Ara at SubCool was quick to come fix my air conditioner in Sherman Oaks on a very hot day. We had good, easy communication by phone and text and he emailed me a receipt when the job was done. I have an older air conditioner but he had the parts and didn't push to up-sell me. Of course he recommend I upgrade to new at some point but I wasn't going to do it that day. He did a good job and I was cool by that evening. read more

Ara kept his word and able to work around my pricing he was there within minutes of me calling him for a service , my Freon was out and capacitor , also filter was filthy he was able to do the job within 1 hour and let me tell you our AC is cold as Antarctica now ! Man if his word ! And very understanding especially for a starting young family living in these tough times read more

Really bizarre... the technician came out today to fix my AC. Looks at it and tells me it's too hot today and he doesn't want to do the job. Wasted everyone's time just by coming out to my house to tell me he just doesn't feel like doing the job today. He says it was a 150 degrees. Someone from another AC company came about 45 min after he left. Used a thermometer, said it was 105 in the attic and fixed the unit in about 20 min. I would use them instead of A Subcool. Never experienced a company not wanting to do the job they showed up for. read more

Fast service and honest. Replies immediately and explains the service thoroughly. Will recommend to friends and family.

Ara was fantastic. He arrived on very short notice when no one else was available and fixed a serious issue with my furnace he unexpectedly found as he was inspecting a wiring issue for my AC. 100% would hire him again! read more

Our central AC went out and I called several HVAC places to request service the next available service appointment was until Monday. I called this morning and explained what was happening, he arrived within 2 hours. Fixed the issue and provided tips on maintenance for the unit. Very prompt and friendly service! Will definitely keep his contact information for next time. read more

The day after Christmas our central heat stopped working. I called Ara at A Subcool Air Conditioning. He responded promptly and found the solution to our problem. I highly recommend. read more

Ara has a lot of experience installing and repairing AC units. I have used his services for a long time. I recommend Ara to family, friends, and clients and they are all happy with the type of services they got from Ara and his company. My nephew's heat pump was not working. My nephew hired someone to check his broken heat pump. The technician came over and replaced the thermostat. That did not work. He was going to replace the condenser motor next. I asked my nephew to ask the other company to stop replacing the parts one at a time. I called Ara and he diagnosed the problem and fixed the heat pump. The heat pump is as good as new now. I trust Ara with all our repairs and maintenance needs. read more

Thank goodness for Mike! Yesterday it was 112 degrees and guess whose air condenser fan went out? Yeah... This girl! Between yesterday and this morning, I called at least fifteen local a/c repair companies. Everyone was booked solid for a few days up to two weeks. Fortunately, I stumbled upon this company on Yelp! and Mike answered. Mike was working a job and said he would call me in a few hours once he was down. Within 2-3 hours, Mike called and was at my house. Mike quickly diagnosed the problem. A part needed to be replaced. The repair was done within 30 minutes at a reasonable cost. #nomoresauna Thank you Mike for your quick service and honesty. read more

The AC in my condo wasn't blowing cold air anymore. It was a Sunday and about 107 degrees in the SF Valley. I got on Yelp and called some places. Ara answered my call and said he could be there in 90 minutes .. Wow !! He was on time and had all his equipment. Long story short- he had it working again in about an hour. He was nice and professional. What a lifesaver he was. Thank you again Ara for the fantastic and last minute service !! read more

Called for an emergency repair, he showed up within an hour. He was thorough and eventually found the circuit that needed to be replaced. Good as new and fairly priced! read more

Excellent service. Fast and professional. Came to my home in about 1 hour and fixed the issue quickly. Very grateful for the fast service in such a hot day. read more

Ara was very helpful and down to earth. He was also honest and reliable. He communicated with me and my tenant to get the repairs done the same day I called. Very trustworthy and more than helpful. I've dealt with alot of AC contractors, but he is the most pleasant and knowledgeable person to work with. read more

I am struggling to find the right words. The service was IMPECCABLE. Our AC went out today around 6 this evening and of course I start panicking because it's 100 degrees outside literally. Ara responded to my quote request within MINUTES and got a technician to my house within 40 minutes. The technician was very kind and knowledgeable, figured out the issue in ten minutes and fixed it in under an hour. We lucked out that he had the part we needed in his truck. My AC is working 100% now. Price was EXTREMELY reasonable even with the fact that the part we needed was on the expensive side. 10/10 would definitely recommend. read more

Ara is a dependable AC Installer and Repair Tech. He is always there when I need him. When my AC went out in summer, he ripped it out on a Saturday and had it fully installed and running on Monday afternoon! read more

Been trying to schedule our normal annual AC check with our usual technician BUT he didn't respond... Wouldn't you know it AC goes kaput :( a few days later. Called the usual guy again... still no response... hope he's ok... Had to find someone w/ high ratings that would come ASAP... This was my 2nd call. Called Mike @ 4pm on a Saturday he came @ 5:45pm. Checked everything out found the problem, had the part and replaced it in about 45 mins. Googled the price he charged for the service rendered and he was on the low end of what you could except so feeling good considering he was available that quickly. Heck according to Yelp he was 2 hr from closing for the day! Nice! Looks like he's my new AC guy! Thanks again! read more

BEWARE, He is a crook & scam artist! Sold me an air conditioning unit for thousands of dollars he claimed was in great condition & it never worked correctly. Every time I had issues with it (which was constantly) & I would call him he would arrive late if ever at all & try and swindle me out of more & more money. Never again! read more

My A/C stopped working around 5pm during the last heatwave. I called around a lot of places to try to get someone to come that same day. This was the only company that would come out the same day. The tech was very helpful and worked through the dark to fix the unit. Very thankful! read more

