All that was needed was a $25 part, thus saving $100's of dollars. Good experience. The tech who serviced the furnace found a problem. He took a picture of it and showed me the problem and explained the purpose of the part. The furnace was working correctly within the hour.

We tried a few other local places with less than thrilling and v-e-r-y expensive results. Set on replacing our furnace and central air this spring we started asking friends & family for recommendations while we also started collecting quotes from the more well known local businesses. The most positive reviews we were provided were for Rob Hill. What surprised us was that he also had the most reasonable bid. That is not something you normally experience. In fact we were so surprised we asked around some more as it just seemed to good to be true. Sure enough, every customer we could find had nothing but praise. So we decided to give them a shot. Rob and his son arrived, removed the old units, installed the new ones, and had us up and running in no time. In fact far less time than we expected. They were fast, efficient, and professional. Better yet the units work amazingly well and are very quiet. They even came back a couple weeks later to make sure everything was still running smooth. Rest assured as long as Hill Refrigeration is around, they will be our new HVAC company.

I live in Flandreau, home of Doug and Cheryl Austreim, and I've been a loyal customer for 12 years…read moreor so. I was working in my yard, trimming some bushes and pulling weeds when Austreim's truck No. 39 pulled up. I was filling my wheelbarrow from the street, where I had raked my cut branches and leaves, for easy pick up. The truck blocked my back driveway, the driver got out after a couple minutes in the cab, it looked like he was on his phone. He drug his application hose to the north side of my property and started spraying my yard. I had a garden hose out with a tractor sprinkler in the back yard, which I got out of his way. My back yard is pretty big and he got about half way to my house when we passed each other as I was on my way to dump my wheelbarrow of yard waste. Not a peep out of him. As I was in flip flops, shorts and a tank top, I went back to where I was working on the east side of my property, via the west side of my house, so as to avoid walking in the wet grass where he had just sprayed. I could smell the drift of the yard application as there was a light north breeze. He started spraying just a few feet north of where I was working and I tried to get his attention by yelling "HEY" once, then twice, then a third time. He removed an ear bud from one ear and said, "You don't have to yell." I asked him not to spray where I was still working after I responded with I tried to get your attention three times. He said he was just trying to do his job, which I interpreted as, "get out of my way!" He was going to continue to spray my yard where I told him I didn't want him to, when I told him to leave. He was a rude little prick and acted like me working in my own yard was a huge inconvenience to him. He wouldn't leave so I went to get my cell phone in the house and told him I was calling the cops. I called Austreims' Brookings office instead and reported the incident to a woman on the line. I am done with them! Why can't I give zero stars?
