We needed to replace our heater and air conditioning system. They explained all the choices, prices and how long everything would take. They were so easy to work with and listened to our concerns. I would recommend them to anyone. Brenda J, read more

Yerevan, the owner of Camino Air and his team are outstanding. Our experience was fantastic from the time Yerevan inspected our property, provided the estimate, helped with the Electrical Panel upgrade and also navigate the HOA approval process. I was very happy with the furnace replacement and the addition of AC to our home. I would highly recommend him and his business!! read more

I wanted to comment on a great experience I just had with Camino. They installed a complete A/C replacement four years ago. The other day( in recent heat spell) unit stopped working. I called and they were able to get someone here quickly and diagnose problem and order part. They also brought me a temporary A/C unit in the interim. ( very much appreciated) They really stepped it up a notch to get me back up and running in a short period of time, and the motor was under warranty. Parts fail but standing behind your work means everything. Thank you Camino air and I will surely recommend you to others needing reliable service. read more

We went through several service providers with regards to our HVAC issues without much success. Most would request that there be a ~$100 fee for the first guy to come out and analyze the issue.. then another person to come quote.. and most of the answers we got ranged from "replace the whole system" to "sorry we're too busy for you.. can you call back in 3 months". After a few folks coming out.. we tried to endure without our HVAC system.. went through a cold winter with space heaters and started to feel the heat of summer. Finally during this early COVID period.. there was a week when it was just way too hot.. so we decided to call Camino Air on whim. Yerevan intercepted my call after hours.. and was very kind and professional. He requested that I email him with some additional information so that when he sent out his first technician.. they wouldn't have to rehash the same drama we had already been through. I felt that was very intuitive and a good idea. He was able to have someone out to us within a few days of my telephone call. He must have sent the best guy on his team: Zach Hamilton, General Manager. What a great guy. My husband felt that Zach "really knew his sh!t" (husband's words) and quickly identified the key issue to what was holding up the system. The two guys were having fun out there to problem solve the issue and I could hear them laughing like chums. Zach helped reconnect some doohikey (husband tried to explain it to me but we'll just call it a doohikey), unclogged the coolant system for the ac unit outside, and presto.. there was air. He charged a nominal service fee and really left good feelings through his service. My husband (who is very much a .. let me figure it out myself guy) tacked Zach's business card to his board (and let me tell you... that's reserved for the few folks he is willing to call for service help). We had a great experience and highly recommend Camino Air for the decent price, quick scheduling, and strong communication. It's a small humble family business with a few stellar guys who excel in their trade. We appreciate the service and are happy to have our HVAC working for the unknown summer months ahead. Thanks Zach and Yerevan! read more

Our experience with Camino Air was outstanding! The office staff was very friendly and helpful. The lead installer, Zack came out to our home to give us 3 different options to choose from, to replace our 30 year old HVAC system. He followed up with a call to see if we had any questions to help us make a final decision. Zack, Shaun and Stephen did an awesome job! They went above and beyond with the installation. They even vacuumed our entire house after the clean-up. When the job was completed, we received a thank you email from the owner/CEO, Mr. Ohannessian. I would highly recommend Camino Air for all your HVAC purchases and services. You cannot go wrong! read more

I would like to start off by saying I had my AC unit installed 3 years ago. I still rave ... the best choice was getting recommended to Camino Air After initial estimate request, Zach came over. He looked all over the house and pointed out which windows were facing the sun in the morning and afternoon. The question he posed was "how cold do you and your wife want this house when outside is 90". The wife replied "like Alaska in the winter!" This was key as a neighbor was sold a smaller AC (chose the cheapest bid) and even when unit is running 24/7 they never are able to cool the house below 78-80. Zach and his crew did a fantastic installation and we love our ecobee and lil bee. A year after we had a massive water break and water leaked all over our new AC unit. Zach personally came with his crew, removed the AC unit and after all the repairs and dry out they put it back together to perfection. It's been almost two years and not a problem. Costs: they are not the cheapest (those cheapest will not make sure your vents are right and your AC unit is large enough to cool you). They are priced normally. This company does not need to advertise because of "word of mouth". read more

