I used them to repair my ac and a leaking faucet. They did a great job on both projects.

In November 2024 the technician from Efficient came to our house in Indianapolis to drain and refill our two water heaters. Through his incompetence, he flooded the entire basement, including the finished part. We have been out of pocket almost $7000 for the cleanup and repairs, and the owner of Efficient has ignored our invoices, phone calls and emails. He apparently has no intention of reimbursing us. We even had to contest the charge for the service call on our credit card, because he refused to refund the almost $500 we had paid the technician for a year's service plan just minutes before being told that our basement was flooded.

HOME OWNER BE WARE!! We called this company out on Friday Jan. 31st to repair a broken furnace. Their resolve was to replace a motor or replace the furnace due to its age. We paid for the motor and was told this should resolve the problem until we can replace the furnace. The furnace went out again Feb 6th. Because they had fixed a problem last year for the furnace, I chose to get a second opinion. I was told in that review the actual problem was a leaking pipe that had leaked into the parts and that another part was also affected which Efficient System did not mention AT ALL. It was very apparent that this was the issue. There was rust everywhere. We trusted the Efficient System rep when he told us that the furnace was just old in fact his quote included the following note with NO mention of rust, water leak or the other faulty part which you could see just looking at it: DRAFT INDUCER REPLACEMENT: Replace inducer assembly do to failure other issues may still exist after repair but unable to test until inducer is repaired Efficient Systems NEVER mentioned any leaks or rust or that more than one part was affected. I called them back and requested that they remove the part and refund our money for a fix that did not solve the problem and would force us to spend an insanely unnecessary amount for several separate repairs. Rob and his assistant refused to provide a refund and argued that they fixed a part. Yeah a part that was not needed. Don't call this company. I'm filing with BBB. read more

I hired Efficient Systems to deal with my water heater in the house I rent out near Garfield Park. The pilot light kept winking out when the burner would quit at the end of a heating cycle. I had pulled my hair out and spent most of three days trying to diagnose and repair the thing myself. They told me it was probably the massive amount of lime in the tank getting too hot and exuding more heat than the pilot light thermocouple could take. That made sense, and it was not worth trying to salvage that water heater, so I had them install a new one. They did it for a flat ~$1350 or so. I also asked them to replace the old shutoff valve for the house that is aged to the point where it leaks for a while after being used, and while they were at it, to remove the old bypass valve to a departed water softener that some previous owner used to have. I wanted them to install a new shutoff valve with some threaded pipe so that someone in the future could install a new water softener with less trouble than if it was all sweat fitted. Well, they didn't come prepared to do it when they replaced the water heater. I went on a trip to the East Coast for a week, came back, responded to their email quote with specific instructions and a diagram of what I wanted, and got back this little lecture about needing to set up an appointment to come into the office and meet with so and so and then have someone come out and look at things to see how to set up a new bypass valve, which is definitely not what I asked. It was like they had no record of who I was or anything about what I'd already said I wanted. Rather a pain when they'd had two guys working on the water heater, which is literally 12 inches away from the shutoff and bypass, two weeks prior. It's pretty clearly not going to be worth the bother to have them do it at this point; I'll either do it myself or call a regular plumber, probably the former. In all, it seems like the water heater was right in their wheelhouse; simple plumbing modifications, not so much. read more

Today in a bit of a panic situation I called Efficient Systems for an electrician and spoke with the Operations Manager John New and he got in contact with Service Manager Rob Baber. Both were prompt and willing to help, not even knowing my full situation. The issue ended up being resolved without the need for an appointment but the way was treated and how they saw my situation as a priority goes a long way in the electrical industry. Rob literaly calmed my anxiety over the phone. Thank you Efficient Systems Electrical Team today your help today. Would highly suggest using this team for all your electrical needs. read more

Recently had Efficient Systems, Inc. put in a new HVAC system for my mother. They were prompt, did a great job, cleaned up everything after themselves. Would highly recommend this Company to others. Thanks, guys! read more

I called them to repair the AC for our carriage house rental apartment. They came that day (which was great!) and the initial agreement was $95 trip/diagnostic fee. He listened to my description and in about 2 minutes told me he needed to replace both the compressor and the fan motor. He then spent about 30 minutes explaining their annual maintenance fee I could purchase (almost $600/year for our full systems), taking pictures and sending those to his shop, talking to them on the phone from his van. He then returned and showed me on his tablet an initial quote of about $560 which included an itemized $75 fee for him to get the parts. I asked him if that included the service fee. He said, "parts, labor, everything." I agreed. He clicked the accent button and the price jumped to ~$780. He explained the increase was because of the extended diagnostic time required, because he was here more than half an hour diagnosing the problem (even though that included a sales pitch for a maintenance agreement!) I asked why I was charged more after agreeing to a price, when he diagnosed the problem so quickly and spent most of his time in the van writing up the estimate and trying to sell a maintenance plan when he had been able to tell me in minutes which parts needed replacing. He said he doesn't like the system either but that's what they do. I said the price might be fair but it feels really shady to raise the price after I accept, right in front of my eyes. He called his manager then told me the best he can do is $600. He would not let me talk to any manager. I said ok, but it still feels shady to raise the price after an initial offer. He then clicked to accept that and the price went up to $698.46. He apologized, said it's their system and he has no control over it. I went ahead and paid them that price. He did the repair. It didn't work. He took it apart and said he'd crossed some wires. He attached them a different way and then it worked. He sprayed it down with my hose and said that was $130 service he was doing for free. It was a very odd way to price a job, and based on their increased fees I felt cheated, because they apparently charged me for time spent trying to sell a maintenance plan. They knew it was a hot day and I'd pay anything they asked. I don't think Ryan cheated me, but I think their system is out of his control and not honest up front. If they wanted to charge almost $800 they should have just charged that up front. If my complex problem risked an extended diagnostic fee they should have told me that up front. I definitely don't feel comfortable asking them to return for any other services. read more

