Very easy to schedule (either through their website or by calling the office). My service advisor, Wayne, was terrific. Wayne was very respectful and patient as he explained the issue. Please let the owner know how courteous, thorough, and patient Wayne is with his recent visit. He took a step above others to explain the issues. BOTTOM LINE: *** Yes, I recommend them to others 100% **** Basnett Plumbing, Heating, AC & Electrical. They are honest, upfront, reliable, courteous, and do the job right! The techs and staff at Basnett are helpful and upbeat, with a great attitude and personality, which is extremely helpful when dealing with a potential emergency.

From the start, the installation process was riddled with problems. Rather than detailing each issue (which the company would likely try to excuse, as they did every time I raised concerns), I'm posting pictures so you can judge for yourself. I strongly recommend getting everything in writing--many verbal guarantees I received were completely disregarded. For example, instead of floor units in my kids' bedrooms, I was given ceiling units, one of which is positioned so low it practically touches my son while he sleeps. Now, as I'm finishing my basement, I had a friend who works in HVAC assess the mess Earth Tech left behind. He estimated it would take 3-4 days and cost around $3,000 to fix. He also explained the risks associated with their work: pipes joined in the middle are prone to future leaks, especially when unsupported, as stress on the joints increases the likelihood of failure. With so many joints, locating a leak would be nearly impossible. Shockingly, much of the system is held together with duct tape. While this may last through their warranty period, it's clear the entire system was designed to last just long enough to shift the responsibility of repairs onto the customer.

They walked me through what they were doing, and were happy to answer all the questions I had, being a new homeowner.

You can see the photos of the system they installed on their website. Kevin was the best. He was at the site every day. He is very friendly and very knowledgeable, loves what he does.. He still comes to check on the system periodically. The guys were so professional we did not even notice the transition from old to a new system. I would highly recommend this company.

This made communicating with them extremely difficult the entire time. The morning they were supposed to arrive at 9 am so I took the day off from work. They didn't show up until several hours later with no communication regarding that. The man who serviced our heater had never seen our type of system before. He tinkered with it for a couple hours and finally "fixed" it. A few days later we were without heat. We called them several times, leaving them a message, but they did not get back to us. We were about to hire someone else to come, but the next morning they finally said they would come take a look, free of charge. The man came back and ended up replacing a part. We got an invoice in the mail for that part despite the free of charge promise. Shortly after that our heater broke again so we ended up calling a different company. After their last visit and the previous invoice for the part, we received ANOTHER invoice in the mail for a much larger charge than the previous. We reached out to Chambers several times trying to figure out what that invoice was for, as their last visit was free of charge. To this day we have not heard back from them even after writing them a letter to remind them of what happened. They continue to send us delinquent payment invoices and will not respond to us when we reach out to them.

I also feel obligated to give a 5 star review as they came very highly recommended from some friends, I've had a great experience my first year, and some people who don't think they have to pay their bill or couldn't service them because they're not current customers seemingly are dragging down their aggregate score by giving 1 star reviews. Wish all of their clients would give reviews on here. Figured they would mostly be 5 star. After a couple companies were too incompetent to help us with our seeping oil tank, Cubby came and quickly gave us a quote, did a quick fix, and scheduled a new tank asap. The few times we've had people in here to help with another issue, they were honest, friendly and got the job done. You do need to sign up for automatic delivery with them to use them for other services and they gave us a discount our first year which puts them a little above average compared to others. After our first year expires this winter, they'll probably be about a 10-15 cents more than the average place, but I'll take that after hearing stories of inferior oil form some other companies. Another bonus is the annual inspections most companies charge up to $100 for is free. Definitely happy with everything.

My expectations were surpassed every single day with Falite brothers. It can be a difficult experience having work done on your home when you're living there, but the level of professionalism and expertise that Joe, Jim, and Matt brought to the worksite was Barr not. Every day they spent several minutes with us walking through the house discussing what they've done and what the plan for the day was. They were very respectful when we needed to take time to make decisions, and gave us a breakdown of what options were available to us. I think this says it all; when the oil tank removal company spilled a little bit of oil on our lawn, Joe pulled me aside and said this: " I wanna show you something. I'm not happy about. Oil spilled on your lawn and I'm really upset about it." When I reassured him that it was fine he responded, " it might be fine for you, but it's not fine for me. "While I'm here, this isn't your house, it's my house, and I take responsibility for everything that happens on the job. And this is unacceptable." I think that's the best way to describing their service, they treat your home like it's their own and do everything in their power to exceed your expectations. 10 out of 10 would recommend Felite Brother for all of your plumbing and HVAC needs.

Was told there would be 2, several hours in was told there would be a third or they could just leave as is and I could reinstall a gas dryer, ended up with 4.

