I have already recommended Solar Bear. They're not quite done yet with all my projects. I've had them do all the heating and the plumbing for my houses, and I have six houses. All the guys are pleasant to work with, and they clean up after themselves, which is really important to me. I don't want to walk around the house and trip over stuff everyday, especially if somebody isn't coming back for awhile. Nothing is cheap, and I can't tell you how much money I've spent so far, especially because I've got six houses. So far, Solar Bear has put in four new furnaces and air conditioning systems, they've replaced all the ductwork, and then the plumbing. The first time they were out here, it took them a good minute, but I told someone, and he got it all straightened out. They learn from their experiences. Now they call to say they are on their way, and that's all I ask, so that I don't sit home all day and wait for someone to show up. more

Extremely satisfied with the overall service. Technicians are very polite and accomadating. Are willing to answer any questions one might have. My feeling is that they are honest about their findings. Thankyou for a pleasant experience. more

I'm not entirely sure this is the same Solar Bear that came to my house yesterday (they were supposed to be based in Chandler) but probably is. A guy named Lance had called in the morning and said I could have a ""Master Plumber"" come to the house, check/flush-out the water heater, check sink drains, address any toilet issues. All for $39. I knew that it was going to be one of those deals where they find a bunch of things wrong, then attempt to drum-up business by offering to fix them. But, I'm thick-skinned enough that they usually don't bother me. Also I plan on having my kitchen remodeled next year so wanted to get next to a reputable plumber. Avery Scott showed-up on time and proceeded to to work on the water heater, told me a couple useful facts about them. All the time he was here he, basically, talked about what a great plumber he is and how expensive his time is. His self-aggrandizement eventually became truly annoying. Of course he found several problems with the water heater, all due to ""calcium build-up"". The pressure-release valve was bad, the rod-thingy that attracts metallic particles was probably bad. He couldn't get the latter out, told me ""You'll just have to wait until it starts leaking."" He got the pressure-release valve out and was going to replace it. I asked him how much that would cost. He said ""$125 installed"". I said ""$125? That's a LONG way from $39."" He said, ""I can put the old one back."" I said ""Please do. I'll go buy one myself and put it in. I can't imagine they cost more that ten bucks at Home Depot."" He said ""They cost about $15."" So he was going to charge me $110 labor to screw that into the top of the tank. Such a deal. He proceeded to drain the tank, got some calcium out, sure it helped the tank's life. But at that point I decided he and his company really weren't the people I wanted to work with. He inspected the rest of the house, put drain cleaner in the sinks, gave me a free flapper-valve for a toilet. All good. But, all the time he worked he talked about how good he was at plumbing and that he deserved all the money he could get out of his customers. At one point I told him, ""Well, you ain't getting it out of me!"" He finished, left. I felt annoyed. Their $39 thing was worthwhile but the attempt to get another $125 out of me was, I felt, sleazy. And all his blowing-his-own-horn crap and money talk made me feel like I would never, ever contact them again. more

These people are using some kind of autodialer to call our family's phone line repeatedly - even though we're on the National Do Not Call List and have NEVER had business with this company. The worst part is, they just hang up on us when we answer! We've attempted to call them and have us taken off our list, but they just shuffle us off to a voice mail box. Lotta luck that does. If this is how they treat non-customers, just imagine how they'll abuse your contact information if you actually *do* business with them! There are plenty of reputable AC companies in Arizona, this does not appear to be one of them. more
