Mike is amazing, he is so well prepared and polite. He made a clear and reliable diagnosis and offered the best option to fix my issue. You can tell that he is not selling you but just providing you the best options. Thanks Mike!

Went ok. I won't use DunRite again, as I can't trust them to pay attention to the details. Of 3 bids, they were cheapest and they seemed honest and knowledgeable. all seemed to go well but, it wasn't until 9 months later, that "cracks" started to show. Compressors (both units) started leaking oil/coolant. I called and emailed DunRite 6 or more times and never could get a return call from them. Finally I called another Service technician. He came out and found that some caps on both units had not been properly tightened. He also pointed out some improper gas connection and wiring, and a few details the installer (DunRite) could have taken 10 mins to do better. Overall, DunRite did "ok" but, you have to watch them closely. During the house review, before the install, I noticed they were taking no notes about house sizes, number of existing vents, etc and consequently, they almost installed the wrong size compressor in one house. I actually caught it and pointed it out to them. They were very punctual, before and during installation. They were also clean and professional. Installed Payne units, which seem to be working fine.

When I called DunRite Heating & Air Inc, Mike Wood, the owner, gave me a lot of excellent information over the phone about the best quality heaters. Mike is very straightforward. He provides an estimate and sticks to it. He does not try to up sale.
Mike came out to the house to look at the old heater to make sure the new heater would be the correct one. It turned out that he could install the new heater the same day.
Two of the installers, Jesse and Dilbert, came to install the new heater. They were obviously very knowledgeable and very professional. They finished installing the heater in less time than Mike had estimated. Jesse and Dilbert turned on the new heater and it worked beautifully. Mike also installed a new thermostat to go with the new heater.
I will do business again with DunRite Heating & Air whenever I have future heating needs.
This is why I love doing business with small businesses and/or family owned businesses. They treat customers with respect and consideration. I highly recommend DunRite Heating & Air!

When the A/C and the furnace for my 38-yr old unit at my
rental condo in Campbell, stopped working, I called a serviceman who found
cracks in the combustion chamber of the heater. He condemned the heater and
shutoff the gas. He also found the A/C unit still operational after he changed
the thermostat. He said he would provide me with a proposal for replacing the
heater and also one for replacing both the heater and the air conditioner at
the same time. The proposal for replacing the heater came after 10 days, but
the one I was really interested in (replacing both units) never came. I
followed up with the company twice by email and have had no response yet. So I
contacted another A+ rated company on Angie?s List: DunRite Heating and Air
Inc.
Michael Wood, owner of DunRite, came over the next morning to
examine the installation. He was very knowledgeable, articulate and explained
the details in an easy-to-understand manner. He suggested replacing the air-intake
grille so the filter could be replaced easily from inside the house without
having to go to the furnace. He quoted a firm, very reasonable price free of
contingencies.
 The installers, James and Clay, came on time and completed
the job the same day. They were polite, orderly and efficient.
I am very pleased with DunRite and intend to use their
services for my other properties and highly recommend it to others in need of
heating/air conditioning services.
 

pleasant personable
lots of talk but little actually done,
no cleaning of very dirty fan.
no lubricating of any moving parts.
lots of discourse re his honesty and longevity.
tried to sell his brother's duct cleaning service.
definitely NOT WORTH THE MONEY

I received two referrals for AC repair outside of Angie's list.  Did a quick search for reviews and saw that Dunrite had a good rating on Angie's List.   I called Dunrite on Tuesday morning to see when I could get our unit repaired.  I was told that they could get me on the schedule for Wednesday, but due to the volume of calls they had, they could not be sure when they could make it out.  I received a call Tuesday evening and was told that they could be at my home in 15 minutes to take a look at my problem.  Within an hour of that call, they came out, diagnosed my problem and had my AC back in working order.  Very much appreciated the quick response, especially with warm weather on the way.

The results were a quick success, considering he had reviewed the schematics / diagram of my electric heater prior and made sure all the wires were in the correct spot, some had to be fixed, so the 2nd time when he came on New Years Day he knew exactly what to do to fix it 100%.  We had to wait for him to get the part from the mfg. of my heater first, but that was understandable.  It all went relatively quickly considering it was the holidays.

