    Miguel and Edgar were amazing. Very polite, respectful and helpful. They did a great job and kept everything clean. Cleaner than before they came.My first contact with Juan Carlos was great - he set up appt for estimate. Rick came and he too was polite and respectful.We are impressed with this company.

    Just had the Friars team at my house for maintenance and they are a great team. Matthew and Robert were friendly and honest. They also educated me and showed me a few tips.I felt very comfortable with them and signed up for annual maintenance.

    Just had Robert Rivera come out. He was super professional, friendly, and helpful! Will continue to use this company and recommend it to others.

    Brian and his assistant were the greatest. They installed and tested the new A/C-heater without any problems. They answered all my questions professionally. I hope to utilize them for future jobs. John B

    Fantastic experience. My York on roof Heat/AC unit was having issues with AC. Chris was very knowledgeable and took the extra effort to explain how the different components work and what the problem was. Also, they actually pick up the phone when you call them. 10/10

    Nick immediately found the problem (an old capacitor) and fixed it. He then asked me about doing a more complete tuneup and cleaning. Since it hadnā€™t been done in a while, I agreed. All quick and efficient! Plus, he was easy to talk with about what he was doing, etc. Nice guy!

  • Review 7 (2024-09-05 - Rating: 5)

    The ac in my small business stopped working in the middle of one of the hottest days this year. I call Friars and they were able to get someone out to me in about an hour. Nick braved the heat and the climb onto the roof and had our ac up and running in no time! Truly our hero!!!

    Matthew was an excellent tech, very informative, took lots of pictures and clearly has integrity and takes pride in his work. He deep cleaned my absolutely disgusting mini splits and took the time to educate me on the system and my specific situation and shower me in detail how he resolved the issue.

  • Review 9 (2024-08-23 - Rating: 5)

    Miguel, Edgar and Jerry were very professional and friendly. Miguel explained all the steps and answered all my questions. The team was efficient and cleaned up after themselves. I would definitely use Friars Air again.

    Chris did an amazing job servicing my heating issue. He was timely, kept me informed throughout his work, and explained all the issues and charges. I was very impressed with Chris and FriarAir! I emailed online this morning and he was scheduled and sent soon after. It was a great experience. And best of all my heating issue was fixed same day.

    Outstanding customer service. The both of them were very knowledgeable of what was done today at my home. I would recommend Friars to anyone looking for knowledgeable Air conditioning and heating technicians.

    Quick and professional, got my condenser up and running with just a new capacitor, took less than an hour.

  • Review 18 (2023-12-20 - Rating: 5)

    The group arrived at the beginning of the expected window and finished 2 hours early. They were efficient and knowledgeable and polite all the way through. I can highly recommend this company.PS: It was only installed today, but given what I have seen, if anything goes wrong or I have questions, I am confident they will be there to support us. Thanks to all.

  • Review 19 (2023-07-26 - Rating: 5)

    Nick did a fantastic job repairing my AC unit! Friars was able to get us scheduled for the next day even during the heat wave. Nick arrived on time and diagnosed the issue quickly. He thoroughly tested all components and waited patiently to ensure the issue was resolved. He went above and beyond! We had another company come out the day before and the other company told us we needed to replace the entire AC unit at a cost of $5k and up! Nick repaired the issue for a tenth of what the other company quoted. I would highly recommend Friars as a local San Diego company that is family owned and supports first responders and military.

  • Review 20 (2023-09-11 - Rating: 5)

    After my 15 year old AC condenser unit stopped working during a recent heat wave, I called Friars Heating and Air. The next morning technician Nick Walker arrived and quickly diagnosed the problem. Rather than trying to sell me a new unit, Nick explained what the issue was and offered me a reasonably priced solution to get the unit back in service. Nick was very polite with a clean, professional appearance and did a great job with the repair. After such a positive experience, I would highly recommend Friars Heating and Air to anyone in need of service.

