Pleva Ac & Heat

Pleva AC & Heat operates out of San Antonio, Texas as a veteran owned HVAC outfit that handles air conditioning and heating work for homes and businesses around the area. The company started in 2017 after the owner spent more than twenty years in residential, commercial and industrial HVAC roles and grew tired of seeing customer service slide at bigger outfits. They keep a crew of factory trained technicians on call around the clock for emergency calls and routine jobs alike, focusing on straightforward repairs and installs that keep systems running through the hot Texas summers and occasional cold snaps.

Technicians like Tom handle everything from full air conditioning replacements and furnace tune ups to quick fixes on units that stop cooling properly. In one case Tom showed up at a house within an hour, walked the homeowner through the exact problems without pushing extra parts, and skipped any charge for the trip or the diagnosis itself. Another job involved a straightforward repair on a furnace that had been acting up, where he explained the issue in plain terms, stuck to what actually needed fixing, and left the system working without adding on services that were not required. Homeowners mention the same pattern across AC tune ups and heating repairs where the crew shows up on schedule and finishes without dragging things out.

Customers keep coming back because the work stays honest and the communication stays clear every time. Reviews highlight how Tom and the rest of the crew arrive when they say they will, lay out options without pressure, and charge only for what gets done instead of padding the bill. That mix of quick response, solid fixes, and fair pricing shows up again and again across the feedback. DIRT Score 5.0 from 166 reviews on Finds.

“There are not many companies like the veteran owned PLEVA AC & Heat. Tom was straight forward, honest, fair and very respectful. I felt comfortable doing buisness with him almost immediately just by how he carried himself. Tom did not charge for the trip to my house or the diagnoses. He explained alot to me that as a first time home owner I did not know about with my ac unit. If Tom doesnt find anythig wrong there is no charge. I highly recommend PLEVA AC & Heat for all your AC and heating needs. I will be using them from here on out for any future work I need done. Semper Fi Tom!”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We’ve been using Tom Pleva for years for both our air conditioning and furnace tune-ups and repairs, and he has always been a pleasure to work with. He’s dependable, shows up when he says he will, and takes the time to explain things in a way that actually makes sense. I especially appreciate all the practical advice he’s given us over the years on how to keep our system running well and avoid unnecessary problems. His prices have always been very reasonable, and I’ve never felt pressured into repairs we didn’t need. Finding someone trustworthy in this industry is such a relief. We’re very happy customers and will absolutely continue using Pleva AC & Heat in the future.”

“Just wanted to give a huge shoutout to Pleva AC & Heat. Thank you, Tom and company for outstanding service. Tom came to my house within an hour. Then walked me through the issues. His recommendation focused on what needed to be done instead of trying to sell me anything extra. It was refreshing to deal with a true professional who takes pride in doing ethical, honest work. If you want someone who responds fast, knows what they’re doing, and treats you right, I highly recommend Pleva AC & Heat. Tom really came through for me.”

“As a retired military veteran myself, Tom Pleva embodies military core values of integrity, service before self, and excellence in all he does. My new high efficiency HVAC system was installed highly professionally and promptly after my old unit failed. All Pleva employees from the office manager to the youngest technician were very personable and highly proficient. This company combines outstanding customer service with excellent value and is the best I’ve ever seen!”
