From the very beginning, their team went above and beyond to ensure we were getting the best system for our home. We had received estimates from other companies that recommended a variable-speed system, but Mark, our estimator, took the time to explain why that wouldn't actually be the best fit for our home. He walked us through how our current return air setup would limit the benefits of a variable-speed system unless we invested in additional modifications to improve airflow. Instead of trying to sell us the most expensive option, he focused on what would truly work best for our home. He answered every question we had and made sure we fully understood our options. Zack and Alonzo, our installers, were equally impressive. They were professional, communicative, and treated our home with care throughout the installation. The entire process was smooth, and it's clear that customer service and quality workmanship are priorities for Larson Air Conditioning. We highly recommend Larson Air Conditioning to anyone looking for an honest, knowledgeable, and professional HVAC company.

It's refreshing to work with a company that truly values honesty, quality workmanship, and customer satisfaction. I highly recommend them to anyone needing HVAC repair, maintenance or new installation. I'll definitely be using them again for any future heating and cooling needs!

It was a call in the evening not too late around 8 PM and a technician came out and she quickly diagnosed that one of my systems was the outdoor fan and the other one was the compressor. I did not agree with her diagnosis and so I had another company come out and they diagnosed it differently and I told the American home and water what the diagnosis was and had them come out and do a second opinion and they said you're right it is the control board. Please keep in mind that this unit is under warranty and it has been almost a full month and I've had one call made to me about the status of the warranty claim and the replacement part and in the meantime, I went with another company to have this repaired under warranty. Two reasons I'm writing this review; number one the technician that diagnose my systems was completely wrong originally and I was able to get it fixed quickly using another company and while I'm still waiting for this company to be in contact with me about the replacement part under warranty. I hate writing this because they've had great service early on and it's a disappointment that their customer service is now what's making me write this. I had to call three times originally to get an update.

So, I was getting a new dryer and decided it would be a good time to clean out my dryer lint vent…read more I ordered a kit with a round brush and some flexible rods that you attach to a drill and feed through the vent to clean out the lint. Sounds simple enough, right? So the flexible rods that screw together unfortunately separate while I'm using the drill and the brush and several of the rods are stuck inside the duct. I watch a YouTube video explaining how to remove it (it apparently happens frequently) by buying additional rods and attaching a "corkscrew" made from a wire hanger which you feed into the duct by hand to hopefully "grab" onto the brush and pull it out. You guessed it, that got stuck too. I called King Air Duct Cleaning and Lance (the owner) assured me that he understood the issue and he would be able to squeeze me in so I could start using my new dryer. Lance was here this morning and he was amazing. Within 20 minutes he had both of the pieces removed from the duct and all of the built-up lint cleared. Then he hooked up my new dryer, tested the airflow and assured me everything was good to go! And the cost was about 1/3 of what I thought it would be! Highly recommended!!!

When we called our home warranty company to say our HVAC system was making a bad noise on the Saturday before Fathers' Day, they told us no one could come out until Monday. We asked if there was any repair service they supported that would come out on Fathers' Day, since a house without air conditioning during the Arizona summer is potentially deadly. They said we could try Lee Collins Air Conditioning. The owner, Ken Van Cott, personally came out ON FATHERS' DAY. He came when he said he would. He was infinitely knowledgeable and it makes sense - he has been at this business for over 25 years! He fixed the AC unit and the house cooled within a half hour. Better still, he honestly assessed our 16-year old unit and said the average system is good for about 12 - 15 years, which dovetails with our own research. He therefore offered a range of quotes for a new system, when the time came. Mr. Van Cott was thorough. He knew his business, which is licensed through the Registrar of Contractors. He did the job quickly and expertly. He was personable, even when he had to come out on Fathers' Day himself - not even some other member of his 10-man crew of technicians. He made sure he didn't leave any refuse, policing every spare strand of wire and parts' packaging. Would I recommend Lee Collins Air Conditioning? I would recommend them over any other contractor. Thank you, Mr. Van Cott! read more

We have been doing business with Ken and Lee Collins Air Conditioning for years. They installed our AC unit and complete the yearly maintenance on it as well. Last night, July 11, 2020, at 9:30 p.m., the unit stopped working. In a matter of 30 minutes the temperature inside the house had hit 88 degrees. Mind you...Phoenix was under a heat advisory that day and also for the following day, Sunday. We placed the call to Ken around 10:00 p.m. and got the answering machine and left a message. We opted to stay home as opposed to getting a hotel room for the night and we are so glad we did. At 6:30 a.m., Sunday morning, Ken called and said he was on his way!! He identified the problem being a 50 amp relay had gone bad and replaced it and was all done by 7:00 a.m. We're back in business....the house is cooling off.....thanks to Ken and Lee Collins Air Conditioning. You guys are great! read more

My two AC units were 18 years old and the repairman suggested Lee Collins. I talked to other companies and was shocked by the cost. I called Collins and the same day Bryan inspected the units and I received the quote the same day. Bryan didn't try to oversell like the other companies. The installation was scheduled, the four man crew showed up on time and completed the install in about five hours. Installing the controllers in the attic was no easy task. Matt and his crew were professional, hard working and I was surprised that Brian had been with the company for 40 years. Nice job guys. I recommend Lee Collins for your replacement when necessary. read more

I would like to compliment Lee Collins AC for a great job they did today. Kyle and Matt were wonderful and fixed my AC inside coil. It was a big job and they were very informative and professional. The job was completed and they even cleaned the floor. If you want a great company that will take care of your AC or heating needs Lee Collins AC at (602) 805-1348 will do a great job.

If you have AC needs, a home warranty, or both, skip K&K…read more I had a very disappointing and unprofessional experience with K&K during a home warranty AC service call. The system was diagnosed as having low refrigerant and likely a significant leak, with poor cooling performance and a very low temperature differential. The report recommended full system replacement. While those findings can indicate a serious issue, the recommendation to replace the entire system was made without documenting the actual leak location, performing a leak isolation test, or clearly identifying which component had failed. When I called the office for clarification, I spoke with Danny, who became defensive when I asked questions about the diagnosis and why repair options were not being considered. During that conversation, he told me to "stop acting so crazy" simply for asking for clarification on the findings, which was unprofessional and inappropriate. Danny was also confused regarding the home warranty process (see attached invoice from K&K) including statements that I would need to pay K&K directly, which contradicts the home warranty company. For context, I obtained a second opinion from another licensed HVAC company, which recommended a more measured approach including leak testing, refrigerant recharge, and evaluation of individual components before considering full system replacement. At a minimum, I would expect clear documentation of diagnostic steps, confirmation of failure points, and professional communication when recommending a major system replacement. Based on this experience, I would strongly advise other homeowners with home warranty coverage to get a second opinion before approving full HVAC system replacement recommendations from this company. Stay tuned for K&K's response to this review and find out how they decide to deflect!
