“We are very satisfied with the maintenance Kyler did for our 3 gas fireplaces. They are all different models and ages. (One of them is over 25 years old). Two of them are located in our Airbnb units, and he left everything spotless when he was done. He also showed me how to sync the newest one to the remote when we change the batteries…which I had forgotten how to do.
Excellent service. Thank you!”

“Design air installed one mini split for us this last summer, and it went flawlessly. We had them install another on January 3rd, with Dave and Eastyn doing a great job. This was a different story. The unit had a faulty service valve. They ordered a new valve, but after installation, the unit was *still* faulty, with a bad EEV control board. Liz felt terrible about our user experience, and arm wrestled Bryant to furnish an entirely new unit, which just got installed on the 22nd, and has functioned perfectly. We found Liz to be dedicated to fabulous customer service and excellent user experience. I recommend DesignAir highly and without reservation. They will absolutely take care of you.”

- Paul S.

“From start to finish Design Air took care of us! Liz was amazing to work with to find the right replacement option and financing for us. We were quickly scheduled after this was decided. Eastyn and David were very professional and able to install our new furnace in a days work. Very thankful and appreciative to them all!”

“Had our yearly furnace maintenance and filter change done today by Kyler. He did a fantastic job and was very prompt, polite and thorough. It has always been easy to book an appointment with the front office staff and they text a reminder 24 hours before the appointment.

“Good afternoon, we would like to give Design Air and their staff an updated excellent review of their timely maintenance program on both our air conditioning and furnace systems. They installed our furnace system in 2019 and our cooling system a few years later. Both are operating as per factory specifications, so we are enjoying worry-free cooling and heating. Recently, Kyler was informative on what he inspected and tested, professional, polite, and respected our home by using shoe coverings which we greatly appreciated. He was friendly with our 13-year-old dog and described his own dogs which was very endearing to us. Overall, we appreciate Design Air and give them two thumbs up!”

- Richard and Evy O.

“Design Air has provided maintenance on our heating and air conditioning systems as long as we have had them. They are very professional and knowledgeable in their service.

“My main source of heat was not working during the coldest time this winter.I had two different heating companies try to fix it with no luck. Then I called design Air, they sent their technician Mark out and he fixed it swiftly. The office person Liz was very helpful. Also, I highly recommend Design Air.”

“Tristan, Will, and Casey installed my ductless AC unit very efficiently. They ran into a problem with the coolant line that was out of their control and they worked diligently to fix the issue. They were personable, polite, and courteous of my apartment and I would definitely use them again in the future.”

- Christopher F.

“Tristan and Casey provided a friendly and professional service. Initially I was taken back from finding out the requirements of the system to be three feet from the electrical box and the unit being 18 inches in the air. Casey did a great job in placement of the unit outside our front door that works great. They were very respectful of our house and left it clean.”

- Will W.

“Very professional and easy to work with. Great communication through the whole process. Tristan and Casey were hard at work the whole time during the installation and got it done in a timely manner. They respected the property and took all the steps to make sure they left it as it was inside and out. They used shoe coverings, laid down runners where they were walking and cleaned anything they needed to. They also were very friendly with the dogs too, which was great. Would highly recommend!”

- Darbi A.

“Miles was our installer for an air conditioner unit and replacement furnace. He was professional and easy to have around during the days of installation.

“Miles and Cody arrived promptly to my home; were clean, organized and friendly. They explained what they would be doing, answered all my questions and updated me along the way. Before I knew it, the new gas furnace was installed and running smoothly. I highly recommend these guys to anyone – they are extremely professional. Thanks Design Air!”

- Amy S.

“No one wants to be without heat during the winter, but when that is where I found myself, Design Air helped me out. They brought in space heaters while we waited for the unit to arrive, and then Tristan and Cody installed my replacement furnace with no mess. Tristan even returned the next week to update and expand the duct work to maximize the efficiency of the new unit. I am very happy to have heat and I am excited to have smaller monthly energy bills. The guys were great and knowledgeable and happily explained things each step of the way. Thank you all!”

