Report
I have stuck with you, I believed you in this install, I believed the warranty that you promoted. The a/c you recommended wasn't delivered from the manufacturer with all coolant? I wanna say there was a manufacturers recall on the coil that you never reached out to me about, but waited until we had a problem. Our drain pan over flow sensor that has been replaced, obviously doesn't work as water is leaking through the ceiling for no actual reason for the 2nd time in 2 months. We are now approaching ridiculous, and for no fault of your techs, they have been 100% with me that there is no reason for

After spending the night without proper AC I was super excited to be able to receive same day service! Not only was this company super fast and efficient, they were professional, efficient, and got my home cool again. A special thank you to the technician Mitchell who made sure he left us with cold AC and great service. Definitely will be using this company again for any AC needs!

Ed and his team are excellent. I refer him to every one of my clients because of their integrity. They do not try to scare people just to make a bigger sale. Just an excellent company.

I wouldn't trust anyone else to handle anything and everything AC related. Work done on time and with great attention to detail, plus the lowest price in town! Can't beat that. Ed and his team installed my walk in coolers to perfection.
