Darren was extremely kind and knowledgeable. Fair prices and quality work
Arrived on time & is checking on parts.
I came home from an errand & found the ac wasn't blowing cool air. It was set at 76 degrees & the temp in the house was 80. This happened at 4:30 pm so when I called, they put me on the list to call in the morning. Initially, I was told someone would be at my house between 3-4 pm but Tyler called me early that…
Darren was amazing to deal with. Kept us informed on what was needed and the cost of the repairs. Was friendly and professional.
Darren was amazingly friendly, shared information and his knowledge, while explaining what needed to be done (and what was unnecessary as well).
Darren, Was on time polite, courteous and professional
I appreciate prompt service. The tech was professional, competent and was willing to discuss the problem with us as well as explain options for possible future purchases. Our unit is 20 years old and may need to be replaced soon. Previous companies were not as helpful.

We had an AC issue come up and they were able to come out the next day to check our system. Really thorough service call and answered all of our questions. Would use this company again for repairs and/or service calls. Happy with our experience.

Tyler was very prompt and courteous. Fixed the problem quickly. They got me in same day. My brother who has done HVAC for 27 years said the tech should have done some maintenance on the AC unit while he was here, like clean drain, check freon, clean unit, etc. I am happy to have AC working. Thank you for fitting us in!

Not impressed at all with your representative! Talked for hour and a half non stop and didn't do anything! Charged 315 dollars... Very disappointed!!!
Tyler at Central Heating & Air did a great job at getting my air conditioner running again! I would call them again in the future!
Tyler is friendly and professional
Diagnosed the problem as a slow leak. Brazed in a new elbow. Evacuated the system and recharged the system. Repairs only took less than two hours. One guy, one visit and done. AC good as new.
We had an AC that wouldn’t turn on, Dan came and found that the transformer had busted, changed it out and located the short that had caused it and fixed that as well. He was polite and worked quickly!

Very happy with promptness of service. I called at about 12:30 p.m. And was told someone would be out between 4:00 and 5:00 which I thought was pretty good for same day service in the middle of the summer. Anyway, he showed up at just after 2:30 and had the repair completed by 3:00, replacing a bad capacitor that…
