Report
Great experience with this company, Tom came out and replaced a broken moisture water pump on one of my two split-system AC units. He also cleaned and serviced both of my units and the outdoor power supply in a quick manner. Carini was the company that installed the system a few years ago and once again awesome experience. For my particular AC system, there's a 12 year parts warranty and because Carini did the installation they have a 12 year labor warranty that goes with it as long as they provide one maintenance appointment on the units once per year.
Ultimately it came down to Tom and the knowledge he had, finding the issue within a minute and telling me what he was going to do to fix it. When he left I knew everything was back to 100%. Thanks again for the help!

Far more affordable than other local plumbing/HVAC businesses, and offered higher quality equipment for less than the other peoples' basic stuff. Not sure how they do it, but I'm not complaining. They were able to work with my terrible schedule, and they've been in touch since the installation to schedule checkups and inspections and just to see how everything's going. Really happy that I went with Carini.

Carini designed and installed a mini-split system for our home. We could not be more pleased. The rooms come to a comfortable temperature quickly and quietly. The entire process was incredibly smooth, from their initial visit through completion. And in the end, even the City inspector was impressed with their workmanship and materials. Highly recommend!

Carini installed an electric heat pump water heater for us. The old gas water heater had failed. Miguel and his assistant stayed late on a Friday evening to finish the job so that we would have hot water. Most important, Miguel had experience installing electric heat pump water heaters. Many contractors aren't familiar with them. We also needed electrical work done as part of the installation. Carini has their own in-house electrician who was professional and timely did the electrical work. Carini also did all the paper work for the California Energy Tech Rebate Program. We eventually got a rebate for $3,100. The program is designed to promote the switch from gas heating systems to highly efficient electric heat pump systems. Thanks Carini!

Called Carini for an issue still under warranty. They were on it. Tom did a great job. Talked me through all my options and diagnosed the problem fast. He was on time and communicated really well. I highly recommend Carini due to the price, customer service and great technician Tom. Service: A/C system repair

My system is now working well. Was a challenge because installers were not able to go over, in detail, how to operate my New system; they handed me the manuals. Due to the impact of covid and omicron they were short qualified Technician staff with wait time for parts, as well. Current office and Tech staff have been in good contact throughout my warranty repair & check.

We had Carini Air install a minisplit system in our home. They were punctual and professional- also great at checking in with us throughout the project to keep us informed! Chris managed the installation and we highly recommend him and his work. He was knowledgeable and helpful as we were making decisions through the process. We appreciated the follow up with John who did our estimate and we have been impressed with the customer service in making sure we are happy with the finished product!
