Have used this company for 8 years for maintenance. Used them to install a new air conditioner. Unit failed after one week but not the fault of the contractor. Kirkus Worked with the manufacturer to get us a new unit instead of just a replacement part for the part that failed. We would highly recommend this company. Services: Install AC, HVAC system maintenance

After a really trying day I came home to a flood under my AC coil. I called Kirkus at 8:15pm. Jeff was at my door by 8:45 pm. He cleaned out the drain line (eww gunky) and also filled the freon which was low. He was done by 9:30. My air is cold, my anxiety is gone, and my mom can come home from the hospital tomorrow to a comfortable home. Always fast, professional, and courteous. Would recommend them to everyone!

AC went out with temps in the 90s. Typical of Florida. Called Kirkus Aire and got a quick response without a recorded message! #1. Appointment made for next day, which is understandable at this time of year, and fit better with our work schedule. #2. Received call to advise when tech was on his way. #3. Jeff arrived on time, we explained the issue, and he got started immediately. #4. Within just a few minutes we heard the unit start up, and felt cold air again! #5. Jeff explained it was a bad capacitor, as suspected.

He replaced it, and all is good. Cost was very reasonable, and Jeff is very personable. Took time to explain and check the rest of the system, which, for an older unit, is still OK. So he really deserves an extra We will definitely use Kirkus Aire again, if needed, and will recommend to anyone looking for an honest, reliable, AC company. Thanks, Jeff!
