Simon Air Conditioning and Heating

My 4 ton unit didn’t work very well at all. 1^st I called Costco who wanted to sell me on a $ 28,000 unit and when I told them that was way above my price range they showed me a cheap entry level unit for $ 18,000 which was way too expensive. I called Simon after a referral and he came right out and knew exactly what we needed and met our budget. Very nice, courteous, knowledgeable, friendly, honest and professional. He got to the point of what we needed and what they were going to do to resolve our hot house issues. I got a high end 5 ton unit that works great and is very quiet. It is very powerful and keeps us nice and cool. They mounted one part in the attack and now we don’t hear it at all. Additionally we now have an extra pantry for storage in the hallway because it’s mounted in the attic. He didn’t play games and helped me out quickly. Met all deadlines, passed the city inspection the 1^st time and arrived on time each day till the job was done. We highly recommended using them because they don’t play games and they don’t drag things out. They helped us to cool quickly without costing an arm and a leg. Highly recommended company.

After getting a $ 3,600 bid for a new motor from another company, I called Simon for a second opinion. Within just half an hour, and for only $ 220, he fixed my AC by simply replacing a capacitor. It’s such a crap shoot knowing who you can trust for these kinds of services, but Simon is the real deal. I will never use another AC company.

I had Simon come out and he fixed the a-​c heat unit which others said was toast.
Very pleased –prompt reasonable service.

Simon was amazing and so easy to deal with. He gave me a good price, did the job to a high standard and even offered to go get a filter to change my old one.
He came back on his own to check everything is ok and and changed one of the vents after the job was done and was already paid. Most people dont bother doing any follow up once they have your money, but Simon did.
I was really impressed with his professionalism and I highly recommend him to anyone. He has also replaced the ac units of another two people I know and both of them have been super happy.
Thank you Simon, we need more professional people like you.

I am so grateful to Simon for making to trip to Sherman Oaks on a holiday Sunday to fix our broken A/​C. He was quick, kind and reasonable. No drama and no fuss. Thank you so much!

This place is great. Very responsive and half the price of the national AC service businesses (e.g., George Brazil). Simon installed a brand new AC unit within hours of my call.

Simon is a really honest, hard-​working and pleasant man. His quote was 25% cheaper than his competitors. He was clear in explaining what needed to be done and gave me options. I would recommend Simon to any one of my friends and family. Thank you for the great service!!!

I feel silly saying this in LA, but thank goodness we were only without heat for one night! HA! So our heater broke, we Unilocaled, found Simon Air and decided to go with them thanks to all the other positive UnilocalERS. This is an easy review. We made a next day appointment and they came within the time slot they stated. The repairman was fast and courteous and I was surprised at the relative painlessness of the whole experience. That morning of the appointment, I left for work and there was no heat, by the time drove in and I sat down at my desk, my BF texted «Heat’s fixed.» Awesome!

Gave me a fantastic price on a new HVAC unit for my condo. Ordered it on a Monday and they returned promptly the next day to install. Great prices and very courteous.
They have worked on several units in our building and we all have loved them.
Thanks Simon.

Do not call him for his service!
We paid $ 1400 just this summer for Simon to fix our A/​C which he installed 4 years ago. He took the money but never fixed the problem.
We should have gotten someone else from the beginning.
Do not call him for his service!!!
I wish I could rate this with zero star.

I called Simon Air conditioning and heating to fix the conditioning which was not working properly, the technician Rick came to our house to fix the problem after 2 days the air conditioning stop to work then Rick Beck came to check and fix the problem but again the problem got even worse .
I am very disappointed because I had to miss two days till these guy come to our place and miss another day to schedule with another company plus had pay two time to Simon Air conditioning

I called Simon on Sunday after our air condition stopped working he said he will be coming in a few hours he showed up on time and knew the problem right away very good guy to work with thanks Adoni

I called Simon Air because of their high Unilocal reviews. They missed their appointment because their previous appointment ran late. No worries, I understand, not a big deal. We rescheduled the appointment for a few days later, I can survive with no AC for a few more days.
They missed the second appointment! Not cool. I called him up and his response was simply «uuuhhhhhhhh… ummmmmm… uuuhhhhhhhhhh…»
Not cool, I’m calling someone else to get this fixed.

