When we purchased our home, we were unable to use the heater because it was too chilly outside. The heater worked decently that winter but it definitely had a hard time maintaining the temperature. The following winter was even more challenging. We were on the equalizer plan but our heater was constantly running and couldn't even maintain a comfortable 80? room temperature. We decided to reach out to Riverside Bros - Heating & Cooling Contractors one afternoon. We were hoping that we could get scheduled in for a diagnostic check up the following week. We were completely taken aback when liam offered us a morning slot the very next day! They were prompt and extremely informative. They provided us with pointers on how to take care of our heater during the stormy season and also gave us a regular maintenance schedule. Their charges were more than fair and within minutes of the diagnostic, our home was noticeably warmer. The heater runs less and keeps the house exactly at the temperature we set it! i will definitely be recommending these heater repair services to anyone who asks! brad and nicholas were simply the best.

Nicholas did an excellent job repairing my old wall furnace! Previously, another technician visited multiple times but couldn’t pinpoint the main issue, and the furnace operated inconsistently. I even had to give it a little nudge to get it going, which I worried might damage it further. This year, I was concerned about needing a full replacement, which would have been costly. However, Nicholas quickly identified the problem and offered a fair price for a part replacement. Now, it works perfectly!

I had a fantastic experience with a furnace repair service! They were professional, prompt, courteous, and knowledgeable. A while back, when my furnace was clogged and caused some water damage, they provided me with helpful advice over the phone at no charge, which really saved me. I remembered how great they were, so I reached out early one morning in the middle of summer. They managed to schedule a visit for the same day! The technician came out, quickly fixed the problem with my furnace, and even had the part I thought was broken. I can't express how grateful I am! It was truly a wonderful experience, and now I have a reliable furnace repair service I can count on.

I recently had two projects done for our air conditioning systems. First, they fixed and upgraded our hydronic radiant floor system, and then they added a new zone to our geothermal setup. It was a fantastic experience working with them, and we are extremely satisfied with the results. The team was very professional and had a wealth of knowledge. They designed the best possible system while keeping future needs in mind. We recommend their ac repair services to everyone who asks in the Riverside area, and we will definitely choose them for all our upcoming projects. One thing worth mentioning is that we wanted to transition our radiant system from oil burner power to an electric option. Other companies told me it couldn't be done or simply refused. But Gary suggested we go with a heat-pump water boiler system, and it has proven to be an incredible piece of machinery that meets all our needs. It efficiently heats a 1000 sq ft room with 20 ft ceilings throughout the winter without any issues. While the electrical usage isn't low, it only increased our monthly bill by about $250 or 1500 kwh during the winter.

Our 17-year-old HVAC system ran into additional issues after a previous technician attempted to install a new thermostat. To our surprise, it completely stopped functioning one morning. We sought a second opinion and were promptly attended to by Brad from a well-known heating and air conditioning company. Brad was incredibly patient, explaining the entire situation in detail. He assured us that our HVAC system could continue to function efficiently for a few more years. Brad's honesty and helpfulness were commendable. We had a very positive experience and will certainly be using their services again in Riverside. Highly recommend their services.

I didn't know much about steam boilers or cast iron radiators, so when my daughter bought her first house in Riverside, I wasn't sure how to help her with the HVAC system. The first few technicians we called weren't much help and didn't seem very reliable. Then Gary from Riverside Bros - Heating & Cooling Contractors took the time to explain what to expect from a new boiler, made sure we knew the existing radiators would keep the house comfortable, and answered all my questions. Everyone I spoke with was friendly, knowledgeable, and respectful. The work was done professionally and with great care. The new boiler works just as promised, and I’m really glad we chose them. I highly recommend this company for HVAC needs. The price was exactly as quoted, and even better than some other companies I talked to.

I am constantly amazed by the professionalism and expertise of the Riverside Bros - Heating & Cooling Contractors team. From the conversations I've had with the office staff to the technicians who come to service our heating units, the experience has been exceptional. The advice Nicholas gave us years ago about what our system needed was spot on, and we continue to reap the benefits of that decision. Today's maintenance and repairs, performed by Damian, were of the same high standard. Adding to my previous comments, Liam recently inspected our two quarter-century old heaters and provided insightful, data-driven recommendations on how to manage them as they continue to age. It's always a pleasure when your team is here in Riverside! Thank you all!

