I can’t recommend The Mize Guys strongly enough. They installed a new wine cooling system over two and a half years ago which stopped working recently. Although it was definitely far out of warranty, they stood by their work, persuaded the equipment supplier to replace the failed component, out of warranty, and got the system running again for a very reasonable cost. Throughout the process all the staff were very professional and friendly.

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.

As an updated follow-up: “Are you elderly, like me? Or do you have senior aged loved ones?” Mize Guys Org and its employees show a special affection and a sincere concern for those who are vulnerable, or insecure about approaching a company regarding their HVAC “mysteries”. Their Techs have become our friends, always welcome in our home. Never! Never! will you need to worry or be suspicious. “Now isn’t that just how it’s supposed to be?”

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.

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.

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. And Thank you to Pat and Dr. George for telling us about Empire Heating and Air.

Very Gratefull

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.

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.
Response from the owner:Hey Zachary, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We genuinely appreciate your insights, as they help us improve our services. We understand how frustrating it can be to deal with issues related to your heating and air conditioning system. We are truly sorry that your recent experience did not meet your expectations. Our technician spent approximately 30 minutes on-site and 1.25 hours of travel confirmed by GPS tracking, which included thorough diagnostics to ensure an accurate assessment of your unit. We strive to provide comprehensive evaluations because we believe that a proper diagnosis is essential for effective repairs and to prevent future issues. The video merely serves as a backup in case the noises were not present upon us arriving onsite. Regarding the diagnostic fee, we communicate this upfront to all our customers, and we apologize if this was not clearly understood in your case. Our pricing reflects not only the time spent on-site but also the expertise and labor required to diagnose and repair complex systems. We are committed to ensuring that our customers receive high-quality service, and our technicians are trained to identify underlying issues that may not be immediately apparent. We understand that it may be tempting to compare prices from eight years ago, but please consider that parts, labor and operating costs can fluctuate significantly over time. The expertise we provide in diagnosing and repairing your system is designed to save you from potentially larger issues down the line, which can often justify the investment. We appreciate your feedback about our communication and will work on making our service fees even clearer to our customers moving forward. We truly value the fact that you found our staff responsive and nice, and we hope to have the opportunity to serve you better in the future. If you’d like to discuss your experience further, please feel free to reach out to us directly at 530.885.3333. We’re here to help. Thank you again for your feedback.

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.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review for your HVAC installation! We're thrilled to hear that you're satisfied with our service. Our team works hard to ensure a smooth and efficient installation process, and it's great to know that we've met your expectations. If you have any further questions or if there's anything else we can assist you with, please don't hesitate to reach out. Your comfort and satisfaction are our top priorities. Thanks again for choosing us for your HVAC 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. And Thank you to Pat and Dr. George for telling us about Empire Heating and Air.

Very Gratefull

Sam Ruderman
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!
Response from the owner:Hey Sam! It was my pleasure to chat with you. We are all learning and I love passing along what we know as we strive to become excellent at what we do. We are never too busy if it empowers someone else. I truly appreciate your kind words. It made my day and it's nice to know there are others out there who care like we do. I'm glad we connect. Please let us know if we can help you out in any other way! : )
Lauren Burke
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.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your kind words, Lauren! We are thrilled to hear that Empire has been able to exceed your expectations and provide you with outstanding professionalism, expertise, and customer service. We understand the importance of delivering on our promises and ensuring that every interaction with our team is professional and pleasant. We appreciate your recommendation and really look forward to continuing to serve you in the future! : )
Michael Scudero
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.
Response from the owner:Hi Michael. I'm very thankful you took the time to let us know that this was your experience out on the road. As an owner, I would like the opportunity to learn more. Please call in to 530.885.3333 so that I may get more detail in order to address this with out team. That is not at ALL our company policy or the image we want to project in a community that we care very much about.
James Montgomery
Mason and Morgan were awesome and got our AC system installed and up in running in one day, would recommend them for any job. Thank you!!

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!
