perfect! I spent days researching on various HVAC systems, digesting HVAC companies reviews, and interviewed 8 contractors. I narrowed down to 2 contractors and could not be happier to select A Cool Air. A big part of the decision came down to Vasiliy. He was responsive, accommodating, answered all my questions with such patience. They all said HVAC installer is more important than actual HVAC system. I could not have agreed more. And the fact they installed equipment made by Trane, one of the top HVAC manufacturers is just an icing on the cake. The new system far surpasses the one it replaces, operating so much quieter and efficiently. I am looking forward to many years of enjoying my new heating and cooling system. Thank you A Cool Air! read more

A Cool Air was quick to respond when I started seeking out quotes, and were bale to give me a few estimates before coming out and inspecting our unit. They were polite, professional, and had very fair pricing. Their work was great and they finished the job sooner than expected (which meant we got to use our AC sooner, hooray!) Peter was very honest and gave my husband and I multiple options and recommendations that helped us save money while also having a better system overall. I highly recommend them and will be going to them for any future HVAC needs. read more

We just finished having our entire HVAC and duct work replaced by A Cool Air and wow, what a difference in the air output, as well as the noise levels. They originally said the job could take 2-3 days and they finished in about a day and a half. And right in time before the heat wave. They were professional, on-time and friendly. We asked a lot of questions prior to scheduling our install and Peter and Vasily were very helpful in getting all our questions answered - we had a lot! Overall they had the best price and are a part of the SMUD contractors network, so it was an easy decision to choose them. Highly recommend them if you're looking for HVAC work. read more

The AC at our house seemed like it was running all the time and barely working. They day of our appointment with A Cool Air, my baby sitter cancelled on me and so I requested that they notify me of their arrival time before hand. They were courteous about the situation and notified me before coming to give me time to make arrangements for my child. Artem, the technician, came out on time and was very professional and courteous. He tested my thermostats because one of them seemed like it was not working. He replaced the battery in it free of charge. He was able to diagnose that the system was leaking Freon and fixed the issue. He was always transparent about cost for the work which I appreciated. I would call A Cool Air again for any HVAC issues. read more

I shopped around at 5 different HVAC companies and A Cool Air had the best prices, gave me better equipment and installed zoning which has made things much better. The other companies didn't even offer a solution for dealing with the temperature differences between upstairs and downstairs, while cool air made several suggestions and offered different packages at different price points. Most places only give 2 years of labor warranty, while this company gives 5. You should shop around at different places before you decide, but make sure this is one of the companies you shop at. We are cool and ready for summer! read more

Show up on time. Easy talk to guy and knows what's going on with my AC. Fixed it on the first time. I glad I got him.

Quick to respond with a quote and scheduling. They were able to come out next day and fixed the issue.

We recently bought a house with a 42 year old HVAC system and knew it was time to replace it. We contacted several HVAC companies for quotes. A Cool Air was not only the most competitive, Peter was very straightforward, polite and honest when he went over what needed to be done and provided an estimate. His team helped us fill out the paperwork for our SMUD loan and scheduled our install the day after our loan was approved! We have a dual unit system (two a/c units and two furnaces). The installers got everything installed in just two days and, during the install, made sure we had working a/c at night during the recent heat wave when temps were above 110 degrees. Our a/c is working amazingly! The air comes out so much stronger and cools the house so much quicker. We are very happy and will be using A Cool Air for all of our HVAC needs and recommending them to family and friends. It was a pleasure doing business with them! read more

The owner Peter came to give an estimate to replace my old HVAC system. I requested he wear PPE since he was needing to evaluate the inside of my home. I was given some initial flak, but insisted and he finally relented. During the visit he stated to me that the pandemic was propaganda and did not believe in it. It's his place to adhere with a customer's request and not argue. I received a good estimate and was going to use his company, but when I asked if his technicians would be wearing PPE while working for a day & a half in my home, he said they would not. I advised him I am a senior with some health issues and if they would not use PPE, I would pass on the bid. I passed and chose another company that had no issues with protecting me and themselves. I would give a low rating. read more

