Joshua's customers describe getting cooling back during heat waves and getting more heat from older systems. Year Round Heating and Cooling advertises boiler, furnace and air-conditioning installation and service, with ductless heat pumps as a stated specialty. Its website lists western Massachusetts towns including Amherst, Hadley, Northampton, Holyoke, Chicopee and Springfield. In a June 2025 Google review, a customer said Joshua came out the same day during a Massachusetts heat wave after other companies declined new clients or quoted waits of several weeks. The customer said he resolved the air-conditioning problem and charged a fair price. A separate June 2025 Angi customer with an older central-air system praised his quick response, willingness to accommodate their availability and answers to their questions. Google reports a 4.8-star average from 73 ratings; Angi reports 4.8 from 61, with 97% five-star and 3% one-star ratings. The older accounts describe specific repairs and maintenance. A September 2022 Angi customer said Joshua replied within an hour about a poorly performing mini-split and visited within a week. Cleaning restored the airflow, according to that customer. In a June 2021 Angi review, another customer described a next-day visit during a heat wave and said adding refrigerant restored their mini-split's cooling. A Google customer writing in April 2020 said Josh had installed their mini-split system in 2018. Heating customers described similar work. A January 2022 Angi reviewer said Joshua found and replaced a failed part after their oil company had attributed years of inadequate heat to system design. A February 2019 Google reviewer said adjustments to a steam-heating system got a sunroom radiator working well again. A December 2023 Google customer praised his steam-furnace maintenance and called the price reasonable. Customers also described explanations during visits. In a September 2020 Google review, one said Sarah arranged an appointment around their schedule, Joshua arrived within the promised two-hour window, and he explained the system throughout a two-hour maintenance call. A May 2022 Angi reviewer said Joshua answered both their questions and their wife's. In a May 2024 Holyoke Reddit discussion, a commenter recommended Year Round Heating and Cooling as a locally owned business.

Joshua is a hero. Random heatwave across MA and naturally the A/C just stops working. Called a number of places only to be told no one is taking clients or they're booked out 3-4 weeks ahead. YRHC came through for me though. Came out same day even though he was unscheduled. Sorted the issue and was very polite and thorough. Solid people, solid work and fair prices. Not sure what more you need. I fully recommend.
We had a problem with our central air conditioning system. In deciding who to call, I was so grateful that Joshua was referred to me from a previous satisfied customer. He responded quickly, accommodated our availability, and did an outstanding job. Price was very reasonable and didn't mind answering all our questions. Our central air is quite old, and I will not hesitate to have him put in a new system when the time comes.
I appreciate Joshua coming out to my home for maintenance of the steam furnace. He was punctual and offered great advice on several things. Very helpful and professional. His price was reasonable and I will follow up on annual maintenance with this business. Highly recommend.
Joshua was very helpful. Awesome!
Joshua responded immediately. After communicating some details, he quickly scheduled a time to come over to confirm the items to be repaired. I received a fair and reasonable quote. The part was ordered and the repair was scheduled quickly. Joshua was courteous, attentive and professional throughout the whole process. A painless, yet thorough process! Thank you for the exceptional experience - I appreciate you.
