Marcos was knowledgeable, helpful and good to work with. We wanted to repair our heating and he got it working again quickly without pressuring us to replace our heater. He’s also followed upWith us after too.Service: Heating system repair

We highly recommend Rivera's Heating and Air Conditioning. We worked with Marcos Rivera and his team on three major home projects: a new Carrier efficient furnace to replace the original vintage furnace; Next, much needed new ducting when we completed an earthquake foundation retrofit; and recently installing a new central air conditioning system with an air purifying filter. Each project was completed on time and within our budget despite our home's challenging tight crawl spaces. For the AC project, we got four bids and the other contractors proposed that we install a 4 or 5 ton AC unit. Marcos had a much better approach. He completed a state of the art Heat Load Calculation which concluded that a 3- 1/2 ton compressor unit would be optimal - thus saving us significant money on the total energy cost of running the AC. The same Heat Load Calculation also concluded that some of our existing duct work needed to be upsized in order to create a maximally efficient AC system. Neither of the other contractors even mentioned the need for a Heat Load Calculation or a need to assess the size of our ducting. Had we gone with one of them we would likely have had the most inefficient AC system: A needlessly oversized compressor unit and undersized ducting leading and a higher electric bill and waste of energy. Marcos and family have been a pleasure to work with. They minimize the impact of their work and are very responsive to all of our questions. We highly recommend that you consult them about any HVAC needs.

Rivera installed a new HVAC system in our house, which included adding air conditioning. This was a difficult job because of the age of our house, and they did an excellent job. They made a great effort to give us the best system possible and were able to make the system more energy efficient than the original proposal. They were reliable and cleaned up after themselves at the end of each day. They were also very careful about safety protocols for COVID. I would highly recommend them and satisfied that they take the time to do quality work.
