If you want to be sold unnecessary and overcharged service without fixing your AC's true problem,…read morehire this company. I made the mistake to hire this company last week to diagnose and repair my AC system which was cooling fine but intermittently turned itself off. Instead of completing a thorough diagnosis, the technician who was constantly micromanaged over the phone repeatedly push for approval of adding about 3 lbs of refrigerant, an evaporator coil cleaning, and a thermostat replacement. When I declined the refrigerant and cleaning because the unit was visibly clean and there was no clear evidence of needing refrigerant, the manager threw a tantrum over the phone and ordered complete of service. It costed $400+ to just replace a thermostat. I did not know that the performed thermostat replacement was not fixing the true problem, might not have been necessary, and it made the AC performance worse. After the technician left, my AC failed to cool the house and water started coming from the handler. The indoor blower continuing to run even when the thermostat was set to Off and the fan was set to Auto. I had to hire another contractor who quickly identified thermostat's WRONG WIRING and performed the needed repair. No refrigerant needed, no cleaning needed, just firming the connection of the disconnect box, less than $100. The system was running with all readings in range and completely balanced as soon as the new repair was done. What Icy Hot did was short-circuiting cooling and heating together in thermostat installation making the AC to run both cooling and heating at the same time! What a joke if a company cannot even install a thermostat correctly (not to mention it was probably unnecessary) and charges $400+ for a faulty installation. I wrote to Icy Hot noting the FAULTY service, the manager ACKNOWLEDGED the thermostat wiring was incorrect, but REFUSED to reimburse any costs despite their MALPRACTICE which could have cause further damage to my AC. Extremely disappointed with the incompetence, dishonesty, and the lack of accountability after their work created additional problems. Stay away!! [Additional notes given company's response below]: The company's response below shows again their insist of unnecessary service. The AC's issue was not related to refrigerant nor it needed any cleaning. The technician onsite was not able to show much evidence justifying either but was under immense pressure from the management to oversell. The service was scheduled from 3-5pm but the technician did not arrive way after 5pm and took an hour still no clue. A lot of the time was spent speaking on phone with the manager. The service was never an emergency service. I called in the morning, the office said they could dispatch a technician between 3-5pm and we set appointment. Categorizing the scheduled normal service as emergency and claimed to have stayed after hour to falsely induce mercy is just another evidence of dishonesty. Regarding the revisit to correct any error, I was reluctant to call the Icy Hot back given the incompetence and the oversell push during the initial visit, not even for the so-called warranty service. This echoes a review posted by another customer earlier in Google review. I worry that instead of fixing any error, more unnecessary service will be demanded and further damage be done to my AC. Now it is not hard for the company to say: Well, that was an easy error to correct, and you should have called us. This is all because another contractor with true expertise and good ethics has diagnosed Icy Hot's error. If Icy Hot was capable and ethical at the first place, the error would not have occurred with sufficient final steps of double checking wiring, temperature and air flow after thermostat installation. Aren't these necessary steps by trade standards?

Despite an installation hiccup, I used their annual service plan for the last 5 years. Once they started suggesting $500 UV lamps for the outdoor unit, I thought I should probably switch things up for a second opinion. My friends all used Joe Cool, and I am glad I do now too. Clark spent a lot of time going above and beyond, including taking off the original install seam glue for the upstairs unit (which never was) and accessing hard-to-access screws, indicating they never even cleaned the coil post-install once despite paying for it! No wonder they were always in and out in 15 minutes. But he took the time to do it right. Two things you need when hiring tradespeople- expert knowledge and honesty. This company has both, and I am a lifelong customer now.
