Eric at Carni was the most professional and efficient person who came to my house to give a bid.

He then pulled all the necessary permits and had his team ready to install!

They installed a complete new air conditioning and heating system in one day !

Eric even came back for the city inspection!

The best in S D!

I've now had the pleasure of using Carini Heating and Air on multiple occasions at various properties. Their service men are always prompt, professional and knowledgeable. They seek out the best and most efficient solution possible, and that's not always the most expensive one. Having an HVAC company I know I can depend on is priceless, so glad I found these guys!!

Great job on a plumbing upgrade at our home. Carini's plumbing team installed a Noritz tankless water heater and a Halo water filtration system on the day after we called them.

They had excellent pricing compared to other companies we called. We love having hot water without waiting for it to heat up. And super happy that we can drink filtered water from any faucet in the house now!

I moved to Oceanside 2 years ago from SF Bay Area.
I bought a Condo in Ocean hills 55+.
It needed a lot of updating.
I saw a commercial on tv for Carini and it seemed like a modern technology Savy heating and air conditioning HVac company.
The company rep, Markus came to my 1200 sq ft condo and explained the hi tech multi split options as well as more common furnace and air conditioning installations. He was very courteous and professional.
Because I already had the ducting we decided to go with more conventional furnace replacement in attic and Aircondioning unit in patio area.
The cost was pretty expensive but I am financing over time with low interest and monthly payments.
Two days after consult, the installation technicians, Hkik and Migel arrived on time and Ike was working 5ft high hot attic on furnace and Migel was on patio installing AC unit.
Both technicians were very knowledgeable and professional. The job involved a lot of heavy lifting, manual labor and a knowledge of new technology.
The results are great and I need to study manual to get the most benefit from the wi fi enabled thermostat which can be controlled by an app on your phone to be turned on an off remotely to be at perfect temperature at any time, very cool! Unfortunately my attic is so small and cramped I did not get a good photo of furnace.
Great service!
You get what you pay for
Another interesting part of installation is a company called We Green comes to your home to inspect installation and measure environmental output of newly installed units...pretty cool to live in California.

Just had a new HVAC System installed by Carini. They were able you help out extremely quick and I gotta say: first contractor ever to start on time, finish on time and did a nice and clean job! The crew was extremely pleasant to work with. And this comes from someone who is very picky.
Great job guys!!!!

We just had this company out to our home a few days ago and the service was excellent! Anthony was our service technician. He was friendly, knowledgable, and polite. We were unsure about having the work done the same day as the estimate, but after Anthony told us what needed to be done, we decided to do it that same day. I highly recommend this company and Anthony.

I had Carini Heating and Air come out to do routine inspection and maintenance on my mini-split AC/heating unit. Anthony D.,the technician, spent an hour cleaning,testing and inspecting my system and then patiently answered all my questions showing me how to clean filters etc.
I love my mini-split system!!!! My house is old and holds the heat and there were rooms I couldn't stay in when we have hot days nor could I entertain. My mini-split, wall-mounted unit keeps the rooms I spend the most time in cool and comfortable and the unit is very quiet. It's less expensive and requires less complicated installation than a whole house unit. I highly recommend Carini Heating and Air. One of my neighbors also put a unit in.

I recently installed a split A/C. It was inferred that I would not have to paint outside ducts but, in fact, that was on me. Installation went well but the electrical was more than unacceptable. Carini did take responsibility but I had to complain and was never allowed to speak with Mr Carini. Had 3 drywall messes to clean up which should only have been one. Hoping to be cool and happy when the weather warms up

I had five different heating and air companies out to give me bids on a new a/c system, and John Bodkin was the most knowledgeable and thorough of the bunch. Very impressive. I would definitely recommend Carini Heating and Air to a friend.

After receiving several estimates to replace a home furnace and add air conditioning, I had Carini come out for a quote. They were priced competitively; actually on the lower end. But, what I really liked was that Gabe took the time to explain everything: the removal, installation, options, time, etc.

A year or so later, we had an issue with the AC not pumping out cold air. Carini had a service technician (Anthony) come over to diagnose the problem (manufacturing defect). They got everything repaired and back to normal in no time at all.

Yes, I like to get a good price, but more importantly, I want it done right and Carini got it done.

Always professional, and willing to take the time to explain the details. Thanks!

Highly recommended!