Twas two nights before Christmas, and all through the house,
the heat was not working, to h*** with the mouse.  Okay, enough stupid poetry.  I called 5 furnace repair companies from my
research on Yelp and Angie?s List two days before Christmas.  Only one, DunRite, even answered the
phone.  Mike came right over that day and
quickly diagnosed that our 10 year old Trane furnace had a bad control card.  While at our place, he was able to find the
replacement card in Benecia after a few phone calls and with more than a little
luck, they had a truck coming down the next morning and could bring it with
them.  Jesse installed the card on
Christmas Eve afternoon and we were back in business.  Huge kudos to Mike and Jesse and the whole
DunRite organization for a job well done. 
We were very pleased.  (By the
way, we learned that Trane furnaces are very very difficult to get parts for,
at least on the West Coast, and very few parts are interchangeable.  On the other hand, Carrier Furnace Co. parts
are very interchangeable between models and the parts distribution center is in
San Jose.  Keep that it mind if you are
buying a new furnace!)

My furnace stopped working around 4 PM on Tuesday afternoon....temperature very cold in the house.  Very cold overnight and woke up to 35 degrees outside.  Called DunRite early morning on Wednesday hoping to get service same day but it's New Years Eve.  Happily, Mike called me back and said he would get here today.  He arrived shortly after noon time and fixed the heating problem and replaced my thermostat with a programmable one.  Great service, knew exactly what he was doing and was very pleasant to speak with.  Had all completed and was on to his next appointment within 1/2 hour.  I will definitely use him for all my future heating and air-conditioning needs and will happily refer him to my friends and neighbors!  Thanks so much for such quick and efficient service, Mike!

Great. He went above and beyond to get my furnace fixed on Christmas Eve. My furnace is so old he didn't have a part for it on his truck, but he called around, found an open store on Christmas Eve and went, got the part and fixed the thing. Start to finish less than 3 hours.

Once again, my Lennox furnace would not come on.  This has been an ongoing issue for many years.  I was very "turned off" by furnace repair companies from past experiences.  My initial thought was "here we go again"!  I called a few companies that said that they had "24 hour service" only to be told that they could come out in 3 - 4 days.  They also had that "call center" feeling.  Then I called DunRite.  It was a Sunday morning, and I thought why not give them a call. They do also advertise service all weekend, but I have to admit, I wasn't very hopeful!  Within 10 minutes of my initial call the Owner, Mike, called me to ask what the issue was.  I told him and he said that he would have his technician there by noon that same day.  Jesse arrived on time and was very pleasant and courteous.  He got the unit working within 20 minutes. While he could not find an issue with it, just had to open it up,  I am just grateful for the furnace working.  While I'm not convinced it won't  happen again (because of the past issues, nothing to do with DunRite), I am very pleased that I called DunRite, and if it does happen again they will be my first call.  I also plan to begin to use them for maintenance of my Furnace and AC units.

He came,did his job and left. He did a good job

Provided very good flat rate, arrived promptly and quickly replaced the unit.  They encountered some unforeseen problems with the flue, but fixed it without any extra charge.  A few weeks later, the furnace developed a problem due to a manufacturer defect.  DunRite's owner, Mike,  came out himself came out the same day, ordered the replacement part and was able to fix it without any hassle or charge.  From dealing with Mike, he takes customer service and satisfaction very seriously, would definitely use them again.

I am so satisfied with the work Mike preformed. Additionally, his knowledge of my air conditioning unit was top notch. For the part and amount of time required to fix it, I'm satisfied.

I called and explained the issue and the owner (I think) said that there was definitely a problem, but was busy right then and would call me back shortly.  After three hours, I called back and explained that I had called earlier.  His reply was basically, "Well if you say so" and not very friendly.  I launched into the problem description then and he said "Now I remember you".  No apology for never calling back.  He said that he would have someone out at 4:00.  The technician called an said he was delayed and got there about 5:00.  The technician checked and said that there was no longer a clog in the pipe.  He was checking the outside compressor and found that a valve had been installed backwards.  He told me that we should shut down the air conditioner immediately and not use it and that they would call back the next morning with an estimate.  We researched it on the internet and found that yes the valve was installed backwards, but while it wasn't optimal it was not dangerous.  DunRite never called back with the estimate.

I thoroughly recommend DunRite Heating & Air Inc we found them to be a punctual, reputable and honest company. Owner Mike Wood and crew arrived on time and performed the recommended service with a fair price. I would use DunRite again for any future HVAC needs we may encounter.

Did a great  job ... showed up on time and price was very competitive.  Jesse, the technician, was very thorough and honest i.e. no attempt to sell us more than we needed ... I'll really appreciate that!
