Cooler Tymes

What a terrific experience I had with this company. I live out of state and had a friend meet Mike from Cooler Tymes at my house in AZ for a service call and general check up. Mike was helpful, was honest, on time just like he said he would be and fast. Thank you Mike you have a new AZ home owner for a great working relationship. DonnaQ

This review is a long time coming. I’m a Realtor, landlord/​property manager and have been using Mike for several years after I found him right here on Unilocal.Mike is the Trifecta — he’s Knowledgeable, Reliable, & Honest. When I say knowledgeable, I mean that he not only knows everything about HVAC systems, but he is knowledgeable about many systems in the home. This last time I used him on one of my rentals, it turned out there wasn’t even a problem with the unit itself. Mike figured out the batteries in the thermostat had corroded blocking the connectors AND the circuit breakers were in the wrong order on the panel (which a different a/​c company installed before iI used Mike) and corrected both problems. Not only that, I called him at 5;30pm the night before. He managed to squeeze me in before his other calls and arrived at 7am. They were all cool in hour. They thanked me profusely and thought I was the hero-​but it was Mike! And this was on that 2^nd 110+ day of this year so I know he was real busy. The most important part about this story is that he could’ve said it was something much more expensive than it was, but he just charged me a little bit more than a service call. I’ve worked with so many other companies who immediately try to sell you another unit. Mike has never said that once to me. To me, the combination of knowledge, and honesty is the most I could ask for. The fact that he’s dependable also is just icing on the cake.
I couldn’t recommend Mike enough and that says a lot. Why? Because I’ve recommended other contractors to clients in the past, and when they screwed up, the clients blame me! So if I make recommendation, I know I could be losing a client if the contractor messes up and doesn’t make it right. Mike is one of the few on that select list. So stop reading reviews –You’ve found the guy you need to call!

My AC motor was making a loud noise on Saturday. I messaged mike through Unilocal and he got me a quote and OEM replacement fan. Can on Monday and did a install and system tune up. Very straight forward don’t seem like he will sell you something you don’t need. He walked me through everything he did and gave me some good tips. It’s nice to have a solid AC guy. His prices were lower than most.

Mike is a treasure-​trove of knowledge and knew exactly what was wrong with our AC system right away. With his recommendation of an energy-​saving replacement, we were able to save about $ 120 a month in electricity AND actually turn the temp down in the house to be very comfortable!
Mike was on the job the same day during the busiest time of summer and within two days he and his crew had the new system installed and saving us money… also gave a very nice military discount to this Marine Corps retiree.
I would recommend Cooler Tymes to anyone with cooling and heating issues! He is super fast, super friendly and super knowledgable. Don’t waste your time with a big company that is all about ripping you off. Small company, big service!

We really loved working with Mike on our recent service. He is very knowledgeable, friendly and we appreciate the time he took with us to explain our system and upgrade options. His prices seem to be very reasonable and very competitive.

Prompt, honest, and solved the problem quickly. I would definitely call Mike again when the need arises. Hard to find businesses like his anymore. The company I called before had an opening six days ahead… mike showed up the same day! Keep up the good work and thanks again.

Not only did Mike show up and do all the necessary repairs in a timely fashion, but his estimate was less than half of what the previous company gave us. We’ll be calling him again with any AC needs.

Hey All —
I have called Cooler Tymes now several times for various needs and each time Mike was fast to respond, completed the work quickly and provides an extremely fair price. My wife and I recently decided to move. An A\C tune up was requested. We had only a small window to complete the request. Although mike was busy I explained to him the importance of the situation and he came out in only a few days and was able to save the day. I will forever use this company for my A\C needs. Thanks again for your expertise and friendly professionalism Sir

My A/​C stopped working in the middle of July. Mike was there the very next day and had our house cool again. I have since referred him to several of my real estate clients. Mike is very honest and punctual. He has always done a great job for any families I send his way as well as my own.

What can we say? Our air conditioning broke down, we called Cooler Tymes, and Mike got it working right away. No waiting for hours, no waiting on a part to arrive, and no exorbitant fees. This is a professionally run operation and we recommend them without reservation.

Cooler Tymes was a pleasure to work with and Mike the owner is a class act. It was hard for me to believe they had a perfect rating but now I understand why. Mike was friendly, professional, efficient, and over delivered on what I was expecting. Used him to fix a busted A/​C unit at my house and he not only fixed the problem but was able to explain to me what went wrong because he was so fast he charged me less than what he quoted because it took such a short time. Honesty and service like that is hard to find today.
I will use Mike for every Heating and A/​C problem I have and highly recommend to others. I also rarely leave Unilocal reviews through sheer laziness but such good service deserves to be rewarded.

