We had our entire A/C and heating replaced as it was from 2002 and overdue. The price was competitive, but we went with all his recommendations from "Neighbors". Jim was very helpful with the entire installation. Jim cares about his customer read more

great business man.. if you have questions he explains it thoroughly. Not expensive but reasonable

Lemos Heating and Air was a wonderful honest company. They are however no longer in business - it was sold to Rellair Smart Home Systems who unfortunately did not carry on with Lemos Heating and Air's excellent customer service and knowledgeable technicians. This was a huge loss for so many in Elk Grove read more

Prompt service. Knowledgeable of older units and friendly technician. Would recommend if looking to company to help extend your units life.

Needed help with my AC not working. Chose this company. The service was excellent from easy online scheduling. , the service rep calling me even though they were closed, to the technician Trent was very friendly and helpful. I would recommend this company. read more

I called 4 different Hvac companies to repair my 1990 carrier heater. Each different technician said it's to old and they don't know how to repair it. And try to sell me a $12,000. Unit. My wife found a repair receipt back in 2011 from Lemos heating. I called spoke to a nice lady that connected me to a tech who I could tell has repaired everything. I explained the problem and over the phone he told me how to fix it. It was a $180.00 part that I simply unplugged the old one and plug in the new one. And now my heater works perfect. I have Lemos buisness card on my frig. Thank you Lemos Heating you saved me $12,000.00. read more

Lemos Heating & Air - Lemos said replace this $180.00 part, and problem solved . He was right!! - Heating & Air Conditioning/HVAC Near Me

Jim came out and installed the Nest smart thermostat we bought through SMUD. I thought I could install it my self, but our system was missing a needed wire. I wouldn't have figured it out. As more work is needed we will use him again. The Nest is pretty cool and everyone should have one. read more

Jim Lemos is the best!!! Personal attention to his customers bar none!! I would never use any other HVAC company!!

We have used Lemo's Heating and Air for any HVAC issues for the last 20+ years. I've started using him for my FIL residence also. The best thing about Jim is his honesty, followed closely by his fair pricing. Jim will fix your issue with the least amount of expense if he can. He replaced a flux capacitor in our AC unit a few years back and I asked if if we should just replace the unit as it was 15 years old. He checked out and said replacement wasn't necessary. I then asked him about our central heating unit and he said it was in great shape also. There's not many companies that wouldn't see this as an opportunity to gouge the customer and replace a perfectly functioning system for a $15K bill. I've never had an issue where the problem was mitigated on the first visit. I can't recommend anyone but Lemo's Heating and Air. read more

The owner, Jim, performed the inspection when I bought a home in June '21. He was quick to schedule, prompt, professional, courteous, incredibly fair and forthcoming about what he saw and recommended, without even a hint of trying to upcharge or oversell. Fast forward to February '23 and the heater unexpectedly stopped working. Different person responded, but still quick to schedule, professional, courteous, fair and forthcoming about what he saw and recommended. It ended up being the igniter needing replacement, but I get the feeling that a less scrupulous tech could've tried selling it as something much more extensive and expensive. Lemos has partnered with another company, likely in anticipation of Jim retiring and selling Lemos, so I hope the quality of service carries over. Regardless, I plan to stick with Lemos (and highly recommend to anybody in need) until, and hopefully not ever, I'm compelled otherwise by any change in how they conduct themselves. read more