Overall, a great experience - I highly recommend them. I got several quotes and this was not the…read morecheapest one, but I decided to go with them because A. they were most responsive (email, text or phone call, they respond to all), B. they were flexible and agreed to sub-contract my preferred carpenter for the construction pieces, C. the equipment they offered me was better than the competitor, D. they offered information and help with MassSave high-efficiency 0% heat loan and related MassSave rebates. The job was replacing my broken heat system, including backup heat / air handler (inconveniently in my bathroom ceiling) and heat pump / condenser (inconveniently on the roof of my condo complex). The machine is a Bryant Evolution® Variable-Speed Heat Pump Model 288BNV (which is 18 SEER/12.5 EER cooling efficiency and 11 HSPF) and the air handler is 5-speed variable. The new thermostat is the companion Evolution® Connex™ Control. It took a few weeks to get contracts (including sub-contract), MassSave heat loan sorted and schedule the job, but once is started, the heat replacement itself took only 2 full days, including removal of old equipment, crane to reach the roof and electrical. The heat removal / replacement was exactly per the provided schedule. I think there were at least 6 guys working on the heat equipment at various times. The ceiling construction (4 other guys at various times) took a bit longer than I initially expected (1 day demolition of bathroom, as expected, but 3+ days of ceiling reconstruction, which included frame, drywall, plaster, paint and 2 installed metal hatches), but that was my preferred subcontractor and he did a fantastic job. All the people who came to my house were professional and knowledgeable. The preparation and cleanup was a little inconsistent depending on which guy was there; sometimes it was 30 minutes of prep with paper / plastic on all floor (including through the doorway) and cleaning so thorough that it was cleaner than I usually keep it; other times it was a cloth tarp quickly set down with a quick wipedown and sweep at the end (not as clean as I usually keep it), but I appreciate that everyone made an effort to clean the job site at the end of each day. I haven't had the new, efficient system long enough to see an appreciable change in my energy bills (April was slightly less than 2018 April bill, but hard to say if that's just inconsistent weather or the new system), but I can definitely FEEL the difference. I LOVE the new 5-speed fan system, which goes soft if just maintaining a temperature or harder if needing to change multiple degrees (which it can do much quicker than my old system). Also, it's "smart" enough not to put the fan full blast while there's still cold air in the ducts (my old system used to blow cold air when it first turned on and had only one speed). During the project, they handled most of the MassSave heat loan application and also responded quickly to questions, and were able to deal with challenges (like the narrow height of my bathroom ceiling) and changes (e.g., an unrelated plumbing project in the building which had impact on my condensate drainage pipe). They also submitted both MassSave rebates on my behalf. Although I generally like to support smaller businesses, having a larger business for this project, with a dedicated sales person / project manager (Jason Shea) made this project a lot easier for me. Sometimes you get what you pay for, and I think in this case, choosing a more expensive service gave me a much better experience. Also, on a side note, this project involved people of various skin tones and accents; white guys, Brazilian immigrants, they all did a great job - that's what makes America great, a mix of talented, hard-working and diverse people. I would definitely use Cooling Unlimited again and would recommend to anyone in the area who needs heat replacement.

We used Cooling Unlimited to install our heat pumps…read more 1) Cooling Unlimited submitted our Mass Save paperwork incorrectly. After agreeing to complete paperwork for a whole-home rebate, they submitted it as a partial rebate. They were unable to secure our full rebate. After we contacted Mass Save directly, we recovered the full rebate. 2) After the installation, our upstairs heat pump was not operating properly. Cooling Unlimited came out multiple times to inspect the unit and told us it was working adequately. Only after I showed them that the temperature coming out of the upstairs unit was not appropriate did they agree there was an issue. They told us they contacted the manufacturer and ultimately fixed what they described as an issue with the unit. 3) Our upstairs thermostat did not operate correctly after installation. Cooling Unlimited replaced it, but the replacement thermostat still does not measure the temperature correctly. 4) Cooling Unlimited installed a glycol feeder and heat exchanger. Our oil company later told us that the heat exchanger was undersized. We asked Cooling Unlimited to come out and inspect the heat exchanger. Cooling Unlimited then told us they had sent someone from Bosch to our house to inspect the heat exchanger, and that the Bosch technician said it was fine. 5) After all of this, I called Bosch directly. Bosch told me they had no record that Cooling Unlimited had registered our units them and that they had never been contacted from Cooling Unlimited about our units. This made it unclear who Cooling Unlimited had actually contacted when they said they had spoken with the manufacturer. 6) Cooling Unlimited installed incorrectly sized filters in our air handlers and had cut the filters with scissors to make them fit. 7) Cooling Unlimited is now refusing to honor our service contract. We signed a three-year service contract that included annual service. We did not receive service from them in the fall, and they are now saying we cannot receive our annual service because it is spring.
