What Our Customers Are Saying

I am appreciative of prompt, reliable and thorough service with a very personal touch. Blake was patient did not appear rushed during his visit with us. I also greatly appreciated the flexibility I have been offered in scheduling future service. With other companies, I felt I was being taken advantage of but certainly do not have that sense with Carolina Air.


-Bob Doud

I thought I had a thermostat problem but Blake quickly analyzed what I had observed on the thermostat and went to check the HAVAC outside. In approximately two minutes he found the problem: a contactor had burnt out. My thanks to Blake House and Carolina Air!
Update: I called in Thursday morning (21 Dec) and asked if Blake House could stop by Friday because the thermostat was not working correctly. Blake texted me during the day (Thursday) and said he would stop by after his last call! Blake stopped by at 6 PM Thursday night and installed a new thermostat. The HAVAC is now providing amazing heat! My thanks to all!


-Dave Shunk

Blake was the tech that came out to our home and he was nothing short of a courteous professional- exactly what you would want from this type of service. He listened carefully to each of our concerns and answered all of our questions. He also went above and beyond to address the issues we had. I couldn't recommend this company and Blake more.


-Kyle Clifton

We finally found a great HVAC company we can trust. Blake came out on a Saturday and was so detailed. He explained the exact problem and how to fix it. He was very professional and courteous. We will be purchasing a maintenance plan to ensure our system is functioning at it's best ability. Thanks Ryan for reaching out and sending Blake out. He was the BEST!


-Melody B.

My wife and I are extremely happy with Carolina Air Services. Tracy and his team have been providing semi annual service for us as well as emergency repair services for many years. We recently had them replace two 20 year old HVAC systems with modern, updated equipment. This installation was not a simple replacement. It involved relocating both the indoor furnaces and outdoor units to accomplish some other goals that we have. All of Carolina Air Services team members were polite, respectful and most importantly knowledgeable. The job was completed quickly with no interruption in heat or cooling. We give them our highest recommendation!


-Gary K.

Tracy and his team are an excellent team to do business with. They treat you with awesome respect and kindness. They are very patient with you while answering your questions and addressing your concerns. They will do their best to fix the issue at the best rate possible. They guarantee their work.


-Lisa L.

We required service to our furnace during the extreme cold this past winter and as it turned out a replacement of our unit. Tracey and his team were able to perform the replacement in 24 hours, doing an excellent job and upgrading us to a newer more efficient product. I would recommend them for their knowledge, work ethic and excellent customer service.


-Judy K.

I have called Tracy 3-4 times over the last couple years when my AC wasn't working properly and he has always respoded quickly. He and his team are always polite and do a good job! They are honest! It is so nice to work with people that I can say this about. Thank you Tracy and guys for helping me again!


-Cheryl V.

Yesterday I was melting! Today I'm cold! Thanks to Tracy Wood and Carolina Air Services! I will only use Tracy and his awesome team for any and all of my heating and cooling needs! Hands down--the nicest, fastest, most reliable, reasonably priced, and trustworthy service in the Triangle! Thank you!


-Dutchess M.

The installation works as advertised. Nice to get something done that doesn't need a call back or two. Great job.


-Lowell Bonnett

Tracy and his team were the best. They came quickly within an hour on a hot Saturday. They fixed my air conditioning problem quickly and were professional and pleasant the whole time. It was one of the best service calls I have ever had. Thanks


-Warren Briggs

Called Tracy on a Sunday morning at 10am and he was at my house at 1015am. He had the A/C fixed within 20 minutes. Very professional and punctual. I will recommend you and your company to everyone that I can. Thanks again.


-Bradley Macey

Tracy and his team provide fast and quality service at a fair price. We had our AC break down on July 4 th and were pleasantly surprised that they were able to come out to repair our AC on a holiday. Tracy returns calls promptly and shows up when he says he is going to. I have used him twice now and been very satisfied both times.
