Description of Work: They arrived the same day I called them. They fixed the problem with the AC/heat, but my husband was outside and they didn't give him a bill. Maybe it was covered under warranty.

Description of Work: Bunn's and Bennett Heating and Air installed a new 3 ton AC system in my house in June of 2013. They offered fair pricing and even were able to provide a 0% interest financing plan via Wells Fargo. The install went very well and the owner and crew were professional and courteous. I replaced an approximately ten year old AC unit that had failed and was leaking Freon. The installers assessed that I did not need new plumbing or ducting to accommodate the new unit. The install went smoothly and the crew cleaned up after themselves, which was appreciated. They even managed to fix an odd drain problem that was causing the original blower drain pan to flood and occasionally overflow. The heating portion of the unit is excellent and is better than what was replaced. The AC portion of the unit works well, but not all the time (see below for more). | |Unfortunately, it appears as though the product that was installed is not able to handle my house to my satisfaction. On hot days (spring, summer) the unit struggles to keep the house comfortable. It manages to do an OK job at reducing the temperature inside compared to out, but it is often still too warm on the hotter days. | |Bunn's and Bennett have been very nice about trying to remedy the situation, but I believe the problem to be something they cannot control (unit quality/capability). The only reason I am giving them a B overall is due to some of their responses to this situation. The first thing they mentioned was that my house has high ceilings and only ridge vent to help alleviate heat in the attic. The next then they mentioned was that my attic gets rather hot in the summer (gee, no kidding). Their solution to my issue was to have me open all the doors in my house so that I get more/better return air. Unfortunately, I can't do that all the time. They also slowed the speed of my blower fan so as to give the air more time to cool before coming out. While that might work ok (air comes out colder), it does the outer bedrooms absolutely no justice when the air pressure is not enough to actually circulate in the room. Also, the placement of my thermostat is not ideal. I used to have an RF thermostat, with the actual temperature sensor inside a remote box I could place anywhere in the house. Unfortunately, B's&B were unable to figure out how to use my RF unit, so they replaced it with another box that is fixed to the original, poor location. This exacerbates the problem when the thermostat reads 72 and the rest of the house is 78 degrees. I was OK with this situation for a while, but I recently spoke with some other contractors and they mentioned that any additional roof ventilation solution I could come up with would not likely lower the temps inside the house and would need frequent repair. | |Bunn's and Bennett AC did a great job of installing my product, but I believe they sold me the wrong product for my house. Backing that up with good intentions is all well and good, but not having a real solution is unfortunate. The price was acceptable at the time (labor was reasonable), but the unit is not worth the price I paid. Therefore I believe them to be a good, hard working individuals, but I cannot honestly recommend them for a new system installation. They likely do a much better job of repair and maintenance (as evidenced by fixing my blower drain problem).

The tech that responded to my call was Richard. He is the most knowledgable tech I have encountered in many years. He systematically worked through diagnostic steps to solve the problem. He was very respectful of our home and of us. He is a master technician and certified in all six areas of HVAC. RARE!!! The company was very responsive to my call. They knew where their techs were and were in contact with them on a constant basis, updating their status and passing along information. Not a fly-by-night operation! I highly recommend Richard for any heating or air conditioning service or installation and recommend Bunn and Bennett without reservation.
Description of Work: Complete inspection of HVAC split pack system to determine why the gas unit was not firing up. Found a lock out...vacuum switch clogged. Cleaned and reamed out the port. Inspected the ducting per my request. Recommended dampers in the ducting to even out the heat/AC distribution.

They reset the pressure switch and replaced the capacitor. Also checked coolant levels in both A/C units. Both men were very professional, courteous and conscientious to clean-up after their work.

Estimator came as scheduled and wrote the estimate on the spot. It was slightly higher than the second estimate I got, but he included an upgraded programmable thermostat and some other extras that the other estimate did not include. He also offered an extended labor warranty for no added cost. There was no pressure to upgrade. The extra features and warranty seemed well worth the marginally higher cost. Estimator was very knowledeable about the Trane systems, and explained in detail the pros/cons of each option. Installers completed installation in one day, and left the property clean. Workmanship seemed good. Estimator returned 2 days later to check on work and to explain how to operate the thermostat.
Description of Work: Installed a 3 ton Trane heat pump system, and removed old system.

I don't have any complaints. Bunn's & Bennett Heating & Air Conditioning is very efficient and easy to get a hold of. Usually when I call they schedule an appointment right away and sometimes they'll come out that same day. They have really good service and I can always rely on them. For the services they give me and how they worked on my furnace it's a pretty fair price for everything that they did. They're excellent and very good people to work with.
Description of Work: I have an annual contract with Bunn's & Bennett Heating & Air Conditioning and they were here earlier this year to do some repair services and they're really good.

Scheduled an appointment with Bunn's and Bennett in the morning, as they were the only company I called that could meet me in the afternoon.

I appreciated the punctuality and communication.

I had an outside heat pump unit fail the evening before the 4th. I called B&B first thing the next day and left a message, knowing it would have to wait until after the holiday. I got a call back early the next morning and we set up a service call for that day. The tech called before arrival, was very professional, and even tolerated my border collie mix wanting to be friends. It turns out the fan motor bearings were shot, and needed a replacement motor. He told me he needed to pick one up and return later in the day. As promised he came back, installed the motor and we had cool air just in time for a comfortable evening. The original unit is very old, and he had to use an after-market motor as replacement which needed adjustments to fit within the mountings of the old unit, (which had to be frustrating) but he did it without complaint. B&B's pricing was a little high for this type of job, but I believe the good service merited the premium. I will definitely be calling them when the old unit comes up for replacement.

After being frustrated when others wouldn''t even return my calls or were two-weeks out during the busy season, two of which on on Angie's List, I contacted Bunn & Bennett. They responded on-site within a day or two (my scheduling). Both were at different rental properties and both were coil issues. Both handled quickly and reasonably priced. The technician made some suggestions to avoid future issues and general maintainence. They will be my first call from now on.
Description of Work: This is the second time I've used them in the past two months. Both were at different rental properties and both were clogged and frozen coil issues.

I had just had a knee surgery and my next door neighbor knocked on my door to say that there was smoke on my outside unit. My neighbor said that he turned it off outside. It was exceptionally cold that night and I hadn’t even turned on my heat here. So, when I called Bunn's & Bennett Heating & Air Conditioning the next morning, they immediately sent someone out here. Then they fixed it for me. I don’t remember the price charged by them, but it was very reasonable. They were very caring about my situation and they were responsive to my needs.
Description of Work: Bunn's & Bennett Heating & Air Conditioning worked on my heat pump in December of 2009. They had to fix the fan on the outside unit since it had come off. Then they extended the drain line since it was backing up or doing something.
