These guys are pretty legit; professional and knowledgeable without any BS. The technician, Kevin, was friendly and easy to talk to. He even suggested a repair I can do on my own to save some money which I am more than happy to do, and very appreciative of. It looks like these guys have some competent guys working for them, if they're able to keep guys for 20+ years than it must be a good company. Highly recommended and probably should have called sooner.

This company installed a furnace without going over my options for a larger filter size given the furnace for the main unit lives inside the ADU!? The furnace only takes a size that has to be changed monthly. When I asked them to discuss my options, they want to charge me again to come out! This after they've been neglecting my calls for over two years trying to find out the right size for the furnace as I was left with the cheapest worst starter filter that didn't even really fit.

I would definitely recommend The Heating Specialist if you are looking for help with your HVAC system. I worked with Kevin 8 days ago when my heater stopped working. He quickly diagnosed the issue as a failed blower motor using a specialty tester - he is a true expert in HVAC systems. They were unable to fix the heater due to no availability in the US of a Lennox warrantied part due to COVID supply chain issues. Kevin gave me three options: replace the furnace, get the part and have him install it, or get the part and install it myself.

I told him I wanted to install it myself and he took the time to walk me through the process. Because of him, I was able to find a motor off eBay and repair my heater! I really trust The Heating Specialist because of Kevin. He wasn't just trying to make money by forcing a new heater as my only option. He did the right thing and helped me get my heater working in a cost effective way. I'll be calling them once I actually do need to replace my heater.

The Heating Specialist came recommended to me by a good friend. On a super short notice (only a few hours) Daniel came out to give me an estimate on an A/C replacement unit. Mine was over twenty years old, and not working, I knew it was time for a new one. The estimate was reasonable, the unit quoted was in stock, and their schedule for installation was open for the following week. (Estimate quote on a Thursday, installed on the following Monday) Santino, and Jimmy arrived at the scheduled time, and got right to work.

They removed the old, and installed the new unit in about four hours. I'm very pleased with whole experience, from the first phone call, to them cleaning up nicely, and having a cooled home again. Thank you THS

The Heating Specialist installed our new heat pump today. The whole process was seamless. I had contacted a few companies and Daniel was the most prompt to respond and after meeting with him, I didn't get any other proposals. Jana in the office was wonderful and provided great follow up, even when I was slacking. Today, the installers Carlos and another gentleman, arrived at the early end of their arrival window and were very friendly and got right to work.

I was not home for the installation, but Carlos called as soon as they were finished with a couple of follow ups and recommendations. The end project turned out perfect! I would absolutely recommend The Heating Specialist! You won't be disappointed.

For last couple of years I've used these folks to maintain and repair an aging and failing water heater/boiler. Based on their response and effort to fix my problems - and expertise in boilers - I finally bit the bullet and contracted for installation of a new Lochinvar combo boiler. I trusted their judgement and recommendation that this unit will perform better and last longer than other brand originally installed about 9 years ago. Installation went smooth and quicker than estimated. All workers (they sent a full crew) were friendly and professional, and came all masked up.
