We recently had a furnace and water heater installed by Edwin Stipe and, based on this…read moreinstallation, I would never recommend them to anyone. Here's the story: Several years ago, Edwin Stipe replaced our A/C. We were happy with the install, and happy with the technicians who have been inspecting the unit as part of the service plan. This is why we chose Edwin Stipe for the furnace and water heater install. Tim Fleischood of Edwin Stipe came to our house and made recommendations for the work. It sounded reasonable, and based on past work, we went ahead with the job. One of the problems I had with the old furnace was the filter was located inside the furnace and it was always collapsing. Tim said no one installed the filter in the furnace anymore, and promised it would be on the outside in the ductwork. Installation day came. The workers were friendly and respectful of our property, donning booties to keep the floor clean as the brought equipment and tools in and out of the house. This is where the positives end. When the installation was complete, I discovered the filter was installed inside the furnace, just like Tim said it would NOT be. The workers said it would be OK and the filter would not collapse. I grudgingly said OK, and they left. When they left, they said someone would contact me for the permit inspections. The A/C was running and after a couple of hours I decided to check out the filter. I had to remove 4 or 5 sheet metal screws to access the filter (ridiculous!) and the filter was indeed collapsing. Looking at the installation, I noticed, among other things, the gas to the furnace was off. WTH? Clearly the furnace was never tested, and no one said anything about returning any time to turn on the gas or testing the furnace! There were also massive air leaks in the duct work where they had installed a transition piece for the new furnace. I contacted Tim, explained my frustration, and he said they would return. The same tech who did the installation returned (I hope he never returns again). He told me (believe it or not), it doesn't matter if there are air leaks because its in the house. What?? He had absolutely no answer as to why the gas was left off and asked if I wanted the furnace tested. Uh, yeah! The tech turned on the gas and ran the furnace for about 30 seconds. He cut a very jagged hole in the side of the ductwork, mutilated a filter because it didn't fit, and cut a piece of exhaust flue in half, straightened it out, and screwed it over the filter. I was livid! It was the worst hack job I've ever seen. I contacted Tim (yet again) and sent him a picture of what was done. He promised that someone would come out fix everything. A few days later, another installation team came out and installed a proper filter holder. They left and I thought all was good. After a month and a half, I contacted Edwin Stipe to ask if a permit was applied for, because no one had contacted me for an inspection. They said they had mailed the permit information to me and I would have to contact the township for the inspection. OK, but it would have been nice if they had told me that in the beginning! Well, today were the inspections, one for electrical, one for mechanical. The electrical inspector noted that the top of the 2 foot conduit was not supported and it should be. He said it was sloppy work and he would talk to the installer. He didn't fail it, since I said I'd support the conduit. The mechanical inspector noted that the exhaust for the water heater should have a minimum of 3 screws equally spaced at each exhaust joint. Of four joints, only one had enough screws holding it together. He gave me the option of him failing the inspection or I could add screws. I promised to add screws. As much as I would have wanted Edwin Stipe to return and complete the job to the point it could pass inspection, I really didn't want to schedule them to come out yet another time, and have to reschedule the inspection. Plus, I'm not really sure they would have done it correctly. So, zero communication, three visits to complete the installation, sloppy work, and an installation I had to complete in order to pass inspection. Would I recommend Edwin Stipe? Certainly not!

Do Not Recomens! My wife and used Edwin Stipe for a/c and heating needs. We signed up for the…read moreservice plan to have it checked once a year to service our system and make sure everything is working correctly. The service man came out and stated we needed a new upstairs heating and a/c unit. We just had the blower replaced three years prior. The gentleman told us the unit is getting ready to expire and he recommended a new a/c and heating unit at the cost of $16,000 to $20,000. We got a second opinion. Thank God we did. The unit is working fine. The gentleman that came out said there was a wire that powered up the unit was very loose and could cause the system to eventually not work. He repaired the connection. To date, we have had no issues with either one of the a/c or heating units. Note: the gentleman that came out to service our units were highly recruited by Edwin Stipe to work for them. People, beware of the scams that Edwin Stipe uses in increase their new unit installs to increase there total sales for the year!

Our regular HVAC guy was laid up. Contacted Volkman to diagnose a heat problem on our 2nd floor…read more Volkman kept his appointment & diagnosed our problem as a nonfunctioning duct dampener. The cost for the diagnosis was $224.19. The estimate to return & change out the malfunctioning dampener was $836.05. This would have been a total charge of $1,060.24 to replace a faulty $200.00 dampener. Our regular HVAC tech recovered, stopped & replaced the dampener for a total of $385.00. This included re-diagnosing the problem, parts & labor. Problem solved. I would never use Carl Volkman & sons HVAC LLC again. Their prices are exorbitant & unfair.

Long story short, they went out to the home in mid December after many phone calls trying to find out why no one was out yet. After many excuses, they finally sent someone out for the inspection and I called to see when I should expect the proposal to be emailed to us. I was told within a day or two. Needless to say this never happened and after many more phone call follow ups, I finally got Maggie (the woman who answers the phone there and does the scheduling) on the phone on Jan 9 and coincidentally she tells me, "I was going to call you in 5 minutes...Mr Campbell just does not have the time to do the job." I thanked her for finally getting me an answer but did explain that thier communication left much to be desired. Bottom line..Communication is key. There should have been follow up immediately advising that they would not or could not do the job. Very disappointing.
