My experience with Essential Heating and Air was excellent, from the initial estimate through day of installation and the follow-up afterward. Every one of their team was professional, courteous, and diligent in making sure I was satisfied. Thank you!

Outstanding company - highly recommend. Installed a ductless single unit system in primary bedroom. They were extremely transparent and responsive at every step of the process. I will definitely use them again. Cannot recommend enough.

The team at Essential Mechanical did a great job installing our ducted heat pump system. They were, and continue to be, responsive and professional. They started and completed the job on time and within the quoted price--the installers worked very long days to make sure everything was in place and worked properly. They were able to put in place the solution that worked best for our home.
Since we had a ducted system, my advice to others is to tape out where the agreed upon vents go ahead of time and to ask them to check in if this placement needs to be altered due to the structure or other unknowns. We ended up with two vents out of place but the team worked to correct the issue to meet what we were looking for.
The team continues to be available for questions and assistance as needed. I would select Essential Mechanical again for any future heating or A/C needs!

Really enjoyed working with the tech and learning about my system for a general tune- up and routine maintenance. Alex took his time to kindly explain my system, how it works, and how to maintain its life and keep it working. We didn’t need anything major and Alex took the time to make the small adjustments to keep our system running for the long haul.
Essential Mechanical was one of 4 companies that we called to get a bid for A/C install and in short we went with them primarily due to their knowledge and their price is very fair. We have 3 temperature zones in our house and they were the only ones who brought up which units to purchase, the other company's salespeople weren't aware that not all units support multiple zones. Last thing to mention is that when they were done, they did a full audit of which vent was tied to which zoned area (you can't always tell which Nest unit goes to which room, for example they told us that an upstairs Nest actually worked for 1 vent downstairs.)
Anyways, I highly recommend them. Aside from cost and knowledge, they are the ABSOLUTELY nicest and well mannered guys, while also maintaining professionalism. You'll see my reviews in sites, mainly because I have zero hesitation about recommending them and I hope they continue to be successful.
BTW, I'm in Kirkland and there was no hesitation for them to come this far.
