I'd give zero stars if I could. They dropped our brand new central air conditioner right off the truck. My husband being the good guy he is, checked the unit and a blade was bent, he asked if they had a comb (a tool that fixes problems with CAC) and they said no. We should have waited 6 weeks and ordered a new unit and rejected it. It was October and we had to wait awhile for the first unit. Our other reasoning was that after 6 more weeks, we would have had an install in December when it gets cold, so running and testing would have been another problem, so we stayed with unit that was dropped hoping that it was okay.So that was problem no 1. On several occasions after that they show up with no tools, no ladders, my husband had to lend them our ladder. What company shows up with nothing? We should have made them order a brand new unit. Our Unit was purchased from a home improvement appliance company and Jen Air had a contract with them as a service provider (sub-contractor). Home improvement appliance company manager named Mike in Bay Shore told us they dropped Jen Air because of too many complaints and are subcontracting it out to Lennox Air now. We are under warranty and called them several times to fix an air handler (has drip pan for condensation (wasn't installed correctly so it leaked, overflowed onto my kitchen ceiling from attic) that was never installed correctly and we have a leak stain in my kitchen that was never fixed. They were great about an apology and calling us back and gave us the person who handles their insurance claims. My husband called back (the guy who they hired to repair, guy never called back) and a year and a half later we still have a water stain on our ceiling that was never fixed. Jen Air should have followed up but never did to see that this repair would be completed. It never was. The next service call was 6/3/16 and they came, did not give us an invoice or yellow repair ticket (which one time was given when we had a problem with the air handler leak in the ceiling(it was no charge on 9/11/15). We called again to set up an appointment on 6/24/16 and they told us it would be a $200 charge, we said NO to that (warranty on CAC) and politely told them 24 hour advance notice not to come because we weren't paying for a service call when unit was under warranty. I told them nicely thank you for your past efforts but we called CAC manufacturer and we won't need their service anymore. CAC froze up and wouldn't stop running, and never shut off with thermostat. (They couldn't deliver proper service). We called our CAC manufacturer and they said we were in their system and were covered under warranty and Jen Air is their contractor to repair. Bottom line no charge should be incurred. SO, on 6/27/16 we get an invoice for $233 for the NO CHARGE warranty service that was done on 6/3/16. They were angry and did an UNETHICAL charge because we dropped their service. They were charging now for what we called for several times and NEVER PROPERLY FIXED and my ceiling is still NOT REPAIRED (see photo) from their bad install on an air handler wasn't installed correctly. DO NOT USE THEM, you'll have many headaches. I called them on 6/27/16 and my patience wasn't there, I think we were more than patient. I lost it and was yelling at woman. Cathy had bad demeanor. They also didn't return phone calls either the last few weeks.
Seriously need to show up with tools and a ladder and not ask clients if they have a ladder. Also, don't come if you aren't going to do job correctly and waste our time from taking off work. When you get a unit carefully take off truck. Don't drop someone's brand new unit. When we had a leak in attic, make sure your insurance contractor comes here to repair our ceiling, which never happened. A year later and we are still waiting. When something is under warranty, make sure you don't charge. When we are nice and give you 24-hour notice for cancellation and we're nice about it, don't be unethical and then send us a bill when you are angry. We tried working with Jen Air we really did. When a company doesn't fix problem many times over leak in system probably from dropping unit and we ask for a good troubleshooter please.
***Also a note, I was first to review this company. It gave me a first to review icon. 3 days later, another reviewer shows up as a first reviewer (really) from 2 months ago saying she had a GOOD INSTALL 10 YEARS AGO). Does that sound right? Guess she works for them.***
I'm fair and honest. WE WERE AT FIRST UNDERSTANDING AND PATIENT. All of these things happened and I can't ignore the facts. I truly don't understand why we had such a hard time with Jen Air. We tried working with them. We now have a ceiling that is damaged that we have to fix ourselves and an CAC that is not up to par for a brand new CAC. This is an entire year of inexcusable events from Jen Air, a totally unprofessional way this was all handled. read more
