Poor follow-up and they charge for equipment quotations if you don't order it from them. Service contracts cost more than other providers.

Have used them for many years for both heating, hot water and air conditioning. Have always been satisfied with equipment and service personnel. Customer service staff is super at getting info correct the 1st time and follow up is always excellent.

Maintaining Your HVAC Equipment

The most important maintenance task for HVAC systems is something you can do yourself—replacing the air filter. Check your filter monthly. When a filter has a matting of dirt—i.e., it’s difficult to see through when you hold it up to a light—it’s time to replace it.

HVAC Maintenance Contracts Are Usually Bad Buys