  • Review 21 (2023-09-05 - Rating: 5)

    Couldnā€™t have had a better experience! Chris was knowledgeable and courteous, and shared a lot of info about my current unit. He also explained possible cost of a future purchase to replace it. I told Chris that one of the reasons I chose Friars was because theyā€™re veteran owned/operated since I had multiple family members that were military veterans themselves. Chris was very personable and I would request him again as a tech.

  • Review 22 (2023-09-20 - Rating: 5)

    McGill and his crew were very polite and professional. I had a couple of issues. So the company sent Chris to my house today and he took care of them. Chris was very polite and very detail oriented. I highly recommend this company. I give them five stars.

    Friars Heating and Air is THE MOST PROFESSIONAL, HONEST, AND KNOWLEDGEABLE company that I have had the pleasure to experience. Their price is reasonable, unlike their competition.

    Excellent interaction with Nick. He promptly informed us of his arrival. Upon inspection of our units, quickly stated that he was not certified to work on units and swiftly provided us with the correct technician and company. Extremely impressed with his professionalism and would highly recommend him.

  • Review 29 (2022-01-20 - Rating: 5)

    This may have been our favorite contractors we have ever used for anything. He did a great job and was so pleasant to work with. We had a very complicated repair on a line for our mini split, and had been looking for weeks to find someone who could do the work. He saved us money and did a beautiful job. The owner even showed up on site and warrantied the repair. I would recommend this company highly! They were so great to work with from start to finish.

  • Review 30 (2023-06-01 - Rating: 5)

    Rick and Chris installed new breakers in the existing panel. They did great work in an efficient and timely manner. We would definitely use them again for any other electrical issues.

    We enjoyed our experience with Friarā€™s heating and air. They provided us with 3 options on a system for our home and worked with us to get the best option for our needs. The day of installation the team arrived on time, got the job done in a timely manner, were professional and left the job site clean. We definitely recommend Friarā€™s for your AC needs.

  • Review 35 (2024-10-28 - Rating: 5)

    Miguel and Gerardo just stopped by to check one of our wall units to make sure it was securely attached. They were great! They were efficient and clearly knew exactly what they were doing. They put shoe coverings on every time they walked in/out of the house, and were a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend!

  • Review 36 (2023-08-09 - Rating: 5)

    Chris was very professional. All my repairs were explained to me along with pictures of what needed to be done. I was also given the option to take care of the needs at different times starting with the most important in order to save money. Look no further this is the company you want taking care of your AC and heating needs.

  • Review 37 (2024-08-16 - Rating: 5)

    Jerry fixed the airflow problem with adjusting the vents. We are happy with how rooms are cooling now.

  • Review 38 (2023-07-20 - Rating: 5)

    First time Ive called Friars. Not only did they fix the problem same day but the price was reasonable. The technician was also professional, knowledgable, and friendly. I didnt feel like they were trying to take advantage of me due to the heat wave like so many others do. They are my go to HVAC company moving forward after having bad experiences with other premium companies.

  • Review 39 (2023-08-30 - Rating: 5)

    Friars provided amazing service and was very quick to respond when our AC failed. Was great for them to come out and replace our old system in just a couple of days in the middle of this heat!Would strongly recommend for anyone looking for service or products in the San Diego area, you canā€™t go wrong with Friars!

  • Review 40 (2023-06-13 - Rating: 5)

    Itā€™s always a good experience with Friarā€™s Heating and Air. They are professional and friendly and quick to respond to my calls or texts. They keep up to date with their technician training. Their technicians have been happy to explain to me the work they are doing and why. Their front office staff is excellent, too. They have excellent follow up and customer service.

  • Review 41 (2023-08-08 - Rating: 5)

    Nick was informative and professional. He took the time to walk me through and explained the situation in an easy to understand way. Great service. We will be adding Friars as our go-to cooling contact.

    Wyatt was professional friendly and efficient! He found the problem within like a minute, then provided me with 2 option. Fast and reliable. Thank you Wyatt for giving us heat again!