He was on time with a call ahead and went right to work with a pleasant attitude. He was sure I felt comfortable with the new installation when he was finished.

“The 30 year old furnace at my folks place finally failed and I desperately needed it to be evaluated. I have to drive a long way to get to my folks place and the Design Air team was very accommodating to timeline/schedule. After a thorough review the tech showed me multiple concerns with the old furnace and very clearly explained why the furnace was failing. He gave me multiple options to choose from, and I decided to replace the system. A week later I met the replacement team at my folks place again and I just cannot tell you how impressed I was by the courtesy and professionalism of the team. They lined the entire floor-route from the front door to the furnace with canvas and plastic to ensure they didn’t impact the floor. They were quiet and fast and had the entire old system removed and they new system up and running by just shortly after lunch. What really impressed my was how they kept me informed of their progress throughout the morning; which was unexpected and really comforting. When they left the new furnace was working great and they gave me a great overview of what they did and how the new system would function. AND, when they were finished THE ENTIRE FURNACE ROOM WAS CLEANER THAN WHEN THEY ARRIVED… really impressive effort to go above and beyond my expectations. The team was wonderful and I just can’t say enough about the service and quality.

With respect and tremendous thanks to Griffin, Cody and Tristen.

“Tristan was extremely professional and did an amazing job. He and his coworkers stayed late to finish the job because my house had a few obstacles and they made sure everything was done right. Tristan also took the time to explain everything to me at the end so I know how to operate my new furnace which I really appreciated! Highly recommend!”

“Mike and his team have consistently done a great job with our furnace maintenance. As the cold weather set in our 15 year old furnace needed a major repair and we decided to replace it. Mike was out that afternoon and gave us an estimate, answered our questions and offered some options. The next day we had a new furnace installed and the house was warm again. Nathan, Cody and Griffin were efficient and professional. Design Air provides friendly, reliable service and we will continue to have them serve our HVAC needs in the future.”

“Design Air was amazing to work with!! Our 19 year old furnace system quit working during the middle of a 10-inch snow storm with temperatures below zero. We called Design Air Friday morning and they had a tech come out that same day to look at it. The tech called the office and priced out the repair costs to have a new blower motor installed. Due to the age of the system we decided to also price a complete new heating system. The tech gave us some space heaters to use to get us through the cold snap, which were a life saver! The Home Solutions Advisor came out first thing on Monday morning to take some measurements and review new furnace options. We had an estimate on three new heating systems within an hour and half. We decided on which of the more energy efficient systems we wanted to go with that day. Design Air ordered our new system Monday afternoon, called Tuesday to set up an install time, and did the complete install of the new system on Wednesday! Absolutely amazing turn around and excellent customer service. Every contact we had was positive. Thank you to our team from start to finish!! Brandy, Mark, Doug, Ed, and Griffin you all helped us tremendously and can’t thank you enough for the positive experience!!”

“Mike and Doug were great meeting with us, determining what would work best, and answering our questions. Ed and Griffin were hardworking, non complaining, courteous installers who had to spend many hours in a tight crawl space and in our attic. They were awesome. Tristan was here one day and was friendly and hard working. We would recommend your company without reservation.”

“Tristan and Griffin did a wonderful job installing our new heater once our old as dirt one began failing. They worked fast, finishing up in less than half a day. They were super respectful, professional, and practiced safe social distancing during the COVID-19 pandemic. They went above and beyond when they vacuumed after they were done working and sanitized any surfaces they touched. Five stars!”

– McCall L.

“After having a seasonal evaluation of my heating and AC units by Mark, it was necessary to replace both units due to the age of the units. After consulting with Doug on 4 options, we decided on units that were high efficiency and affordable. Tristen and Ed performed the install. They are two of the most professional and hard-working workers I’ve had the pleasure to hire. They were extremely knowledgeable and explained everything thoroughly. They were prompt both days and cleaned up after each work day. The entire team at Design Air, Inc.-Brandy, Mark, Doug, Tristen and Ed are exceptional. I would highly recommend these folks and will continue to call upon them for any future issues!!! Thanks for all your hard work!!!”

