What We Stand For
Customer Service
You're a neighbor, not a ticket number. We communicate clearly, show up when we say we will, and treat your home with respect.
Quality Workmanship
Licensed, code-compliant work done right the first time — from precise installs to lasting repairs we stand behind.
Your Comfort
Every recommendation is about keeping your home comfortable and efficient, not padding an invoice.
Built the Old-Fashioned Way — One Honest Job at a Time
P&Y Heating and Cooling didn't start with a marketing budget or a call center. It started with a simple idea: treat every Montgomery County home like it belongs to a neighbor, because more often than not, it does. For over a decade, we've grown the way a family business should — through referrals, repeat customers, and the 112+ reviews of homeowners who were told the truth about their system and trusted us with the next one.
That reputation is built on the small moments most companies skip: showing a homeowner the failed part instead of just billing for it, quoting the repair a competitor turned into a full-system replacement, answering the phone at 2 a.m. when the heat quits in a freeze. We're a small, family-owned company on purpose — it's what lets us keep the same licensed technicians on every call and stay personally accountable for the work.
Led by master technician Pedro Alcantara, our priorities have never changed since day one: customer service, quality, and your comfort. Whether it's a routine tune-up in Gaithersburg or a full high-efficiency system for a home in Potomac, you get the same care, the same honesty, and the same standard of work.
What You Can Expect From Us
Every job, big or small, is held to the same standard — the one that earned our reputation across Montgomery County.
A real diagnosis, first
We test the actual cause of the problem before recommending parts, so you never pay for guess-and-replace work. If the fix is simple, we'll tell you honestly.
Written pricing before we start
You get a clear written scope and price up front, and you approve it before any work begins. No surprises when the invoice arrives.
Honest repair-or-replace advice
We give you the real numbers on fixing versus replacing and let you decide. We never scare a repair customer into a new system.
Licensed, permitted, to code
Every installation is done to code under MD HVAC Master License #96254, with Montgomery County permits and inspections handled for you.
Respect for your home
We show up when we say we will, keep the work area clean, and leave your home the way we found it — a detail our reviews mention again and again.

What Our Neighbors Say
P&Y (Pedro) and his crew were absolutely outstanding. My unit was about 20 years old and giving problems. He was very responsive and made an appointment the same day. He not only told me the issue but gave me options — a repair price and a price on a new unit — even knowing the unit was 20 years old. Other companies just told me to change the unit. His crew spent almost 7 hours and tested it so it worked perfectly. Reasonable and great pricing than these big box companies.

AC Installation
Great service and very honest. My parents had an HVAC issue where they called two different companies and both said to replace the whole unit. We decided to go for a 3rd opinion and contacted P&Y. It turned out to be a simple fix.

AC Repair
Pedro found and repaired the problem with our AC that others had missed. He was prompt, professional and very pleasant to deal with. Very important to us was that the cost was reasonable AND that he concentrated on fixing the AC instead of trying to sell us a new one. I strongly recommend him.

AC Repair
Absolutely outstanding service. Our heat went out during extremely cold weather with 30+ mph winds in the DC/Maryland area, and this company came through when it mattered most. Pedro came out on a Saturday night around 8 PM, after finishing another job in Virginia, and still took the time to get our heat back up and running. That level of dedication is rare.

Emergency Heating Repair
10/10 recommend! As new homeowners, we truly appreciated how professional, knowledgeable, and patient the entire team was. They clearly explained the work and taught us how to properly use and maintain our new HVAC system. When we later had an issue with the ducts, they kindly returned, identified the problem, and saved us a significant amount of money.

Heating System Installation
I contracted with P&Y to replace my HVAC system — furnace, evaporator and condenser/compressor unit. They were on time, clean and professional. Price and warranty were the best I found; 5 previous estimates were significantly higher. I highly recommend P&Y!