  • Review 44 (2022-12-19 - Rating: 5)

    Friarā€™s is the best. Had Rick come out and give us a quote and he was able to give us a great price and an awesome new system. On install day, the installers were very professional and was a pleasure to talk to. They explained everything and went above and beyond what was expected.Installation was nice and neat and where we wanted it.Received quite a few quotes but glad we went with Friarā€™s. If you are planning on an HVAC system ask to talk to Rick or Carlos and they will hook you up right!!

  • Review 45 (2022-08-13 - Rating: 5)

    Technician arrived on time, and got right to work. Bryan was very courteous and professional and didnā€™t stop work until the job was finished. Another technician came (Chris) to work on the compressor when it was time to do so. He was also very courteous and professional. When the job is finished they thoroughly clean the area up. I would definitely recommend Friarā€™s if or when the occasion arises.

  • Review 46 (2022-12-19 - Rating: 5)

    The Friarā€™s team did a great job of replacing my HVAC system as well as upgrading our ducting system. From the quotation process to the install as well as addressing any post install concerns, they were on top of everything. They offer competitive pricing for a quality system. I would highly recommend them!

  • Review 47 (2023-09-13 - Rating: 5)

    Chris was professional, and honest. He worked efficiently, and didnā€™t try to sell me something i didnā€™t need. Chris was the best HVAC technician Iā€™ve ever used. I will be using him again for any heating or AC repairs.

    I have used this company before to install a brand new HVAC two years ago and they were very professional and did a great job so I thought I would have them come back and do my yearly maintenance on my heater and my AC unit.Technician Wyatt was awesome and he sent me a text and let me know when he was coming, which was helpful for me for planning purposes of my day. He was very professional, on time, and he took the time to explain to me what he was doing.Wyatt is very likable and easy to talk to which made our time together comfortable!I would highly recommend this company for anybody who is looking to have either maintenance done on their AC and heating unit or just looking to replace their old outdated unitsšŸ™šŸ™ŒšŸ”„šŸ˜ŠšŸ‘

  • Review 52 (2023-01-11 - Rating: 5)

    Ive been living in my house for eight years and had never had the furnace inspected. I called two other places before calling Friars. Friars picked up the phone. They scheduled a same-day visit. The tech, Nick, was on-time and incredibly helpful with explaining the condition of the furnace and my options for next steps. And on top of it all, the service call was inexpensive. Impressive and appreciated.

  • Review 53 (2024-01-31 - Rating: 5)

    Called a few companies to help with my parents ac/heater system and Friars was the one with best communication and availability. Very happy with their service.

  • Review 54 (2022-06-06 - Rating: 5)

    Friars Heating and Air replaced my AC and furnace last week. I am very happy with their work and their ethics. I had three other estimates and Friars was the only company that gave me a true evaluation of what I needed. I had a contractor friend evaluate my duct system prior to getting estimates so I knew the condition of my system. The other estimates all told me I really needed a new duct system.. I so truly appreciate the honesty of Gary who inspected my home, told me my duct system was ok and wrote my estimate. The crew showed up on time and started working right away. A great group of guys!Everything was tested and I was taught how to use the system before they left. Something done that I didnt expect is that they soundproofed the closet where the new equipment was installed. I can barely hear it when its on. When my old system turned on I needed to turn up the TV. Lol Everything was cleaned and all the old equipment was removed. If I can just mention one more thing that is awesome. New units come with a new thermostat.. I wanted a thermostat that worked with Alexa and Google. Thats what was installed even though it was an upgrade there was not an extra charge. I am very happy with their work and recommend them to anyone looking to install or upgrade their current system.

  • Review 55 (2023-07-13 - Rating: 5)

    After waiting 4 days for different hvac repair company to show up and refuse to work on our unit because it was on our roof, we called Friars. Chris showed up the next day and after 40 minutes of testing was not able to reproduce the problem. Shortly after he left our system shut down and he returned to find that our blower fan was overheating due to a failed bearing. Parts were ordered and we were up and running the next day. We just moved here and will be using Friars for all our future hvac service. Thanks to Chris for all of his hard work up on our hot roof.

