Swampscott Refrigeration is a Lynn heating and cooling company that says it is family-owned and was established in 1951 by Charles V. Carone. It holds 4.2 stars from 25 Google ratings. Its Massachusetts HVAC licence is active. On r/SalemMA, commenters have recommended it since 2023; one in June 2025 called it cheaper than a competitor, and another said in March 2026 that it had been great that winter. Google reviewers describe tune-ups, AC service and installs: a December 2023 customer had two Carrier AC condensers and air handlers installed, an August 2025 customer said a technician arrived within 30 minutes of the call, and January 2026 customers credited Tony and Jake with fixing a heating system. A July 2023 reviewer said they had used the company for more than 20 years. Three customers writing on July 14, 2025 described a tune-up special followed within about a week by new problems: one said a drain pump failed and overflowed, damaging carpet, and that the company denied there had been an issue; another said they paid $200, the AC quit, and the owner hung up on them. A November 2025 customer with an old furnace said they were charged $750 for a control board part that cost $197, that some wires were tucked away unconnected, and that it broke again a week later. A June 2026 customer said the office ignored their stated 9-to-1 window, a technician called at 5 p.m. the day before, and they had to call in themselves to learn whether anyone was coming.
“Swampscott Refrigeration has been great this past winter.”
“Switched from Bartlett and steadman, who on top of their bad headlines, also just could not accomplish anything with the heat pump at my house. Swampscott has been great to me.”

“Swampscott Refrigeration. I can't say enough good things about them.”
I am very thankful for the professionalism of the two techs who serviced my hvac issue. In the end, I needed a new thermostat which they installed on the same day as their visit. Two weeks without air conditioning and had another company telling me I needed a whole new unit with a quote over 20 thousand dollars. So grateful that Swampscott Refrigeration values honesty and integrity as well as an incredibly affordable fee.
Didn’t actually have them do any work but the scheduling process was already a mess. Called to book appointment for the next day and I specifically told the office my availability is 9-1 then. Got a phone call the day before at 5PM and the technician was asking if I communicated that I’m only available next day and told me “Oh but I’m only 5 minutes away” while I’m at work. I told the technician again that I’m only available from 9-1 on the second day. Did not get any contact about if they cannot make it during that time on the 2nd day and I had to call in to check, the office just simply said you’re still on the calendar and we’ll give you a call when the technician is available with no apologies or whatsoever People have work and other things in life. Improve your scheduling system.
Outstanding! John was very knowledgeable about my HVAC system and repair repairs were upfront and reasonable. Definitely recommend!
Great first time visit from Swampscott Refrigeration, our technician Jack explained everything to me and cleaned out the outside unit and inspected the inside, ran the air, checked our filter, very professional and gave me some great tips! Will be using them as my yearly maintenance, highly recommend!
Excellent and prompt service. Special thanks to Tony for his professionalism and expertise.
