We've had a couple HVAC companies come in over the summer to figure out why our A/C unit wouldn't kick in but they all came up short. Once Van came to troubleshoot, we finally had cool air circulating through the house again. Of course come winter our Nest thermostat starts displaying an error when we try to start the heater. Van came out again, found a problem with the wiring and let us know exactly what was going on. Honest and reliable. Our family appreciates you!

My A/C condenser unit stopped working yesterday. Gave Van a call and he walked me through a couple things over the phone and then said he would come over and take a look. 15 minutes later he arrived and not even 10 minutes after that, my A/C was running again!
A fuse had blown and just needed to be replaced - he took care of it for FREE!
My family has used Van's services for about 15 years now on two different properties and both my wife and I recommend Airmakers to anyone who needs HVAC. They have always been well priced, professional, punctual and friendly.
Thanks again Van! :D

After deciding we wanted to install air conditioning we received 3 bids. Our home was built in the 1970's so it had challenges for installation. We were able to discuss our concerns with Airmakers owner Van Johnson. He is very knowledgeable and discussed all our options, giving us honest advice. He was willing to negotiate and gave us a very good price, significantly lower than the other bids.

The Airmakers installers were very professional and skilled, they completed the installation efficiently and exactly to how we wanted, exceeding our expectations.

We were so impressed with Airmakers

Our old A/C system was getting noisier and the fan on the top of unit didn't always start turning when the unit came on. We called Airmakers and Van came out the next day and looked it over - he explained we could fix the unit we had or replace it with another one with the same energy rating and it wouldn't cost too much.
We talked Van into to upgrading our air conditioner and furnace to a SEER 16 system to save a little on the monthly bill but mostly to get a quieter system and get everything replaced at one time by the same company (the setup we had was from 3 different installers)

Very professional service and responsive to our needs. Originally scheduled a quote to have a mini split installed due to a Costco-affiliated air conditioning and heating company quoting us over $10k for central air conditioning. The owner came out himself for the quote, inspected what he was working with and instead of having us pay nearly the same to have a mini split installed, quoted us a reasonable central air conditioning proposal with top quality equipment for half of the Costco-affiliated quote. Within the week, we had brand new top-end central air for an affordable price. Runs smoothly

We used Airmakers for a furnace replacement and adding air conditioning to our 1970's home. Van came out quickly when we asked for an estimate and was incredibly honest. His quote was substantially less than others we had received. He didn't seem to be trying to sell us a bunch of equipment/modifications that we didn't need which is how we felt during our other quotes. The installation went smoothly and promptly on schedule. We couldn't be happier with our new system and the honesty and integrity of this company.

The heater at our new house wouldn't turn on so I called Airmakers because we had used them a couple times at our previous home. Van has always done great work and been conservative in his diagnosis of what needs to be repaired/replaced. He's reliable, shows up on time and gets right to work. He's always given us a good price as well. This time he came and was up in the attic where our furnace is for awhile working on it. When he came down it had started working again and he said he had just had to adjust some things and tighten the connection of a part that had been jostled loose. He said there

After the recent heatwaves, I finally decided to get AC installed. Since my furnace was original to the 1970s construction house, I needed to get that replaced as well to fit an AC coil on top.

How the process went...I first called Airmakers and left a voicemail. The next day, a woman returned my call and was able to schedule an onsite estimate the very next day. Van the owner came out to give the estimate and seemed like an straightforward guy that doesn't resort to marketing gimmicks. He checked the furnace closet, the breaker panel, and the existing registers and gave me a really competitive

Our air-conditioning was installed in April 2017. I received quotes from 5 companies, one of them being Airmakers. I phoned for an appointment & Van arrived the next day. The woman who answered wasn't friendly, but wasn't rude either. He's a direct, no frills type of guy - which works great since he saves you a ton of money while providing quality products & work.

