Comprehensive Repair for All Heating Systems

Your home's heating system is a complex machine, and not all repair needs are the same. Our certified technicians have the extensive training and hands-on experience required to diagnose and resolve issues across all major types of heating equipment. We arrive with fully stocked vehicles, prepared to handle most repairs in a single visit.

The furnace is the most common type of heating system in the area, and we are experts in its every component. If you notice any signs of trouble, don't wait for a complete breakdown.

Common Furnace Problems We Fix:

  •  The furnace fails to turn on or ignite.
  •  The pilot light is out or will not stay lit.
  •  Loud banging, rattling, or squealing noises during operation.
  •  Frequent and rapid cycling (short-cycling).
  •  The blower runs continuously, but the air is not warm.
  •  A sudden and unexplained increase in your utility bills.

Our diagnostic process for furnaces involves a thorough inspection of the thermostat, air filters, ignition system, gas valve, blower motor, and safety switches to accurately identify the root cause of the failure.

Common Repairs for All Heating Systems

Boiler systems provide powerful, radiant heat but require specialized knowledge for safe and effective repair. Our technicians are well-versed in both older and modern hydronic heating systems.

Common Boiler Problems We Fix:

  •  No heat or hot water being produced.
  •  Visible water leaks or pooling around the boiler unit.
  •  Low boiler pressure preventing the system from firing.
  •  Unusual gurgling, whistling, or banging noises (kettling).
  •  The pilot light extinguishes itself.
  •  Radiators are not heating up evenly or at all.

We begin our boiler diagnostics by checking the system's pressure, water levels, thermostat, circulator pump, and expansion tank to ensure a precise and lasting repair.

Heat pumps are versatile, energy-efficient systems that provide both heating and cooling. When they malfunction in heating mode, our team knows exactly where to look.

Common Heat Pump Problems We Fix:

  •  The system is blowing cool air when set to heat.
  •  The outdoor unit is covered in ice or frost.
  •  The heat pump is making grinding or screeching noises.
  •  The system is stuck in cooling mode and won't switch to heat.
  •  Reduced airflow from the vents.
  •  Abnormally high energy consumption.

For heat pumps, our diagnostic approach includes examining the refrigerant levels, reversing valve, compressor, defrost controls, and electrical connections to restore its dual-function capability.

Ruben from Piggies went above and beyond when he came to provide us with a quote for doing some duct work. He was also able to identify the underlying problem as to why we have been having a major issue with our heat in our office suite. He took photos, explained the issue, what he could and could not do, and what to communicate to our property owner. He spent far longer answering questions and finding the source of an issue that wasn't even the reason why he was onsite. EXCELLENT
CUSTOMER SERVICE!

I recently had my air conditioning unit serviced by Ruben, and I couldn't be more impressed. From start to finish, the experience was smooth and professional. He arrived on time, was incredibly knowledgeable, and explained the issue in a way that was easy to understand. He worked efficiently, resolved the problem quickly, and made sure everything was functioning perfectly before leaving.
I highly recommend this company for anyone needing AC repair or maintenance. I'll definitely be calling them again for any future needs!

First of all I NEVER do reviews or rate any company or product. But, Piggies Air Conditioning did an amazing job at a GREAT price! I always get at least 3 estimates, and in this particular situation, I had at least 5. These guys were the most reasonable by several thousand dollars, with BETTER equipment that the others! Our ac and heat package is at least a 17 seer system, which is top of the line! I've been in the construction business my entire life, and dealt with many companies from all the trades. It really doesn't get any better than Piggies! This company and its personnel were on time, and courteous, which is hard to come by these days. Ruben, Luis were very professional, and I was in constant contact with them throughout the job. The Daikin product is one of the best in the world! I'm giving Piggies two thumbs way up!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Piggies Air Conditioning, and I can't recommend them enough! From the moment I contacted Ruben, their team displayed an impressive level of knowledge and experience in the field. They answered all of my MANY questions with ease and friendliness and provided insights that really helped me understand my options and the scope of work as a whole. The communication throughout the process was fantastic. They kept me informed every step of the way, which was especially reassuring as a new homeowner navigating this kind of installation for the first time. I felt confident in their expertise and reccomendations they presented for our new HVAC sytems. When it came time for the installation, I was blown away by how efficient and professional the team was. They did a fantastic job with the installation itself and left the area spotless afterward. It was clear they respected our home as if it were their own, which is surprisingly rare in certain service fields, and greatly appreciated. Overall, my experience with Piggies Air Conditioning was excellent, and I would gladly recommend them to anyone in need of HVAC services.

The technician arrived on time, which I really appreciated given how crucial air conditioning is in this heat. Ruben was professional and friendly, explaining what he was doing throughout the process. The issue I had was diagnosed fairly quickly, and they provided me with a few options on how to fix it. The pricing was transparent, and I didn't feel like there were any hidden costs, which is always a plus when it comes to service calls like these. Highly recommend this company!

Overall great job replacing our antiquated AC unit. The evaluation and detail is a big deal to us. Rueben explained all the techincal aspects and gave us great
recommendations and feedback. The actual installation was painless and unremarkable, his AC experts got it done, got it cleaned and most importantly got it right. Rueben even went a step further to assure we had
protection from the coming rain, that is service unheard of these days. His price was competitive and a REAL value for the service we recieved. Using anyone else for your AC needs, would be a huge mistake. We thank them again and will recommend to everyone.

I am a realtor in Los Angeles, and while we were getting ready to sell my clients home in Pasadena, an inspector from another company backed into my clients air conditioner. I was referred to Piggies AC by another trusted client so I called them. I talked to Ruben, he answered the phone right away, answered some of my initial questions, and was able to get me an appointment just two days later. On site Ruben was there on time, was extremely knowledgeable, And told us the best course of action to get the AC unit back in good working order. A day or two later he sent us an invoice and his prices were very reasonable. I am happy, Client is happy, thank you Ruben!

Leaving a 5-star review just after the initial inspection because I was blown away by Ruben's professionalism.
Echoing a lot of the other reviews here, Piggies Air Conditioning responds so quickly to requests (even though I actually accidentally sent in multiple requests on my side without responding, oops!)
They were able to come do a FREE energy audit and initial inspection on the same day and Ruben was amazing at explaining his thoughts on our house's situation and what he thought was worth the money and wasn't worth the money.
I truly felt like he was trying to help me find the best solution to our issues instead of just trying to upsell us on everything and anything.
I'm definitely recommending this business to anyone I know if they want a trustworthy and realistic service, value, and quality.