Although their service specialist have been very polite and friendly in person, their customer service is horrible. They installed a new AC unit for me a couple years ago which has continuously leaked after multiple inspections and attempts to fix by their service specialists. Our last technician said it was installed improperly and they have yet to been able to come up with a fix while my basement floods 2-3 times per year. We have their maintenance package so a technician comes out to check it twice a year and they say its functioning properly, then it floods recently after. I have a finished basement that is getting destroyed by their bad install job. On top of everything, they recently came out to try another fix and it has started flooding worse. They have not returned my phone call and on top of that they tried to put another $800 bill on me while it was their installation error to begin with. read more

I have used Efficient Systems three times over the last month due to various needs associated with the sale of my home and the purchase of a new home. They are the most competent and professional HVAC technicians as well as plumbers and electricians I have ever know. It's reassuring to have such a group of service providers available! read more

I had a great experience with Efficient Systems. Sean, Jeff, and Brian were all very kind, easy to work with, and worked quickly to get our furnace replaced. I was very pleased with their communication, and will certainly use Efficient Systems in the future. I highly recommend them to anyone who has HVAC needs. read more

'Twas -11 when all through the house, it was 50; the heater was broken and my man isn't nifty. An internet search was made, and Efficient came to our aide. With the press of a button and the ring of a phone, Rob was ready and in the zone. He had tinkering tools and a smile ready to work for awhile, but before we knew it, Salagadoola mechicka boola Bibbidi-bobbidi-bobippity boppity boo, put them together and what have you got? HEAT. Okay, so maybe I'm not a poet and I've completely confused poem and song, but on a serious note, Effiecient was just that: Efficient. They were here quickly, and resolved the issue. They're close to downtown, which worked for us. Also, they offer a maintenance plan to check your furnace and AC in the fall and in the spring, which we're taking advantage of. Would I recommend them? I just serenaded them with my poetic gift, so what do you think? Of course I do! read more

At the risk of offending electricians everywhere or the IBEW, no one's time is worth $195 an hour. Upon arriving the electrician informed me that I would be charged $195 an hour to look for a faulty circuit (which is why the kitchen ceiling lights were not working). I was hesitant, but they were there, and I decided to let him look for an hour or so. While he was working in the panel the electrician caused a major power surge, There was popping and smoke everywhere. The alarm system went off. I thought I might have lost my computer. I lost a cordless phone, a dvd player, a heater, 2 surge protectors, a saw, and one of my kitchen ceiling lights. The electrician said he did not know how the problem occurred. There was no weather issue, and I have a whole house surge protector to protect from surges coming from the outside. The surge came from the panel he was working in at the time. I told him to stop looking for the faulty circuit and just wire the lights into a back porch light that was working. He did this and when the ceiling lights came on one would not work. The electrician said he did not know if there was something wrong with the fixture before the rewire and offered to give me an estimate for repair. I informed him that given the power surge and the burnt electrical smell that was on them to repair for free. I called his boss and told him it was on them . After deliberating with the employee on the phone for 30 minutes. They decided they would replace the fixture if I paid my $600 bill. I should not have paid the full bill, and I should have been compensated for the other items I lost. They need to send more experienced people who know what they are doing especially at $195 an hour. read more

Super impressed with this company. Previously dealt with another commercial AC company with poor results. The difference is unbelievable. Had an emergency call on weekend. Called at 8am. Spoke with Sean on phone and they sent out a tech in an hour. Very personable and thorough. Reasonable prices. AC works great now. I would recommend to anyone. read more

This has been one of the worst experiences I have had with a company. I read reviews and they impact whether I hire a company. I hardly ever write reviews, however, I hope posting this prevents other families from being in the situation we are in. About 2 years ago I negotiated a deal for a furnace and water heater and thought this company was great to deal with. Unfortunately, 2 other companies have since told me my water heater was not installed up to code. I called Efficient Systems to correct the installation and they proceeded to provide me with poor customer service from that point on. Angie's List reached out to them and they declined to pay for the correction or offer to fix it. Angie's List then recommended I submit to BBB and Efficient Systems declined to respond to the Better Business Bureau. I have documentation from 2 companies and 2 professionals confirming the improper installation and documentation on the outcome of Angie's List and the BBB. I have a furnace company out here today for the 2nd time in a week. I urged you to hire a company that provides customer service throughout the life of your appliances. Their mistakes are costing me more to fix than the "great deal" I thought I was getting back then. read more