What a bunch of lifesavers! Lemos was the second opinion that I had set up to rebut the claims of my home warranty selected first appt. Needless to say that first contractor was a mess and the problem was misdiagnosed. Enter Lemos. The technician arrived near the end of the appointment window which me worried based on past experience but thankfully that did not stop the technician from resolving our AC issues. The system issues were a head scratcher. The system would cycle on and off randomly and one time it would not start for the whole day. I did some testing myself and noticed power losses to the thermostat and the zone controller. I told the technician about this and then he began his work. Just as confounded as I was, the technician called for a senior technician to help diagnose the issues. This occured over a couple of hours and what I appreciated was the time that both technicians spent to try to resolve the issue. Initially they thought the issue could be a lack of power was due to a bad controller in the dual zone system. They did some testing and disconnected the system and in the end discovered the issue was a bad furnace control. The technician spent another hour installing and testing a new system and voila! The system was up and running. I waited a couple of weeks to make sure there wasn't any issues and that we got everything worked out in paying for the work done and I couldn't be happier. Further, the Lemos technician also noted that my system was in good shape and that I did not need to replace or upgrade my system. I appreciated his work ethic and his bosses as It seemed like the idea of leaving before the job was done did not cross their mind. It wasn't the last call at the end of the day that they wanted to power through quickly but instead a problem that needed a solution. Further their diagnosis and repairs saved me thousands of dollars. Our first home warranty selected technician said that we need to replace the entire system for around 13k. This technician got my system up and running at a tiny fraction of that cost. If you are looking for a great HVAC tech, give Lemos a call. I always recommend a second opinion and it's companies like this that show the difference between good and bad technicians! read more

James is awesome. My wife and I just moved into a fixer upper house with lots of "issues" which included a heating system that has never really worked. This winter we finally got tired of waking up to a house that was ~44 degrees and decided to submit a claim to our home warranty company to see if we could get help fixing the problem. The person that came out (Abbott HVAC) was incredibly condescending and said the only solution was to replace our entire system (after about 10 minutes of looking around) before abruptly leaving. Following this worthless diagnosis I called Lemos for a second opinion. James came out the next day and spent several hours helping us figure out the root cause of our heating issue. It turns out that we had some incredibly dirty coils that were blocking most of our airflow. James patiently and diligently cleaned the coils and got our system working better than it ever has. I am writing this review wearing shorts and a t-shirt inside...something I never thought would be possible in winter. I cannot emphasize just how refreshing it is to work with people that are highly professional and actually competent. I got a kick out of watching James figure out where our problem was coming from and then implementing the solution. He also took the time to explain exactly what he was doing which was really helpful. I am sure we will eventually have to replace our entire system but am glad that we don't need to do it right away. Thank you James and Lemos! read more

See all

Has to be the best most honest HVAC guy there is. Highly recommend and I will call with any problems

They fixed the problem which was heater not really working properly. It was on constantly and took forever to warm up by even 1 degree. They replaced a fuse 100.00 total part and labor. Works great now. They came on the same day I called! read more

They scheduled my service and they fixed my 20 year old AC without upselling any unnecessary repairs. Thank you ! Very much recommend.. read more

I can't stress enough how amazing this team is. Last year my A/C went out and Lemos was able to not only come out on fairly short notice, but fix the problem in a matter of minutes. A few weeks ago I was having trouble with my thermostat (no power to the R wire). When the tech arrived (same guy as last time) I explained the problem to him, he went up into the attic and came down 90 seconds later and told me to give it a try. Turns out I had blown a small fuse. Their team is knowledgable and honest. Any HVAC issues I run into in the future, I will be calling Lemos straightaway, and you should too! read more

James was excellent. He is a service technician not a SALESMAN!! Refreshing difference. I appreciate his honesty and expertise.

This is my second review as they are the only A/C repair we call when our AC goes on the blink. This time it was our capacitor that went out. Technician arrived on schedule and we had cool air pumping through the house in 5 minutes. Lemon is fantastic. read more

