Horrible experience with this contractor. We bought new home from Jim sands construction who had hired Al Gordon to do all the plumbing heating air conditioning work. First summer in our new home Our a.c. unit would run all day long on hot days and never shut off till maybe midnight and air temp. in our house would actually raise a few degrees during the day. We called sands about this and he sent Al Gordon himself to our house. He checked the a.c. unit himself and said it is fine. We complained to him and said it runs all day long ect... He replied and I quote " it is better if you a.c. unit runs continuously then to have it cycle on and off now and then" . I asked him will does your a.c. in your home run all day long and temp increases during the day ? he wud not answer and left and would not help us. We put up with it until 6 yrs later the A Coil in our A.C. unit burst and leaked Freon out. We called Gordon about it, and said "well warranty has expired and we would have to charge you our full rate to either fix or replace it. We couldn't believe it. We hired a different contractor to help us. Plus we had others looked at it and told us their opinions. Compared quotes opinions from 4 licensed heating cooling plumbing contractors and all 4 were AGHAST at what they saw- Gordons had put in a 2ton A.C. unit in a 1650sq ft house, they all said they would never put in one that small in house that size, plus they noticed the unit had under sized wiring to it- had 16guage wire on a 30 amp circuit, should have been 10 guage wire. Some of the 16 guage wire already had some of the insulation melted off. They all said Gordon put in undersized equipment, wiring, and cheapest equipment in. In our new addition in town of Janesville ia. Gordon did this to all the new homes in this new addition. Most of the neighbors here are having the same issues with their air conditioning also. IN SHORT AL GORDON under bid the competition by installing undersized cheapest equipment he could get!!! We now have a new high efficient 3 ton rheem A.C. unit with 10yr plus warranty installed with proper wiring, and our electric bill during the summer has been drastically reduced. I normally don't complain about people in business on their own, for they have to work hard to stay in business and have lot more pressure worrys than us that work at places. But after what we and some of our neighbors have gone thru, WE WILL NEVER recommend this business to anyone. We all asked him to please replace these undersized a.c. units with bigger better ones and he refused!!!! He only cares about himself and not about the customers! read more
