"Very satisfied with having an honest man come out and give my husband and I an honest opinion on our new home. Being new homeowners we really rely on the expertise of honest people in their industry. We had an easy time contacting Caleb to come out. We are very thankful that we have our AC working and running properly for these hot days."

"Fast, friendly, and fair! I called in the morning about my broken AC, and Caleb was at my house just a couple of hours later. He had it up and running in no time. Great service, very reasonable prices, and Caleb was fantastic to work with. I highly recommend Lake State Heating and Air!"

"Caleb was the ONLY person who could come in the evening, even though most said 24/7. He was efficient. Easy to work with! Grateful he came."

"Caleb quickly diagnosed the problem with my AC and fixed it. Highly recommend"

"Caleb did an amazin job on my furnace and gave some great advice on my ac"

"Our air conditioner finally gave out, which wasn't a total surprise given that it was from 1981! We called Caleb Ellingson at Lake State Heating and Air, and he came out the same day to assess the situation and give us an estimate for the replacement of both the air conditioner and our 1990's furnace. We collected bids from two other companies, but chose Caleb because his bid was the most reasonably priced and had the best (BY FAR) warranty on parts and labor. On installation day, Caleb arrived right on time. His work was neat, clean, and professional. By the end of the day, he had the new equipment up and running and cooling our home (so happy to have air conditioning again in this hot weather!). Caleb answered all of our questions and was great to deal with during the entire process. I'd highly recommend him to anyone with heating or air conditioning needs!"

"Caleb is great. Prompt service. Very professional."

"Great service!! Thank you!"

"Called Lake State Heating and Air after our A/C would not cool. Caleb was able to fit us in very quickly and had the air conditioner up and running in no time. He was very easy to work with and had very fair pricing compared to other places we called. Will certainly call them again if we ever have any HVAC needs. Nice to have someone you can trust that wont take advantage of people in need."

He was prompt, professional and didn’t shy away from digging deeper into what could be wrong with our mini split system. (The system was running within an hour). Thankful for Lake State Heating & AC, don’t hesitate to contact them for help."

"We had Lake State out just in time before the extreme heat this week! So easy to work with, fair pricing and now everything is working much better. We’ve recommended Lake State many times and will continue to!"

"Lake State installed a mini split in my garage and they were super great to work with. Professional and affordable. Would recommend to anyone."

"Caleb truely understands customer service. He did both design and instalation for all of our HVAC needs. So hard to find a contractor that says what he's going to do and then does it. On top of it all, very fair pricing."

"I cannot say enough good things about Lake State Heating & Air. We had a major A/C issue at our resort and needed help immediately. They responded incredibly fast and had the problem diagnosed and resolved quickly. Professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely committed to helping their customers. When you're running a business, that kind of reliability is priceless. They absolutely saved the day for us, and I won't be calling anyone else for our heating and cooling needs. Highly, highly recommend!"

"Caleb saved the day!! My A/C quit last night and been suffering in the heat!! He came out on short notice late today and got my A/C back up in running!! Very professional!! I recommend him 100%!! Call him if you have any problems!!"

"Calab came out on a Friday to give me a estimate on a new AC unit and by Wednesday evening everything was up and running! He showed up on time and finished when he said he would. Instalation looks awesome and new unit works perfectly! Highly recommend."

"Highly recommend! For both personal needs and business referrals, they are always my go-to. Their communication is great, response times are quick, and they are extremely professional. Honest, trustworthy, and never salesy or pushy. It was refreshing to work with a company that genuinely puts the customer first."

"We have been working with Lake State Heating and Air Conditioning throughout our home remodel, and we could not be more impressed. Caleb has been professional and courteous from start to finish, making the whole process seamless. What really stood out was when we had some last minute HVAC work come up on a house we were selling. Caleb went out of his way to fit us into what we know was an already tight schedule, and he came through without missing a beat. That kind of flexibility and commitment to a customer is rare and truly appreciated. If you are looking for a heating and air conditioning company that does quality work and actually goes the extra mile, Lake State is the one to call. We will not hesitate to use them again."

"I had a number of issues I wanted addressed and quotes for any future work I may possibly need and or want. Caleb was quick to respond to my concerns. Showed up did all the work I requested and explained anything I had questions about."

"I just had a unit installed. I wanted AC installed my new garage/ man cave. I wasn't sure what I wanted but now believe Lake State got me exactly the right unit, in a good time frame, at a fair price."

"The day before the blizzard my furnace began to leak. I called the company that installed the furnace six years ago. They came out and I was told that it was not under warranty and would cost about $6,000 to repair and was told to think about getting a new furnace. I then contacted Caleb Ellingson at Lake State. He was able to confirm that the part needed was, in fact, covered by warranty and therefore the cost to repair was minor. Caleb is knowledgeable, courteous and has all those traits you hope to find in someone in this business. I strongly recommend him for all of your heating and air conditioning needs. I know I don't intend to ever use anyone other than Caleb for my heating and air conditioning needs. He's the best!"

"I highly recommend Lake State Heating & Air. They installed our entire system—furnace, A/C, and ductwork—this past summer on our new home build, and we haven't had a single issue. It’s been a total relief having a reliable system during our first winter. Caleb is wonderful to work with and even helped explain systems we’d be looking into at the start of our home build. Thank you again for making the drive to Duluth and working above and beyond to get the job done in a timely fashion!"

"Huge thank you to Caleb Ellingson and Matt Martin for all of their hard work and expertise. This past Summer Lake State Heating & Air came up to install our furnace, A/C, ductwork, and garage furnace. Everything was installed right the first time and ran flawless our first winter in.
