I have done business with Rice Heating for years and my experience has been very positive. Good products and good service. Keep up the good work.
May God bless the business and all the staff.
Rice Heating answered my questions on repairs on my air conditioner. It was very helpful. My problem turned out to be electrical, and they directed me to the right people. They were very knowledgeable. I appreciate their time to answer my questions and help me resolve my issue. Thank you Rice Heating!
My experience with Rice Heating was great. The two service technicians were very professional, courteous, and explained the issue with my filter. They also cleaned up after their work and discussed what they did for me. I have had an issue with my thermostat, and they worked patiently with me to get that reprogrammed. I have absolutely recommended them several times to friends in both Corvallis and Albany. I trust the company and their workmanship, and I will use Rice Heating in future.
My recommendation for Heating and Air Conditioning service and installation is Rice Heating and Air Conditioning in Tangent, OR. Owner Calvin Rice and his technicians have always provided prompt and friendly service as well as very good maintenance and repair for our home systems for over 12 years. In that period of time they have also installed a new furnace as well as a new hot water heater. We have always been able to depend on Rice Heating and Air Conditioning.
I went with Rice Heating because they were well recommended. Service guy came on time, wore shoe coverings, and answered all my questions. They’re 10 out of 10! I’d recommend them to friends and neighbors.
Thanks for dropping by Tuesday to check on my furnace and thermostat and also not try to sell me a new furnace.
Your guy came by later to check on the furnace and thermostat. He found nothing wrong with the furnace but discovered that the furnace was turning on and off too quickly. He explained that systems such as mine are set to turn on and off about 9 times an hour. Installed a new thermostat and the furnace is now turning on and off at about 7 minutes, which is better. I can now manage my cycle better by setting the thermostat at about 67 degrees and using a space heater in my tv/den room where I spend a lot of my days. Thanks again.
I chose Rice Heating because Integrity Flooring recommended them and I liked Calvin’s presentation. Their team was great, and I will recommend them to any of my friends or neighbors.
I appreciate the fast service!!!
Rice Heating fixed a problem a different repairman could not.
Rice Heating was the first company to respond, and I’m well pleased with their service.
The day our heating and cooling went out, and the temperature was 90 degrees, we called Rice Heating. They came out the next morning, and we were thrilled to see them so soon. The guys were thorough, very friendly, and they explained well what was going on with our unit. We hope to call them in future for all our heating and cooling needs.
The service man that came to my home was friendly and knowledgeable. Did his job quietly and then left. He let me know that everything was in good condition.
Rice Heating/Air installed my unit six years ago. I have been very pleased with the service. They are very responsive to questions. They have provided routine check ups. I am thankful for their professional and reliable service.
Rice Heating did a great job on checking out my fireplace insert and furnace and heat pump. Very
professional and thorough. Thanks again
Responded promptly, came on time and took care of the problem. Would call again.
We love the job Rice Heating & Air has done. We have had them come out here for a long time. The tech did a really good job on this last visit. Everything was great.
Calvin and his crew have been handling all the units we manage for years. They are always professional, courteous, and get the job done correctly. They are always willing to take the extra step to make sure our tenants are taken care of. We can’t thank them enough for all the hard work and support they provide our company.
Dear Cal + Crew,
Thank you, once again, for coming to the rescue. I always appreciate you taking good care of us. Belated thanks.
We were so grateful that the heat pump and air handler system were installed before this ice and snow event arrived! Thank you to whomever at Rice made this happen.
Hi Rice Heating! Thanks for fixing up my gas fireplace!! The warmth back in the house is greatly appreciated!
I have been using Rice Heating for a number of years. In 2022 they installed a new HVAC system. They did a superb job and I’ve been very satisfied with the work and results. I also use them for regular on-going maintenance. From the employees who answer the phone and schedule appointments to the service providers and the owner, these are friendly, reliable and professional people. I highly recommend Rice Heating and Air Conditioning. You will not be disappointed!
I would highly recommend Rice’s Heating to anyone. They are professional, knowledgeable, courteous and always willing to explain any questions the customer might have. I have purchased a wide range of HVAC items from them and am very pleased with the service and the performance of each item.
