    We needed a specific heater filter cabinet as part of our new heating system. The person who gave us the quote said it could be added. when the technician came to install everything, the heater filter cabinet was missing. later, the manager called and apologized, and they sent Brantley back to install the filter cabinet onto the heater. now, our system has the filter cabinet we wanted. while it would have been better if everything was done right the first time, i appreciate that they worked to fix the issue and made sure we were happy with the heater installation. overall, i'm satisfied with the service.

    We recently had our usual HVAC company come out to do some furnace maintenance and a spring tune-up on our older system. During the check, they found a refrigerant leak and a few other issues. Like most big companies, they quickly sent out a salesperson to talk about different repair and replacement options. I had done my research and also talked to family who recently got new systems, so i knew the prices they gave me were way too high. I told them i wanted to get some more quotes. After looking online for top-rated furnace repair companies nearby, i found one with almost 500 reviews and a really high rating. I called and talked directly with malachi about the problems with my furnace. He asked for a few details about my home and the current system, then gave me quotes for both partial and full system replacements right over the phone. The price for a full replacement was much more reasonable compared to what i was quoted before, so i decided to go with that. I also liked that malachi didn't pressure me to decide right away. A lot of companies won’t give quotes over the phone and make you set up an appointment and deal with hard sales tactics, but that wasn’t the case here. On installation day, julian and his team arrived early and got to work right away prepping the areas. julian was polite and professional, and he always stopped what he was doing to answer any questions i had. There were a few things i really appreciated: the cabling on the outdoor condenser unit was neat and organized, the new thermostat was installed and even had the time set on it (a small thing, but it shows attention to detail), and the crew put down blankets to protect my floors from the door to the attic. malachi also came by during the installation to check on things and did a full inspection at the end. He walked me through the new furnace and AC system, explained all the features, and showed me how to register the warranty online, with all the paperwork ready and labeled. The crew was careful with both the equipment and my home during the whole process, and they left everything clean. You can really tell they care about the quality of their work. This company is now my first choice for any future furnace repair or replacement jobs.

    I reached out late on a Saturday because I was having trouble with my furnace’s line voltage thermostat and didn’t know what else to do. I expected to pay extra since it was the weekend, like most HVAC places charge. Instead of coming out, Julian spent about half an hour on the phone patiently walking me through how to fix the thermostat issue, all for free. I was impressed by how helpful and knowledgeable he was, explaining everything step by step even though he couldn’t see it himself. I’m really grateful for his honest and caring approach. I will definitely call again for any furnace repair or heating issues, and I highly recommend their service to anyone needing HVAC help.

    I called Riverside Bros - Heating & Cooling Contractors when my heater wouldn't turn on. They arrived during the time they said and called before coming over. Brantley, the technician, was very professional and knew a lot about our old furnace. He discovered that the port off the inducer was blocked and quickly cleaned it out. The whole repair was done fast, and now the heater is working perfectly. I really appreciate the honest service without any extra charges. I definitely recommend them and will use them again for any heater repair needs.

    I can’t say enough good things about the technician who helped me. After calling several AC repair companies in Riverside during a really hot week, I was shocked by how expensive the big companies were—one even tried to charge me $8,000 for a repair! Luckily, Brantley from this local company came out and quickly found the real issue with my air conditioning system. He was honest and explained everything in simple terms, especially since I don’t know much about AC units. Brantley fixed the problem fast and the price was way less than what others quoted me. In just half an hour, my home started cooling down again and I saved a lot of money. I’ll definitely use their services for any future AC repairs. Highly recommend them if you want reliable, honest work from a local Riverside business!

    Randall did an excellent job installing our new geothermal HVAC system. His team was friendly and respectful throughout the process. Brantley took the time to answer all of my questions and even spoke with my dad on the phone to make sure we fully understood everything about the installation. The crew was very considerate of my kids, who were really interested in how everything worked. Even though our home in Riverside had a few challenges, the team handled every issue smoothly and professionally. Since we were without air conditioning during the installation—right in the middle of a hot Riverside summer—Brantley brought over portable AC units and set them up for us to keep our house comfortable. By the time the job was finished, we almost missed seeing Randall and his team around because they were so thoughtful and kind to our family. Overall, we had a great experience and highly recommend their HVAC services.

    I reached out to Riverside Bros - Heating & Cooling Contractors because I thought I needed a new heat pump, but after explaining the issue, the representative let me know that my furnace only needed some maintenance. They quickly arranged for a technician, Malachi, to come by. He arrived fast and got straight to work. Malachi cleaned out a lot of built-up debris and water, and now my furnace runs like it’s brand new again. I really appreciated that they didn’t try to sell me unnecessary equipment, but instead focused on what was actually needed. The repair was affordable and my heating is working perfectly. It’s refreshing to find an honest and reliable HVAC company. I’ll definitely recommend them to anyone needing heating or cooling help.

