We have been Mize Guys customers since moving here to Auburn in 2022. And since day 1, our heating and cooling system has been in the capable hands of Conner Mize , our assigned technician. Conner is deeply familiar with the design, stability and health of our system. We literally sleep better at night knowing that we can depend on him for quickly addressing any issues that arise with our system. Needless to say, living here in Auburn, where temperatures are extreme during both summer and winter, dependable indoor climate control is critical to say the least.Always on time, courteous and confident, Conner is a delight to be around. This positive outlook seems to be characteristic of the entire Mize Guys staff. Scheduling appointments, discussing billing is always easy and pleasant. We fully trust this company with the overall health and maintenance of our homes HVAC. We would highly recommend them to anyone.Pete & Kimberly Nuessmann

Mize Guys (formerly Empire Mechanical) has done a variety of HVAC projects for us, such as installing additional vents for our heating system, and installing an excellent ductless heating and cooling unit in a large master bedroom. All of the work has been excellent, and the team is both friendly and highly knowledgeable.Last year, storms and flooding put my ductless system out of action. They promptly showed up and diagnosed the issue. It turned out that storm weather damaged the electrical circuit outside of the house. This was actually installed by my electrician (also a great resource), Walter Vaughan. Even before I could text Walter for help, they were in touch with him, telling him what they had found .. so we could get it fixed promptly.This year, during the hottest part of the summer, our air conditioner stopped working. Within hours, they got to the house, checked everything, and confirmed that the issue was just a breaker that was tripping inappropriately. They conveyed their findings to our electrician (Walter), so that his folks could replace it and check to be sure that they too saw nothing actually overloading the circuit.We have been pleased enough with Jay and his team to sign up for their ongoing maintenance plan. This covers scheduled work to keep our equipment running well .. and it also provides discounts for emergency calls outside of ordinary business hours.I highly recommend them, and we plan to be long term customers.

Irritated customer. I have a noisy motor in a gree air handler, mize guys staff asked for a video of the sound to diagnose the issue before scheduled a service call. They stated it would be $99 for a service call to verify. Cool didn’t think anything of it. Well their tech shows up, looked at my ac unit for less than 5 seconds, didn’t even open the unit, and then proceed to charge me for a service call and diagnostic fee totaling $258. A day later they called me with the quote to replace the motor that was $1519. I paid $1800 for the entire three zone system 8 years ago. Ordered the parts to do the repair myself for $63, support bearing and motor. I have no idea what they were doing to justify a $1500 repair bill on an air handler I can order brand new for $215. Other than that they were very responsive and nice. Please have your office staff inform customers of diagnostic fees or better yet include them in your service call fee. I feel very ripped off for less than 10 mins of your techs time. Lesson learned.

Very professional and thorough. Even during the busiest times such as heat waves in the summer with high demand for their services they still can provide after hours services when needed. Their communication and keeping touch with customers is excellent. Good customer service is obviously a high standard for this company.

When our 30+ year old HVAC system finally gave out on us at the onset of fall last year, Mize Guys came highly recommended—and we’re very happy they did.Michael from Mize Guys looked at our existing unit and showed us our options for a new HVAC. When it came time for installation, Mize Guys went above and beyond, even providing custom sheet metal work to ensure the new unit connected properly to our very old ducting configuration.On top of providing us with a great new HVAC system and fantastic service, every one of Mize Guys’ technicians and associates was very friendly and professional.I highly recommend giving Mize Guys a call for all of your heating and air conditioning needs.

Oct 23, 2023- Dave from Empire Heating and Air was here doing maintenance on our Heating and Air System that he installed 2 years ago. Such a nice guy, courteous and fast. I just Love Empire Heating and Air.Empire Heating and Air Conditioning are the best HVAC Business I've ever used. Jay, And Davey are sweet and professional, timely courteous. They explain everything they will do plus. Treacy is wonderful and came here to put the new filters in that worked better with our new system. We signed the proposal on Sunday and had our new system in on Friday. We have had our system since June 11, this year 2021. Wonderfully good people and a blessing from God. Thank you so very much for keeping us Cool during this heat wave. I sure hope I got Dave's name right.

Absolutely no other reason to call anyone else! Fast response. Found the problem in 20 minutes. Two other companies spent days and hours, frying the new parts they installed. What a relief to find “friends” in the HVAC business.

I called Empire to ask a few questions and learn more about HVAC projects and available rebates. Tracy took the time at the end of a busy day to answer all of my questions and provide exceptional guidance. It's not often you come across a company with staff like this these days, but when you do, it's the best. I highly recommend working with Tracy and Empire. Thanks again, Tracy!

Since we first met, Empire has been an outstanding example of professionalism, expertise, and customer service. My company contacted them after another AC company failed us terribly. We desperately needed someone to help us, and Empire exceeded our expectations. Every interaction with their front desk, technicians, and owner, Jay, has been professional and pleasant. They are highly knowledgeable and have been honest about what they can do for us. They deliver on their promise. I cannot stress enough how happy we are with this company. I highly recommend utilizing their services.

I will never hire this company strictly cause of how I see their drivers drive around. Twice in one day. I’ve seen them swirling in and out of traffic. Texting and driving. Watched him cut someone off get mad and brake check someone.

Empire has the most professional experienced team I have ever used. Empire saved me the price of installing a new unit and repaired my current AC unit. Coral in scheduling, Tracy in finance, Jay and Conner on the technical/repair side. THE best! Great team! Professional. I highly advise Empire is THE HVAC company to get your HVAC unit fixed right!

The HVAC at one of our rentals stopped cooling during a recent heat wave. Our tenants are elderly, so I wanted to get it back up and running quickly. Had another local H&A company come out and they told me the compressor had failed and that I needed a whole new system at a substantial cost. I felt pressured, but wisely told the the tech that I needed to get another opinion. I then had Empire come out. Connor and Morgan quickly determined that the only problem was a loose wire in the electrical panel. In less than 10 minutes they had it up and running, saving me from falsely having to buy a new system. Empire's techs were great in comparison to the other H&A company. I would give Empire 10 stars if I could.

Amazing! - That is Empire Heating and Air Conditioning in one word. I was very pleased with their timing, professionalism and friendliness when they installed a new HVAC a couple of years ago. No hard sells - just the necessary information to make a decision.Then something was wrong yesterday...right as we hit a major heat wave. I came home from being out of town and it was obvious that the HVAC wasn't working. I called Empire and they rewarded me with being their customer by getting someone out on the next day - a weekend. Mason arrived within the window given and was professional, friendly and quick! We were back up and cooling within less than a half hour! Amazing!

The team at Empire was super responsive to our cry for help when our HVAC went out during a very cold week. Their technicians were very knowledgeable and took their time to answer all of our questions and gave us several options when it came to choosing a new system. The company I work for also uses them frequently as they consistently give us excellent service. I highly recommend them!