I was so impressed with your service technician that serviced my heat pump and furnace on April 16th. We had forgotten to move boxes that were in front of our furnace and it didn’t bother him, he said no problem and just reached over the obstacles to replace the furnace filter.
He continued to service the heat pump and knocked to ask to come in to turn the furnace on at the thermostat, each time knocking to make sure it was still okay to come into the house. Before he left he made sure everything on the thermostat was set to how we wanted it and asked if we had any questions he could answer for us. He was very professional and friendly.
Thank you for your great service,
We had Rices install our AC unit when we first moved into our home almost 10 years ago. With our 10 year warranty period about to wrap up we thought it a good idea to have everything inspected. The folks who took my phone call to set the appointment and their field technician (Vince) were as friendly and professional as the first time we reached out a decade ago. I love that it’s always a great day at rices and will continue calling for all my heating and cooling needs. Thank you!
My wife, Debra, and I were extremely satisfied with the recent maintenance performed on our heating and cooling systems.
In particular, the technician was extremely polite as well as competent! I was very comfortable having him in our home!
Overall, I can confidently give Rice Heating a top rating.
Rice heating has been taking care of our heating and cooling system for decades now. I love them! The technicians are always thorough and knowledgeable. We installed our system in 1997, and thanks to the great care it gets with Rice, we rarely have a problem. And never one that couldn’t be easily fixed. When it does finally go, I will be calling Rice Heating and Air.
Calvin and his crew have been handling all the units we manage for years. They are always professional, courteous, and get the job done correctly. They are always willing to take the extra step to make sure our tenants are taken care of. We can’t thank them enough for all the hard work and support they provide our company.
Thank you for the excellent service your team always provides us. We’ve used Rice Heating for years, and when our old system finally needed to be replaced last year, we didn’t even consider looking anywhere else for a new one. Everyone we’ve met is professional, knowledgeable and takes the time to answer all of our questions. We highly recommend Rice Heating to anyone needing a new system or maintenance on their current system. Thanks again!
We are very happy to have our new air conditioning unit installed. It passed all inspections and installers did a great job. We’re confident we’ll be cool in the warm weather.
I highly recommend Rice Heating. They are courteous, professional, on time and do a great job. I have great trust in their abilities. I have used them for many years and will continue to do so.
Rice Heating and Air has always been very responsive not only when we were installing 2 new systems but also when we have any kind of issue that came up. Phone calls are answered right away and very professionally. We even called when our system went out in the heat on a weekend. The owner himself came out to troubleshoot. A service tech was sent out first thing Monday morning and our A/C was back on by noon that day. I would recommend Rice Heating and if we have any additional needs in the future, we will use this company.
I greatly appreciate the professionalism and integrity of the staff at Rice Heating.
Rice continues to excel keeping my home comfortable over the past 14 years. Outstanding service from excellent people. Always professional and polite and patient. Keeping us warm in winter and cool in summer. Excellent company to do business. Many thanks.
My husband and I were pleased with the technician who serviced our heat pump. I think the technician’s name was Jason. He gave the heat pump a thorough looking over as a routine maintenance check.
Rice Heating and Cooling did a great job servicing our AC unit. The scheduling process was easy and the technician was on time and professional. We highly recommend them.
My ac/heating unit I purchased almost a year ago was due for its free service. Since I missed the winter check Rice Heating was nice & let me get both ac & heat checked in one trip yesterday (9-3-24)!
Vince was a nice technician. Personable & got along great with my cats!
And everybody I worked with getting the estimate & installation of the new unit did fine work!
Calvin runs a great business!
Rice Heating provided excellent service, start to finish, on routine heat pump, furnace, and fireplace maintenance. The technician was on time, professional, and knowledgeable. Besides the normal cleaning and operational checks, the tech also helped reconfigure my thermostat to adjust the low-temperature transition point from the heat pump to the furnace and even found an improperly set parameter courtesy of a different contractor. They made it easy on me and earned 5/5 stars.
