These guys aren't cheap and it took them several weeks to get to me because they are just insanely busy, but if you want to get a heat pump, these are absolutely 100% the people to talk to. I watched Greg and every thing his crew did and with a triple purge and pressurization test complete with a nitrogen flush I'm pretty sure that my system will run for over a decade without any issues. (I'll update this review if I have any issues)
If you hire anyone else, well, good luck with that... Mitsubishi heat pumps is ALL these guys do and Greg has a massive attention to detail that you rarely see in

Greg and Dan have installed one ASHP mini-split system for me and are soon to do a larger job for another property of mine. I find them personable, easy to reach, and quick to answer questions. They work to keep costs down and I find their pricing excellent. When a small problem came up with the first system they corrected it with no quibbling. They go the extra mile to search out the right system for the building. I prefer to work with independent contractors when I am able, and Absolutely Specialized has won my confidence.

Nothing but good things to say about Absolutely Specialized, a honest and skillful business operated by a father-and-son team. They recently installed two units of duckless a/c unit in our restaurant. Without their timely and professional installation, we could not have survived this extremely hot season. We recently went through a complete renovation of our restaurant and experienced many different types of contractors. These guys are definitely different from those common contractors only focused on money. I would recommend Greg and Dan to anyone without any reservations.
