Our first experience with this company came as a result of our failed air conditioning one hot July day. I called them and said we were new customers and even though they had many no a/c calls to handle they made it to us late in the morning that same day. They repaired our unit and have been servicing our equipment ever since. They do preventative maintenance and keep us apprised of any potential issues. The cost is comparable to other companies. The service personnel are knowledgeable and professional as well as neatly dressed and friendly.

Had a great experience with Josh from AC specialists. Josh was very helpful and explained the issue in detai took all safety precautions of mask and shoe covers. He promptly flushed out the AC drain pipes which was causing our compressor to shut off. Will definitely recommend Josh and the company to all friends! Service: A/C system repair

Great knowledge, service, and prices. Their a/c replacement was significantly less than the other major companies (that advertise).

So glad to have heat today as temps plunged overnight. After an estimate from another company that seemed really high for blower motor replacement (and a strong suggestion that we should consider replacing the whole system) we called Air Conditioning Specialists on a friend's recommendation. Tech arrived at around 2 and we were back in heat for well under half what the other company was going to charge. Felt like we were dealt with very fairly.
