I called Yurik Khudanyan at UMC Air Conditioning at 7 AM because my AC died in the middle of the heat wave yesterday. Yurik had Armen from Air-O-Tech call me. Armen called me at 10:30 and by !2:30 by AC was fixed and running great. Couldnt believe this kind of service when then all of these companies must be very busy. Armen and his assistant were great. Immediately found the problem and fixed it. Recharged by compressor .. AC working great. High quality service at a very reaonsable price. read more

Great repair work on HVAC system by Armen-- clear communication about the problems and quick, prompt service.

Armen was great to interact with. He came promptly after I called him and was able to diagnose and fix the issue right away. Thank you so much! read more

I could not have been more fortunate to find Air-O-Tech! Armen responded right away when my ancient HVAC dropped dead. (During a heatwave!) He made a thorough, same day inspection , but couldn't save my existing 1980's rooftop unit. Two days later I have a new, efficient HVAC system. Price was fair & installation was seamless. Air-O-Tech is now my go-to for all HVAC service. read more

Mr. Armen is not responsible he replaced a unit at my Relatives house. The unit was not installed Properly now when they come to use the unit its making a noise and the neighbor is complaining. He is not answering text messages or phone calls. When he does Answer with text he keeps on saying send me the contact when he did the installation. He should have the Copy of the contract and he should stand behind his work. read more

I was working with Armen from Air o Tech on a multi unit property, he had installed multiple split AC units. The AC units only lasted a few months until they started giving multiple issues. Armen has since completely ignored all phone calls and texts regarding these repairs. I have called other AC companies to look at the units but Armen is the one who set up these units and they do not want to take up the responsibility. I am willing to pay for these repairs because I've been receiving non stop complaints from tenants. Nonetheless Armen refuses to even pickup or respond, and he promised warranty on all these items which he did not honor. I gave him the benefit of the doubt and waited months before writing this review. Hopefully you reach out and fix the AC units I paid thousands of dollars for. read more

This past Sunday, late afternoon we went to an early dinner, the air conditioner was set to 73, and upon return, it was 80. An hour later it was 83, and I panicked. My father was expecting his first ever FaceTime call from his brother and I needed to find out why the fan was blowing HOT air. So YELPEd I did. I received 6 responses with AIR-O-TECH being one of them. Armen both owner and the licensed contractor who came out requested more information. I texted it ( but to the wrong number and my dad had his FaceTime Call). Armen said if it was not so late he could have come out tonight. Let's make it tomorrow morning between 9 and 10 am, I have to make a delivery first. Of the other 5 responses, they stated tomorrow day. No time. He texted that he was 30 minutes away, and put on clean booties to protect my floors, and a clean mask, to protect my health. At the time of the text, Armen stated a price for the estimate, explaining that it takes his time to drive to my home and to find what is wrong. His was right in the middle of the others. When he found the piece, he explained that it may just be that piece, but it may not. He could fix it and then have to fix another and another, etc. Asking his opinion, we decided to change the entire heating and air conditioning unit. He stated that his company had an opening on Wednesday, and that was the most optimal day for us. He needed to rent a crane, and he and his contracting employe removed the old and installed the new with precision and were extremely neat, organized, clean, and respectful from the first message to the receipt. They even gave a one year LABOR and ten years PARTS guarantee. He threw in a FREE air conditioning pad, and showed me how to operate the new update equipment. Pluses going with AIR-O-Tech: Very Responsive to YELP REQUEST, gave a WRITTEN ESTIMATE in line with the law; SAID A DAY AND TIME and ARMEN messaged 30 minutes prior to alert us that he was on the way; USED A CRANE; ; WAS VERY NEAT, CLEAN, ORGANIZED, WELL GROOMED, WORE UNIFORMS SO YOU KNEW WHO WAS ENTERING YOUR HOME; GAVE A WRITTEN RECEIPT FOR ONE YEAR LABOR AND TEN YEAR PARTS GUARANTEE; LICENSED, SAID IT AND DID IT. Would I use them again. ABSOLUTELY. THIS WAS MY DADS HOME. MY HOME NEEDS POSSIBLY A NEW AIR CONDITIONING UNIT TOO. POSSIBLY EVEN A BIGGER ONE. HIS WAS A 4 TON UNIT, and I HAVE A 3 TON THAT HAS GONE OUT ( and a home that is larger). My only compliant is that they don't do EVERYTHING IN THAT THEY APPEAR TO BE VERY HONEST AND WE ARE VERY HAPPY WITH THEIR SERVICE. July 11, 2020 Although Armen and his brother are fantastic, I have a very difficult stressor going on with family, specifically my father, as a result, I forgot how to change the filters On the new Air Conditioner and Furnace, Armen, and his brother installed, and they even left an extra filter and demonstrated but my father was just getting out of the hospital and I did not focus at the time. So I called tonight, left a message and Armen returned the message within a couple of minutes I am very grateful that I chose a great company with an owner who stands behind his product and even responds so quickly to questions that his past very satisfied customers have Once again Armen a GIANT THANK YOU!! read more

