    Amerikhomes gave me a very reasonable price to install a mini split in my living room. Leon and Omar arrived on time and were very friendly and professional. They did a really neat job and cleaned up when they were done. The mini split both looks and performs great! Thank you Amerikhomes!

    Leon arrive on time and ready to take care of a tricky job. I am having all steam radiator in place stripped, restored and powder coated. Leon knew exactly what to expect and came prepared for any of the complications associated with old steam radiators that may not have been touched or maintained in ages. He had to cut away several of the steam valves to safely decouple them from the floor pipes. This is huge, because if you do not remove properly you could risk damage to the floor pipe which turns into a huge job instead of putting in the extra effort to finesse things. 100% would recommend, all of the radiators removed and now ready for pickup by the restoration company. I'll work with Leon when the finished product has been received and we're ready to re-install. Thanks Leon

    Brand new unit waiting to be installed outside

    I renovated my home and decided I didn't want a steam boiler and individual large air conditioners along with steam radiators for heat but still needed both Heat and Cooling. I contacted Amerikhomes and made an appointment for Leon to swing by to get an opinion on a new system. He came on time and recommended a mini split system as the solution which would be my primary source for both heating and cooling. We agreed on a system and moved forward with the installation. He ran the piping/wiring and drainage for the units in each room but didn't mount the units until the sheetrock was up. Once the sheetrock was up, he mounted the units and brazed the piping. He advised fittings was not the way to go because as time passes, it may produce a leak and because all the piping is inside the wall, it'll be very difficult to get to whereas brazing is more a permanent connection so he sealed each location via brazing. This was not a 1 time visit. The installation required a multitude of visits to complete. Once everything was installed and ready to be powered on, we went ahead and briefly tested it. The A/C was blowing ice cold and the Heat was nice and warm. No issues during the summer with the A/C but when winter came, a serious problem started to occur. In heat mode, the defrost came on which in itself is not unusual but what was is the fact that it would not turn off. The defrost cycle continued to run to the point where the inside units would start building up frost and ice and the only way for the unit to start heating up again was if you turned off all the indoor units and turned them back on. I contacted Leon to inform him and he couldn't find any issues with his work and that it has to be the unit. Justifiably, he will have to charge me to troubleshoot the unit to pinpoint the problem. For months, Leon and the vendor went back and fourth pointing out the possible causes for the issue but the vendor continued blaming Leon's work and Leon kept explaining that the issue was with the unit so they would not pay him to troubleshoot the unit itself. At this point, we were at the "tail end" of winter and ended up putting up with powering down all the units and powering them back on when the defrost issue started. It took months back and fourth with the vendor and manufacturer that winter had already passed and heat was no longer needed. Towards the end of summer I decided to take matters into my own hands and go based on what Leon mentioned to me being possible causes. he told me that it could be one of 3 things. Either a bad thermistor, a bad controller board or not enough Freon. Well, I know the charge was good because Leon had tested the unit countless times in front of me and the PSI was the same each time. I started with the cheapest item which was to purchase 3 thermistors. Tested each new thermistor and swapped them out. Upon testing the old ones, I found them to be functioning correctly but decided to leave the new ones in place anyways. Well... If the Thermistors were good and the PSI was within range, then the only other item according to Leon is the Controller board but would have to pay out of pocket since the manufacturer would not take responsibility and would charge me $678.00 for the controller. Keep in mind that i already spent thousands on the unit and the installation just to spend spend loads more on an expensive part for a brand new unit less than 1 year old. I refuse to further fund the manufacturer and decided to get the part on my own. I found a controller board from china for less than half the cost the manufacturer charged me. The part arrived ~ 3 weeks after I purchased it and went ahead that same day to swap it out. I took pictures of each part to make sure I put everything in the right place once disassembled. Long story short, I completed the swap. Also had to "de-bug" the system for it to recognize the indoor units. The whole process took me a good 3 hours. It was not cold enough to test because the temps outside were in the mid 60's so I had to wait until it got colder to turn the heat on. 3 weeks have passed where the heat needed to be used and finally started using the heater. After crossing my fingers, the unit, after 4 hours of being ran went into defrost (as it should) but came out of it as it supposed to do. It has been 3 months and not a single time did the defrost get stuck. LEON WAS RIGHT! Despite not charging me for the work/advice, he gave me the information to figure out what the problems could be. I have to say Leon was excessively patient during this whole headache and charged me not a penny more than the cost for the installation. Most installers would have said "everything on my end is good. Good luck dealing with the manufacturer" but Leon stuck around through the rough patches. He is fair on price, knowledgeable and patient. I will always use him for future reference anything HVAC related... I advise/recommend you to do the same.

    Is there a different phone number or a website? Tried calling three times in the last two weeks and left a voicemail. Nobody picks up or calls back.

    Hi, we apologize for the inconvenience. Please call 718-600-1907 or email us at Amerikhomes@gmail.com. you can also leave a number to best reach you and we will call you back.

    What was his original charge for the visit and the hourly rate thereafter?

    I believe it was approx $11-12K but I never got an in home assessment. I would insist on one before I would agree to any work. I received different estimates & different BTU recommendations depending on the Brand. I eventually went with Daikin.

    Ben solved some very thorny problems with my boiler. I have a 325 MBH Burnham 2009 steam boiler in…read moremy brownstone that was failing to start up especially after it had been down for a while. I mistakenly thought it was a worn out thermocouple and tried to replace it since I saw it done last time the problem arose. Unfortunately I was doped up on Benedryl to treat a bad head cold and caused a major short circuit of the controls while attempting the work. Having no idea of the extent of the damage and how to repair it and having bad luck with my previous contractor, I submitted inquiries to several contractor referral sites. Ben is on Yelp & Thumbtack and responded to me quickly. It was the weekend and the house was getting cold so I thought I should try him. He was very methodical and thorough in his work. It took several days while he was testing and replacing wires and testing the controls. While prepared to replace all the controls, he found that he only had to replace the 12 volt transformer and low water cutoff. He drained and cleaned out the boiler prior to installing the new cutoff. Apparently the boiler had been failing to start due to sediment from the dirty water on the water level probe of the low water cut off. He advised me how to periodically clean out the boiler to prevent the problem from recurring. Contrary advice I got from my prior company led to this problem. Unlike me he knew exactly what he was doing. His solutions followed an expert step by step diagnosis which lead to finding what needed to be replaced and not replacing more than was necessary and then checking all controls to make sure the boiler is operating properly and safely. He was also a pleasure to work with: friendly and respectful. I learned three major lessons from this experience: 1. Don't assume that the solution to a problem will be the same solution next time the same problem arises. The main original problem was not a worn out thermocouple but rather dirty water. Correlation is not causation. 2. A little bit of knowledge can be a dangerous thing and never try to do possibly hazardous work when you are not clear headed no matter how smart or brave you think you are, and 3. Always call Ben if you have another problem with the boiler even if it is just replacing a thermocouple! Thanks again Ben
