Zurn 1" 600XL Pressure Reducing Valve - Pressure from the street is 135PSI, confirmed with the Goleta Water District
K K.

UGH. I had previously used Jerry's Plumbing & Heating for many plumbing related issues around my house, 12+ years, including installing a new water softener and a tankless water heater - all done exceptionally well, reasonably priced, with great service. So when I thought my pressure regulator blew last week, of course, I didn't think twice to call them to schedule an appointment to take a look at it. I am more than happy to report that the service techs arrived within 20min of the start time window, where they took a look at the regulator, asked how old it was, and based on the last time it was replaced, we determined it was over 10yrs old, they said it had to be replaced again. Ok, fair enough, so I asked how much would it be. The main tech walked to truck, came back a minute later, said $575 including the $125 service call... Wait a second, blonde brain processing... that's a $450 part??? Even though a little miffed at the price, I did verbally say OK, but I ALSO said I was texting with my husband about the price (he's an electrician at UCSB) and four minutes later, I came back outside, they had already replaced the unit. So, on my end, I totally admit it was my fault for giving a verbal-yet-rather-hesitant "OK" and yet on their end, it was rather arrogant on their part to not give me a few minutes to discuss with my husband first. Bottom line? Lesson learned. IF YOUR GUT SAYS WAIT - SAY NO - and then sort it out. While I'm all for quick and efficient repairs, this was the most rushed situation I've ever dealt with - and I work in high end real estate (11+ years) - mostly handling escrow inspections and repairs with all kinds of vendors on a daily basis. After I paid the invoice, I called the office and asked why the markup was so high and the woman that answered said "oh that's because if you buy it from a retail store, you don't get the 1-year warranty" and "that it's not the same quality part as the contractors get" - Uhm, what??? This isn't rocket science, these are basic plumbing parts. So I totally understand and accept a markup for the warranty, that makes sense. But the quality? Come on... I don't think so, thus I contacted a local rep for the regulator mfg and they confirmed those specific units at retail stores are the same that contractors can get wholesale, simply because they are essential plumbing fixtures - period. The lady at the office also said that since I had already signed the estimate, there was nothing we could do ** and I had to correct her ** I did NOT sign any estimate that said the repair was $575! The only thing I signed was for the final credit card charge because they were already done and clearly, I was already screwed. Long story short - I will never use or recommend them again, in both my personal and professional realms. If you DO decide to call them, just be sure to do your homework PRIOR to committing (verbally or written) to have them do anything for you. For reference: This pic attached shows the part that was replaced. It costs $198 (pre-tax) at Home Depot, Lowe's, Miners ACE Hardware and anywhere else, yet I was charged $450 for this part, at an approx 217% markup on the part alone, which is outrageously insane. BOTTOM LINE - DO YOUR DUE DILIGENCE. Lesson learned.

I just purchased a home recently and the fan in my condenser unit stopped moving. I contacted Jason…read morehoping to schedule a service appointment, and he asked me to first find out the age and the original installer of the unit from the previous owner first because it might still be under warranty. Turned out he was right! I was able to locate the company that installed my unit and they came out to fix the issue for me. Even though I did not use Jason's service, I am extremely thankful that he was so honest because I just saved hundreds of dollars. It speaks volumes about his integrity. Thank you again, Jason.

** YOU HAVE TO SHAME THEM INTO PULLING A PERMIT THEY SHOULD HAVE PULLED BECAUSE IT'S THE LAW!**…read moreI called Yesenia at the City of Santa Maria and she said the permit was just pulled today. AFTER the install was completed and after my Yelp review. What a shady business. CENTRAL COAST HEATING & AIR DOESN'T PULL PERMITS! THAT PUTS HOMEOWNERS AT RISK! I'm extremely disappointed with Central Coast Heating & Air and feel obligated to warn other homeowners. After some red flags, I contacted the local Building Division directly and confirmed that this company did NOT pull the required permits for the work they performed. That's not a minor oversight; proper permitting is a California requirement for HVAC replacements and major installations, and it protects the homeowner, ensures inspections, and keeps insurance valid. It's in the mechanical code! Instead of being upfront or professional, they pushed ahead without following basic legal procedures. There are plenty of reputable HVAC companies on the Central Coast who actually follow code, take responsibility for their work, and don't cut corners. Unfortunately, Central Coast Heating & Air is not one of them. I strongly recommend looking elsewhere if you want your job done legally, safely, and with integrity. UNLESS THEY SUDDENLY START PULLING PERMITS! PROTECT YOURSELVES! ******** What I didn't hear in your reply is that you pulled the required HVAC permit with the City of Santa Maria or any of the counties that you operate in. The building divisions and CSLB are on to your tactics. I am happy to remove my review if you can provide the permit # and applied and issue date that are verifiable with Building Department. Thanks in advance.*******

He did a great job on our dryer ducts though, even climbing up into the crawl space to make sure he'd gotten all the clogs.

I have never dealt with a more incompetent and more obnoxious company than Homepatible. They…read moreinstalled a thermostat in my home as part of a job, and it didn't work properly. They then charged me to send a technician out who didn't know how to fix it after 1.5 hours of work. When I complained they offered to install a new thermostat for $320! When I persisted in complaining and asking for service, THEY BLOCKED MY PHONE! (Finally I found a solution myself by spending over an hour in several calls to Honeywell's service line.) NO HELP OR CONCERN FROM HOMEPATIBLE. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!! Matthew's response is inaccurate! We did not ask for a new thermostat! They offered it. It was not functional because it was installed wrong, as I later learned through my own research with Honeywell. There was absolutely no need for the $320 upgrade David proposed, and his proposing that was a profound insult! Blocking my phone was utterly unprofessional! There was no need to charge me for a service call by someone who didn't even know the easy fix that the competent and helpful tech at Honeywell advised me to do over the phone. And Homepatible's intransigence continued even knowing this was a health-related problem due to severe allergies and wanting to filter the air in our home. If this were a reputable company, they would have fixed it right away. Now if they are reputable, they will admit their mistake and refund my $89 for the useless service call! Instead of being helpful to a customer in need, they were insulting! DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY! For Matthew: I'd be happy to discuss this in private. You can call me anytime. Or how about unblocking my phone and I'll call you!?
