We just had a new central air-conditioning unit installed by Econo Air and it was a terrific experience. The owner, Chris, is very straightforward, personable, and easy to deal with. He sold and installed a new Trane unit, and did so at considerably less cost than any of the other contractors we interviewed. He and his crew arrived promptly on the day they said they would, and got the job done on schedule. Chris and his crew were all very courteous and professional throughout the workday. Additionally, they were very neat and respectful of our property. In fact, not only did they clean up after themselves, they found debris in the attic from a prior contractor, and without being asked, they hauled it all out of the attic, cut it up, and placed it on the street for our garbage pick up. Finally, the new unit is working great and we are very happy with it. We were extremely satisfied with the entire experience and highly recommend Econo Air. read more

This company is the best! Owners are so helpful, good people and we're great helps to us in a pinch. Could not be more grateful to Chris and his wife. Rare qualities. Thank you! read more

I highly recommend Econo Air Conditioning & Heating to anyone looking for HVAC servicing! I don't write reviews often, but Econo Air has impressed me so much that I felt compelled to write this. Some background: I bought an old home in 2022 and have had issues with the AC not working reliably since the start - randomly stopping, drain pan filling up with water, etc. Before Econo Air, I've had 3 HVAC technicians from different companies inspect my AC setup. All of them were able to identify that the air handler in the attic was not installed very well, but none of them gave me much confidence that they fixed my problem(spoiler: they didn't). This year, my living room ceiling started to leak water...once again I had to try to find an HVAC company that I can count on without leaving me feeling like I've been ripped off. I called about 5 different companies, and most of them gave me the response I've come to expect - no/vague/unreasonable cost estimates and not being super helpful otherwise. The only exception was Econo Air. I spoke with Angela who was extremely knowledgeable and empathetic. She made me feel valued as a human being, not just another source of revenue. She took the time to understand my issue, provided fair and transparent pricing, and gave me advice on things I can do in the meantime. I really cannot overstate how awesome Angela is! It was really refreshing for a change, and I wish all companies were like this. I decided to give Econo Air a shot, and I'm so glad I did! They sent Ricardo who's very polite, funny and knowledgeable. He found out that my condensate drain line was not installed well and ended up decoupling, causing the water to pool in my ceiling instead of flowing outside. Ricardo fixed this, but upon checking a week later I found that my drain pan was still full of water. I reported this to Econo Air and to their credit, they sent Ricardo over again that same day, free of charge. It turns out that my p-trap was also improperly installed, which Ricardo missed the first time. He fixed the p-trap and it's been a day since then. My AC finally appears to be working properly and there's no more water issues. Even though they did not fully fix the issue on the first visit, how Econo Air handled this situation shows me that they really stand behind their work and care about their customers. I know plenty of companies who would have charged me again on the second visit "because reasons". I truly feel like I have found a gem in Econo Air amongst a sea of mediocre HVAC companies. Needless to say, I will be contacting them in the future for all of my HVAC needs. read more

I want to give a huge shotout to Chris & Crew from Econo Air Conditioning & Heating. I shopped around for multiple quotes on a full central air conditioning install on a CAPE style home. Many suggested mini split units upstairs (which I did not want) but they were pushing it on me making it seem like I had no choice. I believe that's because it's a tough job that no one really wanted to do. I got a few quotes and the prices were astronomical. Finally, I was recommended Chris from ECONO Air by a friend. Chris came and said he could do exactly what I wanted for a fraction of the price others were looking to charge me. It almost seemed to good to be true. I decided to go with Chris and crew. They came in with a team of 5 guys and had the entire job done in 2 days! They made ZERO mess, I was expecting a huge mess since they needed to cut into PLASTER to install the vents. There was no damage to my ceiling or walls either! I was so impressed! They were polite, professional, and kind! The air conditioning system is working fantastic! The ENTIRE house is cool and comfortable. Chris is a master at his trade. I would never use anyone else for my HVAC needs.

The best. Call Chris and you will get clarity and honesty from this family owned business.

We recently hired Econo Air to install a new A/C system that was 20+ years old. From the day I met Chris (owner), dealing with Angela (office manager) to Omar (the crew leader) ......... everything went extremely smooth. The install was meticulously planned and any questions we had were immediately answered. The day of the job , Chris and his team showed up punctually at 8;30am and were completely finished the same afternoon by 4:30. They kept their entire work area to a small hallway inside our home to access the attic. Our house looked just as clean as when they arrived. Truly AMAZING company and would highly recommend them!

