“It is a San Jose company, BBB accredited with an A+ since 1962 with only 2 complaints in 3 years, holds an active discipline-free C-20 license (#258540) with current workers' comp, and has a dedicated furnace repair page plus a 24/7 answering service.”
“It is a San Jose company whose furnace repair page promises same-day visits for most calls placed before noon on weekdays, with an active discipline-free C-20 license (#1048009) and a BBB A+ with 1 complaint and 8 reviews averaging 4.13/5.”
“It is a family-owned San Jose company since 1957, BBB accredited with an A+ since 1972 with 1 complaint in 3 years, with an active discipline-free C-20 license (#768871) and furnace repair and emergency heating pages that mention frequent same-day service.”
“It has a clean license and a BBB A+ with 0 complaints since 1952, but it has no specific furnace repair page and makes no same-day or emergency claim.”
“It advertises 24/7 same-day furnace repair, but its license dates only from November 2024 and no BBB profile could be found to check complaints.”
“Its license is active, but it is not BBB accredited, its 2 BBB reviews average 2/5, and its founding year differs between BBB and its site.”
“It is in Campbell rather than San Jose, its heating page covers products and maintenance rather than repair, and no BBB profile was found.”
“CSLB shows license #764087 suspended for workers' comp noncompliance, with its policy cancelled 06/15/2026.”
“Its heating repair page failed to load, so no license, BBB, or service facts could be checked.”
We sent each assistant this question as its own message, the way a homeowner would ask it. It searched the web and read business sites on its own. Each answer shows which assistant and version answered and when. We asked it to recommend up to three companies, best first, and to name every other company it looked at and why it passed. Reasons are quoted as given. Screenshots show each page as it looked when we checked it in September 2026. We ask again every month and keep every answer.
