They provided an annual service for our gas heater and air conditioner. Service was very competently and thoroughly performed by Tom. He was a wealth of information and was able to answer all of my questions. Bob Jensen Heating and AC have been providing maintenance, service, and repairs for our units for many years, and I have always found them to be very competent and exceptionally pleasant/helpful to work with.I would highly recommend their Comfort Club Maintenance Plan. It is a good way to ensure regular annual maintenance for your furnace and air conditioner and a very cost effective way to get help and repair service when needed.

We had Bob Jensen install a new HVAC system recently. I want to compliment them on a great job and they did it in 1 day with the help of Javier, Darian and Povria. We are up in running with no issues. The techs did a bang up job in such a short time, explained in detail what they did and left the premises clean

I wish to share my support of Bob Jenson A/C & Heating company. I have had many technicians come to my home over the last 30 years and Bob Jenson's technicians standout above all others. Most Recently Technician Tom Lairson repaired/replaced the motor on my Heating system. He was very knowledgeable and most important to me, "user friendly". I give him my highest recommendation.

Very professional my tech went over what he did.

We got three quotes. Mike from Bob Jenson listened to our needs and came up with three levels of the system that he thought would fit our needs best. The differences between the three options was clearly stated in the proposal. The equipment that was going in was clearly stated. Since this fit our needs better than any other system that we had gotten a quote for, we chose Bob Jenson for our install. The workmen that came to install the system were knowledgeable, considerate, and professional. It is hard to visualize what you are getting, but we are absolutely sure we made the right choice now that it is in.We then decided to get on their maintenance plan where they come out in the spring fo AC maintenance and fall for heating maintenance. They reminded us right on time for spring maintenance and the appointment went well.

Six months ago, we had Cyrus do our maintenance on our Fujitsu mini split system. He was very knowledgeable and shared some really great information about what we can do to keep our system running efficiently. He was very personable and professional. This month, Javier Zambada did our maintenance. Again, he was very knowledgeable, professional and personable. We've had awesome luck with the technicians that come and check out our system. I would HIGHLY recommend Bob Jensen Air Conditioning and Heater to any and everyone regardless of the type of system you have. They are an amazing company.
