After my AC unit broke, I was able to make an appointment right away and Georgy came to my home promptly. He diagnosed the issue in minutes, explained the considerations and costs, and repaired my unit in minutes. He also discussed what things to look out for in the future so I would know when to call him for help. Everything got done quickly and my AC is back and working well again! Thank you!

Restart HVAC did a very clean installation of our new heat-pump system with air handlers and new ducting. Despite initial complications with Mitsubishi model configurations, issues were resolved professionally to meet all our expectations. Georgy and his team are very conscientious about customer satisfaction, and we can highly recommend this company.