Called Armen for an urgent repair for my tenant in West Hollywood. He responded super fast, and provided very nice service next morning. Thanks Armen! You did a great job. read more

Our air conditioner went out during the hottest day on record in LA County - 114° at our house. Armen was very responsive and came out within an hour after I first contacted him. He came wearing a mask, which I very much appreciated. He informed me that our system is 14 years old, but that our fix today was simple. It just required resetting the system electronically. He could have easily taken advantage of the situation, saying that we need a new compressor, but he was honest and the fix was fast and easy. He took the time to explain the the issue and what to look for in the future. He is also very reasonably priced, especially for a fast response visit. Additionally, he did this on Labor Day. Air-O-Tech will be my go-to HVAC company in the future. The company and Armen have my highest recommendation. read more

Armen replaced my HVAC quickly and efficiently. Great deal on a brand new Rheem. Spent extra time to make sure everything was up and running correctly. He even rewired my Nest. Very responsive and reliable, good follow up. Would highly recommend! read more

Just called for a quote to replace my 3.5 ton A/C unit for my condo - got a truculent and unhelpful response and attitude on the phone with the business owner- no sense of customer service! Hard pass and an offputting enough experience for me to write a review here- will definately not be spending my money here! read more

Armen and his team at Air-O-Tech are really nice and honest and straightforward. We first used them a while back to fix our aging condenser unit (which they did very efficiently). Last week I had Armen put in a completely new furnace, blower and condenser to replace our old system. They did it quickly, they left no mess behind, the quality of their workmanship was good, and the price was very fair. I would definitely recommend these guys. read more

Beyond happy with the quality of service and attention that I received from Air-o-tech/Armen. After dealing with a few other A/C techs about my broken down 30 year-old system and either getting ghosted after paying for an estimate or what felt like an outrageous quote, I contacted Armen due to his stellar reputation here. He came over and assessed my situation that same day, for free, and his quote came with a thorough explanation on what I should (and shouldn't) do. Not too mention is was CONSIDERABLY less than the other quotes I received prior. Armen replaced my condenser and ceiling fan coil in my condo in what seemed like no time at all, and still took the time to explain certain things that he felt I should know. TL:DR version: Save Air-o-tech's phone number in your phone now, and never have to look for an A/C tech again. read more

Armen was great! I contacted multiple air-conditioning and heating people to fix an AC unit that was not blowing cold air and they all said I would have to wait 2 days but Armen said he would be over in a couple hours. He arrived and within minutes he found the problem and then also told me that my unit was not a good brand and I suggested that I get a better more efficient one. I will be working with him again to replace this unit and other units I have. Highly recommended! read more

Air-O-Tech - He plugged his machine into the unit and found the problem immediately. A very nice guy as well. - Heating & Air Conditioning/HVAC Near Me - Burbank , California

We were having issues with our AC unit on the hottest week of summer to date! Armen was able to come out and fix it quickly. Our HOA requires extra documentation, which he sent within the first hour of me contacting him through Yelp. In less than an hour he was able to diagnose and fix our AC issues and the cold air is back! read more

I finally found someone in the AC repair industry who's trustworthy & reliable! Armen arrived to my home ready to fix what he initially thought was the issue with the AC unit. He tested out the new parts he brought to discover it was a much bigger problem... the compressor in my system was blown. He said he wouldn't be able to get it working without it. So either new compressor or new system. Either way, it sucks. He was very gracious about the whole thing however, and only charged me a low fee for diagnosis despite being out on my hot roof for a couple hours. I'll probably be hot around here for a while but I'll rest assured at least I didn't get ripped off! Thanks Armen!! read more

Armen was a great help. He replaced a bad condenser on my rental property. Helped coordinate the schedule with my tenant and got the job done quickly. Would definitely call again for future services. read more

I contacted Armen to replace a/c circulation fan motor in my condo. I was very pleased with his responsiveness in answering and explaining me what had to be fixed. He was not only able to get the part and replace it within 24hrs but also gave me good price. Thanks Armen! read more