See all

I cannot speak highly enough of Chris, and his entire company. They did a great, new complete A/C installation, soup to nuts; clean, properly done, proper sizing, about 5 years ago, at a literal 40% savings compared to a local "name" company. Yep, $10k+++ estimate from a competitor, became $6k all-in, EVERYTHING new, for absolutely equivalent equipment. No games, no "extras", and no being taken advantage of. Just a good, decent, nice, talented guy, with fair prices and high-quality workers, whom are also very nice people. Fast forward 5 years, my roofer put a nail in the coolant line on the hottest week of the year. Chris to the rescue, on a hot, humid, long, holiday weekend, which I'm sure he'd have probably preferred to have enjoyed with his family, but instead, he felt for us, and took care of everything (and right, the first time!). He could have made a killing on us, but he cut us a big-time break, and probably barely profited from helping us out of a huge jam. He could have justified charging much more, but he didn't, because Chris has a heart, a lovely family, and is just one of "those good guys", who believes in quality work, a fair price, and is a true gentleman. Five stars all the way! read more

Needing to replace my central air system I called around a few places for quotes. Chris got back to me right away, was very upfront about the pros and cons of the different AC systems available and quoted very fair pricing. He and his crew arrived promptly on the day scheduled for the AC and air handling unit replacement. They worked cleanly and went above and beyond just the basic replacement of my old system and improved the setup I had previously. read more

Replaced Central Air system. My home was built in 1952, Chris and his team of skilled craftsman replaced all the duct work, Air handler, and condenser outside. Our home is now cool, dry and comfortable. I'm so glad Chris has the kind and responsive Angela(the brains of the operation) working with him. I recomend them to my friends and clients. I KNOW that some of these reviews are posted by crooks, competition? Chris has NEVER sold anyone used equipment, his reputation is golden because he earns it, working 6-7 days a week for the past 30? Years. Try it some time, not fun. Best Regards, John S. read more

My condenser broke down during a recent heat wave. Chris answered the call right away and when he determined it had to be replaced he had a new one installed in 48 hours. His team was highly professional and the price was right. I highly recommend them. read more

I just used Chris from Econo-Air to replace my old unit. He came highly recommended by many others on Nextdoor and I'm glad I used him. Econo-air is not one of those big companies with a huge overhead and office personnel (cost which gets passed on to you). It's just him, his lovely office assistant, Angela, and his hard-working crew. I called 3 other a/c companies and found Chris to be the most reasonable, reliable, and knowledgeable. And he's one of those ppl, if any future problems arise, he'll be sure to fix and address any issues bc he's old school, a man of integrity. You get a good feel from him the moment you meet him. Just a really nice guy and courteous crew. Highly recommend him! read more

Our AC blower stopped working. Called Chris and left a message. He got back to me the same day and came to trouble shoot the problem. He replaced a part and got it running in a few minutes. I highly recommend Econo Air, Chris is very professional and customer friendly! read more

My AC unit broke and the owner came to check it within a few hours. Unfortunately it needed to be replaced (it was 18 years old). It was replaced the next week. Workers were very nice, knowledgeable and extremely neat. The tech in charge had put our new heating unit in a couple of years ago. I highly recommend them. read more

I found this company through reveiws, I called a few other companies before them, their pricing was competitve but most of call, Chris offered to bring his crew same day for an install. We were without AC since our compressor failed for almsot 5 days during the heart of the summer. I am greatful they were able to come so quickly. They did a good job and all is well, they sell TRANE AC units. I would recommend them, thank you read more

I can't imagine why anyone would use any other company. Not only did they do an amazing job of our install but the design and the sizing of the unit was absolutely perfect. As Chris says, our problem in Long Island is humidity not heat so for that you need a slightly undersized unit so that it chills the air slowly enough to remove the moisture. They were the fourth contractor we tried and the only one to point this out. All the others were just interested in selling us their highest priced unit. That would explain why Econo Air's price was half that of any of the others. read more