I have lived in my home for about 20 years and in San Diego for more than 35 years and in the area I'm in, needing air conditioning has never been an issue except for maybe a few weeks out of the year. But in the past 5 years or more, the heat and humidity have become excessive and last far beyond a few weeks. Last year the heat was particularly brutal and I vowed this year to have air conditioning installed in my home. I even ran into a someone installing A/C at a neighbors house and they gave me a quick quote so I had a basic idea of what it was going to cost me. A year has passed and I started feeling the heat coming and decided to get this done before it gets too bad and everyone is backed up doing installations. I did some research online regarding the reliability of the different manufacturers and came to a decision about the brand I wanted, but still knew there was much I didn't know about A/C. Fortunately, when my home was built, it was built for central air conditioning. They just didn't install the units so it seemed like it would be a relatively easy job getting it installed once I found a company to do the work. I initially called the company I met last year doing the installation in my neighborhood. But after having them come to my house, I just didn't have a good feeling with them so I shopped around a bit more until I found Camino Air. For starters, they were very accommodating with their scheduling. My work schedule can be a bit unpredictable but they were very understanding when it came to setting up my home consultation. The owner, Yerevan, came out for the initial visit and unlike other companies, he spent a great deal of time explaining what would work best for my home and answered all of my questions. He was in no rush and seemed to really take his time to make sure I understood everything. Although it was late in the day, he emailed me an estimate that evening and even answered emails over the weekend for questions I had. A few days later, he came out with his General Manager, Zach, to once again look over everything in my house to make sure everything would work out fine and we scheduled an installation date for a few days later. The day of the installation, they arrived promptly as scheduled. I work in surgery and I would say they are every bit as organized and professional as the best OR team I have worked with. Each had their respective job to do and they went about it without delay. I was amazed they were able to get the entire job completed in less than a day. It did require cutting a couple of new holes in the dry wall, but when they were finished and left my home, I would never have even known they were there if it weren't for the cool air I was now feeling in my home. They cleaned up every area where they were doing work and the place was spotless when they were finished. When they were done, they showed me how it all operated and didn't leave until I could demonstrate how to use it. They even helped download the app to my iPhone so I can control the system from anywhere with my phone. Yerevan told me "we aren't the cheapest" but when it comes to something this big in my home and how it will affect my life (being comfortable versus being miserable), again I liken it to surgery and I don't want the cheapest. But as far as price, I really think they are in line with just about any other company based upon the quote I received from another air conditioning business. And if they are a little more (and I stress "if") given the incredible and personal customer service they provide, I don't know why you would choose anyone else. Zack had two technicians with him on the installation day and they too were fantastic! Extremely hard working, friendly, courteous and overall very good people; I'm sorry I don't remember their names but they deserve credit as well for the great job installing my new air conditioning. It's a great investment for my home and I know this summer, no matter the heat or humidity, I will be comfortable. If this is the year you are considering getting A/C installed, do yourself a favor and call Camino Air. Thank you again Camino Air! read more

We just had Camino Air install a Heat pump, furnace unit and from the first contact with the owner Yerevan Ohannessian and the completion of the work, I could not say enough about the attention to detail and professionalism of his crew. Good job and I will recommend you to my friends and neighbors. read more

I HIGHLY recommend camino air!! They are the BEST OF THE BEST!!! We moved into a house without AC and have barely been surviving in this heat wave. I'm pregnant and with a baby on the way and needed to rip the band aid off and get AC for the home. I have heard of nightmare stories about AC companies and people getting ripped off/ unprofessional crew arriving to install. I called Camino air based on a friend who highly recommended them and they surpassed my expectations. Yerevan showed up the same day I called him and gave me an honest estimate. Since I'm barely surviving in this heat they went above and beyond to accommodate me and install on an early date... THANK YOU! Zack and his team showed up for install and were efficient and cleaned everything up. The quality of work is impeccable and our house feels like a dream now. The quality of products they use are reliable and top of line: They were all friendly and amazing and you will be a fool to call anyone else but Camino Air! read more

