    Quite happy to have those guys to install a gas line and a garage heater. Everything was done with excellent craftsmanship, on time and as agreed. Price was reasonable as well. Definetely will consider and recommend Air Force for future projects.

    A level above the rest! Ivan and his crew did a fantastic job moving our A/C unit and installing a heating system in our garage. They were completely on time, on budget, and very reasonably priced. What really stood out was the great respect they showed for our home and yard. They used drop cloths inside and tarps outside, taking extra care to minimize the mess and clean up after themselves completely. We’ve used other Plumbing & HVAC contractors in the past who were just okay, but Air Force's service quality was a level above all of them. Highly recommend!

    Air Force Heating did an excellent job removing our old hot water tank and installing a new Navien tankless water heater at a very competitive price !! The technicians were professional, knowledgeable, and completed the installation efficiently. They took the time to answer my questions, cleaned up after the job, and made sure everything was working properly before leaving. Very happy with the quality of work and the improved hot water system. I would definitely recommend Air Force Heating to anyone considering a tankless water heater upgrade.

    Excellent experience with Ivan and his team, install on my AC unit was fast, like 4 hours! Guys were clean and courteous. I would 10/10 recommend them and use them for their other HVAC services!

    The process was top notch through the whole process: 1) They answered the request for a quote quickly (I'm surprised when other companies called back 3-4 days later). They came the next day at the agreed upon time. 2) The quote was reasonable and about $50 less than others (tight market). 3) The installation was scheduled quickly, and done well the following week. 4) It appears as if the work was done professionally with an attention to detail. It's still too cold to see how everything works, but will update the review as needed. 4) Communication was prompt and helpful. I would recommend Ivan and Air Force Heating in the future.

    Eight Signs It's Replacement Time

    A water heater rarely fails without warning — but the warning window is short. Spot these signs early and you'll replace on your schedule, not at 2 AM with a flooded basement.

    • Tank is 10+ years old
    • Visible rust at the connections or base
    • Water pooling under the tank — even slow leaks
    • Rusty hot water from every tap
    • Repeat repairs in the same year
    • Heating element or thermostat failed twice
    • Repair quote is more than half the cost of new
    • Loud popping or rumbling that won't quiet after a flush
