You’ll Lika...Hobaica! Hobaica's Refrigeration was founded by Paul S. Hobaica in 1952 in Phoenix, Arizona. Starting as a solo venture from his residence grew into a thriving enterprise. He constructed a shop in 1959 on county property beyond the city limits. This location is still home to the business, and has experienced several expansions since then.
As the company grew, so did his family. In the end, he had seven children who contributed to the business at different points. In 1990, Louis and Paul J., two of his sons, acquired the business from their father. In 2001, brother Mike joined the partnership, adding a new dimension to the company's growth.
The name was officially updated to Hobaica Services, Inc. in 2006. Presently, Paul, Louis, and Mike Hobaica are co-owners, focused on putting customers first, as Hobaica has since its inception in 1952. From time to time, you might spot the founder, Paul S. Hobaica, in the office.
We are the Hobaica brothers - Paul, Louis, and Mike Hobaica, and we are second-generation owners. Hobaica Services has been serving neighbors, friends, and families with dependable service since 1952. We are a team of professionals, family-owned and operated.

Recommended Customer Reviews

Binh was here for our tune up services in January. As always, excellence was provided. Binh gave honest inputs when we asked couple questions. Hobaica will be on our list of recommended contractors to our friends and family.

Justin saved the day once again for me a few days ago - - he timely arrived for my Gold Account free semi-annual inspection of all of my utilities, and promptly repaired my toilet which I thought was doomed!! He also recommended the Premiere Program to me, in light of my current HVAC condition, and I took him up on it on the spot! And the replacement has already occurred!!!!

Brandon L. showed up today for a water heater flush/safety inspection service. He was very nice, straight forward, honest and fast. It was very refreshing to hear from a company who isn't there to just sell you something new right off the bat. Thank you so much for your time and help. I will definitely book more services soon!

Steven from Hobaica just left my personal training studio and fixed the problem. I have to say that I always struggle with trusting service companies as I've had previous companies try to sell me snake oil.
This is the 2nd time I've used Hobaica, and I trust them 100%. They did amazing. Chase took care of me the first time, and since he's a manager now he sent Steven who was just as good.
I'll be using them for all my home and business services from now on!

Jacey was prompt and courteous, thorough and professional. I will be using Hobaica Services in the future.

My earlier review was knee-jerk and unfair to Hobaica's Services. I want to extend my heartfelt apology to Hobaica's in general, and to Andy Hobaica and to Chase C. in particular. Chase, thank you for coming out this morning and talking me off the ledge.
You can't do any better than Hobaica's for residential HVAC service in the Valley. I've had Hobaica's install the last two comfort systems on my house. The first one was in 2004 and the most recent one was August 2020. But I do want to issue a word of caution and it has nothing to do with Hobaica's. If you have a home that has a traditional gas furnace or you have a gas-pack AC unit, be careful about moving to a heat pump for your home's heating needs. When we had our rooftop Trane gas pack unit replaced with a Bosch heat pump last August, we were blown away (no pun intended) by how quiet and efficient the Bosch AC unit is. The summer energy savings are incredible. However, now that we're in winter, I'm not as crazy about the Bosch unit because it has a difficult time keeping my house comfortable. The unit is operating perfectly and Hobaica's is doing an excellent job of supporting it, but the bottom line is that a heat pump will never push out the kind of BTUs that a gas furnace can. You know that nice, hot, blast you get when the funace fan turns on and you can feel it across the room? A heat pump just can't make that kind of heat. You're also going to pay higher utility bills in the winter because a heat pump is quite a bit more expensive to run than a furnace. I wish someone had explained that to me before I was talked into a heat pump. However, Chase C. from Hobaica's made some adjustments to the thermostat config and he also suggested adding humidifers to help with the distribution of warm air in the house. We'll give that a try.
Here's the bottom line for me on this issue: In Phx we need a decent home heater for, what, eight weeks out of the year. Perhaps I should just learn to throw on a sweater or a second pair of socks as the price to pay during those eight weeks for the awesome AC capabilities of the Bosch unit. Because, realistically, come next August when it's 106 degrees outside at2AM, I'm going to be comfortable as can be with my Bosch AC and I doubt I'll think much about being a little chilly in January.
And now I'd like to talk about Chase C. If he decides to leave the HVAC business, he could become a psychologist. He talked me off the ledge about how/why the heat pump was doing what it's doing. And then we managed to find a couple non-HVAC topics to talk about and, wow, Chase is a knowledgable chap! Thanks for spending part of your Friday morning with me, Chase!
REVIEWER'S ADVICE: If you're planning to move from a traditional gas furnace to a heat pump, make sure you've got double or triple pane windows in your house and it also isn't a bad idea to add more insulation to your attic and walls. We did those items several years ago, so I hate to think how uncomfortable we'd be if we hadn't taken those steps. If you have drafty old single pane windows, DO NOT consider installing a heat pump in your home. You'll be cold all winter.

Wow, I received an unwanted voice message from this business. Apparently, they're ""updating"" their database of customers and were reaching out to advise of ""specials.""
Since I gave them 1 star a year ago what makes them think I have changed my mind about the way I was treated the first time?

High priced, told me I had a leak didn't even offer to fix it. Not impressed.

Had a service call from Gavin W today. He was able to fix my garbage disposal easily and provided very helpful tips to save money short and long term on a few plumbing services Ive been putting off. I was also glad to hear about the additional services for electric, which I wasn't aware of, and the service plans available too.
All in all it was a great third visit from Hobaica and I was incredibly impressed. Their technicians are on point, well trained, consistent, know their craft and value doing what's right for the customer. I'd recommend them hands down.

Family owned. Friendly. Employees tend to have longish tenure so it must be a good place to work. Quality work. They don't oversell