  • Review 56 (2023-01-12 - Rating: 5)

    We called Friars when our heater stopped working and they were out to take a look right away. Even though our system is old, Nick still took the time to troubleshoot and diagnose the issue. He then walked though options without any sales pressure and helped educate me on the various paths we could take. Friars came highly recommended, and Iā€™ll be passing that recommendation on to anyone who needs a great HVAC partner.

  • Review 57 (2022-03-05 - Rating: 5)

    Roman and the team provided me with an honest and responsible assessment.

  • Review 61 (2019-09-23 - Rating: 5)

    Great experience. Rick arrived right on time after calling ahead. He explained to me what a spring AC tune up consisted of and got to work. In the end, he gave me some suggestions for future repairs but did not use any scare tactics. He cleaned everything up when done. Highly recommended.

  • Review 62 (2022-12-29 - Rating: 5)

    Miguel showed up with another tech and did a great job. Carlos, the owner, is a respectable fair person. He gave me a great deal being military for a new AC. Honest guy and not a salesman saying cheesy sales pitches. Did not try to upsell me on getting more neither. Would go with them again 10/10

    These guys are great. During this last heat wave, my old AC wouldnā€™t turn on. I called them for a service call and they were able to come the next morning.

  • Review 68 (2023-12-09 - Rating: 5)

    We had a leak wreaking havoc through our bathroom ceiling, and Friars Plumbing was a lifesaver. Their response was quick, and Miguel and Jerry put in a solid 6 hours to identify and fix the problem. Surprisingly, it traced back to our neighborā€™s place. A few days later, Brian and Miguel returned to check our boiler and replaced three leaky taps. Their reliability and top-notch service were truly appreciated!

  • Review 69 (2020-05-30 - Rating: 5)

    Friars saved the day! My AC is working again! Scheduling the appointment was quick and easy. Communication was awesome! I got a text and email from Jennifer within minutes. Then followed up with texts from Rick, the technician as well. Rick arrived on time and was very professional. From wearing booties when in my house to wearing a face mask to keep everyone safe. Rick showed me the exact parts that were causing the issue and had my house cool right away. I highly recommend Friars!

    We had a leaky pump that was leaking under our floors. We requested help via Yelp and the owner, Juan, replied immediately on a Sunday and set up an appointment for the next morning. James came and fixed everything with great skill and was very friendly and polite. He wore booties over his shoes and wore a mask while he was here. Our A/C is all fixed for a great price! He even replaced the filter! Will definitely use them again for maintenance. So glad we found this great business!

    We met the technician (Raul) while he was performing service at our daughters home in Mira Mesa. He was so knowledgeable and patient as he explained every detail of the AC system. He impressed me so much, I immediately wanted to sign up for the Friars Comfort Club. He came today and serviced our system with the same competence, explaining every step he took to check our system. Its comforting knowing our heating and air conditioning system is in great shape! Well done Raul and hats off to Friars for hiring such an engaging and expert technician.

    The staff at Friars Air Conditioning were very pleasant to work with. I have an older home in Mira Mesa and had no air conditioning. I got a quote for a single zone ductless mini split for my master bedroom. The pricing was very reasonable. No issues during the installation. They were very neat and cleaned up before they left at the end of the day.

    I highly recommend this air conditioning company. I recently moved into a new home in Poway and the previous owners never bothered with having AC. I called a few companies for quotes and Friars was one of them. Carlos the sales guy was very professional and he explained the new system very well. The installation crew arrived on time and got to work. The work area was kept clean and they proceeded to install the new furnace and AC unit in a timely matter. The lead installer explained how to operate the new unit and it works great. I highly recommend Friars Heating & Air.

    Best AC company ever! They were very punctual and extremely professional and respectful. Fixed my AC unit in a timely manner and itā€™s been running great ever since! And best of all I found their prices to be very competitive. Itā€™s so hard to find good companies with solid values, so I definitely recommend this veteran owned company for all your AC needs!

  • Review 83 (2020-01-10 - Rating: 5)

    This company was really easy to work with. I saw one of their posts on Facebook and reached out. Carlos came out to my house and gave me an estimate to adding a mini split to our older home. Their pricing was in line with the other companies I talked to but I liked their financing offer. New system works great.