Our air conditioning stopped working just as the weather was getting hot. I had just finished a round or radiation and was about to restart chemotherapy and was worried about being able to tolerate living conditions without air. I both emailed and called Lemos prior to their opening hours and received a phone call minutes after they opened, letting me know James would be out that morning to try to help us. James showed up and was not only one of the nicest people I've met, he was extremely knowledgeable and was able to repair our ancient unit in a very short amount of time. He spent extra time explaining things and seeing if there was anything else we needed. The cost of the repair was minimal and the amount of stress off my wife and I was immeasurable. James did not try to sell anything but the necessary parts for the repair, even knowing our unit should probably be replaced. I highly recommend Lemos Heating & Air, and I highly recommend their employee, James, who is a wonderful asset to this wonderful company. Thank you so very much for all of your help at a time we were in great need. Thank you also to the wonderful young lady who called me to set up the appointment and kept us informed prior to James' arrival. I am so sorry I didn't hear your name clearly and was too embarrassed to ask you to repeat it (I'm a little audibly challenged). But you were great also and helped us out so much. Definitely call Lemos Heating & Air for the best service and kindest employees. read more

The most professional, courteous, and reasonably priced that I have ever experienced in my 48 years as a homeowner. Definitely will call again if needed and recommend to friends and family. read more

I didn't think my heater was producing the proper amount of heat. It had been years since I had my system serviced. So, I thought it was time to call Lemos Heating and Air, a service I have used several times in the past for our heating and cooling needs. James came out and after a brief discussion of my issues he put a thermometer on the exhaust vents to check the temperature coming out.....it turned out that the temperature was exactly what it should be and the furnace was working fine. James checked the duct work to make sure that no cold air was leaking and answered the many questions I had regarding both the heating and cooling systems. The bottom line is I didn't need anything done. Lemos Heating & Air Conditioning is a small family owned business that is honest as the day is long! James (Technician) has the same values as the owner of the company Jim Lemos! read more

I was lucky to find Lemos Heating by word of mouth in my neighborhood. I've had them come out to fix both my heater and A/C in the last 7 months. Last year my heater stopped working and Beutler wanted $1800 for the repair. James From Lemos was able to get my heater up and running for a 5th of the cost of what Beutler wanted! He was honest, forthright, and told me exactly what was going on with my heater, along with what to watch out for in the future. When my A/C stopped working in June, I had a home warranty coverage, but the contractor I was sent misdiagnosed my repair and wanted to fix my compressor along with new R22 refrigerant which was an extra $1300. I was stuck with my home warranty company forcing me to pay out of pocket for a faulty repair or else I was out of luck. Luckily Jim Lemos came by and had my A/C up and running right away for under $150. My family had been without A/C for over a week in triple digit days, until Lemos came to the rescue. In the few instances that Lemos has come out, they've saved me a ton of money along with having given me so much knowledge about my hvac system, they've got to be the best hvac company in town. I highly recommend this company as all their staff are very knowledgeable and honest. They never tried to upsell any products, and they truly cared about my family's well being in the triple digit heat. They're the only HVAC company I"ll be calling from now on. read more

Had them come give my air conditioning a tuna and to check and make sure all is working well. My service guy was very helpful and knowledgeable and they he gave me peace of mind after checking everything on my air conditioner. read more

Lemos is amazing! They are responsive and caring! They are reasonable, honest and fair people and prices. They've worked on my HVAC until I finally had to get a new system. They have done everything possible to keep my HVAC going over the years and I could not recommend them enough. They did partner with Blackwell Services to install new units now because they share the same love and care for their customers. Both did not disappoint. I can't say enough good things about Lemos! I'll always use them to inspect and repair my HVAC! read more

James of Lemos checked our heater and told us the problem. He was very helpful and explained everything thoroughly with us. Answered all our questions. Very honest. Did not try to upsell with unnecessary things. The 1st company (Beutler) that checked it was charging us almost $4000 when our system is still under warranty. Beutler wanted us to finance the system! Such a rip off! Glad I saw the reviews for Lemos and went with them for 2nd opinion.. they are very honest and very helpful! read more

I've used Jim Lemos Heating & Air for decades! He's the best. You will not find a more honest man. He replaced our upstairs/downstairs heaters. Installed a new AC last summer. I would trust my life with Jim Lemos. We have a business relationship, but I love him like a friend. You may count on the good name & reputation of Jim Lemos! read more