when our air conditioning stopped working during a big heat wave in riverside, i had trouble finding someone to check it out until i called an hvac company. brad, the technician, showed up the next day and fixed our a/c in less than two hours. since our old system was over 30 years old and had given us a lot of trouble, we decided it was time to replace both the gas furnace and the air conditioner with a new high efficiency system. we compared three different hvac companies for the job and ended up picking this one. brad gave us a detailed proposal, explaining exactly which units would be installed, their efficiency ratings, and how the whole installation would go. he even called to make sure we understood everything and to answer any questions. the final price to replace both systems was much lower than the other companies we looked at. the whole job—removing the old furnace, a/c coils, and condenser, then putting in the new high efficiency system—was finished in just one day. i used to work in hvac installation myself, and i was really impressed by how fast and professional these guys were. customer satisfaction was clearly their top priority. we saved a good amount of money and got some of the best equipment installed, all without any hassle at home. we’re more than happy with their work and would recommend them to anyone. it’s great to deal with a company that really cares about doing a good job at a fair price.

we couldn't be more pleased with the service from Riverside Bros - Heating & Cooling Contractors! our furnace stopped working and they showed up in less than two hours after we called. brad was excellent at explaining what was wrong and gave us a couple of repair options for the old furnace, but after discussing it with him, we decided to get a new one. the next morning, the team worked hard in a really tight area, which was not easy. once the new furnace was in, they were even able to add an april air system, which wasn't possible before because of space. we're so happy they figured out how to make everything fit. now we're warm and enjoying perfectly humidified air, all without spending too much.

I had 5 estimates for my furnace and central air replacement. One service provider was distinctly superior. Gary, the owner, was the only one who genuinely listened to my concerns. He was also the only one who did a manual J load calculation to correctly size the equipment, unlike the others who quoted 'like for like' despite my old 1997 furnace being oversized. Their proposal was clear, fairly priced, and outlined all the work to be done. The team, including Damian and Nicholas, maintained great communication and answered all my queries throughout the process. They are highly skilled, knowledgeable, and professional. The work completed is impressive, and the high-efficiency furnace has significantly improved the comfort of my home. I'm excited about the potential energy savings and the prospect of a rebate. I won't hesitate to recommend this furnace repair service to anyone in need. Their expertise is unmatched!

When it came time to replace my HVAC system unexpectedly, I remembered how my daughter had her entire house in Riverside upgraded—new ductwork, insulation, and a complete HVAC unit replacement. She was extremely happy with the work and suggested I use the same company. I reached out and spoke with Damian about pricing and installation. Damian was prompt, honest, and gave me a fair quote. He handled everything—installed both the air conditioning and heating units, updated the ductwork inside, and even redirected piping to make the space more organized. It wasn’t just an outdoor unit swap; Damian also replaced the condensation pump and ran new tubing. He clearly knows his way around HVAC systems and made sure everything was set up to run as efficiently as possible, which is important in the hot Riverside climate. What really impressed me was the care he took with my home. I have white carpeting, and Damian used drop cloths and wore foot covers without me even needing to ask—something I haven’t experienced with other HVAC companies before. After working with several companies in the past, I can say I won’t be calling anyone else. My daughter and her husband are also very satisfied with the service they received. If you need HVAC work done in Riverside, I highly recommend this company. They truly live up to their reputation—jobs are always done right.

I had a new AC unit installed by Brad, who did a fantastic job and was very friendly. After a few days, I started having some issues that weren’t related to the installation itself. Riverside Bros - Heating & Cooling Contractors quickly sent out a technician who tried to fix the problem a couple of times. On the third visit, Liam came out and was able to find the real issue. My PVC exhaust pipe had started to sag, which created an airlock. This was tricky to find because my basement is finished and the piping was hard to reach. Liam figured out a way to fix it without cutting into my ceiling and got everything working again. He waited to make sure the AC ran a full cycle and the issue was completely solved before leaving. I’ve had Liam help with AC repairs before, and he always does an excellent job. If you get Liam as your tech, you’re in good hands!

We needed an AC inspection done for the sale of our house in Riverside, along with some other repairs. Out of all the companies we contacted, Riverside Bros - Heating & Cooling Contractors was the only one that showed up on time and got the job done right the first time, so I didn’t have to make a bunch of calls during a busy and stressful period. Their service was fast, and Nicholas handled the repairs and cleaning efficiently and correctly. I would definitely recommend them for any furnace or air conditioning needs.