If I could give Camino Air another star, I would. They were actually superb in everything: from first contact to organizing the permit afterwards. I purchased and had installed two HVAC systems (one for upstairs and one for downstairs). I couldn't have had a better experience. It's a small company compared to some of the others and hard to choose between this and a large company, which was recommended by a neighbor. Both had nearly identical quotes and either may have been fine; however, a spec contractor I know recommended Camino Air. I am thrilled with the equipment and the personal attention I received. The job was done in 1-1/2 days and my house was spotless when they left. If you're comparing quotes, I think you'll find most companies about the same. If you would like someone always available by phone to respond to your questions and any concerns, check out Camino Air. By the way, I live in Carmel Valley by Del Mar. Camino Air, although located in Poway, isn't limited to the Poway area. read more

I can't thank much enough for Yerevan on his skills and expertise. When others change a hefty service fee to just to come out to give a free estimate, Yerevan provided really good tips regarding my AC unit and capacitor that I had problem with. I also got more tips on how to keep it running and maintaining. Thank you Camino Air Conditioning!!! read more

After my son recently purchased his first home built in 1999, he discovered the air condensing units were more noisy than he realized and they were right outside the wall of his office. It turned out they were at the end of their life expectancy and rusting out on the bottom from a leaking sprinkler system which was repaired. We reviewed online heating & air conditioning HVAC systems and decided on Carrier. His house needed separate upstairs and downstairs systems and the 3 estimates for the combined systems were close and we found it was important to pay attention to the estimate's details which played a part in our decision. After 3 interviews we were most impressed with Gen Mgr Zack of Camino Air who sat down with us and explained everything in detail and then answered all of our questions. He wasn't just the sales person but worked and supervised the men who all wore masks and bootys in the house. It took 2 days to complete the installation of 2 new Carrier Performance Multipoise 90,000 BTU two stage variable speed furnaces with new supply & return vents, Ecobee thermostats and condensers. Zack said the "two stage" 3 & 4 ton 17 Seer air condensing units on vibration reducing pads with a 10 yr warranty outside would be quiet and they are!! The customer service was outstanding !! read more

Amazing customer service, great experience. They were professional, good about giving us options, encouraged us to get quotes. Yerevan was extremely friendly and didn't try to rush me off the phone. Zach and team did the install, and they did a wonderful job and made sure to explain everything to us at the end, and explained maintenance and best practices. They installed a smart thermostat and was willing to help us understand how the thermostat worked and even offered to help us with the app install. This company really cares about their customer, and they have great attention to detail. We really enjoyed working with Camino. read more

We have separate downstairs and upstairs systems that were replaced by Camino Air earlier this week. So far, so good - we're really liking the Ecobee thermostats - but, of course, the systems haven't been tested yet as the weather has been mild. However, I can already say that both systems are much, much quieter than the ones they replaced. We had four quotes before choosing Camino. Theirs was easily the most thorough - including new vents and returns, which the other quotes didn't even address. (It's really nice that everything is new and clean!) They gave us quotes on four systems - 14 SEER, one-stage Payne, 16 SEER, one-stage Rheem, 17 SEER, two-stage Rheem, and 17 SEER two-stage Carrier. We choose the Carrier because we're really embracing energy efficiency. (We're also going solar next week!) Of the equivalent systems for which we had quotes, Camino was neither the lowest, nor the highest. Installation was over three days - two 1/2 days, I guess. Clean up at the end of each day was excellent. Also, the technicians were very considerate as they worked. They fixed a known issued with the duct work in the upstairs system. And I was given a thorough tutorial on how to maintain the systems at the end. read more

Zack and the expert HVAC team at Camino Air recently added dual AC units to the forced air heating system they installed when we first built our Solana Beach home in 2011. I was thrilled to see Zack return 11 years later to install the AC units. All of the work and Carrier systems Zack and crew installed shows the highest attention to quality and care to seamlessly fit the systems into limited spaces. The craftsmanship on both systems is so good it's the first thing I show everybody when they come to our house! read more

