Report
We have been under contract annual maintenance agreement with Farwest, Inc since we bought this home in 2015. We are very satisfied with the company and the service technicians who come and make our semi-annual service calls. The techs are very well trained and friendly and personable. We have complete trust in their knowledge and training in the service of our HVAC unit which was installed in 2008.

I received several quotes to replace my air conditioning unit and keep my heater, Farwest was by far the best value.

I recommend Farwest Climate Control to anyone needing new air handling equipment for their home, they will be replacing our
