Riley identified the fried capacitor in my AC unit and fixed it on the same day. Just in time for the heat wave. Great knowledge and communication. Upfront and transparent pricing, reasonable rates. Very happy with the service.

The previous HVAC tech was unable to fix the ac issue in my house. he referred me to Riley. Riley came by and spent a few hours on my unit and got it working. he went above and beyond and I could not be happier with the service. Highly recommend his service because he will get it done 100%. Super satisfied customer!!!

We recently had Penguin HVAC come out to correct a couple of issues with our heat pump, and we couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. From the very beginning, Riley, the owner, made a great impression. He was genuine, honest, and took the time to thoroughly assess the issues. Rather than offering a quick fix, he came up with a thoughtful plan to properly address the problems and ensure everything was done right. It was clear he genuinely cares about his customers and stands behind his company’s work. When it came time to complete the repairs, Caleb and Jim were outstanding—professional, friendly, efficient, and incredibly helpful. They quickly identified issues from the original installation, explained everything clearly, and did an exceptional job correcting them. Their workmanship and attention to detail were second to none. The pricing was very fair, especially considering the quality of the work and the level of customer service we received. It’s refreshing to deal with a company that values doing things properly and treating customers with respect. We will definitely be using Penguin HVAC again for any future HVAC needs and for our annual maintenance service. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Riley and his team to anyone looking for knowledgeable, trustworthy, and professional HVAC service.

We had Penguin HVAC help us with a small but surprisingly complicated commercial HVAC project involving an existing Daikin system, ducting, fresh air, and very specific temperature needs for a product storage space. From the beginning, Riley was transparent and fair with pricing, and he set expectations clearly. What stood out most was that the job turned out to be more involved than originally anticipated, but Riley and Caleb stayed patient, thorough, and committed to getting it right. Because we have an exposed ceiling, the ducting was going to be very visible, and they took the time to make sure it actually looked great — not just functional. That level of care really stood out. Caleb also worked over a weekend to help us hit our move-in date, and still took the time to walk me through the system and explain how everything worked, even when he was under time pressure. That kind of care and professionalism is rare. I really appreciated how ethical, hardworking, and honest they were throughout the process. After receiving higher and less transparent quotes from other companies, working with Penguin felt refreshing. They were practical, fair, and genuinely focused on finding the right solution rather than upselling. I would absolutely recommend Penguin HVAC to anyone looking for knowledgeable, honest, and reliable HVAC support.

Our furnace was dying and I am glad we showed Riley and his team. They made time and were able to diagnose the issue while presenting our options. I never felt pressured and the quote we received was fair based on the service being offered (furnace replacement). Riley took the time to make sure everything was working well. We will definitely call them in the future for our heating needs.

I had Penguin come in to fix the ventilation of my dryer. They were prompt, communicated well, and came in under estimate. I was very impressed with the service I received.

Highly recommend Riley and Caleb who helped retrofit a very odd air circulation system the builder put in, to bring to code with a HRV unit. I’ll turn to them for all my HVAC needs. They were punctual, transparent, hard working, and exceeded our expectations. Thanks lads!

So thankful there are still good working ethics around in the area. Ridley found the root cause of the issue and recommended season-appropriate timing for the next step. No “changing the whole system” kind of unethical selling (which I have personally experienced with other heating and cooling services company), every dollar was well spent for his professional work!!! 👍🏻👍🏻

Riley (and team) took on our huge project (new heat pump and attic ducting upstairs, and a replacement dual fuel furnace downstairs). They took time to answer questions, stayed true to their quote, helped us with the rebate process, took care of pre-assessment, design, install, permits and inspections, and overall did excellent work. Riley not only does great work, but is clearly a deep SME on HVAC best practices and all related know-how. Would recommend and hire again!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Penguin HVAC was awesome to work with! Their team showed up on time, diagnosed the issue quickly, and explained everything clearly before starting.

Highly recommend them if you need reliable HVAC work done!

I trusted Riley with diagnosing my aircon system but was disappointed. He was quick to charge payment, after taking a long time to come up with the wrong diagnosis. My system was eventually fixed by a reputable company as a simple drain pan leak.

What a great experience - from the initial meeting, straight forward answers to our questions, simple and easy to understand quote (with nothing hidden) and no trying to upsell. We couldn't be happier with the service. Riley and the team were true professionals - we heartily recommend Penguin HVAC.

I recently needed to replace my 15 year old HRV System and I used Penguin HVAC to get the work done. Riley did an extremely professional job when diagnosing the problem and provided me with a quote and the work was done on budget and on time with no surprises on the bill. The guys who installed the unit with Riley supervising were total champs having to work in our very hot attic and got the work done exactly as planned. I wouldn't hesitate to use or recommend Penguin. Thanks Riley and team for making this a stress free experience.
