“Aaron came over and helped my dad and I with our air conditioner. He was very respectful and nice. He was very efficient and did the job quick! Thank you Aaron and RC!”
“It’s not fun having a broken air conditioner, especially with guest in the house. We called RC Heating & Cooling which we have used in the past and will use in the future. Eric and his crew diagnosed the problem and had everything up and running efficiently, as quickly as possible, with a fair price. We couldn’t ask for anything better. Call them when you need them, I’m confident you’ll be pleased.”
“Our AC stopped cooling and we had them come out in July. They were kind, and very professional. They searched for a leak before giving us freon. They were very thorough in checking our system for a leak. The price was reasonable and I was absolutely thrilled to have our AC fixed and be comfortable for the remainder of the summer. I appreciate their service so much and I would reccomend them to any one.”
“RC Heating & Cooling came and repaired my AC unit within a couple of days! They were great and fair pricing.”
“Excellent customer service. I called and got a same day diagnostic. It was super helpful.”
