Careful HVAC work for Inglewood.

We repair, replace and fine-tune heating and cooling for homes and businesses — and set up the thermostat so it actually does what you want.

Homes on one side. Businesses on the other.

Same tools, same care, different priorities. A family wants quiet and comfort; a shop wants the doors open and the customers cool.

Most asked about

Will a smart thermostat work with my system?

Usually — but it depends on the wires behind the old one. Our wire checker tells you what you've got in about a minute.

  1. Turn off the power

    At the breaker for the furnace or air handler.

  2. Lift off the old thermostat

    Leave the wires connected to the wall plate.

  3. Read the letters

    Note which terminals have a wire, and tick them in the checker.
