The guys came on time and were very friendly and professional. They did the job in 1 day. They answered all questions I had. Only wish I could get the same service with other home contractors. Thank you Essential Heating and Air.

Kevin was an exceptional sales rep. Knowledgeable, responsive, respectful. The crew did a great job on a new furnace and hot water heater, heat pump install, old ducting replacement, and electrical panel upgrade. Very happy, highly recommend.

Did everything they promised. Gave me a good price for a Mitsubishi mini-split system. Installers showed up when scheduled and banged out the job in the timeframe promised. Cleaned up after themselves and went over their work with me thoroughly.

We just had our furnace and air conditioning installed on Monday. Great deal and great company! City of Marysville inspected the installation today and said it was one of the best installations they have seen in a long time. They were shocked by the warranty and once we told them it was Essential Heating and Air, they said they are consistently one of the best around. Call Essential Heating and Air. You won’t be disappointed!

Dom was right on the schedule he communicated once in his way. He listened carefully to my concerns and professionally set about his business checking temps and times. He communicated that he had done some research to understand a curious issue and we talked through it and agreed that made sense. He finished up after testing the complete system, made sure I was happy with what he had done and left me as very happy customer. Excellent service. Very pleased.

They were able to meet our budget, arrive next day, finish the job and leave it looking great. We replaced a Mr Cool mini split system with an upgraded Durastar system. Very pleased with the service and the results.

I was on vacation during the month of the Heat Pump and Furnace installation, so I had plenty of time to do research, get quotes, and analyze what HVAC companies had to offer. By far, Essential Heating & Air was better in every area I cared about; the cost, timeline, brand, guarantees, and maintenance program were better than all of the competition. Discussing other quotes and the Essential Price Match Guarantee helped put them on top. The work was completed the very NEXT DAY. Everything was fast, high-quality, and exactly as promised in the estimate. There was one small item missing in the Mechanical Permit Inspection, but it was addressed and fixed under their No Change Order Guarantee. I have had nothing but exceptional experiences with Essential Heating and Air and with every single employee. Kevin was an excellent Estimator who really addressed all of my questions and concerns for the project. Kevin even went the extra mile(s) to meet with the rest of my family to further address their concerns. Aaron from Electric and Viktor from HVAC truly listened to the positioning needs of the system in our space and were able to install properly and in the particular way that worked best for us. Viktor especially was able to provide a lot of valuable information about the old dirty system and the brand new system installed. Viktor and, I think, Vlad were very kind and helpful in the long installation process. Michael was really quick to address the correction to the Mechanical Permit. It was extremely quick and well done. Anna and Desiree at the office were really helpful with scheduling and other general information. I could not imagine choosing another company after the wonderful experience I have had. I highly recommend Essential Heating and Air because of their quality and consistency.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Essential did an outstanding job! From start to finish, their work was professional, clean, and very well done. The kitchen was especially important to me because I’m a chef, and I pay close attention to functionality, layout, and details. They absolutely delivered. The kitchen turned out amazing—everything was done exactly the way I wanted it, and I couldn’t be happier with the final result. I compared several companies before choosing Essential, and they offered a very fair and competitive price without sacrificing quality. Excellent craftsmanship, fair pricing, and great attention to detail. I would definitely hire Essential again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality work. Thanks Antony
