Good golly, am I grateful for meeting the fine folks at GREEN PLANET!…read more * OH NO! MY OLD AC WIZARD RETIRED! Long story semi-short, my AC of 26 years had been on its last legs since about 2017... I'd been postponing the inevitable with R-22 recharge + leak sealant, with service from a older fellow whom I'd had a great relationship with, for almost a decade. Between 2020 and 2025, all seemed "tolerable" with my old Payne/Carrier AC + furnace. But last fall, it was clear my system had given up the ghost... and unbeknownst to me, the fabulous older gentleman who'd been coming here off and on for years, retired and moved out of state. I needed some new AC geniuses! Let the research and bidding/quoting madness begin! * FAMILY-OWNED BUSINESSES ARE BEST! I know everyone says "go local," and avoid things (giant franchises, etc.) that rhyme with "Bosco," for such an install (as well as gear sharing the first name of a famous 1990s-era heavyweight boxer w/the last name of Lewis). I'll let you imagine how that "almost" experience went... The FAMILY-OWNED business that is GREEN PLANET not only saved me heaps, but educated me about what would truly be needed, to go the "heat pump" route (my initial intention). Given that I have ancient, single-pane windows, and am in a tricky financial spot (I can't really upgrade my insulation to seal up the home to make a heat pump be 100% effective, let alone, replace windows), I ended up going with a rock solid, super efficient, side discharge AC condenser (due to vertical clearance limitations) and a new furnace (more details below). Nice! * "OFFICE" ETTIQUETTE Anyone curious about GREEN PLANET's "office" coordination... I wrote to Jay through their website... he phoned within an hour... I explained as best I could (background / issues / wants), he made an appointment to come out on Tuesday... He was on time, inspected the premises and advised... and his entire crew was out here THE NEXT DAY, taking care of business. I've had no AC since last September. (Though I've survived in here for 4 years without it, ages ago.) And now I'm CHILLIN'!!!!! (For PARENTS: I also appreciate the fact that the crew were extra aware of their environment, given that my son was home from school, sick; they were always mindful of him, in their midst.) * SOME INSTALLATION SPECIFICS A 2-ton unit was installed, replacing/upgrading from basically what I had... and my existing ducting is still rock solid, which also saved me some cash (by not needing new ducting). A wiring upgrade to accommodate the newer, more powerful/efficient unit... and DONE deal! * THANK YOU! Giant high five to Jay, Nola, the install leader Andre, and GREEN PLANET's fabulous crew! Can't thank you enough for your kindness, thoroughness, and awareness of economics :-) Dale PS: Their T-shirts are the COOLEST! (Pun?)

We inherited an old 2009 Trane AC unit situated on a rooftop platform that wasn't up to code. After…read moresome research, we decided to switch to a ground-mounted heat pump. Green Planet provided a very competitive quote and handled the complex installation flawlessly. The Quote: They offered a high-quality product at a reasonable price, even with the added scope of electrical work. They also handled the permit process, which was essential for our rebates. Initial Inspection: We worked with Jay, who was professional and incredibly thorough. Unlike others, he took the time to properly inspect our electrical panel, furnace, and attic space. The Process: The project took about four days total over a two-week span (two days for installation, plus one afternoon each for the HERS and City inspections). Green Planet scheduled all inspections for us, making it stress-free. Heat Pump: We got the AC Pro XB Series heat pump. Specs met all rebate requirements for max refund. Payment: The schedule was fair--a $1k deposit, 50% upon delivery, and the final balance once the unit was installed. Paperwork: They provided all paperwork necessary for heat pump rebate. Green Planet was a great choice in term of product and service, and I'd highly recommend them to anyone looking for a heat pump installation.

I had four different companies come out to provide estimates for branching off an existing HVAC…read moresystem to add a new supply vent to an interior room. Robert handled the initial evaluation and was very thorough and professional. Although So Cal Air's estimate was not the cheapest, it was the most comprehensive--including drywall patching and painting--which ultimately made me feel the most comfortable moving forward with them. Other companies either tried to upsell me on a UV lighting system or suggested opening up the entire hallway ceiling, which felt excessive for the scope of work. After accepting the estimate, there was a delay of over two weeks before I was contacted to schedule the service, and I do think communication during that time could have been improved. That said, once they reached out, they were able to schedule the work for the very next day. Victor and his crew were professional and efficient, completing the job in about half a day. They left the space clean, and the overall quality of work met my expectations. Thank you, So Cal Air!

I would highly recommend So Cal Air to anyone looking for honest, thorough HVAC service. This is…read morethe second time I've used them this year, and I couldn't be happier. Last month, they fixed a relay switch that -- with some adjustments -- started working again. The technician noted the part in case the problem returned, rather than just replacing it outright. I was happy they saved me the unnecessary expense AND conveniently noted the part so I could just call if it happened again. Since that first visit went so well, I scheduled my yearly spring maintenance with them. I always have my HVAC serviced every March, but I can say that David (I think it was David) did a noticeably more thorough job than I've experienced in past years. This appointment reinforced what I already thought - that I would certainly reach out to So Cal Air for any HVAC issues I have again. Fingers crossed I don't though!

I want to start by saying that our initial experience with this company was great. The technician…read morethey sent to repair our washer and fridge fixed both issues without any problems and at a fair price. Because of that positive experience, we called them again when our dryer stopped working and our dishwasher flooded. The technician who came out the second time seemed knowledgeable, but he spent an unusual amount of time talking about his personal life, previous work history, and education. It felt as though he was trying to prove his qualifications. While it was a bit odd, we allowed him to assess the issues. He told us the dryer vent needed to be cleaned or replaced. Regarding the dishwasher, I don't recall the exact issue, but he performed a repair and quoted us prices for both jobs, which we agreed to. He returned on another day to complete the work. He went into our attic and told us he had cleaned something related to the dryer vent and that the dryer should work as long as we did not overload it. He also stated verbally AND IN THE RECEIPT that the dryer duct had been replaced. However, when we later moved and checked behind the dryer ourselves, we found a broken duct that had not been replaced. He mentioned that the dryer needed additional parts and said he would return to complete the repair. At that point, however, we were uncomfortable and did not want this specific technician to come back. To this day, the duct has still not been replaced. We called and requested a different technician. The new technician stated that the issue might be mechanical and that repairing the internal components would cost between $600-$800. For comparison, a brand-new LG 4.5 Cu. Ft. High Efficiency Stackable Front Load Dryer retails for $699.99. When I asked why I would spend that much on repairs instead of purchasing a new unit, I did not receive a clear explanation. I do not typically leave negative reviews, but this experience has been frustrating and disappointing. Based on our second experience, I cannot recommend this company. I am leaving two stars only because the first technician did a good job. Im sure there will be a comeback from the owner as well. That's ok; this was me and my girlfriends honest experiences and opinions.

Indeed, I appreciated Jesus's honest and straightforward assessment, as opposed to relying on guesswork to resolve the problem. At this point, I expect that we will likely be replacing our aging unit sometime this year....and, without a doubt, Manny's will be the company I call to do the job. Along with providing prompt and excellent service, the three technicians I've met from his company have all been very professional, courteous, and personable.