Very good service. I picked them based on the Unilocal reviews which were all positive. And now I can see why. All those reviews are accurate.
Mike was knowledgeable about the work needed, did not waste time, explained to me what he was checking for and fixed my A/​C on the same day. Having other appointments it’s always a guess on when he’ll be able to arrive, but he kept giving me updates on his expected arrival. His crew did their job well. All were just good people and easy to work with.
I definitely recommend Cooler Tymes to anyone needing HVAC work.

Great Tech! I called for a second opinion and he was able to give price and options over text message after I sent him a snap shot of the ID plate on the condenser unit instead of insisting on wasting time re-​diagnosing the problem. He was very knowledgeable and professional, was happy to explain things to a degree fitting my understanding of the equipment and did excellent work. He made a small mess when disconnecting the gauges but explained why it happened and cleaned it up, unlike the last Tech. Will definitely be my FIRST call next time!

Our A/​C quit and I found the great reviews for Cooler Tymes and gave Mike a call. He got me in the same day and was a pleasure to work with.
I was nervous that my wife was going to be home dealing with an A/​C guy since I couldn’t be there. I was afraid she was going to be told all kinds of things she didn’t need. Mike diagnosed the problem and fixed it quickly. He even gave my wife some training to help the system run better.
He did a great job at a fair price and even called the following day to make sure everything was working as it should.
Highly recommend Mike and Cooler Tymes.

We were experiencing a rattle in my AC system that was driving us pretty crazy. We found Cooler Tymes online via Google search. They were able to setup a call for the afternoon. The tech arrived on-​time and he was professional and courteous. The issue was identified and fixed very quickly. He gave me some advice regarding our system too — which was helpful because we only recently purchased the house.
I would recommend anyone in need of HVAC service or a new system to call Cooler Tymes. Thank you Mike for looking after us!

I called Cooler Tymes when our AC was blowing warm air but no cool air. Mike came out quickly and he was friendly. He quickly diagnosed the problem, had the part on his truck, and inexpensively replaced the part we needed. It’s been a couple weeks since he came out and my husband and I have noticed that the house is so much cooler! We are super excited to not have to crank up the AC so high to keep the house cool!!! Thank you!!!

Cooler Tymes has the most professional staff, response time, and like most all the other reviews, I left feeling very satisfied and happy with them.
They saved me money, addressed my concerns and handled everything very quickly. They thoroughly disscussed all my options and why each option would be good or bad. they simplified things so that someone who knows nothing about AC damage/​repair can understand them 100%.
I would recommend them to ANYONE in need of AC/​Dcut work.
Thank you COOLER TYMES!

First time using this company after having some bad experiences with others. Chose this one because of the positive reviews and I was not disappointed.
Mike responded very quickly and was friendly. He diagnosed the problem with our heating unit within minutes and explained everything in detail. He even had me come up in the attic so he could show me the problem. He fixed it quickly and charged less than $ 100.
I was very pleased with my service.

My fan motor went out at 2 am on the hottest day 116. I left a message for Mike and he was on the phone at 7 am. I was able to give him the model number etc and he was out in 3 hrs. (he picked up another quick service call in the mean time). He was able to replace the motor shortly thereafter. He didn’t try tell sell me a package or some other lengthy service contract etc. just fixed it.
Mike cares about growing his business and treating people right. He is and will continue to be successful. Thanks Mike

I contacted Cooler Tymes based off of their Unilocal reviews. We had one of our A/​C units stop cooling yesterday. I had my wife contact this company today. The technician, Mike, came out and my wife said he was very polite and professional.
After checking everything out he told my wife the TEV or (TX Valve) was clogged and needed to be replaced. He quoted us a repair (with parts) at $ 595.00. My wife told him she would talk to me. After she called me I said that seemed high and I wanted to discuss with Mike.
I called Mike and asked him what the price was based on. He went into his industry jargon. I think they do this to make our heads spin. I really do not need to know the psi of the Nitrogen he will be using, but he certainly let me know. I told him I would talk to my wife and get back to him. Then Mike offered me a deal. Straight up $ 500 to fix the unit. Had to be cash though. I told him I would get back to him.
I was working and talked to my wife about 30 minutes later and she said she spoke to Mike again. Now he was offering to fix everything for $ 400.
So…$ 595, to $ 500 and then $ 400…
Hmmm…sounded sketchy. It was.
We called another company and they came out. Not only was the TEV (TX Valve) not needing to be replaced, but he said that was a scam that some companies use.
He checked the clog and cleared it. Did a full system check. Price? $ 50. With tip it was $ 100.
Very disappointed in what Mike from Cooler Tymes tried to pull on us.
I am all for a company making money for services rendered; however, when the drop the price $ 200 in 1 hour it seems shady.
If you use these guys, I highly recommend you do your research.
