For nearly six decades, Accurate Air has been a trusted name in the Tempe community, providing high-quality HVAC services to residents and businesses alike. This family-run company, established in 1965, has built its reputation on reliability, customer service, and a commitment to excellence.
From Humble Beginnings
Jim and Donna Wood, the founders of Accurate Air, weren’t originally from Tempe. The couple moved to the area in the early 1960s, drawn by the promise of opportunity and the chance to raise their family in the growing Arizona community. Tempe’s warm climate and vibrant neighborhoods made it the perfect place for them to settle down and build a business rooted in service and integrity. In the beginning, Donna worked from home answering the phones while Jim pulled calls and worked three jobs until Accurate grew its customer base. There were times that Donna would go on service calls with Jim just so they could be together while Jim worked many long hours. It didn’t take long for that growth to happen.

Accurate Air specializes in a wide range of HVAC services, including installation, repair, and maintenance of heating and cooling systems. Whether it’s ensuring your air conditioning runs efficiently during scorching summers or keeping your home warm on chilly desert nights, Accurate Air has you covered. Their team also offers indoor air quality assessments and solutions, helping customers breathe easier.
Additionally, Accurate Air also offers a yearly maintenance plan, called a PSA, which includes semi-annual inspections, preferred no overtime service, extended parts warranties, and discounted repairs.