My furnace was not working so I called Lemos Heating and Air. They came out the next morning and fixed it! They are honest and reasonably priced. The technician, James, diagnosed the problem, told me the cost to fix it and did the repairs on the spot. Highly recommend Lemos Heating & Air! read more

In my opinion, one of the most important things when you're dealing with a service that is both deeply technical and expensive (like your house AC system) is: can you trust the technician? Lemos explained every step of the problem with complete clarity. He fixed it quickly, because it was ultimately a simple issue (make sure your Nest has a common wire for power, instead of using the AC line for power). But most importantly: he didn't try to up-sell us, or disguise this behind some major crisis, in the middle of a heat wave, that would have cost us a lot of money. He could have, we wouldn't have known. He didn't. He even went as far as to tell us (when we asked) that he doesn't do those "spring AC tune ups" a lot of HVAC places do, because they're are mostly a scam. Their main purpose is to get some one inside your house to sell you things you don't need. This is a guy you can trust. This is a guy who earned a long term customer. read more

I called the office over the three day weekend and left a VM that I needed a diagnosis for my a/c unit since my blower fan stop working. They called me on Tuesday, September 5th, and said James can come out the next morning. James showed up, very nice guy, and determined the issue in 15 minutes. He said he could order the motor today upon my approval of the estimate. The office called me that afternoon and told me what the cost was. It was more than competitive. James was back the next morning by 9AM. It was fixed and working in an hour. Great timely work and no effort to upsell, or try to get me to buy a new unit. My impression is they are honest, timely, and priced fairly. I will use them from now on. Keith read more

5 star all the way. I was a little concerned as they gave me a 4 hour window between 1 and 5. I called the shop and at 4:15pm and said he was about 20 minutes away. He came within the window. He thought it was a vent switch, but did later diagnosis it as blocked furance vent and was charged a normal service call of $75. He totally could have said it was the switch but didn't. He didn't push any other services. His biggest recommendation is to change the air filter of your house every 3 months. I already do this. read more

The first time I turned on my ac this year, it wasn't cooling. I called Lemos the afternoon of 6/6 and got an appointment for the afternoon of 6/7. The tech, James, arrived, diagnosed the problem within 10 minutes, fixed it within another 10, and charged me less than I've paid for any ac repair in the last 15 years, without trying to sell me anything I didn't need. I will definitely be using them for all my ac needs. read more

I am so impressed with their service. They go above and beyond their duty to help. They not only are experts in what they do but their prices cannot be better. i am very thankful for their help. They fixed my air conditioner and helped me with my filters. Awesome service and the kindest people I've encountered in a long time. I recommend them with no hesitation. read more

Since my last review almost 2 years ago, I have been hiring Lemos to fix and maintain my 15 years old HVAC. Jim always did his best to help me fix it with a fair price. I hired Jim because I had bad experience with the other companies those either gave me an expensive quote or just told me to replace the whole system. Jim always be professional with his profound knowledge in this field for over 40 years. I have recommended Lemos to all my neighbors and relatives and all those guys with DOUBLE thumbs up! If your system just needs replace parts, Jim will honestly just tell you to replace the necessary parts at a reasonable price! What you want? Fast and fair price to make your HVAC works again! Great job! My latest job was done by Jim yesterday who made my heating working great again. My whole family love this great and friendly man. My conclusion, I highly recommend! read more

James at Lemos does good work. He diagnosed my heating problem in no time. Jim was fair with his pricing.