    Our home is about 20 years old and we had never had AC. We called them for a new quote. They were prompt and courteous and the pricing was very reasonable. They were able to accommodate the installation for a weekend and I am very happy with our new Goodman air conditioner.

  • Review 85 (2020-08-13 - Rating: 5)

    After dealing with another well-known company, I found Friars. They diagnosed the issue (leaking coil) and offered various options at a more reasonable cost to address the problem. On the day of the repair, they were very professional, took care of our home, took precautions for COVID, and did an excellent installation of the coils. I inspected their work in the attic and saw they took extra care to do the job right! Highly recommend.

  • Review 86 (2020-03-11 - Rating: 5)

    I recommend them for the annual AC tune up. We got one of their fliers after they worked at my neighbors house. They came out the next morning and serviced my unit. Everything from the initial call to the scheduling to the service was top notch. I recommend them for anyone in Chula Vista looking for a tune up.

    Needed an AC upgrade to our home because ours was an older unit and we needed the AC unit moved. Called the company that the local Costco uses and they flaked out. Multiple calls were not returned and their quote was very high. Gave the Friars company a try and we werenā€™t disappointed. Fast, friendly and quality workmanship. Give the crew at Friars Heating & Air a call if you want the job done right.

    We are very happy with this company. We suffered with no AC for a few years. We finally decided to add ac to our San Diego home. We contacted three companies for bids and Friars came in the middle. We went with them for a new 3 ton Ac system. They came on time , they were careful with my belonging and they did a very good job on the installation. We are happy with the new AC replacement.

  • Review 92 (2019-09-27 - Rating: 4)

    We recently moved into a somewhat older home in Chula Vista. The previous owners did not have AC so we called a few places to get bids for an AC replace the. Friars Air Conditioning came out and gave me a very reasonable price for a 4 ton split air conditioning system.The installation went smooth and we had no issues. The only bad thing is that they did not offer financing when we purchased our system back in July. Other than that, great group of guys.

    We have been at my Escondido house for about10 years and the original ac system finally went down. I called a couple of guys to come out and give me an estimate for a new system.Carlos from Friars Hearing was very personable. The value that we got for the new system was unmatched. The install went fine and we have been enjoying the new AC for months.This is now my AC co any for any needs.

  • Review 94 (2021-03-09 - Rating: 5)

    Friars was fantastic. I took a long time to decide what to do with our house because we needed everything: a new furnace and new AC, and I was stunned at the sticker shock of all the estimates I had. Everyone suggested mini splits for our house, but Alex and Carlos really took the time to explain both the benefits and downsides to all the different options. The entire time, they were professional, kind, and patient with me as I asked a myriad of (ignorant) questions, which they patiently answered without making me feel dumb. I feel like I got an entire education on HVAC systems! We are very happy with all the strong communication, their pride in workmanship, and their professional work and communication. They respected our time, our hesitation to spend all that money, and our property. In the end, we are super glad we went with them because we feel they take so much pride in their work and it seems like they will stand behind it. And you should see their work! Its really pretty! (never thought Id say that about HVAC stuff!:-) Thanks Friars!

    My wife and I recently received an estimate from Friars Heating & Air. Before they entered our home they covered their shoes with shoe covers. We really appreciate how they respected our home and how professional they were during our appointment. We were up front that we were not ready to purchase an A/C unit until our tax refund and they still took the time to go over all our options. We just want to say thank you for your time and educating us on how to cool our home in the Summer.

    I typically do not post reviews but Friars provided great service.We recently experienced a heat wave and my ac unit was running most of the day. My upstairs furnace started to leak water onto the floor. My wife phoned Friars and they promptly responded to our home. After a thorough inspection indoor and outside, they informed me my coils had iced over and the drain was plugged. Not sure what that means but they indicated the unit was now working properly and my system was charged.It has been over a week and we have had no issues with our ac.I am very pleased with the service provided because they responded quickly, were honest, and only charged the service fee.

    Fixed our broken A/C. Vacuumed the space. Used an UV to kill any bacteria. Very professional and accommodating.
