Very pleased with Automatic Climate! Our outdoor unit crapped out after a few years of use, and the previous installer didn't register the product, so we were up the creek as they say. Since we had Automatic install a brand new unit, things have been smoother sailing. The initial technician and estimator was prompt and efficient; we were even able to get a new unit purchased, installed, and fully operation the same day.

The installation team were thorough and patient with my many questions and concerns (after two terrible previous experiences with other companies), and I've triple-checked that our unit is registered with the manufacturer as promised. Most recently, Philippe came out for our requested summer maintenance service. He was through, polite, and super patient with my home-from-school toddler and his many friendly questions. I found Automatic on Reddit and wasn't sure what we'd get, but every experience has been positive so far. Happy to say I highly recommend!

Michael was very prompt, friendly, and knowledgeable about the services rendered. He was very thorough in his assessment. It's getting HOT as we approach summer - he was kind enough to fill my hvac system with coolant until he and his company could return to do the install. Service: HVAC system repair

Their customer service is outstanding, the prices you pay are well worth it for the products you get and the service you get from the employees that work for this company. I recommend Automatic Climate to everyone I hear talking about heating and cooling. You can't beat this company, they are the best for the all around experience, service and products.

Ben R. did an excellent job servicing my unit. He did a thorough inspection of the unit along with excellent troubleshooting and explained to me exactly what he was doing as he went along. Very professional and highly recommended. They are now going to be my first choice for servicing and maintenance because of this experience. Service: A/C system repair

Automatic Climate technician Ben was very professional, knowledgeable, and honest. I used a few other companies in the past, and Automatic Climate the last 5 years to do HVAC maintenance, and Ben is the best! He took time to thoroughly clean the AC outdoor unit which I have never seen any tech so thorough like him. When he diagnosed my AC problem, he explained all the possible options I can do to repair it.

He is honest and kind. I would request Ben again, and Automatic Climate should be proud that they have such a hard working, extremely pleasant and a professional staff to represent them.

My experience was excellent. The service man called me in advance of arriving to ask me if he could come early. That was a big plus for me. He was very thorough and recommended that my unit should have a surge protector. I thought that was a good idea since I live in an area that looses electricity a lot. He had one in the truck. He came back to tell me the one he had looked defective and that he would have to go get one, which he did.

The installation of the surge protector was quick. The service man was very pleasant, respectful and knowledgeable. Next time I need a system maintenance check I hope it is Ale that comes to do the job.

My HVAC engineer was extremely thorough and explained all services performed. He also informed me of improvements/additions that I could make to my system. I am not financially able to do this at this time. He was very polite and very respectful of me and my home. It was both a pleasant and productive day. With the summer heat upon us all in Virginia, I am comforted in knowing that my system will keep my family cool. Thank you.

Their annual service package is a great deal. Typically they spend 2+ hours (once in the spring and once in the fall) doing a bi-yearly check and cleaning of both our upstairs and downstairs units. They provide reasonable recommendations giving me all the possible work/cost options. They also provide recommendations for minor upgrades that will extend the lifetime and safety of the systems. The techs are always knowledgeable and competent.

The team of John and Jeb were professional dedicated to their work and got right into what they were here to complete. They were neat and did wonderful work. My clothes dryer was not working and John found the reason why and fixed it right away. the hose was clogged with lint! I chose to do a maintenance contract with them and hope to see this team again. Thank you guys, you were wonderful.

Sean arrived on time for the service call. He was very professional and courteous. He explained that he would analyze the entire system to determine the exact problem. He analyzed the issue very quickly and correctly. We were very pleased with his service. Sean was very patient, and knowledgeable when he explained the problem with our heating system to my wife and I.

I would recommend the Automatic Climate Company to my neighbors, family, and friends. Also, I would recommend that customers purchase the full service contract. I have been a customer of Automatic Climate since I had my new home constructed in 2008.

Jed performed the annual maintenance on our system this year. He accomplished the inspection and maintenance professionally in addition to being polite and pleasant. Automatic Climate has been servicing my AC and heat systems for at least 25 years ago and they installed new systems a couple of times during this period. I recommend this company without reservations.

Automatic Climate Control never lets me down ever since I have been using them since 2017. Every person that has come out has not only been professional but knowledgeable. There communication is impeccable. I have used them for my annual maintenance and repairs. The prices are very reasonable and they offer payment plans if you need it. Gary L treated my home with much respect and I love how he was so polite and kept me informed on everything he was doing and why. I love how he says, "Roger, Roger." Stay consistent and you will always have me as a customer.

Automatic Climate was the company that installed the original equipment in our home. During June, the thermostat had to be replaced. The first technician said that it needed to be replaced and the next technician replaced it. It was not getting any cooler in the house so that same technician came and said that there was problem with an eroded wire. that caused the problem.

I asked him to please set the new thermostat to 72 degrees so that it would run that way year round. Well it's a week later and over $500 dollars later and it's 80 degrees in the house. I just retired and I can't keep paying these people to charge me every other week. My mom lives with us and I can't make it comfortable in here for her, please don't trust these people because they cannot be trusted.

We had an excellent experience with this company from the time I made the call and spoke with Michael for an appointment to the arrival of the two technicians. Eric and Renee (technicians) arrived on time, were professional, courteous, friendly and did an excellent job cleaning our ductwork and the air handler for our heat pump.

Dryer vent cleaning. Went well. Technician arrived on time and was very professional. Completed the work in a reasonable amount of time. However, did have to ask that the dryer be pushed back to where it had been prior to moving it for the cleaning. But the technician complied with this request very quickly and efficiently.

We have had two fantastic experiences with Automatic Climate. They came to our house in the spring to do a Dominion Virginia Power energy assessment, and checked out our HVAC systems as part of that.

They cost less than the company I was using. They do a great job and explain just what they are doing. They arrive on time, clean up when they are done and even wear shoe protectors to keep my house clean.
