Family-Operated HVAC & Water Heater Specialists Serving the Central Valley Since 1982

Since opening our doors in 1982, Rare Service Heating and Air Conditioning has delivered honest, dependable home comfort services to families across Fresno and the Central Valley. For over 42 years, our business has operated on a simple, old-school principle: Do the right thing because it’s the right thing to do. We’re proud to stand out as a premier family-managed HVAC company in a field crowded by corporate sales firms.

When you work with Rare Service, you’re choosing a team that treats your household like family. We take the time to know your needs, listen to your concerns and provide clear, educated recommendations rather than pushy sales pitches. We’re not going to sell you something just because. Every technician on our team is cross-trained across all verticals, certified on top industry equipment and committed to holding our work to a higher standard. Whether you need a quick system repair, an energy-efficient upgrade or routine maintenance, you can trust Rare Service to put your home first.

Dependable Air Conditioning Repair & Replacement

Summers in the Central Valley are notoriously intense, bringing relentless heatwaves that put continuous strain on your cooling equipment. When your air conditioner fails in the middle of July, you need prompt, reliable service to restore safety and comfort to your home. Our team provides fast, accurate diagnostics and repairs for all major cooling system setups, addressing everything from electrical issues and frozen coils to failing fan motors.

When it comes time to replace an aging AC unit, we guide you through high-efficiency options tailored specifically to your home’s layout and cooling needs. As certified installers for leading brands, we handle every air conditioning installation with meticulous care. We also handle and register manufacturer equipment warranties on your behalf and back new installations with our 1-year conditional labor warranty, giving you complete confidence in your long-term investment.

Complete Residential & Commercial Heating Solutions

Central Valley winters bring damp chill, dense Tule fog and rapid temperature shifts that require a dependable heating system. Our cross-trained technicians deliver comprehensive residential and commercial heating services across gas furnaces, electric heat pumps, ductless mini-splits and packaged rooftop systems. If your heater stops blowing warm air or starts making unusual mechanical noises, our team responds quickly with straightforward troubleshooting and on-call emergency service.

For homeowners considering an equipment upgrade, we offer honest guidance on choosing between traditional furnace installations and modern electric heat pumps. We carefully calculate system sizing and airflow to ensure consistent warmth without driving up winter utility bills. Furthermore, our light commercial HVAC services keep local offices, retail locations and commercial buildings warm, efficient and fully compliant throughout the colder months.

Indoor Air Quality & Home Ventilation Upgrades

The air inside your home impacts your family’s daily health, comfort and wellbeing. Dust, agricultural pollen, wildfire smoke and seasonal allergens frequently settle in the Central Valley, leading to stale air and increased respiratory irritation indoors. Rare Service offers advanced indoor air quality tests and custom equipment installations designed to clean, purify and balance the air you breathe every day.

We install top-rated indoor air quality equipment, including APCO UV purifiers, Fresh-Aire UV systems, Honeywell filtration units and iWave bi-polar ionization technology to neutralize airborne contaminants and allergens. To help regulate attic heat and lower summer cooling demand, we also offer whole-house fan and attic fan repairs and installations. If your home experiences uneven heating and cooling, our technicians perform duct repairs to seal leaks, restore proper airflow and keep your HVAC system running smoothly.

Tank, Tankless & Electric Water Heater Care

A steady supply of reliable hot water is essential for every household. Beyond our core heating and cooling solutions, Rare Service provides expert water heater repairs and replacements for traditional gas and electric tank units, as well as modern tankless hot water systems. Whether your current water heater is leaking, producing lukewarm water or making loud mineral buildup noises, our team quickly isolates the issue.

If your system is beyond repair, we walk you through the benefits of upgrading to an energy-efficient tankless setup or a high-capacity traditional unit. Every water heater installation is completed to exact safety standards, ensuring seamless connections and dependable hot water performance for years to come.
