Dan Franklin Collins

Collins Air 1 runs as an HVAC outfit based in Farmers Branch and covers the full Fort Worth area along with the rest of the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. Otis Collins leads the crew and brings more than thirty years of hands-on work to every call. The company keeps regular hours Monday through Saturday from seven in the morning until seven at night and stays available around the clock when systems break down without warning. Homeowners and business owners alike call them for both new installs and fixes on existing units. They keep a strict rule against pushing equipment that is not truly needed, a point that shows up again and again in feedback from people who have used them for years.

The crew handles full installations, repairs on heating and cooling equipment, and scheduled maintenance for both houses and commercial buildings. They show up the same day when a unit quits during a heat wave or any other emergency. Otis and the technicians fix refrigerant leaks, recalibrate thermostats, and swap filters on the spot. They also offer financing plans that let owners spread out the cost of bigger jobs. Customers note that the team explains what is wrong in plain terms, shows up when promised, and leaves the system running right without extra charges for parts that were not required.

Homeowners keep coming back because the work stays honest, the pricing stays clear, and the response time stays fast even on the hottest days. Reviewers mention the crew arriving quickly, avoiding any upsell pressure, and making sure the fix lasts through the season. That steady record of showing up, doing the job right, and charging a fair rate adds up across hundreds of jobs. DIRT Score 5.0 from 433 reviews on Finds.

“Dr. Franklin is a breath of fresh air. He cares about his patients. He ordered a CT scan for me. He personally called me after hours to give me the results, since he knew that I was worried about it. Most other doctors would not think about doing that these days. He is the best.”

“Dr. Franklin has been beyond excellent as both a surgeon, physician and counselor. With his many years of experience and knowledge about cochlear implants, he has given me valuable advice as far as deciding to do the surgery. He saved my husband’s life in 2002 when he assisted in removing a large tumor from his middle ear that was wrapped around his brain stem. My only regret is that he is retiring December 31st. Ten stars Dr Franklin for the excellence of a brilliant career.”

“Dr Dan Franklin has been my ENT doctor for nearly 30 years. The best of the best! Thank you Dr. Franklin for helping me throughout all these years!”

“Dr. Franklin was ('was' because he's retiring end of 2025) a one of a kind! He truly cared. Doctored both my boys when they were babies with ear tubes. Continued to see my younger son, on a regular basis, into his 20's as he is special needs. Not sure he knows how much he will be missed. All his patients will be hard-pressed to find another like him.”

“Dr. Franklin is the best! Listens to your concerns and keeps you informed of what he finds during the visit and suggests an appropriate course of action. Great doctor and always a caring individual!”