Right from the start (when I spoke to Angela in their office), I knew that Econoaire was the company to use when I had to replace my central air conditioning unit. Chris, the owner, was a true gentleman and as good as his word with everything he said they would do. He not only gave me a quote that was one of the lowest I received, but also told me what I needed, and what to look out for, even if I didn't go with him. The day of the installation, Andrew arrived early and got to work right away. An hour later, which was their starting time, the rest of the crew showed up and everyone began their tasks. The work they did was meticulous, with tarps on all the floors and even on the furniture in the room where the attic stairway was. As a matter of fact, when they finished installing the air handler in my attic, the attic was cleaner than it ever was. About four hours after they arrived, my ac was installed, I was shown what they had done and how everything worked, the old unit was put in their truck and I had my new ac up and running! That was on a Friday and Chris called me up the next work day to make sure that everything was good and ask if I had any questions. I wish every company was such a pleasure to deal with. If I could give them six stars, I would have. Highly recommended! read more

My family and friends have been using Chris and his awesome team for almost 10 years. Anytime I have needed assistance I always get a call back in a timely manor ,that's so important when your air is not working. They always work around my schedule and show up on time . Chris and his team are so knowledgeable , and kind. They treat your home with respect. I have recommended Chris to many times to count with all the same reviews as mine . Also a big shout Angela who will schedule your appointment and take good care of you as well. read more

You get what you pay for. I initially got what I thought was a great deal from Chris, but after a couple of years, the whole system started having problems and every season, just more and more problems. After 5 years, this guy tells me to put in another system! Sure, every 5 years, I'll just install yet another central AC system. This guy is the biggest crook in two shoes. He makes you think you're getting the deal of a lifetime, but he installs the product with issues right from the get-go. DO NOT TRUST THIS GUY. He's one of the biggest shysters I've ever seen. And, when the system breaks down, good luck getting ahold of him! Do yourself a favor, even if it does cost a few more bucks, go with another AC contractor. This guy is the worst and in the long run, you'll pay out way more than you would've if you spent a bit more on the upfront installation. read more

This is a review of the company itself, rather than a particular service, as I have not yet received service from the company. This review is specifically about Angela, and the single greatest customer service interaction I've ever experienced. I live too far away from Econo Air for it to make sense for my wife and I to use them as our service, but Angela made sure I was informed about everything I needed to know about my unit and what to look out for from other providers. As a first time home owner, this knowledge is worth more than anything else they could have offered me. She was polite, knowledgeable, kind, and even offered pity laughter at my jokes when I expressed how sad I was when I couldn't use them. If their AC service is as great as Angela's customer service is, they're very easily the greatest AC service on the island. read more

Econo Air did a fantastic job installing AC throughout my entire house! Both the owner Chris and the whole crew were wonderful to work with. Very professional and knowledgeable. I highly recommend. read more

Chris was great to deal with. He came over quickly for an estimate for a new hvac system, and installed it the following week. Showed up exactly on time, and even put in a new thermostat, and offered to go to store to buy me a filter for dehumidifier, which wasn't part of the job. His price was 30% less than the company I had a service contract with, and which I had been dealing with for 7 years. Would enthusiastically recommend Chris to anyone! read more

I purchased a system from Chris and have had nothing but problems with it. Most recently my unit broke down during a heatwave, and Chris offered no help whatsoever. This company is not reliable, and when Chris shows up, he'll spend 5 minutes and not explain what's going on with the central air system. He doesn't return calls either. I had to call in other technicians and it was found out that the install was a botched job and the unit was the wrong one for my home. I am so disgusted by this company now, will never use them again, and DO NOT recommend this company at all. read more

Our experience with Econo Air has been great, start to finish. Chris was at my house the same day I first contacted them for a quote for installing central air in my home. They installed central air conditioning in our home today and we couldn't be more thrilled. They were the most competitively priced of all the companies we contacted and the most professional. An overall positive experience. read more

Called Chris at Econo Air for a new system in my condo in Great Neck. He did an excellent job on the installation and his price was favorable. I will use him again. read more

I had a great experience with Econo Air. My grandomther's central AC hadn't been used in years and it wouldn't start. Chris showed up and figured out it was because the thermostat was set up wrong. Then he found that the unit was out of freon. He fixed the thermostat and refilled the freon for a very reasonable price. We chatted and shared stories about Italy and Greece. Nice guy and great service. read more

Chris at EconoAit is outstanding! Their team is professional and his prices are reasonable! Chris knows the AC units inside and out! They installed a new unit in our house in one day. They are reliable as we had to replace another unit last year. If you need them he comes right away! Would definitely recommend his business! read more