“Installation done well and carefully checked. Knowledgable and careful workers. My air conditioner works well and quieter, and cool air is now flowing evenly throughout the house.

“We asked Design Air Inc to provide a proposal for our large 5-bedroom home in Missoula. An appointment to look at the house was set up immediately. Mike & Doug came out to inspect the house and do their research in order to match the right AC unit to the overall design, square footage, etc. The dollar figure was far more reasonable than I had expected. I agreed, all parts were ordered straight away and the project started within a couple days.

Installing a new AC unit is a big job and involves a lot of work and planning. It took Tristan Alexander and Griffin Pluth only 2 days to get it all done. We were impressed! These 2 young guys really knew their stuff. Furthermore, they were super friendly, respectful, wore their COVID-19 masks at all times, and explained every step of the way what they were doing. All we had to do was get out of their way and hang on! I hope they are both promoted soon, as they should be. I asked for a new thermostat; it was installed properly and configured exactly the way we wanted it; all options were presented and explained thoroughly.

We now have a great AC unit, and it works perfectly. Design Air, Inc., was fast, efficient, very reasonable in price, and they have the right people working for them, to include office personnel and people working in the field. All of them, extremely professional and friendly; and I like that. In my mind, this company is tops all around and cannot be beat!”

“I was having issues with my a/c unit. I called Design Air and they sent someone out the next day! My old a/c unit was not able to be repaired in a sustainable fashion. So Doug and Mike gave a very reasonable quote for a new unit. Tristan and Ed installed my new Air Conditioner in less than 4 hours. They were both extremely efficient and knowledgeable. Two of the hardest workers I have seen in action! I am really happy with my new A/C it works like a dream! Thank you all!”

“We want to thank Mark and Brandy. We had an odor/gas leak after the installation of our new Bryant furnace. Brandy showed great concern in addressing this issue immediately and getting out to us.

“Very friendly and nice.
Outstanding customer service and quality of work.

Our old furnace had died completely so we had them come out for a bid.
I was very impressed with their thoroughness in making sure I understood the different options for the new furnace and the work that would be involved for each type.

We got multiple bids, and theirs was very competitive so we went ahead and had them order us a furnace.

They came out for the install, right on time, and did great work.
The house and the work area were completely clean when they finished.

From there, they testing everything, took care of scheduling the inspection, and covered all the final paperwork with me.

Overall, we are ecstatic about our experience with Design Air and with our new furnace. I highly recommend them!”

“We had contacted several companies for bids. A couple came back saying it will be this much or that much, then once we get in there we may have to add this cost on, plus the electrician cost, but Design airs bid came in under the others with everything included.

“Design Air Inc. in Missoula, MT is an honest and professional company.
When our residential 27-year-old gas furnace stopped working during a below freezing 2019 winter night, Mike and his team helped us by installing a new gas furnace in two and a half days. The first day they troubleshot, loaned us space heaters to get us by, then advised us on the options, arranged for the new appropriately sized furnace to be delivered asap from Spokane, WA. Near noon on the third day the new gas furnace was operating and heating our home. We would highly recommend Design Air Inc, Missoula because the furnace installation was well planned, organized with excellent workmanship, and follow-up service. The cost of replacement parts and labor is rising everywhere. You pay for, for what your get. Design Air Inc, Missoula has been accredited by the Better Business Bureau since 9/1/ 2005, so they must be doing something right!”

“The guys at Design Air did an excellent job replacing our ancient furnace and upgrading our home with a central air system. The owner Mike, was nice and informative when he came both to do our estimate and after when he came to give us our final paperwork. The guys that came to install our system were very friendly, befriended our dog, were also very knowledgeable with any questions I had, and they made sure to put stuff in place to keep the floor and surrounding area’s clean, as well as cleaned up any mess they may have made. The lead tech also made sure that I was asked on any decisions before things were placed (new thermostat, new lines that needed ran etc.) I would highly recommend Design Air and the crew for any heating or air conditioning needs!!!”
