Report
From the very beginning meeting with Gary, the professionalism was great. The most impressive response to me was their heart and care. Our unit was totally gone and it is very hot in the summer and this company brought window units to our home to use until our unit could be installed. That meant so much to us. They are a great company with such perfect and awesome customer service. Every company could learn from this great company who employs phenomenal, great hearted folks. Thank you so much. I will refer to everybody.

From the time of our first phone call to the install, everything was excellent. Gary was awesome to work with and the install team was top notch. Gary even brought us 2 window units to use while we waited for the the new system. That takes customer service to a whole new level. I have been in the customer service business myself for 36 years, and this experience has made me a better customer service representative, myself. I don't think that they could have done one thing better. I did not get a chance to meet the owner, but he should be proud of what he's built, and the people he employs. Thank

Capital City is wonderful to work with. Our heating system at the office was not coming on and the office was 55 degrees when we would come in. I called this morning and they had someone to me within the hour. The problem was fixed quickly and professionally. Now we are starting to warm up! I highly recommend their services.
