Balanced Comfort Cooling Heating & Plumbing - Fresno
Company Overview
As the premier locally-owned HVAC and plumbing service in the Central Valley, Balanced Comfort Cooling, Heating, and Plumbing leads the way. We also offer Water & Mold Remediation services. Discover why we boast over 3,000 5-star reviews online.
Established in 2012 by Aaron Husak, Balanced Comfort began its journey by collaborating with PG&E and the City of Fresno to perform energy efficiency audits in local homes. With 200-300 audits conducted every month, we enabled homeowners to decrease energy consumption and increase their home's efficiency.
In 2019, Balanced Comfort broadened its offerings through the PG&E Energy Savings Assistance Program. Yet, the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020 interrupted our main source of income, the ESA program. To support our 25 employees, we adapted by concentrating on heating and air conditioning services in the Central Valley.
Since then, we have diversified, adding plumbing and restoration services to our portfolio. Our heating, air conditioning, and weatherization divisions have also seen significant growth. Proudly rooted in the community, Balanced Comfort continues to flourish as a business focused on local needs.
In 2006, Aaron Husak entered the field of residential energy efficiency at a solar firm in San Diego. Since that time, he has passionately worked to help homeowners understand and reduce their monthly utility costs. He witnessed many individuals installing solar without realizing why their bills remained high.
Having grown up in Sanger, Husak saw an opportunity to help his friends and neighbors improve their home's comfort and energy efficiency. He returned to Fresno in 2012 to establish Balanced Comfort and has been addressing air conditioning, heating, and ductwork issues for customers ever since.

Recommended Customer Reviews

update- The actual owner reached out to me. We chatted on my issues during the process. More than anything I just wanted to let him know about the service and how I felt. I appreciate them reaching out right away and caring about their clients concerns.

Why would Balanced Comfort need my home address to confirm their service map covers Merced?
Sham to find out my equity?
'I can check if your area is within our service range if you send your full name, phone number, good email address, and home address.'

Terrible, when Benjamin was working for Balanced Comfort, he was the honest and very Sincere technician, the guy that came to service our unit he was trying to upsell and not paying attention to service the unit ( last month) I was not very happy with his service coz he didn't do the service the way I was expecting.

I would give a 0 if I could at this point. I had a brand new Bosch heat pump installed under their ""premium"" package. It is 3 tons, 18 SEER on my 1,062 sqft home. Since installation I noticed the AC could not get to the desired temperature and hold it there. Days over 95 the unit began switching between blowing cool air, not cold and warm air. My house could not get below 80. A tech came out, switched off the energy settings on the thermostat, but could not find anything else wrong. He changed the cooling set point on the unit further to see if it would help. He told my boyfriend, ""it's just hot as hell"". Later that day, unit was still cycling between warm and cool. Another tech came out, he was very kind and understanding, spent hours in the house, replaced the thermostat and had me turn off the additional room sensors I bought since they were adjusting the overall average temp of the house to higher to see if it would help. The vents were tested and there was inconsistent and imbalanced cooling coming from them. My ""premium"" package included the smart ac system, which was not installed on the original install date. I am waiting for that to be installed. It is suppose to alert them and me for any issues with the vents. Yesterday the temp in by house was 77-80 again, but the bedrooms where the airflow is horrible were much hotter. My 20-30 year old unit cooled better and cost less than the new unit. My pge bills were 3-400 with the old unit and now are over 600 because the unit will not shut off. They took advantage of me, as a woman, charged me a fortune and delivered a horrible package. Shame on you, Balanced Comfort! I paid $26,000 to line your owners pockets while I am now trying to figure out how to cool my home other ways and look into how to get your issues corrected!

I had them out for mine and they did an excellent job cleaning and checking that I'm good to go for this crazy Fresno heat. They're offering FREE air conditioning maintenance for teachers (first responders, seniors, military, and Fresno State grads too)! Even checked my air purifier bulb for me to help keep the air inside clean. So friendly and super knowledgeable. Highly recommend :)

Excellent service. I am disabled and have several health issues. AC stopped blowing cold. I was looking at having to go to a hotel. Balance Comfort was able to squeeze me in. AC repaired and blowing cold within 2 hours of my call. Repair was reasonable considering parts needed replacing and the unit is 20 years old. Technician took pictures of everything before and after.

Stay Away From Balanced Comfort! I was quoted $1086.53 to replace the blower motor in my A/C. Repair was completed then told price was increased by $140 due a bracket that was needed (not broken, was just part of the original. Repair man called boss and I was told Tough Luck. Stay away from these crooks

Won't give a quote based on a simple valve insert on an existing line. They want to come out and charge you whatever they want.

If I could give zero stars I would. Do not waste your time. I was having issues with my AC unit and called a few local companies. Balanced comforts was able to come out the very next morning, that should have been my first red flag. After spending several hours diagnosing my AC unit I was told my repairs would cost several thousands of dollars and my entire until should be replaced. I decided to call another local company for a second opinion. Second company had my AC fixed and up and running within 30minutes. Oh and for an 1/8th of the cost. Do yourself a favor and stay far away from these guys!

Our AC was having issues and we contacted this company on Friday and we had someone scheduled to come out Sunday. Given that it was a weekend, I was very thankful for the turnaround time. The tech that came out was nice and respectful so I have nothing negative to say about the workers.
However, the tech did not have the part on his truck and after contacting other companies, realized that this should have been something very standard for them to carry. The tech was desperately trying to get me rescheduled ASAP as we wanted to move forward. I called Balanced Comfort myself and was told that I would have to wait until Monday to get rescheduled as that individual was gone for the day and that someone would call me Monday morning. Nobody ever called me. Him not having this part was a blessing in disguise.
We contacted a competitor that same afternoon and had them scheduled to come out this morning by 9am. To our surprise, this is when we learned how severely overcharged we were. Balanced Comfort's quote was 5 times higher than other competitors! This was not from 1 but 2 difference HVAC repair providers. I am so upset that I even paid the $99 membership/diagnostic fee but lesson learned. We saved over $1000 going with someone else who we trust. What is even more unfortunate is that we were looking to do other home repairs with this company which we will no longer do.
Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this company and highly encourage others to shop around. Even if it means you suffering without AC for a few more days.
