We know you’ve seen them before; we have too! That’s right, a family of penguins traveling around St. Louis. No I’m not talking about penguins crossing the street or the penguins at the St. Louis Zoo; I’m talking about the Classic Aire Care vans!
Classic Aire Care’s van with the family of penguins is easily one of the most recognizable vehicles in St. Louis. With over 60 vans and trucks on all of St. Louis’ highways, the brightly colored orange and yellow vehicles are hard to miss. From all angles, our penguins are displayed proudly.
In addition to the penguins, our vans display the names of our legacy companies. Our family of companies include Ryan Heating, Donahue Heating and Air Conditioning, Schneider Services and South County Heating and Air Conditioning, now all part of the Classic Aire Care family. The orange and yellow as well as the penguin family are important to show our customers that our company operates under one umbrella and one management team.
Other than just being a cute mother penguin and her two babies, this penguin family is one of the first things any other driver sees and speaks volumes as to what Classic Aire Care is all about; family.
Just like the family of penguins, Classic Aire Care is a locally owned, family owned company. We choose to operate our business under the values in which we feel any family should operate; with trust, honesty, respect and communication. As a Classic Aire Care customer, we hope you’ll feel like a part of our family as well.
In addition to family, the Classic Aire Care penguins represent the level of service we hope to give every one of our customers. Most of the 17 penguin species thrive in cool climates. Although some are comfortable in temperatures warmer than Antarctica, all penguins rely on certain conditions to keep them comfortable. Just like penguins, we are most comfortable when our home’s temperatures and conditions are just right. Making sure your home remains comfortable is exactly our job!
Over the years, Classic Aire Care has asked our customers “How did you hear about us?” A surprising number of people see the Classic Aire Care penguin trucks and decide to call us for all their furnace, air conditioning and plumbing needs. Once they try us, they see why there are so many Classic Aire Care vans on the road. In the drivers’ seat of every van is a top-notch service technician, HVAC installer, plumber, drain technician or indoor air quality specialist that is on their way to make someone else more comfortable. We hope as a Classic Aire Care customer, seeing the penguin trucks and vans on the road brings you comfort and peace of mind that no matter what time of day, a Classic Aire Care service technician is in your area and just a phone call away. Now, we have to ask, how did YOU hear about us?
I’m really Disappointed in about this organization. There was a simple fix that I did myself. The New $15,000 Thousand installed units have collected a lot of Dirt on Condensers and can’t get any service until September. Got my Money and now this.

I’ve had Classic Aire put in a 3rd floor unit years ago and they did a fantastic job with a high quality unit. So they had a good reputation walking in. Yesterday John really helped us out with a small disaster we had in the basement with our 29+ year old AC. John diagnosed and resolved the problem quickly and economically. He then took great care in explaining how to prevent again. We were so impressed we set up a bi annual service contract. Couldn’t get a good picture inside so took one outside:

Wow! Already being at a loss, as the brand new $30k hvac system we had installed last year is not working properly, this experience with Classic Aire Care is insult to injury.
To clarify, Classic Aire was not the original contractor who installed the system. I called them to be a respected third party set of eyes, and possibly hire them to be our routine maintenance solution moving forward, as I am losing trust with the original contractor.
Patrick showed up on time but hammered on our door like he was the Police. He seemed either agitated or angry from the get. After several curt impersonal exchanges and about 2 hours of trouble shooting . He summoned me upstairs to frantically tell me they would be waving the $300 (I was quoted closer to $100 on the phone) fee to evaluate our system, and refusing any work on it. He seemed to have identified a specific issue and explained it to me in layman’s terms as best he could and told me it would be in his report. He then left in a hurry. Before I received a detailed report I got a form text to be sure and leave Patrick a 5 star review, I’d leave zero stars if I could. We did end up getting a report but the only thing on it were two useless photos and a one sentence description of the “problem”. It is surprising at the level of unprofessional conduct on display from this technician and his manager. I am a maintenance lead managing 5 large facilities that uses Classic Aire Care at all our sites. I am beginning to question that relationship.

Vince with Classic Aire Care provided exceptional same day service when I called about water leaking from my HVAC system. He arrived on time and was very professional and knowledgeable about his work. He quickly diagnosed the problem, explained the cause of the leak and efficiently completed the repair. He even added a hose clamp to prevent future leaks.
I was impressed with Vince's attention to detail and commitment to doing the job right. He answered all of my questions, and made sure everything was running properly before he left. It’s clear that he takes pride in his work and genuinely cares about providing excellent customer service. He didn’t even seem to mind my crazy dogs barking at him 90% of the time!
It was refreshing to work with someone who is not only skilled but also genuinely cares about his work and customer satisfaction. Thanks to Vince, my system is running properly again, and no more wet basement floor! I highly recommend Vince and will definitely request him again in the future!!