Camino Air and Zack are awesome! I have used them a few times for my business and now my home. This company is on time and reliable. I feel there prices are reasonable and the quality of work is top notch!! I trust that they are only doing the work that needs to be done and doing it right. They don't try and sell you on things that do not need repair or replacement. Thanks everyone at Camino Air ! read more

PROFESSIONAL, AMAZING and AWESOME. BEST of THE BEST in TOWN and San Diego County. You really have to be crazy not to use their service. Yerevan, Zack and his team is honest. They really take their time explaining everything and they don't pressure you on making any decisions right then and there. They go above and beyond answering your questions. Start to finish JOB is done to the PERFECTION. As long as I am alive and breathtaking I will ALWAYS call them. I am very LOYAL. I wish I can give them more then FIVE STARS they TOTALLY DESERVE more than FIVE STARS. Yeahhhhhhh Go CAMINO AIR. read more

We just had a new heating and AC unit installed by CaminoAir and it was an AMAZING experience from start to finish! After I called Zack Hamilton was out to our home a couple of days later. We loved his professionalism, knowledge & the quote was very reasonable. We had the installation appointment set up for the very next week. The job took 2 days & Zack and Pepe showed up on time every single day. They laid down floor coverings, kept the house as clean as they could considering they were working in tight crawl spaces & in the attic. They also cleaned up every night before they left for the day. (Shout out to Zack and Pepe). I highly recommend CaminoAir. Give them a call, you won't be disappointed! read more

My wife and I purchased a home earlier this year in Scripps Ranch that only had forced heat but had never had AC installed. We figured we would try to wait through the summer and see if AC was really going to be necessary, assuming it wouldn't get too hot since the previous owners never seemed to need it. Boy were we wrong! Summer was brutal and we decided to start looking at AC installers. I called a total 4 companies I found on Yelp since I knew this would probably be pretty pricey. I got a wide range of prices and opinions from different installers since we had a challenging location for the condenser unit. The last company I called was Camino, which was actually recommended to my wife by her co-worker. The owner came by personally to give an estimate and I was shocked at how good his pricing was. He was very knowledgeable and came up with some solutions that the other companies hadn't looked at. Sometimes I can be a bit weary if a company prices lower because you may not get a quality job, but I decided to go with them anyways and we are so glad we did. All the workers showed up on time and by the end of the day we had ice cold AC pumping throughout the house. The main thing I noticed was the quality of the install. Everything was very professional and cleanly done and so far the unit has been a lifesaver and working great. Highly recommend these guys. read more

Zack Hamilton and Pepe did a Fabulous job repairing our air conditioner. They were professional and knowledgable in their craft. I was so impressed with the service and very fair price, that I would recommend Camino Air to anyone that needs honest, fair and quality service with Integrity. I will always call Zack for any heating and air repairs in the future! Thank you Camino Air Condition for the peace of mind- and nice cool air flowing in our house! read more

What a great company! I used them to install a pair of Nest thermostats for my home. The owner of the company came to install it. One went smoothly. The other took more time due to faulty wiring from a previous vendor. Instead of leaving me high end dry, the owner sent another team of techs (Zach and Alex) to continue to troubleshoot it. They fixed it the right way instead of doing a patch work job like the previous vendor. Not only that, the owner followed up personally to make sure everything was ok even though it wasn't their fault to begin with. I'm blown away. Please use this company for all your HVAC needs! read more

Thank you Camino! Our AC unit had to be moved for the addition we are making to our home. Yerevan and his team came out and reconnected everything and our unit is up and running great again! I will certainly contact Camino for all my future HVAC needs! read more

Update - new system in and Zack and team are simply amazing. You would be CRAZY to go with anyone else!! Camino air is all you need. My AC unit died just prior to the first round of excessive heat we've had in Poway in late July. I had several quotes Finally - enter Zack. Zack has a look said he could do the larger system with no repiping, replace the old duct work, furnace, etc and here is why he gets my vote - he took the time to put a jumpstart on my compressor that has kept it running through more 100 degree days than I can count. He went above and beyond and has made a huge difference for us. These guys have integrity, they are honest, they come highly recommended and do great work. Please use them for any and all HVAC work you may need read more

