The entire team from Jeremy, Dale, Mel, Skyler and Rochelle - were absolutely amazing! The service, products and price are simply unbeatable. All of my questions were answered and they took the time to resolve any issues or challenges I had moving forward in the process. No need to look any further - this company far exceeds the competition on every level. And it was important to me - that the staff had diversity - both in office and on site. So glad I chose Acosta!

Christian presented himself as very courteous, professional and showed concern regarding wearing of a mask to ensure my safety. He outlined what he was going to perform on my system, inquired where the units were located, then went about his tasks. He kept me informed and then reviewed his findings. Well done. Services: A/C filter replacement, Cleaning, A/C system maintenance

Service call was requested when our heating system stopped working. Acosta rep wanted to see the outside unit and came back in the house, evaluated the issues with the heating system in the attic and gave me three possible solutions as far as repair or replacement. I told him I was not making a decision immediately and needed time to consider the suggested solutions. At that point he told me I HAD to sign a form stating that I was not going to select Acosta's quote/service.
Certainly a good way to lose a potential customer. Later I was on my deck and saw that he placed Acosta stickers on my hvac unit and the electrical box on the house. Acosta did nothing as far as repairs and did not get my business and DID NOT have permission to advertise on my property. I have no respect for a company that operates that way. I would not recommend Acosta. I had to select at least one star in order to leave my post. I would not give any stars otherwise.

Great experiences both times we've used Acosta. They are professional and will give you the options they recommend, but never push a sale. Had a quote done last year for a new system and now have them for maintenance in our new home. Services: Cleaning, A/C system maintenance, Heating system maintenance

Acosta is great - I can always count on them to do high quality work and they clean up after as if they were not even there. Doug was friendly and knowledgeable and on time. We have been suing Acosta for over 10 years and happy with their service. Service: HVAC system maintenance

Josh the sales rep came out and was very informative and professional. I decided on the Mitsubishi mini split for a upstairs loft which has never been able to adequately cool and heat due to having so many large windows and only 1 duct coming from a existing hvac. Dale the tech came the following morning along with his helpers to install it. They did a great job. Pleased with this new unit.
