memHi, Thank you for your feedback. I would like to ensure you that we strive to deliver the highest level of service possible to each one of our customers. Unfortunately, it’s very difficult to provide accurate pricing over the phone, especially when a job requires special care, such as yours. We understand that you are looking for the best value and we can assure you that we offer the best value in our services. If you allow us to, we would love to come out to your home and provide you with a thorough evaluation of your project. Regards, The Kalka Heating and Air/ Benjamin Franklin Team

Description of Work: I sent in a detailed review of my dealings with Kalka many months ago. Being so long ago, I don't recall the details, but I do remember that they were honest, prompt, professional, clean and helpful. They also went out of their way to try and get American Home Shield to pay for my very dangerous furnace, but we couldn't prevail. Frank Ishida, homeowner

Description of Work: I called Kalka Heating and Air Conditioning and spoke with Brendan. Together we scheduled a time when a technician would come to my house to review the work required to install an air conditioning system. A confirmation time was also agreed upon. There was no call back at the time agreed upon so I called Kalka back (one hour after I was supposed to receive the confirmation call) and was told by another receptionist that there was a two hour window when a technician would be coming over for to do the estimate but that no one made the call to me when they were supposed to do so. She said that she would follow up and call me back with a status update. I did not hear from her but another person named Juny called to say that their technicians were running late and it would be another two hours before anyone could be here. We have commitments this evening and other companies will be here tomorrow so the window for Kalka to participate has come and gone. If this is any indication of how Kalka operates I would recommend staying away from them completely. Very unprofessional response and follow up. There are too many other good companies out there offering similar services. Kevin you should be ashamed of yourself for allowing this to happen!

Response from Kalka Heating & Air Conditioning Inc
Dear Member, Thank you for your feedback. You can rest assured that your comments will not be dismissed and will be used to improve our customer service. We are sorry to hear that you were unhappy with the communication about your appointment window. As we explained to you over the phone, we have a flexible appointment schedule that is set up with appointment windows. This is best practice for our industry since each appointment is different and times on each job vary due to unanticipated factors (i.e. unexpected repairs, concerns, availability of parts etc). We update customers as soon as we can about their appointment time. We also do our best to follow the notes left on a job summary so that each customer can be taken care of appropriately by anyone in the office. The notes for your job indicated that you would not be home until after 3 PM and that you requested a call to confirm the technician’s arrival time. It was not until 4pm that our Customer Service Representative was able to evaluate how much longer the technician would need at his current job. At this point, we communicated to you that the technician was running behind and could arrive in approximately 2 hours. While this is not ideal, again, this is why we have appointment windows. Furthermore, we offered to reschedule for a time that was more convenient for you. Again, we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience and want to reiterate that we did everything within our power to meet your needs. We wish you the best of luck on your project and hope that you will keep us in mind next time you have a plumbing or heating and air need. Thank you, The Kalka Heating and Air Team

Description of Work: The young man said I needed either to replace the heat exchangers in my furnace or replace the entire furnace due to rust. He showed me some slight rust on the cover of the heat exchangers. I then contacted Service Champions who installed the furnace 9 years ago. The representative did a very thorough inspection: he pulled the heat exchanger out of the furnace to show me there was no rust or degradation and I did not need anything replaced at all. He said the furnace was fine. The Kalka young man did say my air conditioner was fine, but I already knew that since it was only 2 years old. IF I did not get a second opinion, I might have had to fork out $2 to $3,000 on a new furnace when I did not need one or need to replace any parts. I was thinking of calling Kalka myself but I have not gotten around to it yet. So, in conclusion, my experience with your Angie's recommendation was not a good one at all.

Response from Kalka Heating & Air Conditioning Inc
Recently we have implemented a policy of having a field supervisor confirm the diagnosis of a cracked heat exchanger and take pictures of the cracks. We have had 3 similar instances in the past. After our initial diagnosis, a different company has said there are no cracks. So we called a meeting for the Gas Company, the other company, and ourselves at the residence to confirm our findings. In all three cases, we confirmed our diagnosis of the presence of cracks in the heat exchangers. We will be contacting the homeowner to have our field supervisor inspect the furnace in question."
