About Ben-Air Heating & A/C
Ben-Air Heating & A/C has kept Whittier residents comfortable since 1996, operating under California contractor license 716973 C-20. The company maintains a perfect 5.0-star rating across 16 verified reviews, reflecting nearly three decades of consistent service to this southeast Los Angeles County community. Owner Ben Calabretta and his team serve homeowners throughout Whittier and neighboring communities including Santa Fe Springs, Pico Rivera, and La Mirada, handling everything from emergency repairs to complete system replacements.
What distinguishes Ben-Air from other regional contractors is their in-house sheet metal fabrication capability and their dedication to indoor air quality solutions. The company offers preventive maintenance agreements designed to extend system lifespan and reduce monthly utility costs, along with flexible financing options for major installations. A notable community benefit includes a 10% discount for seniors, military personnel, veterans, and active or retired law enforcement officers, a recognition program rarely seen among local HVAC companies.
Customer feedback reveals specific scenarios where Ben-Air excels. When Carla V's air conditioning failed during a heat wave, Ben personally arrived the same day to restore cooling before the new system installation. Charles Michael Goodwin's family required a complete system upgrade, and technicians Ben, Mark, and Richard completed the work with meticulous attention to detail while minimizing disruption to the home. Property manager Laurie Perschbacher notes her company has relied on Ben-Air for over 30 years across multiple properties, citing their consistent timeliness,clean work sites, and professional approach.
What Customers Say
All sixteen reviews award five stars, with three specifically naming principal technician Ben Calabretta and crew members Mark and Richard. Multiple reviewers highlight same-day emergency response and the company's willingness to assist before formal engagement, as evidenced by Carla's pre-installation visit during a heat wave.
