Miguel the owner, is very knowledgeable and will remind you constantly that he is an engineer. However his customer service is terrible. They installed a unit in my house that didn’t work for 10 days. They finally came and fixed it. Then after less than a month it started malfunctioning this according to a third-party that diagnosed the air conditioner they put in was fatigued and not working properly. It literally stopped functioning. They came back to the house as it was still under warranty and tried to blame the existing air conditioner, the vents, a tree that was removed, everything but owning up to their faulty system. When he tried to sell me another AC unit, I knew they were full of it. Beware!!!

If you want the best go to Desert Tech Air Conditioning and Heating. Miguel’s industry and technical knowledge is second to none. His customer service, integrity and thoroughness is greater than any we have ever experienced with any other service provider. Miguel is genius . He will design and provide you with a system that will not only save you money and perform beyond your expectations but be competitively priced. His crew is phenomenal and they are easily in a class all their own. Tony and Ernesto were meticulously thorough, protected our home and left things clean. These guys were professional, pleasant and safety minded. We could not be more pleased with their work and thoughtful handling of the installation and our home. Katie, who handles the office details, is another example of the high caliber people working at Desert Tech. Friendly with amazing follow up. Desert Tech is the best HVAC specialist in the area.

I needed to replace my homes original HVAC and water heater, and after getting vague quotes from several companies in Palm Springs, I found Desert Tech—when a neighbor recommended its owner, Miguel. Miguel patiently explained what would work best in the condo, and after I made a choice of systems and products, he and his men speedily addressed the situation. The condo presented some complications along the way, but nothing threw Miguel; he handled every twist and turn with aplomb. Miguel even helped us address a minor change we needed our home owners association to make in terms of lawn watering that had been negatively impacting our condo and its HVAC system. Desert Tech goes above and beyond the call of duty.

Desert Tech is an amazing company to work with. They are professional and are really concerned about whats in the best interest of the customer. They diagnosed my AC issue quickly, and for a very reasonable cost got it repaired and running in an efficient manner. Outstanding!

Miguel and his crew are true professionals! Not only are they knowledgeable in HVAC systems, which is essential, but even more important they treated me with genuine care and made sure I was completely satisfied with the work. In my case, I had Desert Tech install a home A/C unit as well as a furnace. They will ask you what it is you are looking to accomplish with your new A/C and/or furnace to meet not only your needs but recommend options that will meet your budget requirements. Desert Tech won my business and I will continue to use and recommend them to my friends and family!

Very professional company! When I woke up one morning, it was 87 degrees in my house. I called my previous AC company that I had used in June, two months prior. I called 5 times and left messages. No reply. I called Desert Tech and the receptionist answered right away and was very cordial. She set me up that very day within 2 or 3 hours. Robert was the technician and he explained everything and checked every part of my AC unit, including Freon levels. The part he replaced was the capacitor for 64.84. It was the same part that was replaced 2 months prior only it was priced at 160.00. I recommend this company. They are very honest and reasonably priced.

I’ve been using Desert Tech for more than ten years now on several rentals in the desert area. They are reliable, knowledgeable and fair. I know that even when I’m out of town my renters will be taken care of in a timely manner and the job will be done right. Miguel has even offered me alternative money saving solutions to AC problems in the past. Katie is a pleasure to work with when trying to work around my renters schedules. All I need to do is make one phone call and I know it’s taken care of. The field technicians are friendly, helpful and knowledgeable too. They are my go-to AC repair company. I absolutely recommend them.

I was very pleased and happy Desert Tech performed and installed the Furnace and AC unit. The transition between myself and Desert Tech. Being that Im not living in Palm Springs. I could not have chosen a better Company completing the task. Thank you Miguel Caballero and your staff for all your support and help. A job well done...!

We worked with several firms to choose which would replace our three 20-year-old HVAC systems. Miguel at Desert Tech provided the most comprehensive information and performed numerous complementary tests to help design the best system to work with our high-velocity duct system. The actual installation experienced some problems, but they were all addressed promptly when brought to Miguels attention. We are very pleased with the resulting new systems.

Desert Tech is excellent! Miguel really took the time to listen to my needs and was maniacal about being sure that i was understanding. Desert tech provided me with the most detailed proposal out of all 5 companies i was researching. Miguels staff showed up on time, were meticulous and cleaned up after themselves. I am extremely pleased and have no qualms recommending Desert Tech who is now my official HVAC company. The house is cool and Im saving money.

Based on a recommendation from a neighbour and the reviews I read on line, I hired Desert Tech Air Conditioning & Heating put in a new Ac/furnace in my home. Miguel came out and did a through analysis of my home and its needs. He then provided me with comprehensive report on what he recommended and what the cost would be. We then determined a date for installation. His crew was there on time and did an excellent job to putting in the new system. Once it was complete, Miguel return and checked the system out and went over all the things I need to know. It has now been in for several months and I am extremely happy with it and would recommend Desert Tech to anyone considering purchasing a new AC/furnace system.

Desert Tech installed a dual mini Samsung heat pump system with professional precision that truly impressed me. With little extra cost they moved my original mini system to a new location. They were truly willing to please not only with the installation but also with tutoring me and my wife with a wireless system and the manual remotes. I have nothing but respect for this company and its employees. They accomplished exactly what I expected (which was a lot), even new variations that needed to be exchanged or upgraded. With all this in mind I agreed to have them service my systems annually with peace of mind. I recommend highly!