Highly recommend! I initially found Air-O-Tech when I requested a quote for a Nest Installation since my old thermostat completely lost power. Air-o-Tech (Armen) gave me the best quote, I went with them, and I am very glad that I did. Armen gave me a 2 hour window for his arrival time and called me at least 15 minutes before arriving. initially, I thought that I simply needed a new thermostat because my old one lost power. The job wasn't as simple as replacing my thermostat, there was something else going that required more troubleshooting. Even though Armen was called out to install the Nest, Armen was focused and dedicated to solving this unexpected issue after several troubleshooting steps. He had all the tools needed with him and quickly resolved my issues. He went above and beyond the initial call request and I am very happy with my experience. He is clearly experienced, solution oriented, and very reasonable. I will be in touch for annual maintenance and I will also be recommending him to my neighbors, friends, and family members. read more

Called Armen a couple hours ago- he finished up his job and headed right over. Identified the issue and fixed my AC. Professional. Prompt. Honest. And most importantly, our AC working again and I'll be able to sleep tonight. Thanks Armen! read more

Air-O-Tech - Amen wrapping things up in this heat! Thank you good sir!!! - Heating & Air Conditioning/HVAC Near Me - Burbank , California

My AC unit in need of repair. He responded quickly and charged $70 for diagnostic. He recommended two "boosts", $400 and $350, and a fan motor, $1100. I did research and got a second opinion. Turns out a "boost" is BS, and the fan motor only cost $200. An honest guy did the job for the $200 part and $100 labor. This guy is a crook. Run the other way! read more

When our heater stopped heating mid-winter and our AC stopped ACing on the first week of hot weather, Air-O-Tech was there for me! Including during quarantine (I'm so glad they're considered essential!) when, of course the technician was fully socially distant, with gloves and mask. Looking forward to a long-term relationship for ongoing maintenance of my HVAC units. read more

Called Air-O-Tech to look at our 15 year old A/C system installed by a previous owner. I wanted to make sure we were in good shape with filters and the system as a whole since it hadn't been looked at since our initial home inspection. Armen replied promptly by phone and was able to come out the same day. He looked over the system and we ended up tackling a couple small maintenance items. He could have charged more, but instead of charging for a filter, for example, he explained the size and direction of installation so I was able to take care of it myself. Air-O-Tech will be my first call in the future. Fast, professional and easy to work with! read more

Within 3 weeks of Armen coming over, our unit was no longer blowing cold air, so obviously there was a leak. Armen's charge for a leak test was $500, and at the time he assured us that it was normal for such an old unit to slowly lose coolant (I have since learned it is not!). This is the only reason we decided to refill our unit with coolant for a price of $800 (the companies we later had out couldn't believe the high leak test charge let alone the charge for the test at all). In hindsight he never showed me the gauge that verified how many pounds he actually put in so I will always wonder if it was actually as empty as he says it was. Back to our AC not working again after Armen's visit, we didn't want to put more money into an older unit so we decided to replace it. After researching getting a new unit we felt even worse about what Armen had told us and the services he provided. We ended up having several other companies out (no less than 6) to provide a quote, sharing with them our experience, and it only became more clear that Armen took advantage of us. We're not blameless though. Ultimately it's a situation of buyer beware, which is why I'm updating my review. If it helps prevent this from happening to just even one more person, it's worth it. Number one, there is a free optimization program through LADWP. The visit from a participating, registered technician is free, they test your unit's efficiency, AND you get 2 free pounds of coolant if needed. That's a couple hundred dollar value right there. If your unit qualifies you can also get a rebate for a replacement unit. There are certain terms and conditions but check it out. Armen is not a part of this program. In addition to this, getting back to our specific unit, one company noted there were signs of an oil leak as well as a clear puddle inside the base of the outdoor unit, most likely the leaking coolant. These were never mentioned by Armen. Also, several quoted us a much cheaper price for R-22. But wait, there's more. We learned that R-22 will no longer be available (for import into the US) as of January 1, 2020 and therefore a material that is going into extinction. This would have effected our decision. Again, we feel this should have been shared with us by Armen. After meeting with the other companies and collecting all the information, we called Armen and gave him the opportunity to amend the situation. He was argumentative and defended his work, refusing to provide even a partial refund, let alone an apology. In the end, please do your own research, learn from our mistakes, and save yourself some frustration, disappointment, and money by using another company. read more

Very kind and knowledgeable, he fixed our AC unit the same day and answered all our questions. We will definitely be calling him again when needed. read more