    After reaching out to Riverside Bros - Heating & Cooling Contractors, Randall arrived to check our old heater, which had come with the house several years ago. It turned out there was a leak inside the air handler, and since the unit was so old, we started looking at getting a replacement. Making a big decision like this can feel overwhelming, but Randall took plenty of time to answer all my questions, especially about energy efficiency. He offered helpful advice, and I decided to follow his suggestions. When it was time for the installation, Julian and Brantley took over and continued the same excellent service. Julian patiently answered a few more questions I had, even double-checking with the office to make sure the information was accurate. I appreciated that he wasn’t trying to sell me things I didn’t need, just giving honest recommendations—like reusing existing piping where possible instead of adding unnecessary costs. The installation went smoothly. The team kept the work area spotless, even after installing the new handler, vent work, outdoor unit, and electrical components. I didn’t need to clean up a thing when they finished. After everything was set up, Randall walked me through the new thermostat and explained how to maintain the system to keep it running efficiently. Both technicians were polite, professional, and easy to talk to. This was a big investment for us, and I always do a lot of research before making a decision like this. The whole team made me feel confident I chose the right company for the job. I’ll definitely stick with them for any future heater or AC needs. Recently, I called again because the unit started making a small rattling sound. Brantley came over, quickly found the issue with a minor plastic part, and fixed it right away. It didn’t affect performance, but he made sure everything was running perfectly. The service has always been top-notch, and the technicians really know their stuff. I highly recommend them to anyone needing heater repair or installation.

    I want to share my experience with heater repair in Riverside. My heater stopped working, so I called for help. Thomas came out very quickly, arriving just 10 minutes after my call. He checked everything and found that my heater needed to be replaced because it was very old and the main part was broken. Out of all the companies I contacted, Thomas gave me the best price. He finished the job right on time, even though he had a personal emergency. The customer service was excellent, honest, and professional. If you need help with your heater or boiler in Riverside, I highly recommend this company. I will definitely use them again for any future maintenance.

    i was pretty anxious about getting my new place ready, especially since i really needed the heater working just right for my pop-up business. the owner noticed how important it was to me and decided to handle the thermostat installation himself, even though his team was fully trained and could have done it no problem. he made sure everything was set up just how i wanted, and took care of every detail quickly and with care. the whole process was smooth and professional. i definitely recommend this company to anyone needing heater repair or any hvac work. super happy with the service!

    When we noticed one of our AC units had stopped working and the other wasn’t cooling properly—right as a heatwave rolled into Riverside—we reached out for help. We got scheduled quickly and Brantley showed up right on time. He was friendly and professional, figured out the issues fast, swapped out the needed parts, and made sure both AC units were running smoothly before he left. The whole visit took about an hour and a half. Brantley also gave us helpful advice about replacing our old, inefficient air conditioners, and we’re looking forward to getting a quote soon. Overall, the service was excellent and I highly recommend them for anyone needing AC repair in Riverside.

    We were recommended this company by our builder for furnace repair, and we've been extremely satisfied with their service. Randall was very responsive and guided us through some warranty concerns regarding previous work from a different provider. Brantley was the first technician to come out and figure out the issue, and Julian completed a complex furnace repair and maintenance service for us. Both Brantley and Julian were friendly, explained everything clearly, and acted professionally throughout the entire process. We definitely plan to use their furnace repair services again and will gladly recommend them to our friends and family.

    I recently had my AC serviced in Riverside and I’m really happy with how everything turned out. As a new homeowner, it was stressful to find out my air conditioning unit couldn’t be fixed, especially with the hot weather here in California. Malachi was the technician who came out first—he was super knowledgeable and took the time to show me exactly what was wrong with my AC and why my house wasn’t cooling properly. He explained everything clearly, which made me feel confident in his skills and experience. Because of this, I asked if he could be the one to come back and install the new AC system once it arrived. I got a call letting me know the new equipment was ready earlier than expected, and they worked with my busy schedule to set up a convenient appointment. On installation day, Malachi and Brantley arrived right on time in the morning and worked hard all day to get my new air conditioning system up and running. They were very professional, treated my home with respect, and made the whole process easy for me. Malachi walked me through how to use my new thermostat and showed me how to program it. Brantley explained how to change the filters and pointed out all the vents in my home, which was helpful since I haven’t lived here long and was still getting used to everything. I’m usually cautious about hiring repair companies, but I felt like I was treated honestly and fairly throughout the entire process. The experience was so positive that I even decided to purchase the extended warranty for my new AC, since I know keeping my home comfortable is important. If you need AC repair or installation in Riverside, I highly recommend giving them a call.

