Do not call or trust these people! They were supposed to do a routine maintenance on our a/c unit…read more They claimed it would cost $79 on the phone, which sounds more than fair. But when they came, the technician claimed it would be another $180 to clean the unit and that we needed to clean the unit before he could finish the inspection, which is totally a scam as we have used another company who did all of it for one flat $99 fee but wasn't available since we are selling our home and wanted to get it done sooner than later. And then he tried to upsell again by saying our Freon was low. But we declined since we had to pay $80 just for him to visually inspect our unit without being able to complete the inspection. So now we have to do the entire thing again with another hvac servicer, one that is actually honest and not upsell a routine maintenance into an almost $300 charge! We even spoke with the owner/manager who said nothing could be done. So they won't even work with you, and you have to pay $80 just to get them to leave without really doing anything of any value. So save yourself the money and the headache and look elsewhere! In response to the business manager: I gave AI screen shots of our interactions and people can read their take on our situation. The fact that you deleted the part where I took a screen shot of you telling us to go ahead and allow the technician to do the work and that we would discuss price later is proof of your dishonesty (see photos). I never said it was for 3 furnaces. I said that we had 3 hvac units and one furnace was being repaired for a minor gas leak, which was fixed. And that we don't have a/c bc we need a functioning furnace. And who services furnaces in the summer? And the fact remains that we were told one price, and that you guys could not complete the maintenance per that quoted price. If that was the case, he should have left and not charge us anything. Instead we had to pay $80 for nothing essentially since the maintenance could not be completed. It also doesn't change the fact that you guys charge an egregious fee for cleaning, which is why we declined the service. He said he had to open up the unit and even maybe clean it with chemicals. This is absolutely unheard of. Our normal HVAC service providers are honest people and have been maintaining our units for many years and they have never told us we had to open up our unit to clean it (which is risky for routine maintenance). You guys have proven that you do not behave honestly, and instead, are a lower/reasonable cost on the phone and up charge for unnecessary work when on site when most people feel they are already stuck with you. Who in their right mind would agree to have someone do the work and then decide on the cost (as you admitted to below)? That is just another way to get us stuck with the work with no idea of what the total actual cost would be. No professional contractor operates like that, and no one should agree to work before knowing the cost. And we are not the only customers who felt scammed and over priced if you read other unhappy customers. I should have read the reviews more closely as you also service appliances which skews your reviews for smaller less complex jobs, making it harder to ascertain your credibility and affordability for just HVAC. But my review stands as is, and nothing is being misrepresented. Maybe this review will help you take another look at your business practices, and if you cannot complete the job you were sent for, you shouldn't charge for it. You should also do a better job getting clarification on the work. I assumed you knew it was for a/c annual maintenance. The fact that we had our furnace repaired shouldn't impact that and you guys should know better than that. Otherwise, how can you call yourself an hvac service provider if you don't even know that you need to service air conditioners in the summer and furnaces for the winter? So your excuse about the wrong work being performed is entirely on you as the service provider, not on me and not on my husband. And I never said I wanted 3 furnaces to be maintained so go back and listen to the call as that was never said. And my husband never agreed about the wrong work being scheduled, further reducing your credibility. They can quote whatever they like, but it doesn't excuse that they pressured us to do work before even telling us the price (see photo), they are over priced, incompetent if they think they need to open up an a/c unit to clean it (which is risky) plus no one maintains their furnaces in the summer. Given that we had to repair a gas leak in our furnace, I just wanted to see if it was working okay because the a/c won't work if the furnace won't work. So there are no inaccuracies in my review, but there are glaring issues with this company and how they operate. People can read all of this should they choose to and make up their own minds. IMHO this business is someone you want to avoid.

As a one man operation I would think he would work much faster than he does, but he is actually quite slow. And to top it off, if you ask him to explain the various charges, he develops an attitude. Buyer beware.

No vague promises of "I will see when I can get to it", he arrived the next morning and stayed until the problem was resolved. BTW I was very impressed by Marvin's HVAC knowledge, as well as his patient and friendly attitude while working in my home. Thanks!

I explained this to Nick and he put us on a priority call as a result. Nick was able to come back two days later and installed the new pump and we can now use the A/C normally. We have used this company since 1984 and have had no problems at all. We used to own a business and used this company and had no problems. Each contact we have had has been very professionally handled and done well. I was more than surprised to see a few low ratings for this company. I can't imagine having a bad experience with them ever. One time during a clean and check visit, I tripped and fell onto the floor. I am disabled and the tech, who's name I can't remember at the moment, immediately sat on the floor next to me, held my hands, asked numerous times if I wanted 911 called and stayed with me until I was ok to stand up. He even called me back later the same day to see if I was still ok. I notified the company of his attentiveness and being of such great help in keeping me calm. I suffered no injury, but was quite shaken up by the whole thing and this young man was a Godsend as far as I am/was concerned. We will clearly be using them for as long as necessary.

Hero Air is great as far as I can tell. I mean it seems like nothing comes cheap but they at least…read moreseem fair. I will copy the review I wrote about ABC, which lead me to hiring Hero Air in the first place to give you the full picture: Update: ABC did show up at 8pm the following night and proceeded to quote me $1,363 to replace some components and $475 to deep clean the condenser coil. I was paying for their VIP service and that is the quote I got. I said no way since I trust them zero. Got Hero Air, who get amazing reviews on Yelp to come out and were there within 2 hours. Turns out I needed a new thermostat, which all in for diagnosing, running out to get the thermostat, and installing for $407. He also recommended a deep cleaning and charged me $150, so for $557 instead of $1,833 which wouldn't have even fixed the problem I am up and running 4 hours after requesting an appointment. So when I said above they hope idiots will let them get away with charging triple, I was not exaggerating. ABC deserves to go out of business. It seems like with their AI reservation system and "fluid" scheduling they probably go bought out by private equity and it seems like they are running themselves into the ground. DO NOT USE THEM FOR ANYTHING!
