Report
Quick response to assistance I needed. Very helpful and professional. Updated: 6/15/22.had an issue with our main AC unit. Needed major work done. These guys were able to resolve it under our warranty and at no cost to us. Had a slight issue getting the parts, which my caused some hiccups, but that is due to what we all are experiencing with our supply chains. Not the fault of the service company.

Everyone was very friendly and professional. They were on time and took care of setting up the inspection from the County and also took care of setting up the warranty. I didn't have to worry about anything. I would highly recommend Balanced Air for anyone looking for a AC unit or anyone that needs repair done on their current system.
