Using Yelp, and its star reviews, I selected family-owned Sandfield Air Systems. My wife and I are in our 80s and enjoying the quiet life of retirement. Brett was our service technician and after patiently listening to my telling him how to do his job, assured me our thermostat was not likely the problem, but just a symptom. He demonstrated how over time the system's humidity drain becomes blocked and in doing so, can trip it's overflow cutoff switch, thereby shutting the entire system down thereby avoiding flooding of the attic and everything below. Finally a technician that not only knows his business, but can educate customers about system operations well enough to minimize future occurrences. Equally important, he explained more about the functionality of our system and the optimum settings for ongoing creature comfort. Beautiful, I signed up for their semi-annual maintenance inspections and can now rest assured our home and it's largest mechanical system is in good hands. Thanks Brett, you did good. Now, what else can I fix?

What. A. Disaster…read more Last Tuesday evening I realized our upstairs AC unit wasn't cooling as well as it should. It was 79°, instead of the 72° it was set at. It was bearable so we waited to call in the morning. My husband called Cool Max based on Yelp reviews and they scheduled to come out after lunch. Two men showed up at 3:30p (not the 1-2p time frame stated when he called). One was a service tech (son of the owner) and the other was training (Ex-brother-in-law). They were polite and began to look at the AC unit(s) outside. The service tech came in and told me we had a tiny leak and that the bill would be $1200+. Our home is only three years old and that seemed ridiculous. I called my husband who was about to catch a flight home and he asked what the parts and service breakdown was. The service tech said they didn't do it that way but said he put what was wrong on the iPad and that's the amount it gave him to quote. After asking many questions he finally said he could just refill the refrigerant but that it would likely leak out again in the next TWO TO THREE YEARS. We decided to go that route since it was $281 (including the $89 service call) and he said it would last 2-3 years. They quickly filled the unit, the trainee felt the air blowing with his hand, and said it was blowing 65°. Two hours later I realized that nothing had changed with the upstairs AC so I called them out again. They quickly arrived and after looking at the units realized they had WORKED ON THE WRONG UNIT!!!!! How does that even happen?!?! They asked for a sharpie so they could label which was which. There was no apologies, only excuses. The service tech tried to convince me that I must have a leak in BOTH units even though the downstairs unit is blowing as cold as an ice box. He even tried to once again push the $279 maintenance plan. I can't imagine what would have happened if I had paid to repair the leak that was obviously not there! The service tech said he wouldn't charge for the second visit, wasn't that gracious?!?!

The services described in the provided service agreement were not done. the agreement says "Ductwork: Check for air leaks, and seal ducts."

There is NO ductwork at the inside unit. There is a plenum which goes into the attic where the ductwork is. There was insulation missing on the chilled supply line from the exterior AC unit. That was not repaired. And he never looked at the ductwork at all and it was in need of repair. She kept arguing, talking over me! that he had done everything and that the ductwork was not included and saying he had done everything.

After five other companies/people looked at it, Hale's not only fixed the problem the first time, they spotted stuff that once they pointed it out, should have been obvious to the other guys--and I had a big name that runs ads on the radio out first. The big name company missed the obvious problems. Hale's did not. Everyone they've sent out or I've talked to on the phone has been polite and ready to help. On top of that, their guys are honest and explain everything clearly. I understand my system better now, and this past week when I had another problem, they explained all my options simply so that I could make an informed decision. Fair prices and they got to me fast both times I've had them out. These guys are the real deal. I'm calling them first for all my HVAC needs from here on out.

However, something has changed and my last 3 experiences with A-1 have been very disappointing. I brushed the first one off as he was just having a bad day, the 2nd one as possibly a bad day but I was going to address it when he came out to do the winter check up. During the 1st experience back in June I brought up my concern that the thermostat needed to be replaced. It wasn't replaced when the new system was installed because the wrong one was shipped and I'd started having issues where it wasn't holding the set reading - I might have it set at 75, but walk in to a hot room only to find that the actual temperature was showing 89. We decided since this wasn't a daily or even weekly occurrence we would wait for the winter maintenance check. When I called to schedule that he didn't recall anything from the June visit, instead he was patronizing (my option) and basically told me that I wasn't qualified to determine if a new thermostat was needed (then why did he agree that we'd replace it back in June???). After discussing it for a few minutes the appointment was scheduled. Day of the appointment he called me again and said the work order indicated he should bring a thermostat (yes, that was what we'd discussed when I made the appointment). His response was "Lady there are thousands of models and I don't know which one you would need". Yes, he actually said lady - not my name which he clearly knew since it was on the work order, not even ma'am. Maybe I was already on the defense but I didn't appreciate that or his tone. Bottom line, I said never mind, he hung up on me and that was the last I heard from him. I will find me another company to maintain my HVAC unit and I don't recommend A-1. I can only hope that it was something he had against me personally rather than this is the way he treats everyone.
