I have been a long-term customer of this company since I purchased my home. The service they provide is excellent, from their prompt communication, timely alerts, and responsive handling of my inquiries. The technicians who visit my home for maintenance checkups are also excellent, always professional in their conduct. Eduardo, in particular, has serviced my furnace and air conditioner numerous times, and he has been consistently pleasant, engaging, and competent, truly representing the company well.
The service I received was excellent. Carlos informed me of his arrival time and promptly showed up, maintaining a courteous demeanor. He worked efficiently and patiently took the time to guide me through the process of programming the thermostat once again.
I have been a loyal customer of First Choice for over seven years, and their service has consistently been outstanding. I manage several vacation rentals in the Palm Springs area, and recently faced an issue with the HVAC systems. They responded immediately, sending a technician on the same day to address the problems in both units. I was particularly impressed with technician Carlos Portillo, who arrived on time and provided excellent customer service.
When the weather became hot, my AC unit encountered an issue, as one might expect. I contacted First Choice, and they dispatched a technician within a few hours, which I greatly appreciated. Carlos arrived and swiftly resolved the necessary repairs. I couldn't have asked for better service. Thank you, thank you.
The service provided was great, and the technician was very thorough. They recommended a few maintenance add-ons for my aging system, which made a lot of sense. Although I decided to hold off on those additions for now, as my system is quite old and I will likely need a new one that comes with these features, the technician explained everything clearly, and I feel I made an informed decision.
