About Certified Heating and Cooling, Refrigeration
Serving Bakersfield since 2003, Certified Heating and Cooling has built a 22-year reputation as Kern County's go-to HVAC-R contractor. With 42 five-star reviews averaging 4.9 stars, the company holds an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau. Their NATE-certified technicians specialize in both residential and commercial climate control, handling everything from routine tune-ups to complex system replaces for homes and businesses throughout the city and surrounding Valley communities.
What distinguishes this contractor from others in Kern County is their commitment to accountability backed by a written satisfaction guarantee. All technicians hold North American Technician Excellence certification, ensuring manufacturer-spec repairs on every call. Their financing programs make system upgrades accessible without upfront full payment, and they maintain 24/7 emergency availability with on-call technicians ready for overnight and weekend responses when systems fail outside standard business hours.
Customer reviews consistently highlight specific positive experiences. George Orduna noted Angel provided the most competitive quote among four companies, saving thousands on an identical unit. Leah Martinez praised their proactive communication before and after service. When Josiah Tube's commercial refrigerator stopped cooling, Certified responded with a qualified repair team that restored functionality. Their commercial division handles refrigeration units, ice machines, and specialized equipment beyond standard HVAC systems, a niche many area contractors avoid.