Miguel was very knowledgeable about how to make my cooling system more efficient. In fact we used him for the inspection of this home before we bought it. His workers were nice. The parts are very good quality. I would consider using his company in the future.

What a great experience! It was a pleasure working with Miguel and the entire team. Received good advice, a great quote, and the multi-room mini-split system with hidden ductwork was installed beautifully. Whisper quiet, perfect temp control, - works great. Especially appreciated the friendly response to questions and the willingness to adjust the work schedule to meet my needs. When there was a small problem with line condensation they promptly took care of it at no cost. You cannot do any better than this level of quality, service and price!

I have several rental properties so I always get several bids on work that is needed; 3 companies quoted this job and 2 said it would cost $5k because the unit is not repairable....but Desert Tech found the problem and repaired it for less than $200!! They are by far the best guys I have found!

Before hiring Desert Tech I did my research (even checked their references) who had nothing but good things to say! Turns out their correct, I couldnt believe how courteous and polite the workers were. It was a warm day and my AC was having issues so they made sure they kept it on as long as possible so I wouldnt be uncomfortable too long. The new unit is quiet as a mouse and it was the cheapest pricing around town!

When I put out the RFP on the Internet, I received 7 phone responses within a day. Miguels was the 7th. The first 6 were the big guys. No one was an engineer, they were all inexperienced polite customer service types who didnt know FREON from CONDENSATE. I am an engineer type who taught chemistry and physics for 13 years back in NJ. I wanted someone who could talk shop and get into the weeds. Miguel was more than happy to oblige, and he sold me on a contract before I even met him or did research. Subsequently, I met his staff and was even more impressed. The installation was a complete replacement with some architectural modifications so that filter access was easy and visually pleasing. The entire installation began within a week, and was finished in 2 days! I was in awe of such a service. If you want a fair price, professional evaluation, good options, and other recommendations, then Miguel and Desert Tech is #1. They are exceptionally professional and honest..

I met Miguel and was wonderfully surprised with his outstanding customer service and followup- not only was Miguel great, each staff member and installers that I met or spoke with were all very professional and knowledgeable. The installation went great and the new A/C works fantastic, not a hiccup or a flaw. I researched and had a few quotes from various installers and of course I made the right choice choosing Desert tech !! Thanks team.Dianne

Desert Tech Air Conditioning & Heating have been servicing my Air Conditioners and Heating equipment for about 8 years and they have always been timely and are very professional during the maintenance and they displayed excellent customer service. They serviced my air conditioners as I had called them because my electricity bill was about $480.00 a month and I felt there was something wrong with my units. After they serviced my Air Conditioners my bill was reduced to $210.00 a month. This was fantastic as I was saving over $210.00 a month. Recently I purchase a new air conditioner and they gave me the best quality service. I have also maintained my air conditioners by having a Yearly Service Maintenance Program so I can make sure my units are working economically and eficiently. I am very happy with Desert Tech and I always refer my friends to them as they are an Excellent company.

Ive been using Desert Tech for at least two years now. Staff is knowledgeable, professional, good rates too. When I first hired them they pointed out a big gap on my AC unit that was allowing air to escape. Because of this the air wasnt cooling enough and the unit would keep running almost continuously. The serviceman went out of his way to fix it. After that Ive had no problems. I service my unit twice a year, usually Miguel the owner calls you back to check and make sure everything was taken care of.

I had three bids to replace my air conditioner and solve my problem. I had one a/c unit for my master bedroom and two bedrooms on the opposite side of the house. The two spare bedrooms were unusable in summer as the air didnt reach them. Miguel solved my problem and I now have full use of my home in the summer. He did extra work,at his expense, because he takes pride in his work. He charges no more than other companies, but gets the job done right. I could not have been happier with desert tech.

Having dealt with the owner, Miguel, as well as various members of his staff, it is clear to see how they have become the local market leader and created such a great reputation over the last 30 plus years. Im very glad to have met such a professional and caring group of professionals and can totally recommend them.

I got the job booked within one day of my first call to Desert Tech. They called us to schedule the work at a convenient time for us and we agreed on a date/time one week later. The technician arrived just after the beginning of the promised window. He was courteous, professional, informative, and got right to work as soon as he came in. He cleaned the furnace in the attic, which accumulates a ton of sand in the desert. Outside he found a failing capacitor and replaced it on the spot with one from the truck. After all of that, the job was completed in about 1.5 hours! The single best quality of the whole experience was the technicians politeness and professionalism. I love it when a service company actually treats you like a customer. Just wonderful!

To summarize my experience with Desert Tech after selecting is quite simply one of the finest companies I have ever dealt with. Miguel, the owner was very patient with my lack of knowledge in this filed and impressed me more than any other rep of a company.

Buyer Beware!Invoiced 400% as a material markup and charged for two hours when their technician was there for 22 minutes!When challenging the invoice the owner responds I shall therefore in turn respond with a civil action, in order to pursue slander charges and malicious law suit feesThats not customer service by my standards!