Great company overall! This last go around I worked with Vasiliy, and he was very professional and cordial. He came to my house the day after I called our AC went out, and he fixed our AC that same day (replaced a capacitor and added freon; also checked all the other components). He did this on top of having a very busy schedule in the middle of a heatwave.   A week later I saw a water leak from a pipe that had a possible connection to our original AC unit issue. Vasiliy again came out without a fuss and checked it out. He said everything was fine and he then left without charging me.  I had a great experience working with A Cool Air and Vasiliy! read more

I liked the representative but the company isn't on the list for SMUD. I need the rebates so i can afford the new heat pump. He was very polite and understanding about this. read more

A Cool Air installed a completely new HVAC system into our home in 2017. We had several estimates, and not only were they the least expensive, but they also gave the longest warranty. The installation went very well, and the crew was very professional and friendly. We were very pleased. We had one small warranty claim a couple of years ago and they promptly took care of it, even topping off the coolant. Last night, out of nowhere, the outside unit fan, just stopped working. With this extreme heat we're dealing with right now, our home got very warm. Today, the Friday before Labor Day weekend, where we are expecting the temperatures to soar over 111 degrees, I was very concerned if I was going to be able to get our A/C fixed. I called A Cool Air this morning and left them a message with my concerns. They called me back in less than an hour and were able to squeeze me in to their already very busy schedule. The technician arrived within the hour and diagnosed it as a bad capacitor. He replaced it quickly as a warranty claim and was on his way in less than thirty minutes. A Cool Air absolutely saved the day and our weekend! From the initial estimating process, to the installation process, and now to this emergency repair some FIVE years after the installation of the HVAC system, A Cool Air has been so professional. Based on our experience with them, we HIGHLY recommend A Cool Air. read more

A Cool Air responded very quickly to my inquiry through Yelp, and was able to come out first thing the next day. Vasiliy was thorough and quick. The service was priced exactly right. I appreciated his honest and dedication to his work. It did take two days to get the receipt and report, but I assumed, because they have an exceptional business, that they are very busy helping other customers. I definitely recommend using this company, and plan to use them for regular maintenance going forward. read more

We cannot state how pleased we were to hire this company to recently install 2 HVAC units at our commercial property. The units were installed quickly and included roof installation and large indoor ducting. There was no AC available at the units when they were installed and the installers returned to hook and test the units when AC was eventually turned on. We had a number of quotes for this work - and A Cool Air was by far the BEST price. Vasiliy always responded quickly to all communications and scheduling, and the contractors were also extremely polite, knowledgeable, and hard working. THANK YOU so much A Cool Air! read more

I had Peter's team come out and give me a quote. They came when they said they would, had a great price for great equipment. They did the job when they said they would, and efficiently. it's been three years and the system has worked well. We have been very pleased. Suddenly, last week something was not working right with our heating. Vasily came out twice and had it working until it went out again. On Sunday, Super Bowl Sunday, the owner himself, Peter, came out and fixed the problem. These people are good people who stand behind their work! I am happy to give five stars and to strongly recommend them! Dan Rancho Cordova, CA read more

My first time using this company and I was satisfied. He did some maintenance work and did a repair and showed me the electrical test to show me it was a bad part and they were not trying to rip me off. Trustworthy company. I will use him again in the future. read more

These guys are great. They are efficient, responsive and don't get technical when explaining what's wrong. I first used them in 2013 to replace a ducted HVAC system in our new house. I think I've called them back only once for an issue, and that was a "user" error. I've also used them on a few rental properties when things have gone wrong. Their pricing is very reasonable. I recently used them to install an electric mini-split HVAC system for a garage we converted into an ADU. I wouldn't hesitate to call them again. Stay cool. read more