Brian was a great technician. He was an A+. Really helpful, explained everything he did, checked the system thoroughly. He’s very pleasant and helpful.
We bought a new house and didn’t know if the heat pump was functioning properly.
We called Rice Heating & AC. A service technician came over and checked out the
heat pump and explained how it worked and that everything was in order. He then
explained how the electronic air filter worked and how to clean it. He was very
knowledgeable and polite. The service was great. Highly recommended.
Rice Heating and AC, Inc. provided excellent service and information during my equipment check-up.
I have been a satisfied customer for many years.
First…. I would like to Thank Calvin very much for asking me questions of my monthly income when he came to do the bid for a new heat pump & furnace in May this year…. The heat pump had gone out completely and my furnace was too old to be compatible to a new heat pump. I am a widow who has a smaller income. He offered to apply for Energy Assistance for my needed replacements and followed through on it. I am so very grateful to him for the dollars the assistance saved me! I had called other local and nearby companies to come to do a bid for me. They did not go through energy assistance….I would have to do that myself, then they would do a bid!
Recently I had the first of my two free service calls. The tec was very pleasant and answered my questions with explanations as well ! I would recommend Rice Heating to my family, friends & neighbors for sure!
We are very happy with the company. We have been customers for years, and we have used them even when we move. We like the way they run with things; Calvin has a great company.
One morning we woke to water running down the wall. After some research we found the air handler upstairs was leaking water.
We called Rice and they came out the next day.
The tech confirmed what we expected that the 16 year old unit needed replaced. Rice gave me a couple options to replace the unit. After our decision. Rice was very quick at putting us on the schedule and getting the new unit installed. Including hauling off the old one.
I would definitely recommend Rice to anybody.
Thank You for your good service!!
I’ve always had such good experiences and interactions with your company, that I’ve felt great sending real estate clients your way for years!
Rice Heating,
Thank you for the wonderful service we have received over the years. You always are prompt in responding to any issue we have had, emergency or scheduled. Everyone has been more than friendly. It is so very appreciated. Thanks again!
Thanks so much for the great work and for the kindness of your installers and staff.
Thanks for the new heat pump. We appreciate the swift service.
Thank you Rice Heating for your prompt and always reliable service. My many questions were happily answered to my satisfaction. I highly encourage you to call Rice for your heating and air conditioning needs. Thank you Calvin and team!
I chose Rice Heating because of Calvin’s very thorough estimate! The serviceman came early. He made sure to wear shoe coverings, and he answered all my questions. I was very satisfied with their service, and I give them a 10. I’d refer my friends and family for sure.
Rice Heating installed a gas furnace for me, making it a priority because of the cold weather. My father said, “Have Calvin do it.” He trusts Calvin. The Rice Heating team treated me very well, and they couldn’t have done a better job. I’ve already referred them to my friends and neighbors.
I was recommended to Rice Heating by my brother. Calvin, the office staff, and installer were great, and I have no criticism! Definitely will recommend them to everyone!
I chose Rice Heating because they had the fastest response.
Rice Heating was local and had availability. They were on time, answered any questions, and were considerate in wearing shoe coverings in my house. I am satisfied with the service I received and would give them a 10. I will be putting in a good word with my family and friends.
I was very pleased with Rice Heating. I called on Monday morning, and a repairman arrived that afternoon and took care of the problem with an unresponsive thermostat. Seems to be working fine now.
I wanted to give a report about your employee, Brian. He has a great personality. He got the problem fixed, and we’re just tickled to death. He’s a really neat guy and did a great job. Thank you so very much for getting this taken care of.
I’ve known Calvin for 30 years. He and my father-in-law were best of friends, and Calvin helped him with many projects. Over the last 25 years, Calvin has come out to service my equipment. He and his team are top-notch. I have been telling others about and recommending Rice Heating and Air. They are a top-notch company. If you have any problems, they are the #1 company to call.
Our technician Brian was excellent. He described what he was doing and answered our questions as he serviced our heating and air conditioning systems. He was courteous and pleasant to work with. We are very happy with Rice and will continue to use them in the future.