Called Simon this morning after reading Unilocal reviews. My A/​C was blowing, but the air was cool at best. He said he’d be over between 12 and 2pm, and arrived at 1:15 as promised.
He spent an hour on the room of my building and now my A/​C is blowing COLD again! I’m a happy camper. :-)

Overall, I am very happy with this place. We just got our central heat, a/​c, and ducts replaced and so far, they are working great! The reason why we went with Simon Air was their price, which was considerably less than the quotes we got from other places. And he didn’t try to upsell us or act all salesy. Simon and his workers seem like friendly, honest people.
The only issue I had was that they are less professional than other places. Simon did not show up for our initial consultation (he didn’t know about the appt…), so we had to reschedule. The workers were consistently 2 – 3 hours late every day, making a 2-​day job a 3-​day job. It was difficult waiting around for the workers to arrive before going to work when the worker was supposed to arrive at 9am but didn’t arrive until 12pm (a phone call saying he will be late would have been nice).
Also, while other hvac places wear booties into your house to keep your house clean, and they pack up the old ducts and other trash into bags before bringing them down from the attic, through your house, out the door, Simon Air does not do that. They trampled through my house in their work shoes and they simply brought down the old ducts and trash from my attic without bagging them up, thus bringing dirt, dust, and rat poop down from the attic as well. I also found black smears on my walls and doors.
Of course, with their great prices, you can just hire some cleaners afterwards. =)

The most annoying thing ever when needing something fixed is when they want to charge me $ 65 dollars just to send out a guy to give me an estimate when I’m telling you exactly what I need on the phone. All I wanted was my thermostat changed, thankfully Simon gave me a price directly on the phone, and a price that was much lower than everyone else. Plus he gave me a flat rate instead of the obnoxious hourly rate I got from everyone else.
When looking for any kind of service guy, be it a plumber, a mover, or a heater-​er (yes, I just made that up, go with it), I prefer the ones with the least amount of social skills when speaking on the phone. I don’t need you to ask me how my day is (probably not that good considering I have to pay you to fix something), you don’t even need to say «please» or «thank you», just give me a quote, tell me when you’re going to be there, and fix the damn thing. Simon did all of that.
Apparently, the thermostat being fixed was not all I needed though… but Simon had the spare part in his truck, installed it, did some more colored wire stuff (I’m still thinking of a clever Lethal Weapon reference here), and got my heater/​AC working. He only charged me $ 170 for a job that took him ~4 hours to do, can’t beat that. Oh, and if I had let him, he was even willing to wash the floors after… although probably not throughout the whole house.
P. S. Anyone who can climb up and down a ladder for 4 hours and keep his kippa on the entire time is a winner in my book.

Simon was rude on the phone. He forgot who I was and that he made an appointment with me. Then, he set another appointment and didn’t show up for that appointment either. He is unreliable and unprofessional. I would never work with him.

We have a condo in Culver City and our furnace died last year. We needed to have our whole HVAC system replaced, which included a roof-​mounted condenser (three-​story building) and our in-​unit heater. We called several companies and the quotes they gave us caused us physical pain. Simon Air gave us a quote that, after seeing the other quotes, we honestly thought was too good to be true. They had someone out the same day to review and we set up an install date for the following week.
The crew came in on time and removed and disposed of our old system and set about installing the new one. The job took three days, when we were told it would only take one. That being said, the crew worked very hard and were on time each day. When it came time to pay the bill, we paid the original price, they didn’t try to tack on anything more for the extra time.
We had to do a bit of cleaning up after the crew was gone, but there wasn’t anything more than a few stubborn smudges on the walls.
It’s been a few months now and everything is working perfectly. We’re glad we found these guys!

Thx Simon Air!!! My parents were coming in to town for the weekend and low and behold my junky AC doesn’t feel like working anymore. So i found Simon on here, Simon is the owner of Simon Air. He came to check it out and was shocked when i opened the door cause he said i look like his daughter… He showed me a pic and i do lol!
Anyway after a few minutes of chatting he went to the roof to check out my unit. He back down after 5 minutes and told me my fuse blew… (wtvr that means) Anyway he went ahead and fixed it and my AC unit works now. There was no extra fee, he charged me his standard service fee and was on his way. Just want to let you guys know that he’s honest and reliable, thats all.

Product is great. Got a brand new central heating/​air for a great price.
Bad News: They installed the heating unit in my attic blocking off access to the west wing of the house. I brought Simon by to «just look» at the problem. He wouldn’t even stick his head up in the attic to check it out. The unit needed to be moved 20″ to the right, there was PLENTY of space. He said it was the best possible spot for it… I had two other companies look at the problem and they said it could be moved (for a price of course).
Simon offered to cut a SECOND hole in my ceiling for a great price of $ 300 to solve the problem. Customer service big thumbs down. Sloppy installation.
His words, «You got a great unit for a great price»…I guess I got what I paid for.