Great company. Great service. Zack was prompt, professional and honest. My 18 year old system, for now, is in great shape. In these uncertain times a tremendous relief. I thought I was going to need to replace. Highly recommend!! read more

I live next door to a home which was receiving service from this company. One of their drivers, who was driving a Ford F-250 was parked three feet into my driveway. I called the company about this. The driver did move, but after he moved the truck he made a comment to another worker that "he didn't want anyone to cry." This is certainly not the sort of attitude which anyone who represents a company should have, and it certainly is not the sort of image that another potential customer should be seeing, and certainly not be receiving. I called again and spoke to the same person as before, and he apologised and said he would mention it "to the manager." Needless to say I am less than impressed with their contractors. read more

This company is INCREDIBLE. They are quick to respond, very prompt with arrival times and extremely honest. We have used them now twice and will continue to use them for all of our HVAC needs. You will not find a more reputable and trustworthy company. read more

AMAZING service. My husband and I own Postal Annex here in the Vons shopping center and we are responsible for our own A/C unit. It was running hot this morning and the building maintenance referred us to Camino.. I actually was lucky enough to get help within a couple hours. Zack was absolutely incredible. The building being so dang old it is rotted but Zack was my hero and able to get it running and I am happy happy happy girl. Thank you Zack. I HIGHLY recommend any business, homeowner to please call them. Professional and a good attitude. read more

Air Conditioning Repair. About a month ago our central air blew up, literally. Did some home work on HVAC system and contacted 3 contractors, happy with two, selected Camino Air in Poway. Spoke at length via phone with Yeravan who happens to be the owner - he tends to answer his phone so it is an easy contact him. He came out, gave me a very fair price - and I emphasize very. Zach leads the install group, he came out for a visit beforehand. I originally planned (sight unseen) to have the ducts replaced, he took a look and said it just need a fix in one location, saved me just under $1K so I upgraded the system. Zach, Pepe and Mike were in and out in a day, all friendly folks. Very neat. 2 minor items - actually bonus throw ins - needed further attention and Yeravan sent Pepe back 2x with no push-back. I don't know Yervan personally but I think that it is important to do a shout to a small business that really wants to do a good job...and I don't receive a gratuity for this posting. read more

My very old a/c system finally needed to be replaced, and after much shopping around I chose to go with Camino Air. They were friendly and professional, reasonably priced, and genuinely concerned about providing me with a system that would meet my needs. Didn't try to sell me stuff I didn't need and explained everything clearly. It's been about 2 1/2 months since install and I'm so happy with my choice! I love my new a/c!! We've had multiple heat waves and my whole house has been cool and comfortable. They replaced my system and ducts and were able to cool rooms that had never been cooled before! Highly recommend Camino Air Conditioning! read more

We have used Camino for over 10 years. They did the entire install of 8 units in a very complicated job when I had our home built. They have serviced and maintained the system promptly and professionally since. I had them install two new AC units in my daughters new home. They service my mother in laws older system. Their quotes have always been fair and the quality of their work has always been top notch!! read more

We were referred to Camino Air by someone we met & after 3 other estimates, chose them to install central heat furnace. They were by far the best priced, honest, excellent work, quick, very amicable, highly recommend! The owner came out on the job to our house with a couple of technicians; you can tell he really cares about his business and customers! read more

Stay away from this company!!.. We've had them for 15 yrs, was told we needed to replace our A/C and furnace.. upon our maintenance call, we were told that the existing unit, which they had installed, was set on LOW.. Really?.. We have now been told, by another company, we have asbestos in the insullation, NEVER told this by Camino Air. GREAT!!. so NOW, we are having it ALL replaced, but I'm most upset that they never told us about the insulation.. Have any company check your ducts and duct work in your attic. This is neglect and just incredible.. EXTREMELY unhappy with this company. read more
