Tech Mr. Richard Hilstad was very professional, explained what was being done every inch of the way. He showed me how the heater worked and all the parts he inspected. Replace the needed Heater Igniter part. The one in the heater was partially had turned white, it should be all black, as he showed me the new part. Of course I wanted it replaced otherwise mid winter the heater would not have worked, that would have been an extra $$ for a house visit! He had brought an air filter, I told him it was replaced only few months ago and it should be fine. But he said he would check it to see if that was the case. It was dirty, he replaced it. I have joined their Home Comfort Club so the air filter did not cost me anything and neither his services, I just had to pay for the Heater Igniter part. He also thanked me for having such a clean heater inside and out! As a woman I had never paid attention to heaters, A/Cs or anything else like that but I was happy how he showed it all to me. He took his time, answered my questions, set up the thermostated as I wanted. Previous services from the Sierra Air and their technicians made me a believer to have them take care of my house. Our house was brand new when we moved in on Feb 2004. Of course as years go by things wear out, need new parts. They are such a delight to do business with, I will be with the for a long time. Thank you Sierra Air!
Description of Work: It was getting the heater ready for winter, Also, set up the thermostat for both A/C & Heater. Changed the Air Filter.

Great, didn't realize it was the original system installed when the house was built (1973), it's 44 years old and it still keeps the house cool. But it's time to up grade.

Exceptionally well. Over 100% satisfied.
Description of Work: The air filter changed, ducts cleaned, etc. They also cleaned the dryer vent, included in their service. They even took out the air vents out, cleaned them so well that it looked like brand new! No other company I had doing the same service had done this before. I am not a technical type of person but I know what they performed was incredible. They worked hard and long but got the work done. Arrived on time and told me it would take about 3 hrs to get this done, and they were correct on the estimate of time. They vacuumed the areas that they had worked and small things fell out of the air vents. When they left the whole house was so fresh and smelled so much better. I will hire them as long as I live. I asked how the air vent could be fixed so I would not freeze to death while working on my computer. That was fixed too. Anything I asked for them to do, it was done to my satisfaction. Find out for yourself, you will understand what I mean.

The tech arrived at stated time, introduced himself, was shown where units were located and he went to work. The tech. was neat and clean, dressed in a company white shirt with his name. He easily explained what he was accomplishing if I asked. One part needed replacement in the compressor which he showed me the results and difference between the operation with the new part. The work areas were kept clean and tech wore booties whenever entering the home to perform work. The price paid included cleaning and servicing two a.c. compressors and parts and labor for one unit and two new filters.

Took about 40 minutes and was charged $239.40 for labor, and $89 for Diagnostic. Part was $159.60, yet I had to pay $488, seems pretty high in my opinion. It took almost a month to get an itemized receipt.

[Member Name Removed], We appreciate you reaching out. We understand your frustrations, and we want to go over a list of things that are accounted for when we set our pricing: - The cost of the part. - The sales tax. - The markup of the parts. - Labor - The service van that is stocked with multiple parts. - Pre-hire background checks and drug screens to assure your family's safety. - Random drug screens. - Professional uniforms for a neat clean appearance. - Ongoing training and certifications for all of our technicians. - A small amount toward our overhead so we can hire and retain a top level office staff to address any needs our internal and external customers may have. - A 1-year guarantee on both parts and labor on the specific repair. If the part fails within the first year we will replace at no charge. [Member Name Removed], we appreciate your business and at the end of the day, we want all of our customers to be satisfied. If you have any additional questions feel free to contact us at any time.

I think I am probably going to call them soon and have them service my heat/furnace. They seem to be very good in what they are doing. The price is probably right in there, it’s right down in there with about 3 or 4 service agents in Reno. They are very competitive. Quality is good, they tell me what is going on. I wasn’t in a rush and they came out within day, I think. If I had been in a rush they would have come out that day if it was an emergency, but it wasn’t. They set the appointment and called to make sure it was still good just before they arrived. I watched what they were doing and they explained what they were doing. I would recommend them to others, they are a good reputable company. I was pretty happy with what they advised me.
Description of Work: The stuff that I don’t do myself, I change my own filters and everything. I generally try to use Sierra Air. They looked at my air system overall and advised me on some other things that I really should have changed, which we haven’t done yet because it was in the winter. They advised us that our venting is not quite the right size and that needs to be redone. Now it is time to reservice it again, they serviced it when they were out. It probably cost close to $100 because they adjusted the jets and then the other was a quote for doing some changes.

They set a date, said it would take one day. They installed in one day, on the date agreed upon, as advised (other quotes were for 1-2 day, 1-2 weeks out). Their two employees were both very professional in all their interactions and how they treated our house. Mitsubishi product is excellent.

I payed top dollar, more than two other bidders, and got a home air conditioning system that was grossly inadequate. The system that they installed was of lower capacity than the other bidders were going to install and it cost me more. This month I'm going to get the system replaced by someone else.

Job took a day and a half. Had to come back 2 days later for dryer vent. Glitches were found and corrected promptly. Heat pump in Reno area is a fairly new idea, at 35 degrees heating from heat pump will automatically switch to oil and above 35 deg will switch back to heat pump. So far all is well. The Sierra HVAC team were all courteous, professional, and took time to explain all details of installation.
Description of Work: Replace 24 year old a/c and oil heater with a heat pump/ac and new oil heater. Replaced air ducts from 1960 with new insulated flex ducting. Hooked up new above ground heating oil tank. Extended dryer vent to outside.

RJ was the tech that came out. He was very polite, courteous, professional, caring, and overall a very wonderful individual. From the very first time I received a phone call from them, in August, I have received nothing but professional and courteous, 1 on 1, customer service. Every person I have spoken with, including the owner, have all been warm and wonderful individuals. This company offers a payment plan with no interest charges, which is very rare and unbelievably good customer service to me.

The men who came to our home were very intelligent, knowledgeable about the product, and hard-working. They went into the attic and crawled under the house without skipping a beat! The installation was done in great time and the techs knew what they were doing! I cannot believe how fast they did the job, but more importantly, they did the job so that we know it will provide heat and air conditioning when we need it! They tested and re-tested the controls and made sure everything was complete before leaving! If you are getting work done of this type, use Sierra Air! They Rock!!!
Description of Work: Sierra Air installed a heat pump/airconditioner on our existing system (heater).