Air-O-Tech A+++. Our furnace section died and want blowing any air. We could live without heat at, but with summer coming on, we wanted to fix the situation. After being completely let down by someone else, we contacted 5 companies to take a look at the job. The first and second company barely glanced at the system before giving pretty high estimates. Air-OTech came out and really looked at it thoroughly before writing a price well over$1,000 less. We called the others and declined service. This was on a Friday, and add luck would have it, Armen would be able to install it on Tuesday. I got a call on Monday. Armen was thinking about our home over the weekend. He wanted to stop by before going out to get our equipment, there was something that just didn't add up. Or system was mismatched: we had a 3 ton condenser, and a 4 ton system under the house.... Someone had obviously made a huge mistake before!... And he caught it. The decision was made to replace the entire system.... His pricing was right in line with before: much less than I expected or was told by others. Armen bought the equipment and still arrived and finished the entire job in one day, including the delay on pulling and setting up an entire system and running new copper line for the coolant under the house ( 40+ feet). The attention to detail was incredible. His commitment to his work, admirable. Everything was cleaned up and we actually had a working system that night!. I work in the home service industry, and will definitely be handing out his card to my clients. I count my myself very lucky to have found this company. read more

They came to fix my AC in the middle of worst heat wave. Very professional. Finished in 30 minutes. Thank You read more

Came over twice to fix an unprofessional work someone else did. He was flexible, answered fast, came over even faster and did the job. Always had the mask on, left everything clean and had fair prices. I wouldn't call anyone else. read more

We called them to fix our AC and right away they came out. It was a minor repair and they did not even charge us. We wanted to upgrade our HVAC system for awhile, so we requested a quote for a new HVAC system. They offered us a competitive bid. He wanted more than 50% down before the job, which I was hesitant about. But, they installed 4 ton unit, 14 seer goodman HVAC system and I am having no problems so far. read more

I've had challenges finding someone who is reliable and fair but my experience with Air- O- Tech has been such a great experience. Great communication, extremely fair with what he charges, he's efficient and I am now happy to have found my go-to for repairs and any issues!! read more

We had our AC go out on one of the hottest days of the year and needed a fix ASAP. I called Air O Tech and talked to the Owner, Armen, and he was able to come out the next day and fix our system! As a small business owner, it is important to know there are other business owners who care and able to help when these types of issues come up. I cannot recommend Air O Tech enough and will be using them in the future for all my repair and new installations. Look them up if you are in the area and need someone affordable, honest, and reliable. read more

Armen was wonderful! Our AC broke down on the first day of the hot season. We called for help, he came out on the same day and repaired our unit! ------ Updated 7/29/20 Our upstairs wall unit was having some issues and we also needed to install Nest. Of course we called Armen again. He came out and did a fantastic job. With Nest, after Armen installed it, we must have touched something wrong when we were patching holes from our old thermo unit. It stopped working soon after. We called him and asked him to take a look. He came back out at 8 in the morning(!!) and fixed it for us! He is definitely our go-to AC man! Thank you Armen! read more

The air condition at my office stopped working at 4:00 PM I called by 5 Armen came and checked it out. By 5:15 he presented me with the problem and the solution. We agreed on a repair price and By 6:30 all was done and air conditioner is working. Armen is knowledgeable and honest. He gave me some tips on how to prevent this kind of problem in future and we set up a time for a maintenance work. I'm very happy I found him as I have been burnt by previous air condition repair guys. Thank you Armen read more

Armen is a good AC technician. He's reliable and quickly came over to fix my AC the next day. His service was much appreciated!

I am very happy with Armen's service. He did excellent work at 3 different properties for me. At one rental property in Pasadena, he installed a brand new condenser on the roof and did all of the plumbing work inside the unit to get the AC working perfectly. At another rental property in Arcadia, he installed a new unit as the old one was leaking. He also discovered that the old unit's overflow was leaking into the insulation. Cleaned up the entire attic and the tenants are now super happy. He also repaired a small leak in one of the AC units at my home. Armen is prompt, friendly and honest, so I recommend him highly. read more

I had to replace our Central AC unit, and I contacted Air O Tech, they showed up on time , I received a very professional service , technician knew what exactly his doing. Done the job in 3 days , clean finish , I am very satisfied . Definitely recommended. read more

Our a/c was blowing warm air the night before the hottest day of the year. Armen replied to my request for a quote on Yelp within 20 minutes. He said he could be out the next day. He arrived when promised, showed us what the problem was - low freon, missing o-rings, low pressure, and a capacitor that needed to be replaced. He told us how much he would charge to fix and replace those, and add a booster device. He got right to work after we approved the cost. Less than an hour after he arrived, blessed cold air was blowing throughout our house once again. Nice guy, prompt, guarantees his work - and as existing customers, he will do annual service/maintenance calls at a very reasonable rate! I already have him on the calendar for next March! read more

Excellent service. Armen is great! Had a wonderful experience with him. Our ac in the office was not working and I had to call different companies on yelp to get the fastest available technician with the best deal. So far he had the most reasonable price. He arrived on time and got the job right. Received same day fast and reliable service. Affordable price! Highly recommend this company. read more
