If you want this fix - hire them.

Through the home warranty company Fidelity that sent them out. See photo of "fixed" A/C. If you want this kind of work, hire them. Guy was nice that came out, but exposed wires? I was told this is how they do it anytime a motor is changed. Not happy.

What a awesome experience with this company! The two technicians "Jesus &Gilbert " were very very knowledgeable and professional! And very respectful. They worked there A$$ off! I don't think they even took lunch!.. I'd definitely work with this company aga8n.thank you for making my AC upgrade a pleasure

Our central air conditioning broke during the heat wave. Our home warranty dispatched our claim to this company which I was weary of due to the numerous negative Yelp ratings. They did call me immediately to schedule an appointment for today between 9am-12pm and were friendly on the phone BUT they were a no show after we stayed home from work for the appointment. So loss of income and still hot as hell in my house. Thank you for nothing! We just got a call from the company stating they received a cancellation from our warranty company and they wanted to know if that was accurate because our appointment for the afternoon. Incorrect! It was scheduled for 9am-12pm.

After the technician "fixed" my Nest wiring (which was working fine before he came to fix the clicking that my furnace was doing.

Long story short, don't waste your time with this company. Finally, the appointment day comes and the technician didn't seem to find any problem with the furnace. Surprise. But then he walks over to my thermostat and tries to blame the issue on an incorrect install. I insist the problem happened before the Nest even went in. He insists on "fixing" the wiring (the wiring was replicated from how the previous thermostat was, a splitter from Rc to Rh). Less than 24hrs later and now I have a message on my thermostat saying the wiring is wrong and my heat won't work. Completely new issue. I call back the company to have them return and fix the issue the technician created. They tell me they can come out Monday... today is Thursday... you want me to go 5 days without heat? Talked to the manager. She asked if I needed my Nest repaired... NO. My nest wasn't the issue until Mario made it an issue. Ok, now they can come tomorrow to fix it. He's the only tech they have currently so I don't have a choice. Update: the owner Raul is great. But if you want to avoid the hassle and the argument then choose another company. This technician told me I'm lucky I don't live in Texas where people are dying, that I'm very negative, and left me with no heat. My boyfriend had to fix the shotty wiring job and we got our heater to work. We're having our home warranty switch service providers so we don't have to deal with this technician again.

These guys are a rip-off. They charged $825 to replace a part (zone board) that costs $140 in market. I will never use them again.

Air Synergy failed to perform any of those tasks causing us as the customer to be excluded from the program and rebates in the amount of $14,000. Air Synergy was directly responsible as an "Approved Contractor" for failing to perform the work prior to the start of the programs approved timeline.

I found this company based on all the wonderful Yelp reviews to tune up my old gas furnace- something I do every year before the winter season to ensure optimal maintenance. They came out and immediately refused to do the service citing possible asbestos tape. I asked how this was possible when the last 15 years I've gotten service and have even asked the contractors to do a visual inspection of my system. They weren't sure but said that another employee in the area can come look and give me an estimate for a new system. I thought this was shady and it turns out, I was 100% right. They came later that day and quoted me $26K for a new system not including subcontracting to get the asbestos removed (another $1500). I was told and shown pictures that there was evidence of the same tape inside the duct work. I was told I would get these pictures sent to me with along with the estimate but never received any of them. I got someone to come out and test a sample of said material for $100 which did come out positive for asbestos. However the only asbestos that presented any harm was the tape on the outside of the system. There was no asbestos inside but it was recommended that I do more expensive air testing since Perfect Star said I would not be able to use my heater without the asbestos getting released into the air. Not only was this stressful to hear right before the cold weather, but I was very concerned that over the last decade I had inadvertently put my whole families health in danger using this furnace. Meanwhile, Raymond Kinder texted me a few days later to find out if I was going to move forward with the new unit. I told him asbestos removal was my priority. His response via text was "if they remove asbestos, you will not be able to run that furnace as the gases will not be vented out properly." This was not true. After several weeks of not using my heater and exploring other options to deal with a pretend problem they created for me, I went with Air Quality Testing who charged $540 for an air test. $640 later along with having no use of my heater, I learned that there is no asbestos running through my air or ducts. Perfect Star literally lied to me in order to attempt to get me to drop nearly $30,000 on a new system. Stay away from this company! They do not deserve your business for lying to their customers.

I was a new homeowner in 2022 when Vic (the owner) and his company, Elite Comfort Systems, saved my…read morefamily (including the feline members) from sweltering in 100+F degree weather by diagnosing and repairing my air conditioner. Since then, they've serviced the almost 22 year old system at my home, nursing it along. With each semi-annual "check-up" service, they advised me on what I needed to do, and what could wait. When funds were tight, they suggested stopgaps to help. Because of this history, when Alex showed me that my heater was leeching carbon monoxide into my home, I knew I could trust him. While I waited for my appointment, I was provided with space heaters gratis. This IS an independently owned business, and they treat customers like family. Ozzy (Osvaldo) and Anthony installed a new heat pump and air conditioner for me last week. They were at my home three days. Not only were they professional, friendly, and polite, they were also respectful of my home--taking time EVERY day to cover my carpeted areas, covering their boots as they came into and exited the house, and cleaning up any installation debris before they left each day. Ozzy and Anthony discovered that a part of the original system was not going to work as efficiently with the new system (the dampers) given the difference in the size. Ozzy explained the difference to me, noted the cost, and the pros and cons. He didn't pressure me to upgrade the items but he made sure I had enough information to make a decision. At the end of the installation, Ozzy took the time to show me how to use the new digital thermostat controls and gave me tips on how to use the system economically. He provided me information on how to follow up if there were ever any problems. Just like other times, Vic called a few days later to see how things were going (I missed the call, but still...so so kind and thoughtful). It's a lot of money to replace your entire HVAC system, no matter which company you use, but hiring one where you know you can trust the company. Simply put, you'll never have worries about trusting Elite Comfort Systems.