Mr. Mike is a kind and nice man. I found him to be honest and hardworking. He was the one who actually performed the task pertaining to our roof airconditioning. I highly recommend "A Subcool" because of Mr. Mike. Thanks Mr. Mike :-) read more

I used this company for my business in Santa Monica and he's a trustworthy person who gave me a reasonable price to work with and provides great service. I highly recommend read more

The service was excellent. From the moment I called until he left. I called in the evening and he was at my house by 8:30 the next day. He checked everything and kept me informed the entire time. I would use them again and recommend them highly! read more

I have used this company twice now for my home AC and Heater unit, because Ara is simply the best. He is honest trustworthy and will not take advantage of you. He is punctual and explains everything so you understand what is wrong with your unit. He also provides multiple options for repairs all given your budget. I cant say enough about Ara simply the best, I highly recommend them read more

It's taken a while to write this review, but I figured I should wait to see how the A/C held up through the summer. My A/C died during a 112-degree Valley Summer night. The next day, I called A Subcool Air Conditioning as soon as they opened. I didn't expect anyone to be available, but they said they would send someone out in the next few hours. Two hours later, a guy checked out my A/C and fixed it. I was pretty happy...until the unit went out again. I called the company back and they sent out the same guy after 6pm. Again, he fixed my unit, but wanted extra $$ for driving back out to me (we ended up compromising). Although I'm super happy that my A/C was fixed AND that they were very responsive during one of the busiest times of the year, I was a little annoyed that they didn't fix the unit the first time and then wanted me to pay extra for the follow up visit. All in all a very experience. read more

I had water leaking through my ceiling from my air conditioner on a weekend during a heatwave. Everywhere I called previously told me they had a 3 day wait. Mike was able to schedule me within an hour, was professional and courteous, and fixed my air conditioner for a reasonable price. He explained what was wrong and even gave me advice on how to prevent the issue occurring again. Great service, would highly recommend! read more

Our air conditioner quit on the hottest day of the year. I reached out on Yelp and they got back to me immediately. They had a technician to our house in 30 minutes. He diagnosed and fixed the problem within in an hour and our unit is working again. So grateful! read more

It's unfortunate to give an abysmal rating, but Mike completely left us hanging by missing our scheduled appointment without any prior or post contact whatsoever. Tried contacting him several times to no avail. Blowing off customers is not a very good way to do business. read more

He came right out on a Friday evening, fixed it right away and did it at what seemed a reasonable price. I will definitely be calling him again if I need more help with my AC or Furnace. Thanks Ara! read more

Thank you Ara! Our air conditioning went out in the middle of a heat wave, not cool. We called Ara and he came out the same day, literally in less than an hour. He fixed our AC for a reasonable price and we were quickly back in the nice cool AC filled house. Always good to find an honest and reliable company to use, thank you Ara. read more

I needed some work done on my chiller unit in my condo and there were so many repairmen that turned me down but not this company. Many do not work on that type of unit anymore which is surprising in this area. I called and they reached out to me offering to come that same day. It was fixed at a reasonable price and at a reasonable pace. I would certainly recommend this company to any friend and family member and for sure if there are any problems with my AC unit I will certainly be calling this company again (hopefully not soon). read more

Our air conditioner stopped working. I called and he was very responsive. He came the next morning and was very punctual. He is a trustworthy person. His price was very reasonable and explained what he showed the part that needed replacement. He replaced it and made sure that the unit was working fine. We will refer him if someone needs an air conditioner company. We now have an air conditioner company for any further repairs and for maintenance. read more

ArA is great! Makes the effort to get there as soon as he can. On time. Helped twice in the last 3 weeks on ac repairs. Thanks for keeping my family cool!!! read more

A Subcool Air Conditioning - House wouldn't get cooler than 78 in 104 weather. Now easily keeps us at 71! Thanks! - Heating & Air Conditioning/HVAC Near Me

Well during the big August heatwave I got back from our Vacation to find that the air conditioning had broken. Many companies were to busy to call me back or when I did reach hem they told me they couldn't get to me for a few days. Then I called Subcool, and Ara came by in less than and hour and had it working in 15 minutes. Fixed what was wrong and charged a fair price, I couldn't have been more satisfied. read more

Came the same day to fix my air conditioner. He had to go on the roof of a townhouse which wasn't easy. He fixed the problem quickly and was very professional. Great work! read more

Came within 30 min after a last minute call, and after they closed too! He came and spot the problem - he replaced the disconnect box/wires - got a competitive price for the service and items. Would definitely call again if I have another problem. Thanks! read more

My air conditioning went out on me during one of the hottest weeks of the year!!! I called 4 different places and they were acting like they were soooo busy and that they wouldn't be able to get to me any sooner than next week. Plus there would be a $100 diagnostic fee right from the jump. I looked online and found A Subcool Air Conditioning and talked to this guy Mike. He was super cool and came right over with no problem. Mike new his stuff and took care of the issue and was very affordable! He is now my "Air Condition Guy's"! read more

My very first Yelp review goes to this wonderful outfit. Excellent service and superior workmanship. Yesterday, Ara and Gary finished a unique installation of a minisplit Fujitsu system in our 500 sq ft upstairs area. Professionally and quickly completed at a very fair price. While other a/c companies expressed reluctance to take our job, A Subcool promptly came out, surveyed the layout, and provided a bid price well below a host of price gougers. They even repaired some electrical issues unrelated to our job. My wife and I are extremely pleased with everything. Buy with confidence! read more