    I had a wonderful experience with Riverside Bros - Heating & Cooling Contractors. I needed an HVAC system inspected for a home I was in the process of buying. The person I spoke with on the phone was professional and straightforward, making it fast and easy to schedule the service at a fair price. The next day, Thomas came out to check the system. He called ahead to confirm his arrival time, and after the inspection, he called again to explain everything he found. He thoroughly inspected the system, cleaned all the vents and ducts, and replaced the air filter. Thomas took time to answer all my questions and gave helpful advice on how to keep the HVAC system running well, especially with the hot California weather. Highly recommend this excellent local company for any heating and cooling needs.

    When our AC system stopped working and couldn't be fixed, Randall recommended installing a new, high-efficiency unit. He was able to get everything set up for us the very next day, which was really impressive. The service was excellent from start to finish. After using our new AC for several months here in Riverside, I can say it's been a great experience. The system is very energy efficient and has a multi-speed feature, meaning it starts off running at about 25% capacity and only goes up to full power if needed. This is a big improvement over older models that just turn on at full blast or off completely, which can make the house too cold or uncomfortable. With the lower-speed option, the air flows gently for longer periods of time, making the home feel more comfortable overall. Although the multi-speed system cost a bit more upfront, the savings on our electricity bills and the extra comfort make it totally worth it. If you're looking for reliable AC repair or replacement in Riverside, I highly recommend this company.

    After having our AC system installed by a different company in the past, we recently ran into trouble when it stopped working during a scorching 104-degree day here in Riverside. The original installers couldn't send anyone out until much later, so we reached out to a local HVAC service instead. Brantley arrived at our place within an hour, which was a huge relief in this California heat. He quickly found the issue—a clogged drain line. Brantley explained that a clean out plug hadn't been put in by the previous installers, so he cleared the drain and took the time to show us how to maintain the line ourselves for the future. We are truly grateful for the quick and knowledgeable help. We’ll definitely be calling this HVAC company again and recommending them to others in Riverside.

    i always have a great experience with this ac repair company in riverside. the technician, malachi, really knows his stuff when it comes to mini split ductless air conditioners. after seeing how well my system was installed and how cool my home stays during the hot riverside summers, my neighbor decided to get a ductless ac installed too. we both have nothing but good things to say about the excellent service from everyone, both in the office and the technicians who come out. since then, two more neighbors have gone with this company for their ductless mini split ac after i recommended them, and they’re really happy with their new systems. i just had my mini split serviced to get ready for summer, and everything is running perfectly. another neighbor also had their ductless system installed recently and is just as satisfied. this company always delivers great ac repair and installation service!

These two worked hard and stayed positive during a big repair job that lasted several days, even with the hot California weather making it tough. They were professional, friendly, and really knew what they were doing. Thanks to their skills and dedication, my AC is running perfectly again. I’ll definitely use this company for any future AC repairs and highly recommend them to anyone in Riverside looking for reliable and knowledgeable technicians!

    I had a fantastic experience with the team that handled my AC repair and installation. Malachi and Thomas showed up right on time and made sure to answer all my questions as they worked. They installed both the air conditioning and heating systems quickly, and everything was done before noon. The process was smooth, and they were very friendly and professional. When I needed help with my air conditioning, they responded quickly and got everything working again in just a few hours. I now have a new AC and heater, and everything runs perfectly. I’m very happy with the service and will definitely use them again. Highly recommend this team for anyone needing AC repair or installation in the area!

    I recently had a great experience with Riverside Bros - Heating & Cooling Contractors when I needed AC repair at my home in Riverside. Malachi and his team installed three high-efficiency Trane air conditioning units for us at a price that was much lower than what others were quoting. The work included new outdoor condenser units, indoor furnaces, evaporator coils, a custom-built plenum, new disconnect boxes, and three advanced thermostats. Everything was handled smoothly and professionally, and the installation came with a strong warranty on both parts and labor. Malachi was always on time, kept me updated if he was running even a few minutes late, and had all materials delivered quickly after my deposit. He and his crew spent several days making sure the job was done right, and I was impressed by how neat and professional they were throughout the process. The team clearly works well together, and it was clear they take pride in their work. After the installation, Malachi checked in with me daily to make sure everything was working perfectly and that my family was comfortable, especially since I was recovering from surgery. He even brought us lunch, which was a thoughtful touch. Since then, I’ve recommended their AC repair and installation services to friends and family in Riverside, and everyone has been very happy with their work. If you’re looking for reliable and affordable AC repair, this is the company to trust.
