I had very good experiences with So Cal Air and definitely recommend them. Both the business and the construction parts of the job went smoothly. Communication was good. They helped me understand options and worked with me on what I wanted. They did what they said they would do. They were flexible and took the time to finesse the work where it was needed. Good quality work. Permits went fine, and everything passed the first time. My 1930 property has a 2-story duplex and a house. I live in one unit and have renters in the other units. I talked to several companies about the work. So Cal Air was more responsive than other companies. Menooa was very knowledgeable and helpful during the first meeting, offering me options. Their proposal was competitive with other proposals. They helped me understand options and were flexible, and worked with me through the installation of what I wanted. They installed 3 separate systems for me, one system for each unit. Each system had 3 zones. I've had many repairs to my property over the years, and the details matter to me. I wanted to hide the lines as much as practical, preserve the architectural look. My contractor handled the electrical installation and opened and repaired the drywall after the lines were installed. SoCal Air worked well with my contractor. Renovation of older construction is often complicated and takes extra effort. We had to come up with some creative solutions, and SoCal Air did a great job! My units were installed above doors and windows. My contractor modified the living room cove ceilings so the indoor units would fit close to the ceiling. So Cal Air did everything else. Everything fits great and looks great! I appreciated that Manooa gave good recommendations to steer me away from difficulties, but he also listened to me and headed my wishes when it mattered to me. So Cal Air handled the permits for the heat pumps. The installation passed the LA Building and Safety inspections with no issues. The work was finished late summer, early fall of 2025, after the heat, but in time for winter. Heating worked great in winter. We had a chance to use the cooling during a recent heat wave, and it worked great! I bought the heat pumps primarily for cooling, since the apartments had only heating and had never had cooling before. The units work great! The temperature stays very comfortable. Everything is very quiet. I barely know they are on, except when I open the door and am shocked by how hot it is outside. My tenants gave me positive feedback and have been very happy with the heat pumps. My property still looks like 1930, but it doesn't feel like 1930 anymore! I am very happy with their work and the results. I've recommended So Cal Air to several friends. read more

I recently had So Cal Air replace my entire HVAC system, including both the outdoor unit and the indoor air handler. I could not be happier with the experience. From the initial consultation through installation, Menooa and his team were professional, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. They also enlarged one of my return air vents to meet the higher airflow needs of the new HVAC system. The work required widening the opening in the ceiling and installing a new return grille. The crew handled it neatly and professionally. When they finished, it looked like new. The new system is working great, airflow is noticeably improved, and the entire project was completed fast and as promised. It's not often that a major home improvement project goes this smoothly. I would recommend So Cal Air to anyone looking for HVAC installation or replacement. read more

I have been having issues with my HVAC for years, where there has been a musty smell, despite an annual maintenance being in place. So I decided to try a different company for this maintenance. The experience was beyond what I expected. The appointment was made with ease and all my questions were answered with patience and clarity. Robert came to do an inspection and showed me photos of the state of my system. There were areas that had clearly not been cleaned properly previously. He did a thorough inspection, and cleaning and went above and beyond. He was knowledgeable, respectful and his work ethic was excellent. I could smell the difference for the first time in years and the house finally no longer had a musty smell. It smells fresh and clean. I can't say how grateful I am. Thank you So Cal Air and THANK YOU, Robert!!! read more

I had four different companies come out to provide estimates for branching off an existing HVAC system to add a new supply vent to an interior room. Robert handled the initial evaluation and was very thorough and professional. Although So Cal Air's estimate was not the cheapest, it was the most comprehensive--including drywall patching and painting--which ultimately made me feel the most comfortable moving forward with them. Other companies either tried to upsell me on a UV lighting system or suggested opening up the entire hallway ceiling, which felt excessive for the scope of work. After accepting the estimate, there was a delay of over two weeks before I was contacted to schedule the service, and I do think communication during that time could have been improved. That said, once they reached out, they were able to schedule the work for the very next day. Victor and his crew were professional and efficient, completing the job in about half a day. They left the space clean, and the overall quality of work met my expectations. Thank you, So Cal Air! read more