His quote included a new furnace (ours was still functional for central heating but not recommended for AC), condenser, thermostat, a new duct to our room addition & new registers throughout the house. His

Van Johnson is amazing. Our heater was not working and a prior company had recommended a complete replacement for a couple thousands dollars... my handyman referred us to Van for a second opinion and he came promptly the very next day and diagnosed a small part replacement need and fixed it in 5 minutes for less than $200. He performs an honest and accurate job and we are so grateful for his work!! Highly highly recommended!!

Van Johnson and Airmakers did a great job with my new AC unit. I probably had about 5 people come out for quotes. Van was very competitive on price, but not my absolute lowest quote. However, he seemed the most trustworthy, knew what he was talking about, didn't sound like he was trying to BS me, and really wanted to get my business. I just had the best gut feeling with him. His team installed my unit quickly, cleaned everything up, and I had cold air blowing again in no time.

I also had him come back another time, and increase the air flow in a couple of rooms.
The job took his guys

We noticed an odd smell one morning in our home after using the heater overnight on a rare cold night in San Diego. I immediately imagine the worst case scenarios and start reviewing my stop drop and roll techniques fearing our home would burst into flames at any moment. My next step is to obviously go on yelp and find professional help. Van from Airmakers was great! He fit us in later in the day and came promptly at the time scheduled. He checked out our heating unit and vents and luckily found nothing but a dirty old filter that needed changing. The great thing about SD is that you rarely need

We moved into our home about a year and a half ago. Although the we don't use our AC much, we hadn't noticed a problem. During this summer's hot spell we noticed the AC cycling over and over yet it seemed the AC wasn't doing its job. Lucky for us, the prior owner left the paperwork for the installation of the AC. The unit was only 4 years old. At first we thought it might be a bad thermostat, but that didn't pan out. So we called Airmakers and Van came out the next day. He went through the AC and discovered the refrigerant was low. He filled the unit with refrigerant and

Came back from out of town to a heat wave & no cool air...to make things worse my spring broke on my garage door. Luckily while the repairman was fixing it he noticed an Airmakers truck in my neighbors driveway. Van came over & it was a simple fix but he had to rush to the warehouse to get the part before they closed. Van had my air conditioner up & running in minutes. Great Company & I am all for supporting local family businesses over the big guys!

The guys at Airmakers support the products that they sell. I bought a system from Van about 3 years ago and for some reason the coolant level recently started to slowly decrease over several months. After notifying Van of the issue, he sent his team to run a comprehensive diagnostic test on the system and they ended up locating a very small leak in one of the accessory components. Because Van warranties his products and work, the component was replaced at absolutely no cost to me. His team is extremely professional, respectful, and they leave your house as clean as when they arrived.

Highly recommended

Van and his team are great! Good service, good prices and even the slightest little problem with the system and they're on the way to check it out. Van's crew installed A/C for me a little over 2 years ago. Since then, there have been two small issues (none of which were related to the install) and the team came out both times (at no charge) to see what was wrong.

Highly recommend using Airmakers for service or install! Thanks Van!!

Airmakers installed our Bryant heater and air conditioner a couple of years ago. It worked great up until a couple of weeks ago when we stopped getting cool air. We called Airmakers, and Van came out the very same day and fixed the problem (apparently you have to change the filter every few months... still learning how to adult over here). I was surprised he could come the very same day, and that meant a lot to me as I work from home.

Fantastic installation and continued service! I'd recommend this company to anyone.

My project was to move my AC Condenser from the back of my house to the side of my house.
BEST PRICE, QUALITY WORK, PROMPT , PROFESSIONAL
At first it sounded to good to be true. He had an opening the very next morning. The work was done, they cleaned up, it looks great. They gave me a LIFETIME warranty on their workmanship and their parts.
Bottom line, the beast I call my condenser has been moved so it is no longer an eye sore in my yard, it is quieter for my family when we are at the patio table dining or chatting and my AC works perfectly! They take pride in their work and want their customer

Excellent service. Van changed out an old condenser we had with a new Bryant system. While working on it, my neighbor came over and asked Van to give him a quote on replacing his central AC. Great work on both accounts. Very pleased we hired Airmakers heating and air.