Thank You,
The service techs from Rice heating have always been professional and helpful. In fact I think the owner was out here once or twice, when things were busy and he was very friendly too. I have never felt pressured to upgrade or buy new equipment, and the VIP program allows me to know that my somewhat elderly furnace and AC are being well taken care of.
All the techs that work for Calvin’s business, I appreciate. I always feel secure when they leave. In the five to six years we have used Rice Heating and Air, we never have had to call them back when they leave. That’s unusual in this day and age from what I have heard from my friends and their experiences. I’d recommend them to anyone who wants the job done right.
Vince has been out the last few times to service my heating and air conditioning systems. He’s very thorough in checking out both systems. He always lets me know if there are any issues that need attention now, or could need attention in the near future. I appreciate that.
Brian was very thorough. He did a great job. We had many questions for him, and he was very patient going through things with us. I like to be handy around the house, and he answered my questions about possible ductwork for the future. It was a very valuable visit. I have been monitoring the unit since it was repaired, and it seems responsive to all our thermostat adjustments.
We are so pleased to be part of the “Rice Heating family.” They always take great care of us and we’re happy to be one of their regular customers. Recently technician Vince was here to service our heating and AC system. Vince was pleasant, professional and provided valuable advice on adjusting our fan settings. Thank you to Vince and the rest of the Rice Heating staff for taking such great care of us.
Just want to say that the technician that came to my house was excellent and went above and beyond and our furnace is working better than it has in a long time! I also thought your pricing was very fair. Thank you.
Last January my 20-year-old Trane HVAC died at a most inopportune time! Cold weather but as I called Rice Heating & Air Conditioning for assistance, they were right there for me! Within a few days they installed a York HVAC which has been humming along ever since. Last week I received a call to schedule a maintenance check. Both the installing tech & the maintenance tech were professional and efficient. I am very pleased with their family business and will be a long-term customer in the future.
Your tech, Brian, is one thorough technician. Most extensive check of our system to date. Me of course worrying he’s going to find something wrong. Heh.This system’s worked perfect for us since October 2014. I think the tags say installed 2011. I would give all 5 stars about his service.
We have used Rice Heating and AC for our maintenance repairs as needed for our home. The work has always been well done and the technicians are knowledgeable, efficient and courteous. We highly recommend this company for their work.
Rice Heating has been doing annual maintenance of our heating/cooling system for more than ten years. Ever since Calvin himself came to fix a problem when there was heavy snow, we have been with Rice Heating for all the annual service.
The service technicians who come twice a year are very professional and take the time to explain if there is a problem.
Great work.
We have used Rice Heating for the past 17 years and would recommend their great service to anyone else. They are always on time and their prices are very competitive. The service person is friendly and knowledgeable. I would not choose anyone else.
Thanks.
We have worked with Rice for several years – the USA Contract option. The service has been timely – and friendly. All explanations have been made on our level of understanding – a definite Plus. We recommend them to any others who have aging heat pumps.
Brian arrived right on time. He was pleasant, and knowledgeable. I always appreciate that Rice’s technicians always wear protective shoe covers in our house, protecting our hardwood floors. He checked the inside unit thoroughly, replacing filters, and made sure everything was up to parr. Outside he checked refrigerant levels and pressures. Cleaned coils of outside unit. He also vacuumed out the condensate drain line, making sure it was clear. I think this is the first time any technician has ever done this–shows how thorough he was.
In all, I feel he was very professional, friendly, explaining what he was doing.
I look forward to having him service our equipment again!
Brian was very thorough. He did a great job. We had many questions for him, and he was very patient going through things with us. I like to be handy around the house, and he answered my questions about possible ductwork for the future. It was a very valuable visit. I have been monitoring the unit since it was repaired, and it seems responsive to all our thermostat adjustments.
The gentleman that came to my home on a service call was not only friendly but very knowledgeable. He spent quite a bit of time making sure that my equipment was in good working shape. I am quite pleased with how he performed the inspection thoroughly, and he was extremely well versed in communicating to me the necessary information I needed.
Thank you for your outstanding service for my furnace and air conditioner. Your employee was on time, very courteous and quick with the services provided. I have used Rice Heating and Air Conditioning for the past several years. Excellent service.