Had a great experience with using So Cal Air for the first time. We found - to our horror - an old, leaking battery in an air duct in our home. We did some of our own cleanup, but wanted to make sure that everything was properly taken care of. So Cal Air responded quickly to my inquiry and came out two days later to assess. They found no damage, luckily, and did a thorough cleaning. The whole process was quick, the communication was great, and I feel at ease about using my air duct again. I'd definitely call them again if an issue with my AC or heating arises in the future! read more

Can't say ENOUGH good things about So Cal Air! We have been using them for the past three years and are consistently impressed with their honesty, kindness and integrity! Most recently we had Robert who was an ABSOLUTE delight and helped us out SO much! He was our hero! They are also always quick to respond and come as soon as possible. Main reason we keep going back to them is because we trust them and know they want to help us out and not rip us off! Thank you So Cal Air!!! read more

Air quality affects your health more than people realize, and getting your vents cleaned is something everyone should take VERY seriously. ( it causes so many underlying health problems it's insane ) I had them come in for a DEEP vent cleaning for our new apartment, and they went beyond what I expected, Fully disinfecting everyyyyything. ( you can see how gross it was before ) The difference is really incredible. Can't recommend enough. Genuinely worth every penny. read more

So Cal Air was able to come out the same-day to try and diagnose a sour gym bag type smell that was happening only during the cooling cycle. After examining the evaporator coil, drain pan, and other parts, which were all relatively new and clean, they suggested using an hvac odor neutralizer, which immediately took away the smell and per my indoor air quality monitor does not appear to be having any negative impact on the air quality (PM or VOCs). They made additional suggestions to ensure no lingering issues, but I'm posting now for the great customer service, effort to come out quickly, answering all of our plentiful questions, and providing a solution that made an immediate and dramatic improvement. read more

Very professional. They performed excellent maintenance on our 2 commercial roof unit. Cleaned unit and replaced some minor parts. The team is very responsive on the phone and scheduling appointments. Robert the service tech explained everything clearly, showed me electronic read outs and why some items needed to be replaced, and why some did not. I will be using So Cal Air again. read more

Amazing work, friendly, fast and reasonable prices - professional all the way! I would recommend them to all my friends.. a family business that cares about their reputation and takes pride in their work! Exceeded my expectations... read more

I am a yelper and selected So Cal Air due to their high reviews. I am glad to report this company does indeed provide excellent service. Uriel and Arshen were the technicians that came to my house to conduct a comprehensive HVAC inspection and cleaning. They were on time, nice and comprehensive. They spent over an hour and half to work on both my heater and AC. I highly recommend them! read more

My HVAC system was overdue (by a few years) for a check-up and I was also considering a change of thermostat/control, so I skipped over to Yelp and ended up going with So Cal Air, based on their reviews. I made an appointment for the following week through the Yelp app (which also sent my project info to a few other businesses, who responded as well). On the scheduled day, So Cal Air's technician, Robert, showed up on time and spent about 3 hours servicing my FAU/AC units and replacing my original thermostat/control (and another component that had gone bad). I should mention that there was quite a bit of cleaning to do, as it had been awhile since my last service (with another company). He was very knowledgeable and efficient and explained everything he was doing. I was very happy with his work and his attitude and I will contact them in a year for the next service. As has been mentioned by others, So Cal Air's fee isn't cheap, but neither is it unreasonable. I consider it money well spent. read more

SoCal Air was the right company for us in Valley Glen! They removed our old rooftop system and replaced it with a new more powerful heat pump HVAC system with new, larger ducts to deliver the central air system we were craving. And Menooa and his team did it at the best price we found after getting several reputable local companies to come by to give us their estimate. We love the American Standard system SoCal Air installed...and best of all, the rebates made available to us as a result! Menooa was there to explain it all. Great service! Great company! read more

