Amazing craftemanship and care for detail. We needed an AC unit installed and got a visit from another local company. They didn't get back with a quote for weeks so I looked into Van Wye who did our neighbors house. Dan checked it out, got us quote quick and answered any and all questions and gave us options. Our situation was tricky and necessitated modifications to our intake vent that required cutting into the baseboard. Not only did Dan do that, but he brought a new replacement grid that matched our old one--that wasn't even in the bid! He made sure that everything worked perfectly and walked us through the new system. Very chill and competent and accessible person. (FYI The other company's bid was almost $1500 more and made a point of saying that the intake issues was our responsibility. To me, this reflects the difference in approach to work--Dan wasn't going to leave until it was totally ready to go where the other company was fine leaving with a problematic intake vent.)
Dan is very professional, on time, and thero. I highly recommend him.
Highly recommend Van Wyhe Heating and Air! They were professional, responsive and reasonable. Don’t hesitate to use them!
Downstairs AC broke and Daniel was quick to get out and fix it! Best prices ever! Super nice and professional! He will be the only ones we use from now on!
I was looking for an HONEST A/C tech and it seemed, like trying to find a needle in a haystack, but luckily I found Dan. (when I checked many other company reviews out, there were some real rip off artists) Anyway, he came out to look at my 40 yr old unit (pictured below) checked the refrigerant levels + electrical which needed a minor repair, replaced pipe insulation and lucky everything else was fine. Just had to pay his service call. I'm very grateful to him. He said my unit could possibly run another 2 years, maybe as long as 10. When I do need to replace it, I DEFINATELY know who I'm calling to do the work.
Dan Van Whye is amazing! Honesty, integrity, and attention to detail are just a few of the ways he does business. Seeking our house, and the buyer's home inspector claimed our 30 year old AC system was on it's last legs. We scheduled Dan for an evaluation and sent him the home inspectors report. He assessed the system and said it was operating amazingly well, that the ways the home inspector "tested" it were not done correctly, and that he could get it working even better. I asked for a quote to replace it just to have one, and he told me he'd give me one, but that he'd feel really bad about us spending the money to replace it when it was working so well. We had him do the cleaning and maintenance and it's still running like a champ!
I highly recommend Dan and his work. • Super responsive • Very fair pricing • Professional and courteous
I had a really great experience with Dan at Van Wyhe Heating and AC. On a cold stormy day I tried to install a new digital thermostat myself and failed miserably. I called Dan, who answered right away and found time to come by later in the day. It turned out to be little more complex than I thought, and he was really good at explaining what was happening, and then he fixed it. I really appreciated how responsive and personable he was, and he will definitely be my go-to HVAC person from now on.
I highly recommend Dan from Van Wyhe Heating and Air Conditioning in Vista, San Diego. He's extremely professional and knowledgeable on HVAC. Installed my entire system in a couple days.
Dan did a great job with our AC. Came out promptly, provided a thorough and complete quote, provided options, and throughout the whole process was easy to get ahold of and responded quickly to questions. Our new AC system and furnaces are working great and I would recommend strongly.
I needed to replace my aging HVAC system and received 4 estimates. One of my compressors failed during a heat wave and Dan responded to my phone call quickly. He was able to give me an estimate over the phone after I provided my current systems specs/pics. The other 3 companies couldn't give me an estimate over the phone. Dan's estimate was the least expensive, and for a 16 SEER vs the 14 SEER system for the other 3 bids. I saved thousands and in one case over 10 thousand dollars by going with Dan. The system worked perfectly during the summer and I've had the heat on several times now and it works perfectly too. Dan always communicated quickly, was on time, and with zero BS. Yes Dan's bid was the lowest for higher rated equipment, but I really appreciated how honest Dan was. Hiring Dan was like getting help from that friend or family member that knows the business, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the entire process. I highly recommend Dan for all your HVAC needs!
Dan was amazing, from getting a quote to scheduling the installation and getting the job done, I was truly impressed, and thankful since he came right at the peak of hot and humid season, with a very competitive quote and a very fast and clean installation. The mini split has been working great, kept us cool during the hot days and is keeping us warm during this cold season! Thank you, Dan. I would absolutely recommend!
We are so impressed with the work of Dan Van Whye HVAC. Dan installed an AC and heating system customized to fit our needs. We love the air scrubber he installed for our allergies. Dan was on time and professional. We highly recommend Van Whye HVAC!
I called Dan from my brothers referral. I instantly felt good about my experience from the first call. He is polite, honest,and thorough. My estimate was more comparable to honest quoting, not like a lot of these companies that charge you double to install a unit. He installed the unit pretty quick too, less than 2 weeks later. He was quick and the installation looks great. If he did foundation to attic I would use him for everything in my home. Oh well! I will have to stick to my hvac system for now! Thanks Dan!!
Dan is awesome! We are acting GC (owner builder) for our ADU (granny flat) in Encinitas and Dan has been great through this whole process with us. Started back in February and finished in May. Was able to assist in any city inspector questions during sign offs. We bought our own unit and he installed for us. We went with ductless ceiling cassettes with dual zone. Would highly recommend! (Just be patient - busy time right now) his price is very fair!
To say Van Whye HVAC saved the day is an understatement. My husband and I have been trying to avoid the inevitable for years and not fully replace our AC unit at one time. We have had Daniel work on our system multiple times and he was always honest, creative and diligent in his work and plan for our system. He came up with solutions that worked for our families budget and was willing to accommodate our ever changing schedules. I can honestly say the integrity of this company is a testimony to his work. He replaced a very old system and made it look seamless in the same space. I recommend Van Whye HVAC to all my friends and family.
Dan gave me free advice on how to fix my furnace problem.Would highly recommend him for future work. Jim Black
Very knowledgeable HVAC contractor. Did an excellent job on our AC. Very courteous and professional. Will use again to replace our old heater soon!!
Dan was great from the start to the finish. We had him advise us on how to deal with our 30 year old furnace, AC & ducting. He didn't push us on buying EVERYTHING new when all that was wrong was a broken furnace. In fact, he fixed the furnace during our free consult, meaning we wouldn't actually have to buy anything new, and was on his way out the door when we insisted on paying him at least SOMETHING for the fix. Probably a month later we called Dan and asked him to replace our furnace, replace all our ducting, and put on new vents in the house to make everything more efficient. He was competitive in pricing, transparent in quoting, and easy-going throughout our interactions. He even helped do some custom ducting work to our garage-office at a very reasonable rate, and it looks great! I will absolutely be hiring Dan and his team again when we're ready to replace our A/C, and I have already recommended him to friends and neighbors. Really a great contractor to work with! I highly recommend Dan!
After experiencing some issues with my AC, I contacted Van Wyhe Heating & AC. Dan responded quickly and was able to fix the problem in no time. AC now works better than ever and I couldn't be happier as summer approaches. Huge thanks to Dan!
