Claim This BusinessValley Heating & Cooling Inc has operated as a full-service heating contractor in Rhode Island since 2012, serving residential and light commercial customers from its Richmond base. The company holds an active license in the state and maintains an A rating with the Better Business Bureau. With 57 verified customer reviews, the business carries a 3.8-star average rating. The company operates around the clock, every day of the week, dispatching technicians to properties across southern Rhode Island including Richmond, Exeter, and the surrounding Washington County communities. This local presence means service calls typically arrive within the same day of scheduling, whether for routine maintenance or emergency heating failures during overnight cold snaps.
The contractor specializes in the installation and repair of residential forced-air heating systems, including natural gas furnaces, oil-fired units, and heat pump configurations. Valley Heating & Cooling maintains in-house diagnostic capabilities for all major HVAC brands, allowing technicians to identify faulty ignitors, malfunctioning flame sensors, and compressor issues without outsourcing repairs. The company offers preventive maintenance agreements that include seasonal tune-ups, filter replacements, and system inspections designed to extend equipment lifespan. For customers pursuing energy efficiency upgrades, the contractor provides guidance on available Rhode Island energy rebates for qualifying high-efficiency equipment installations.
Customer experiences highlight the company's responsive service during challenging situations. Technician Zack, supported by Don and Clarence, recently completed a gas furnace installation for a homeowner in the service area, explaining system operations clearly throughout the process. Another reviewer noted the crew arrived on schedule and maintained clear communication from initial call through job completion. Long-term customers describe relationships spanning over a decade with consistent service quality, noting that the same technician team handles their annual maintenance and any repair needs that arise.
Four of five detailed reviews mention specific positive outcomes: furnace installations, on-time arrivals, and clear communication. Three reviewers rated the service five stars citing technical competence and friendly technicians. The two lower ratings center on pricing concerns and an isolated incident unrelated to HVAC work. Positive reviews name technicians by name while negative reviews focus on billing disputes rather than service quality.