Replacing 12-15 year old rooftop HVAC. Obtained estimates from 5 companies total. All were in the same price range for installation. Gas/electric split or heat pump, with the lowest end was around $13,000 from all of them. So Cal Air offered the best unit at that price, a heat-pump American Standard, and importantly, they were the only company to offer a 15 SEER2 efficient unit that is eligible for the federal $2000 rebate. They also cleaned all the ducts (only one other offered this included), rebuilt the stand/curb, and installed a new Nest thermostat. So Cal Air Owner Menooa was the most thorough of the free estimates , and the only company to actually look at why the old HVAC needed to be replaced. Initially he thought he could fix the original system. This was preferable as the cost was one tenth the price of replacement, and could be done immediately. He did the work and unfortunately missed the original problem, and the HVAC broke again within a week. This was inconvenient for me, but I appreciated Menooa acknowledging the mistake and immediately refunding the entire cost of repair without question. His honesty added to my confidence hiring them to do the larger HVAC replacement. A couple months later, heat is working well and very satisfied overall. read more

One of the best experiences I've ever had with any trade company, period. Quick backstory: I had been using another company for years to service my old HVAC system, so I gave them the first shot at quoting a replacement. I had learned about the HEEHRA rebates through them and wanted to switch to a heat pump. But when they came out, they basically told me they didn't want to deal with the HEEHRA process, the state paperwork, or any of the extra steps involved. Their answer was essentially: if that's the route you want to go, you need to find someone else. That led me to So Cal Air, and I'm very glad it did. From the start, the customer service was outstanding. Talin was incredible -- responsive, patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful. She walked me through the entire rebate process, not just with the state, but with LADWP as well, and made what could have been a confusing, frustrating process feel easy. Even better, they handled the submission process for me, which was a huge relief. Menooa came out to assess the house, recommend the right system, and give me a quote. He was honest, straightforward, and there was absolutely no upsell. He recommended what made sense for the house, made sure all the requirements were met for the rebates, and came in about $10,000 lower than the other quotes I had received. The installation team was equally impressive -- courteous, on time, professional, clean, and respectful of the house. They even left my attic cleaner than they found it, which honestly says a lot. And the best part: just four weeks later, I already have my rebate check in hand. So Cal Air is hands down the best HVAC company I've dealt with. If you are considering a heat pump, dealing with rebates, or just want an honest company that does excellent work and actually follows through, I cannot recommend them highly enough. read more

This company seems great, in our limited experience with them. We had them check our AC, which had low refrigerant, and they spent a lot of time explaining our options (nitrogen testing to find a leak, options for future repairs, etc). Not pushy at all about spending money with them - they seemed very honest and to genuinely want to find the best solution for us, whether it was with them or another company. If we reach the point of needing major work done, i would definitely trust them to do it professionally and at a fair price. Best AC company we've found in our area. read more

Menooa was the only HVAC contractor to offer us a practical and accessibly priced solution to an substandard air conditioning installation, and a mini-split installation. The mini-split installation was fast and clean. Excellent unit and the office helped me immediately get a City of Glendale rebate. The whole system, from wiring to the condenser unit was professionally installed and virtually out of sight. After the installation you'd never know any work was done! Staff was courteous and very mindful of the house, garage and surroundings. Time will tell on our central AC correction, but I'm confident it will make a difference and we're glad Menooa proposed a sensible solution. Excellent communication all along the way, immediate replies from the office, and most importantly, quality work. read more

Robert was very professional and communicative. Highly recommend to any building or home looking to have their mini splits serviced.

Air con broke during this March heat wave and Robert from SoCal Air was at our house within 30 minutes of our call after 9PM at night. Incredibly professional, expedient, and knowledgeable. He was an angel! We have always had excellent, fast, and fair-priced service from So Cal Air and will continue to use and recommend them! THANK YOU, Robert and Menooa!!!! read more

Found them on Yelp with a 5 star review and it's well earned. They responded immediately and they were on time with the appointment they set. Rob and Fred are professionals. They were quick and transparent with the issues that needed to be addressed. Will continue my business with them by subscribing to their package deal to maintain my AC unit. 5 star service!!! read more

I had So Cal Air come out to check on why my AC was not blowing cold. They were right on time, found the issue very quickly and fixed the problem. Arshen and Otto were great. Explained the issue, had my budget in mind and got it done! Very happy with So Cal Air and will use them again! read more