We had a dual-fuel system (furnace and heat pump) installed in our home in Riverside. Out of all the companies we got estimates from, this one really listened to what we wanted and gave us clear, easy-to-understand choices. they also replied to my emails quickly and with helpful answers. Every technician who came to our house during the installation, which happened in stages because of supply delays, was polite and took the time to explain things and answer my questions. The new furnace system works great so far and we are really happy with it. Recently, the display showed a message saying 'routine maintenance recommended.' i wasn't sure if it was needed, so i called to check. they let me know maintenance was free for the first two years and were happy to send someone out. Gary came by right on time, looked over the system, and said everything was working perfectly. he was very friendly and explained things clearly. it just made me even more confident we picked the right place for our furnace repair and installation.

When my furnace started leaking and showing error codes, I expected to just need a bit of maintenance. Instead, the company I had used for many years said I needed a whole new heating system and wouldn’t even give me any repair options or clearly explain what was wrong, even though I asked a lot of questions. It felt like I was being pushed to spend a lot more money than necessary. I decided to get a second opinion after hearing good things from neighbors. When I called, Damian answered and listened carefully as I explained what was happening. He offered to send out Liam, one of their furnace repair technicians, the very next day. Liam and his assistant spent over an hour diagnosing the problem and were very honest with me. They gave me both a repair estimate and a possible replacement cost, and explained everything in simple terms, letting me know the pros and cons of each option. In the end, I chose to replace my old furnace because I wanted reliable heat through the winter. Damian and Liam explained the benefits of the new system, like its durable stainless steel components and strong warranty. Brad did the installation, and he and his helper were friendly, answered every question, and took time to show me how everything worked. Brad clearly took great pride in his work—the installation was neat and well done, even down to the details like how the new furnace was mounted. The new furnace is compact, easy to access for maintenance, and even freed up extra storage space in my utility closet. My neighbor, who is an engineer, came to look and was very impressed with the quality of the installation. I also needed help getting rebate information after the install, and Damian was quick to provide everything I needed. Overall, I am really happy with the experience and plan to use this company again in the future for any furnace repair or maintenance needs.

Our furnace was having problems for a while—it kept shutting off and wouldn’t run at all. I found this company online because of their good reviews. Brad was able to come out quickly and started working right away. He fixed our furnace without any gimmicks or sales tricks, just honest work. When he finished, the price was fair and affordable. We’re really happy with the service Brad provided and will definitely call them again if we ever have more heating or furnace issues. Highly recommend!

our furnace stopped working right when we needed it most. i called riverside bros - heating & cooling contractors on a friday evening, and nicholas came out early the next morning to check things out. after inspecting our system, he explained that a full furnace replacement was needed. while waiting for the new unit to arrive, nicholas provided us with some portable heaters to keep our home comfortable. he even set them up for us that same afternoon, which was a huge help. just two days later, they returned and installed the new furnace quickly and efficiently. we’ve also had them service our system before, and every experience has been excellent. the technicians are always professional and friendly, and the customer service is top-notch. i highly recommend this company for anyone in riverside needing furnace repair or replacement.

We needed help with our heater in our camper, and this was the only company in Riverside willing to assist us. Most places wouldn’t even look at our smaller unit, but Nicholas showed real expertise and didn’t hesitate to check out our heater system. He offered a fair price and was flexible with scheduling. If I can’t get it working myself, I know I can count on him to come out and fix it. If you need heater repair or service, I recommend giving them a call first.

We’re really happy with how quickly and professionally our furnace repair was handled. It’s a relief knowing our new system works much better than our old one. Gary and Liam did excellent work—they even made sure everything was level and double-checked all the details, which really mattered to us since we don’t know much about furnace repairs. They also came back to add a special part to protect our electronics from moisture, something we wouldn’t have thought of. The installation was prompt and thorough. We’ll definitely recommend Riverside Bros - Heating & Cooling Contractors to anyone who needs furnace work.

I'm in the process of having my old HVAC unit replaced by Riverside Bros - Heating & Cooling Contractors, and the experience so far has been fantastic! Our air conditioning suddenly stopped working during a hot Riverside night, and we were really uncomfortable by morning. I called around to several places and everyone was booked up, but Riverside Bros made sure to fit us in the same day. Nicholas, one of their team members, came out personally since all the other technicians were busy. He called ahead, explained everything in detail, and helped us understand our options for a new system. We decided to go ahead with a replacement, and applying for their financing was quick and simple. Our new HVAC system is on its way, and they’ll be back soon for the installation. I really appreciate the care and attention that comes from working with a local company. I highly recommend giving them a try—you’ll be happy you did!
