    1st Choice Air Comfort takes pride in their work
    Robert, Matt, and Peccio were amazing. Robert, when he first arrived, took the time to speak to me and conduct a thorough inspection of the issue with the water heater. Robert clearly articulated, and showed me, how the unit was compromised and got to my level of understanding. The following day, Matt and Peccio arrived on time to remove and replace the water heater. Both gentlemen's thoroughness, efficiency, and respect for my home was remarkable. It's clear that 1st Choice Air Comfort takes pride in their work, makes steps to support employees, and do right by their consumers.

    I highly recommend 1st Choice Heating and AC.
    I have been most impressed with 1st Choice Heating and AC from my first call to get an estimate for new heating and air conditioning units to the thorough visit to my home and the extensive estimates provided by Chris to the excellent two-day installation of my new units by Pex and Matt. I want to commend Pex and Matt for their hard work, attention to detail, and great communication during the installation. They completed the work over two days. The second day was extremely long for Pex and Matt as there were some complications. I was so impressed with their diligence and hard work over the eight-plus hours they were completing our complex installation. They were very professional and responsive to my questions and concerns. I highly recommend 1st Choice Heating and AC for all of your HVAC needs.

    He knew exactly what the problem was!
    First-time homebuyer and had an issue with our AC unit. First, we called AJ Perri on an impulse and thought they fixed the issue, but it turns out the tech changed a wire and our unit was constantly running for over a month straight… which led to a $500 electric bill! Sean from 1st Choice was here and in less than 10 minutes he knew exactly what the problem was! He was extremely detailed and did a great maintenance clean. We are now customers for life. Thanks, Sean!

    Their membership/maintenance package is a great deal
    I reached out to Chris recently about trouble with my AC system. He was able to educate me on my system along with giving me multiple options as to how to approach my problem. My previous HVAC guy did not do a thorough job doing this after installing my system. The next day, one of Chris’ technicians came out to service my system. Their membership/maintenance package is a great deal considering the amount of work the technician did, and their crew are all very kind. This was my first experience with them and it won’t be the last.
