Testimonials

Our clients love us

Here's some of what they had to say

Needed to replace our AC unit which was 22 and failing. We also wanted to update to an electric heat pump heating and AC system. Our first quote from another company seemed high. We got a second quote from Vital Comfort in part because they are on the list for SMUD rebate program. Vitaliy was easily to work with, straight forward, and completed our project quickly for a third of the price quoted by the other company. He coordinated our rebates so that we paid the “after rebate” price right from the start. We have been toasty all winter with lower energy bills than years prior, and are ready for a Sacramento summer with our cooling system. Highly recommend Vital Comfort!

We called Vitaly this past Sunday after our AC went out the night prior. He was with his family (did I mention it was Sunday?) but said he'd come help us anyway! It was 90+ degrees out and we've got little ones so this qualified as an emergency in our eyes! Vitaly didn't hesitate. He dropped what he was doing and came all the way out to Folsom and within 30min of being there we had nice cool air flowing into our home. It was safe to bring the kids home again! Thank you for taking time away from the family to rescue our family! TOP NOTCH SERVICE!

We had a great experience with Vital Comfort! They gave us a very competitive price for a full system replacement and were incredibly friendly and honest throughout the entire process. We got over 5 quotes from companies in the Sacramento area and they were the only company to give us a reasonable estimate, generous warranty, give us only what we needed and DIDN’T TRY TO UPSELL US (thank goodness) and facilitate rebates from SMUD and the state. Their team did a thorough, high-quality job and made sure everything was done right. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and professional HVAC service.
