The Good Stuff
Compatibility help
HomeIQ identified a supposedly incompatible AC system and used a converter so a Nest thermostat could communicate with it.
Neat installations
Several customers mention tidy work; one team repaired a ceiling after cutting it and left the apartment spotless.
Fast repairs
An AC that had stopped cooling was repaired the same day, while another customer reported a quick fix for leaks and other issues.
Clear explanations
Technicians commonly explain the fault and proposed solution; one repair was completed without unnecessary charges.
Competitive quotes
Customers describe AC installation and thermostat pricing as competitive, including a project quote that compared well with larger providers.
Helpful aftercare
One customer says a Nest that stopped connecting to Wi-Fi was replaced promptly, showing useful follow-up in that case.
Tips for a Better Visit
Confirm scope. Ask what the quotation includes and how extra materials are priced before approving thermostat work.
Check compatibility. If your AC is unusual, ask for a compatibility check; one installation needed a converter for the Nest to work.
Request cleanup. Confirm that cleanup is included, since one customer found dust, cables and cement left after old devices were removed.
Allow buffer. Keep some flexibility around appointment times; one scheduled 9:30am visit ran 2.5 hours late.

The Bottom Line
HomeIQ in Al Quoz handles smart-home and cooling work, with reviews most often centred on Google Nest and Ecobee thermostat installations, AC repairs and larger AC replacement projects. Customers describe technicians who can work through compatibility issues, explain rewiring or conversion requirements, and configure systems across villas and apartments. The strongest pattern is careful, knowledgeable installation.
Reviews mention four Nest thermostats and a doorbell fitted neatly, seven Ecobee thermostats supported through renovation-related cabling problems, and a Nest Gen 1-to-Gen 4 upgrade completed ahead of schedule. AC work also gets specific praise: a non-cooling system was repaired the same day, while another project addressed a chronic chiller leak and a badly connected kitchen exhaust fan. Pricing is often described as reasonable or competitive, and one customer appreciated being told that AC fans did not need replacing.
Still, get the scope and additional-material costs in writing. A contrasting review says a quote doubled and six Nest units were left unconnected. Timing and cleanup also deserve confirmation: some customers report spotless finishes, while others mention dust, cement and a long appointment delay.
Ask for compatibility checks, a clear quotation and a final app demonstration before the team leaves.
