## The honest read

Admiral Climate Control is a Rochester heating and cooling company. Its website lists residential and commercial heating and cooling equipment installation and 24/7 emergency service, and names Portsmouth, Dover, Rochester, Wolfeboro, Kittery and York as its service area. Its New Hampshire HVAC licence, number MBE1000426, held by Admiral Climate Control, LLC, is active on the state registry. It holds an A+ grade with the Better Business Bureau and 4.5 stars from 50 Google ratings.

A 2026 customer said they lost heat on a 7-degree morning, the company was onsite within about 2 hours, and the heat was running again in about a half hour. A 2025 customer said a new furnace went in, and when it blew cold air Pat came out, fixed the problem and installed a digital thermostat. A 2024 customer said Admiral converted their heating system from oil to propane and had the estimate ready the same day. A 2023 customer said Bobby repaired a grandmother's heater for about half the low end of the $500-$800 they expected to spend elsewhere.

A 2023 customer said Andy and Arthur installed Fujitsu mini-splits with 4 heads and one compressor, kept the floor clean and spent some time giving them training. A 2022 customer said four more mini-split units went in upstairs in a three-story house within a day and a half.

A recent customer said a visit to diagnose a multi-zone A/C system cost over $500, a second opinion found a loose wire rather than the nearly $800 zone controller they were quoted, and a promised refund never came. A 2025 customer said the company refused to fix leaks in a Fujitsu mini-split system installed in December 2020, and that another company found over 4 leaks and fixing it cost over $2600. A 2023 customer said they were charged $109 when Steve, the owner, came back out to re-quote a heating and cooling unit after first quoting only for AC.

**Strengths:**
- Fast no-heat call — a 2026 customer had a tech onsite within about 2 hours
- Oil-to-propane conversion — a 2024 customer got a same-day estimate
- A mini-split install — a 2023 customer said the floor was kept clean

**Concerns:**
- A/C diagnosis charge — a recent customer paid over $500 for a wrong diagnosis
- Unrepaired leaks — a 2025 customer said mini-split leaks went unfixed
- Re-quote fee — a 2023 customer was charged $109 for a second quote

**Where sources disagree:**
- The state registry shows licence MBE1000426 active, while BuildZoom lists it inactive and at one point cancelled.
