EDIT:.SAVE YOUR MONEY. HIRE SOMEONE THAT STANDS BY THEIR WORK AND WARRANTY. I WISH I HAD KNOWN WHAT I KNOW NOW. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEYVery professional, knowledgeable, on time and impressive. Our experience with Eric and his team has given us complete confidence in the system they installed and the work they completed. Eric came out every day to check on the installation. We highly recommend this company for all your heating and cooling systems.

Our Furnace stopped working a few hours before the Big Game. I called Eric Kjelshus Energy Heating and Cooling and they were onsite within an hour. They had the heat back on soon after getting here. After replacing a part and servicing the unit, our Furnace now works quieter and better than ever before. This was our second time using them. Top notch service and a reasonably priced. I would recommend to all!

Report
I had my HVAC checked because it wasnt cooling. The tech diagnosed it as a pump failure because it had equalized pressure on both sides of the pump. I had HAHAs from Gladstone come to check it and they were able to show that the pump was working and that the coolant pressure was low. They diagnosed it as a leak and didnt try to sell me a whole new unit. HAHAs used the UV dye but then found that the pump wasnt working. Eric Kjelshus was 100% correct the first time and replacement was required. Great service, high recommend this local business.
