    Joshua L. came out to our home in Murrieta and thoroughly inspected our aging air conditioner unit…read more He provided a clear diagnosis of the issues (refrigerant leak and control problems) and walked us through practical solutions. He was completely honest, extremely helpful, and took the time to explain everything in easy-to-understand terms without any pressure. Joshua offered several repair and replacement options with transparent pricing, which helped us make an informed decision that fits our needs and budget. I highly recommend Joshua and the entire team at Integrity Air and Heating & Cooling. Professional, trustworthy, and customer-focused, exactly what you want when dealing with HVAC issues.

    I rarely write negative reviews, but I felt compelled to share this experience so others can make…read morean informed decision. The fan on our outdoor A/C condenser stopped spinning. After doing some research and consulting ChatGPT to better understand the symptoms, I concluded that the most likely cause was a failed dual-run capacitor. I also watched several YouTube videos showing that replacing the capacitor is generally a relatively simple repair. Although I considered replacing it myself, I decided it would be better to pay a reputable HVAC company to confirm the diagnosis and perform the repair. My wife spoke with a friend who highly recommended Integrity, describing the company as honest and trustworthy. Based on that recommendation and the company's excellent reviews, I scheduled a service call and agreed to pay the $125 diagnostic fee. The technician, Josh, arrived, and I explained that the condenser was operating but the fan was not spinning. I also told him that I suspected the capacitor had failed. Josh retrieved a test capacitor from his truck, disconnected the leads from the existing capacitor, and connected them to his test part. The entire process took about ten minutes. When he restored power, the condenser fan immediately began spinning. At that point, I was genuinely impressed. His quick test appeared to confirm exactly what I had suspected: the capacitor had failed. Since replacement capacitors generally retail for around $20, I assumed the repair would involve installing a new capacitor, with a reasonable markup for the part, labor, expertise, and company overhead. Instead, Josh listened to the fan and commented that it did not sound very good and appeared to wobble slightly. He then returned to his truck to prepare several repair options. He remained in the truck for what seemed like an unusually long time for what I believed was a straightforward capacitor replacement. Eventually, I walked out and told him that the amount of time being spent preparing a plan made me concerned that this was about to become a lengthy and expensive repair. I explained that this was not what I was looking for. Josh said he would be finished in a few minutes, so I returned to wait. When he came back, the first option he presented was to replace the capacitor for approximately **$1,000**. He then began describing another option that included replacing the condenser fan motor. That repair would have added approximately **another $1,300-$1,600** to the bill, on top of the capacitor repair. At that point, I stopped him. I told him that I had researched the capacitor and understood it to be a part costing approximately $20. I directly asked whether I was mistaken in understanding that I was being quoted $1,000 to replace a roughly $20 part. Josh responded by asking whether I had gotten that information from ChatGPT. I told him that I could not justify spending $1,000 to replace such an inexpensive part, even allowing for labor, expertise, insurance, overhead, and a reasonable profit. At that point, the proposed price changed. Josh explained that the original estimate involved a higher-quality or premium part. He said that if I wanted a standard capacitor instead, the repair would cost approximately **$500**, with the $125 diagnostic fee applied toward that amount. Feeling somewhat relieved that the price had dropped from $1,000, I tentatively agreed. Josh then went to his truck to retrieve the standard capacitor. Fortunately for me, he did not have one available. We therefore scheduled a return visit for the following Monday. After Josh left, I replayed the entire interaction and became increasingly uncomfortable with how the visit had unfolded. The test capacitor had already demonstrated that replacing the failed capacitor allowed the fan to operate. Yet the initial proposal was approximately $1,000 for the capacitor replacement, followed by a substantially lower price only after I challenged the estimate. I also looked up replacement fan motors compatible with my condenser and found them listed on Amazon for approximately **$100-$300**. I understand that retail part prices do not include diagnosis, professional installation, warranties, company expenses, or profit. However, that comparison made the proposed additional charge of $1,300-$1,600 for the fan-motor replacement even more difficult for me to understand. Rather than wait until Monday, I went to Home Depot and purchased the correct capacitor for **$21**. After reviewing the replacement procedure again, I installed it myself in approximately ten minutes. The condenser fan immediately began spinning, and the air conditioner cooled our home normally, just as it had before the capacitor failed. I called the company and canceled the follow-up appointment. I want to emphasize that Josh was polite, personable, and easy to talk to throughout the visit.

    Outstanding Service from PDS Air & Plumbing! I cannot say…read moreenough good things about PDS Air & Plumbing. I recently had them out to service my home, and without a doubt, Jorge Martinez and Jose Franquez provided the absolute best customer service and overall experience I have ever received from any home services company. Jorge Martinez handled our AC repair with exceptional skill and professionalism. He diagnosed the issue quickly, explained everything clearly, and had our cooling running efficiently in no time. Jose Franquez was our plumbing technician and was equally phenomenal. He was incredibly thorough, respectful of our home, and fixed our plumbing needs with top-tier craftsmanship and attention to detail. Both Jorge and Jose were prompt, courteous, extremely knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of properly. It is rare to find technicians who take this much pride in their work and truly care about the homeowner's experience. PDS Air & Plumbing has earned a customer for life--ask for Jorge and Jose! And Even after all of that they gave me a Token of Appreciation for my serving my country as a Marine

    I am writing this review about PDS Plumbing & Air. I have to say that Mario, the employee they sent…read moreover to service our AC unit seemed very knowledgable about his job. I realize he could only offer to do so much within the rules of the company he worked for, but we were grateful for his honesty. He did not try deceive us into paying for an entirely new AC unit as a contractor who came by just before him did. Instead, he went right to work by replacing the capacitor and activating the unit first to see if the AC compressor even needed replacing. Thankfully, it didn't. Our AC stopped working, yet Mario did not rush the job even though it was very hot that day. He first ran a meter test to make sure the thermal switch inside the compressor was making contact before replacing the capacitor. Then he then proceeded to reactivated the AC and and check the temperature of the inside vents to see if cool air was coming out them properly. After he established that it was, he then offered my mother a senior discount, knocking the price for the new capacitor down from $497.00 to $397.00, which we were very grateful for. He was also very polite and easy to get along with and took the time to answer our questions. I just wish there were more contractors out there that were as sincere and knowledgable as he was. If you decide to use this company, ask for Mario. I decided to give the company PDSPlumbingAndAir.com 4 out of 5 stars because their intitial ad said they provide free estamates, but when we spoke to them over the phone, they said they charge a $79.00 dollar "Evaluation Fee" which would only be waved if we hired them for a job, meaning if they charge a price beyond what someone can afford, the potential customer would still owe them $79.00 dollars. ----------- J.