I got a very quick response in the owner was able to come out the next day to evaluate my unit. A competitor was trying to convince us that we needed to do major repairs or replace your air-conditioning. The also suggested we replace the furnace, but something in my gut did not feel right and there was too many red flags. He was able to come out and confirm that the other company was not reliable or honest and said that everything was fine and I had nothing to worry about at this time. And in the future, if I was concerned, he'd be happy to help and it would not be a big deal. His estimates were a better value than the quotes. I was being strong-armed into accepting by the other company. There was no sales pitch. He put my anxiety to ease. He even threw in caps to cover the valves of an air-conditioning unit that just happened to be missing once the other service provider decided that I needed more freon and had a leak. read more

Arshen and Arto came in like the dynamic duo. They were efficient and communicated the problem thoroughly. I would definitely recommend them. read more

I would highly recommend So Cal Air to anyone looking for honest, thorough HVAC service. This is the second time I've used them this year, and I couldn't be happier. Last month, they fixed a relay switch that -- with some adjustments -- started working again. The technician noted the part in case the problem returned, rather than just replacing it outright. I was happy they saved me the unnecessary expense AND conveniently noted the part so I could just call if it happened again. Since that first visit went so well, I scheduled my yearly spring maintenance with them. I always have my HVAC serviced every March, but I can say that David (I think it was David) did a noticeably more thorough job than I've experienced in past years. This appointment reinforced what I already thought - that I would certainly reach out to So Cal Air for any HVAC issues I have again. Fingers crossed I don't though! read more

Super responsive and very helpful! Fixed an issue another company claimed they could not. Also very sweet to my cats :)

If you're looking for a new HVAC, you don't need to look any further. I did a lot of research, had several bids, and this company was by far the best. The bid was reasonable, and everything that was promised was accomplished. From the beginning of the process until the end, Menooa was professional, receptive, and answered all my questions with patience. The installers were efficient and finished well before I expected. I was also impressed by Taline in the office, who was very knowledgeable and friendly. I don't think you can go wrong with this company. I recommend them without reservation. read more

We are very happy with our new ducts and HVAC unit that Menooa and crew installed. Their price was competitive, their estimated time of completion was accurate and they were very responsive from the time of the estimate to the end of that project . Once the installation was done, Menooa followed up with us to make sure everything was working well. We highly recommend So Cal Air for your HVAC needs. read more

So Cal Air is fantastic! After their excellent installation of the HVAC system in the lower unit, I didn't hesitate to hire them again for a second HVAC installation in the upper unit. They truly are the best in town. Thank you, So Cal Air! read more

This is my go-to company. I've installed a new AC unit in a condo, also new ventilation, and cleaned the the ducts. Those are three different projects on different instances. The people that work for this company are doing a great job and are always professional. This is was and will be my go to company anything AC related. read more

My hvac system needed cleaning from the recent fires in Altadena. So Cal Air showed up but discovered my system used a different sized filter they didn't have. They also discovered I had a larger system than anticipated. Since their quote was based on a smaller system they gave a discount for a larger system. They cleaned my old filthy filters so I could use the system (it was really chilly in my house) and ordered ones that fit. Then they came back and installed the correct filters. They also got some extras in anticipation of a clean out later which will save time. Very much appreciated their work and forward thinking. read more

We have been doing business with So Cal Air for a number of years and have high praises for their response and experience.

So grateful to have found So Cal Air. read more

Came same day to check on a musty smell coming from my mini-split. Several of the hvac companies I reached out to say they didn't service mini-splits, so I was grateful to find one that did and that was available on short notice. Robert deep cleaned the mini-split and topped up the freon for a more reasonable price than what a competitor had quoted. My a/c has been working well (and smelling good) since then. read more

Had what I thought was a fairly simple HVAC repair need, but wanted someone with experience to take a look and confirm that was indeed the problem. Armen and Uriel tested and replaced the capacitor with efficiency and open communication, showing me every step of the process along the way. They also answered my other questions and went above and beyond in their service, all while staying within the agreed price and scope of work. Would definitely reach out to this company again for any future HVAC needs. read more
