Joe (the owner of Giant HVAC) replied immediately to my service request and his communication throughout this stressful process was clear, concise and calming. His team was very professional and thorough. Even with headache of installing a brand new system to replace a 50+ year old unit, Joe and his staff just took care of everything. I will be recommending Giant HVAC to anyone that needs his services. Also did I mention that his quote was the lowest out of the 8 that I received. Amazing service and a fair price…you can’t ask for anything more. THANKS JOE.

Joe and his crew were great. We had an AC installed along with new duct work and everything was done in a few days. All equipment is working great and we are very happy with everything.

I got Giant HVAC to install AC for both my house and another family member’s house. My house had multiple mini split systems installed just two years ago and my family’s house had a central ac installed a little over a year ago. My home installation was a mess - Joe's crew cycled in different people and some of them seem like clear apprentices who didn't know what they were doing. For example, Joe’s guys installed one large unit in the attic upside down which potentially may have damaged the unit. They also installed one of the mini split system’s drain pipe poorly that ultimately caused flooding and a pile of water in my kitchen. To make matters worse, all 4 ac units stopped working and no longer blow cold air at almost exactly after 2 years (installed July 2021, stopped working August 2023), coincidentally just outside of the 2 year warranty from Giant HVAC. I contacted Joe and he’s been giving me a ton a attitude and unwilling to stand by his work. He’s basically responding with, “I’m too busy and I don’t have time for this. I’ll go visit if or when I have business in your area, but I don’t have any business in your area right now.” I’m all for supporting local small businesses, but I really can’t recommend Joe after this experience.

Response from Giant HVAC, Inc
Hey Ken, again I apologize that you’re having issues with your equipment. I am also extremely surprised to read this story. I don’t ever recall hearing of any water damage, and the fan coil we installed upstairs was never damaged either. It was functioning when we installed it and apparently for over 2 years. I’m not sure why you hire us again to install a separate system at your sisters back house if we did such a horrible job at your place to begin with. We did give you an extended labor warranty but we never heard of any issues with the equipment until just recently. You never reached out for maintenance, nor replaced your air filter regularly as we advised you to either. That being said, you reached out to us about an air-conditioning issue this week, in the middle of one of our busiest times of the year. I did inform you that we are currently overbooked at the moment and that if I was ever near your area I could easily stop by, but I am not there anytime soon. I do have a commitments with other customers at the time. At no point did we ever deny or decline to come out to see what is going on. All we did was give you an honest expectation to let you know that we were super busy at the time and we couldn’t show up anytime soon. I am handling all these calls as they come, in order, and I am more than happy to put you in the queue should you choose.

High praise to Giant HVAC company. Joe provided options and a competitive price for upgrading my old 1983 furnace. I was flying in from a different state to start and complete the renovation of my condo. Joe and his excellent team met all my timelines - work completion, inspections and permits. I really appreciated Joe keeping me informed throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend this company for their expertise, reliability and great customer service.

Joe from Giant HVAC is not only very professional but also personable, provides advice to get your project right and will go above and beyond to make sure you're a happy customer at the end of the project. He helped us pick the right system, showed up right on time to do the install to work within our schedule and exhibited immense attention to detail and pride of work. I highly recommend his services to anyone looking for an HVAC installer.

Joe is AMAZING! If I could I would give him 6 stars I would. First things first, if you expect that the he will do all the work himself, thats not a realistic expectation when it comes to communication and followup, Joe is amongst the very few contractors who is at the top of their game. He is very clear and upfront about setting expectations and then meeting them. I had to travel out of country half way through our project and Joe had offered to come and resolve any issues. Our project was complex and involved replacing single zone HVAC system with a 2 zone Heat pump based system. To make thing more interesting we had to add a new return from the second floor which made the project pretty custom. His team's workmanship is as good but that is to be expected, but following up and mitigating issues when they do arise, because parts fail, things happen thats when Joe shines through.

Joe and team did a good job installing my new Gree Heat Pump system. The price was very reasonable and I'm very happy with the system. There were a few issues along the way and once I reported them to Joe he took care of them, no quibble. Happy to recommend the Giant team.

From the initial meeting to get a quote to the install to guiding us through the meetings with the city inspector, Joe was professional, reliable and timely. My husband and I both found him to have great expertise in the work he was doing; he brought up useful considerations and recommendations for the setup we have (we live in a townhome in San Carlos). Additionally, pricing was competitive. Joe was a great communicator throughout the entire process; I'd recommend him for anyone looking for AC installation work.

Joe and his team were prompt and worked continuously until the job was done. This included some extra work like installing another vent and sealing the existing vents that was not in the initial statement of work. Joe also responded immediately and came by multiple times to take care of some noise in the ducting and filter box
