I've used Ward's for a very long time and wouldn't consider any other company for service of my 4 A/C units. Ask for Bob, he's the best! Service: A/C preventive maintenance

A terrific tech named Matt replaced our capacitor on a Sunday morning. The price was fair (there was NO weekend/after hour fee), and the repair was done in under 30 minutes! We are so thankful to have cool air again. We are going to continue to use their services in the future! Service: Repair HVAC

Wards installed our heat pump when our home was built and did great job Since then we have them perform the maintenance on our unit 2 times year. Cody, who came today was so very professional nice and knowledgeable, he showed us how our filters wete so dirty. He recommended changing filters every 2 months and this will keep your unit lasting a long time and save energy. We are very happy with Wards everyone talk to are are so nice. Mike C.