I want to thank you for all the years of Awesome service and care you have given. Calvin I want to hand it to you you know how to pick them, Vince just left !!! Thanks Again
We returned home after a short trip in 103 degree weather and found our home AC had failed. We were in a very tough spot and Rice AC worked us into their very busy day and saved us. Cool air was soon on the way. Love them!
5 out of 5 stars for Rice Heating.
Couldn’t believe that Rice Heating could get to me same day when our a/c quit during a heatwave (103F!). Expert efficiency and friendly. What a good attitude Brian had while working in that heat! So grateful. I’ve used Rice Heating since moving to Mid-Valley and have always been pleased with their service for our heater/air-conditioner.
We would like to thank Rice’s Heating and Cooling for their wonderful service!!
We recently returned from a trip to Sunriver and Sisters. When we walked into our home it was obvious there was an issue with our central AC unit.
I called Rice’s at 9:30pm to leave a message for first thing the next morning. They called us at 8am Tuesday morning to let us know a tech would be out as soon as possible. He arrived just before 11 that morning and discovered the issue right away, replaced the defective part and our AC unit was back up and cooling the house by 11:30!!
We can’t thank them enough for their speedy service!!
My experience with both the office staff (by phone) and onsite tech (at my home location) for Rice Heating has been great. Very professional, courteous, and prompt with their responses and follow-up. I have been using Rice Heating ever since they installed my central air heating and air conditioning system approximately seven years ago. Most of my contacts have been regarding getting my annual service maintenance and inspections done. I did have one repair issue need in the summer of 2023 which was handled promptly on short notice as well.
I continue to be very happy with their ongoing service.
My service was efficient and professional. I highly recommend Rice’s for all your heat pump maintenance needs.
Rice Heating & AC has been servicing my furnace/heat pump needs for many years and I have been very happy with their service and prompt response to any question or concern that I might have. I highly recommend their business.
Rice has provided quick and reliable service for our HVAC system over the years. Their staff are courteous and informative. Recently, their technician Brian provided an excellent service call by checking the whole system and explaining in understandable detail the system operation and resolving the problems we were having. This helped boost our confidence that we are now ready for the winter months ahead.
When the weather turned cold I discovered my furnace would not heat.
Rice Heating came out the same morning I called and the technician was able to diagnose the problem. The Technician called the manufacturer of my furnace right then to get the part ordered.
I had heat within the next two days.
The technician was professional, pleasant and concerned. Since my furnace is older the technician gave it a once over so I could determine if repair was cost effective. He stated my furnace was in good shape except for the faulty part.
The price for repair was very reasonable and I appreciated the quick response.
Rice Heating followed up with a call to make sure everything was working ok.
I would definitely use Rice Heating again.
The annual service we requested was done promptly and properly. Jason, the tech, appeared very competent and polite. He did a great job. We would recommend to our friends.
We have been Rice Heating customers for almost two decades, starting when Calvin Rice replaced an aging gas furnace in our 1900 home in Linn County. Ten years later he replaced a heat pump in our new home in Benton County. Both units work extremely well, without problems, in part because we have always used Rice Heating for yearly maintenance. The technicians from Rice are universally competent, efficient, and pleasant. Plus they arrive on time, every time!
On Friday, Nov. 15th, 2024, a technician from Rice Heating arrived to “winterize” our electric furnace. He was polite, wore booties on his shoes to protect our carpet, and efficiently checked the furnace over. There were no issues and I feel pretty confident the furnace will work as needed. The office personnel are pleasant and efficient and schedule appointments as promptly as they can. I have been using Rice Heating for 12 or more years and keep going back to them so there should be no surprise when I say I can recommend them.
Calvin and the Technicians at Rice Heating and Cooling have been great to work with. I’ve used them for many years on my personal home and the rental properties we own, and I highly recommend their services to our real estate clients on a regular basis!
A visit by your tech representative solved our thermostat questions! Your employee was very professional and knowledgeable and we would recommend [Rice Heating] and give you 5 stars!