As other reviews have stated...This company clearly has an attitude problem. Awful personalities and easy to upset. With so many other companies in the marketplace, do yourself and favor and go elsewhere. read more

I would love to come on here and leave a wonderful review I have had Lemo's come out to my house per my property management multiple times. Every time they are so nice respectful and do a great job. But the last time they came out a wire 20 feet long was completely missing from my ac unit. Just gone like someone came and ripped it out. The employees showed me and we were all baffled that it was just gone. We couldn't come to a conclusion to why it was missing. They replaced it but then told our property management our dog chewed it. Which is funny because how can a dog chew a cord 20 feet long without me finding it and it be not chewed BUT COMPLETELY GONE. So because they had to give a reason to the property management for the repair they blamed my dog saying "new line was removed by tenant and was PROBABLY destroy by dog or rodents" why on earth why I removed a wire to turn my ac off in the middle of summer when I have a new born at home?? To sit in the 100 degree house and sweat with a baby all day?? I called their "office assistant" When I asked to speak to owner she said no when I tried explaining situation she was rude I told her I had an appointment with my property management company and would like for them to have a phone conversation while at appointment so we can clear it up and she said no. then when I asked for owners name and their license number she said have a good day and hung up. "Probably" destroyed by dog without any evidence will not hold up in court. Good luck. read more

Lemos Heating & Air - Heating & Air Conditioning/HVAC Near Me

I'm reading all of these reviews and clearly the owner, Jim is selective with who he is friendly and shows good customer service to. Jim spent about 10 minutes at my home yesterday. He was hired to come over to service my air conditioner. I opened the door to let him in, asked him if he had shoe covers (our home is shoeless since we have a crawling baby) and he immediately interrupts and says he could check out back. I thought for sure he was coming back inside. He rings door bell and says it's fixed. He never came inside, I found that odd along with his unfriendly disposition. I called the office to ask for his name (he didn't even introduce himself, literally only said a few words to me) and manger's name, imagine my shock when I learned he was the owner. AC still not working. I called the agency that hired him. Jim out right lied, saying he was not allowed inside, so he only went out back. Sorry! But I wasn't aware that asking if he had shoe covers was a form of refusal. We would have made the exception for him. Our home was over 85 degrees and we have an infant, so we definitely would not have declined his inside diagnosis. He could have just said, no I don't or removed his shoes if he was open to that. Not sure what Jim's issue was, but our experience with him was not positive and we're currently seeking another AC repair person. read more

Upgraded an old oil heater to a propane heater and installed new gas piping to a propane tank and stove. Installed a vent on my metal roof. In addition installed a separate direct vent wall heater. Work done in a mobile home with very small crawl spaces. Received multiple quotes and this quote was by far the most detailed and professional and a very competitive price. Only heating and air company that was able to quote/ complete all aspects of the work I needed! The work was done right on time. Jorge was very professional. read more

We recently received an EcoBee Wi-Fi Thermostat and attempted to install on our own, which was unsuccessful. After searching far and wide, we came across Lemos Heating & Air and thank goodness we did! (They are knowledgeable about EcoBee and Wi-Fi Thermostats.) From the moment we placed the first call, we were met with professionalism and enthusiasm to help/assist. Within a few hours of placing the service call, Lemos Heating & Air was there...same day! Jim is by FAR the most knowledge and caring HVAC guy around. I am thoroughly impressed and much warmer too! Don't look anywhere else, call Jim immediately and you won't be sorry. I will refer him to all friends and family in the area now. Thank you Lemos Heating & Air! read more

I contacted Jim Lemos per a recommendation from two of my co-workers. He came in, troubleshooted my unit, and told me there is nothing mechanically wrong with my unit, and it is working as good as it can for being 16 years old. He was the 2nd contractor to come to my house. I asked him to take a look at a price quote that I received from a competitor, and he had indicated to me the prices I received were extremely reasonable, especially with the financing offer. Unfortunately, his company is unable to match the generous financing offer, and he explained the pros and cons of each pricing option I received from the competitor. Jim is extremely knowledgeable about his craft, but most importantly, he is genuinely the most honest man I've ever met. He told me he would not charge the service fee previously agreed upon over-the-telephone because it took him a full 10 minutes to diagnose nothing was wrong with my unit - all he asked in return was to spread his name to any friends or colleagues that need help troubleshooting their unit. read more
