These days, spending money on your house whether for a planned project or unplanned repair, finding…read morea business that you can not only trust to do the work but also offer the customer experience that at least matches and at best exceeds your expectations is rare. This fall, we needed our roof replaced and hired a contractor that was recommended by a neighbor. The process extended well over a month with the general having subbed out all aspects of the job to other contractors that not only daily were unsupervised, performed shoddy work requiring multiple call backs almost every day, but also damaged multiple parts of the house including our air conditioner. Our hard-earned money had these contractors dump roofing materials, pieces of Hardie siding, flashing from siding work, nails, etc., into our AC unit. This, of course, was unnoticed until the unit kicked on and a cyclone of bad and carless decisions by our roofing company clanged around damaging the coil and fan, spewing what it could up through the top. The costs and stress of the roofing work had already put us past the scope of what were prepared to handle. Fortunately, before I could yet again look up at the sky and ask why every contractor brought bad luck, I pulled up Bartlett's number. We had used them for a furnace check earlier in the year. They picked up immediately, and listened. Not, 'you're matter is important to us...you'll hear back in a few days.' They were as concerned about what had happened, not just through our long ordeal with the roofers but for the AC unit they installed. Bartlett said they would have someone come out ASAP as our roofer wanted to open the AC himself so that he could inspect and clean it on his own. That wasn't going to happen. Vince came out and assessed the unit and cleaned it out. He was extremely helpful in going over the damage to our unit that was only about 7 years old, asked what our intentions were as far as if we were looking to repair the unit, live with the damage to it, or replace it. He explained and fairly documented each option going over the pros and cons of each taking into account our current indoor equipment, ductwork, and performance expectations. His documentation helped us work with our roofer to understand the cost of their damages. We made the decision that repairing the damaged unit would be much of the cost a new unit would be. Vince had given us multiple options for our budget with zero push to sell us any of them. He continued to be transparent on each choice. We decided on a new Lennox 4-ton unit with matching evaporator coil. As Vince had been, every person from Bartlett whether on the phones or those that arrived for the install treated us like we were part of their family and respected our house as such. The install team was great and made sure any changes to our ductwork/etc we understood especially since the new unit is the new R454B type which required some additional required sensors, etc. After install, I had some questions on the unit and its efficiency due to confusing government energy guide labeling and Vince spent an entire weekend making sure everything was correct. Because a larger unit was installed, some things had to be modified for the indoor coil and space to make some of the changes was limited. Vince took the time to come out and look at everything and listen and came up with a plan to make everything as perfect as possible. I do not know any other business or company that would without hesitation take the time to even consider doing that. Within a day, he had a team come out and make some adjustments and even upgrade our humidifier with a new model that not only performed better but does not leak and have all the other problems the former unit had by design. This team took their time to make everything not just fit but to work better than the old equipment could ever have done. I kept waiting for the other shoe to drop only because of the terrible time we'd had with the roofers and any other company that serviced or replaced anything in our house. Before they left, they made sure to ask if everything looked good, the install\cleanup\etc. I actually smiled and told the technician that it all looked amazing and like someone that cared did all the work. A very long story short, if you through need or desire to change HVAC equipment or service any of it, do not hesitate to call Bartlett Heating & Air Conditioning. They respond as quickly and with the care a family member would give you and your house and treat the smallest jobs with the same detail as the large ones.

He was even able to do the repair! I highly recommend JDT heating and cooling. We will be using their services again in spring when it's time to replace our AC unit.

I sent a message via Yelp on a Sunday night and they immediately scheduled our oven troubleshooting for Monday afternoon. Their front office staff is incredibly responsive! George (technician) arrived timely and was very thorough. He explained things to me every step of the way. He is approaching this very methodically - ok, so it's not the igniter, let's look at the next link in the chain... I saw George called out by name in other Yelp reviews, and I understand why he comes so highly recommended! He called the manufacturer to discuss his findings, but the manufacturer tech team wasn't available. He let me know he would be calling them again in the morning and that he would reach out to me with an update. I've had plenty of negative or so-so experiences with other service technicians from other companies. This experience with George / Astera is so positive that I'm posting my review even before the service is completed. Astera will be getting first crack at all of my appliance and HVAC service calls going forward.

Tried to tune the furnace anyway to accommodate it, which was actually kind of fun to watch all the different ways it could be done. No other HVAC technician I've ever worked with before has done that. A/C maintenance went great too. First company I've ever hired that didn't try to sell me an entirely new unit just due to a faulty capacitor. Even gave me the model number of the capacitor to replace if I want to save money and do it myself (I'm reasonably handy so it's something I'd probably do). I'll be using them for as long as they give great service!
