When my a/c wasn’t working, Empire scheduled a service call that day and my issue was addressed right away. Zeke diagnosed the problem and explained my options so that I could make an informed decision. Empire is the best!

I called Empire this morning because my heat was blowing cold air. They worked me in and sent someone out 4 hours later - Travis was extremely professional and knowledgeable. He answered all questions I had and literally replaced my furnace igniter in 15 minutes. Couldn’t have asked for better service or more reasonable pricing ! Definitely recommend

We've been using Empire Heating & Air for more than ten years and they've always provided great service at a fair price. Our builder sent a few HVAC contractors for warranty repairs but none were as knowledgeable. Empire is the most reliable company we use for any house repairs or maintenance.

I have been using this company for over a decade. They installed my HVAC system back in 2011 and it still runs great. Empire does all the maintenance and repairs. Lastly, if Chris still working there, he was the best salesperson and was very honest and gave a competitive pricing for installation.
