He arrived about an hour early due to cancelled appointment. He did all that was advertised and also explained in detail the work being done. Very pleasant and did not try to sell me anything extra.

They were great and I'll probably hire them again. The technician was friendly and professional. He was thorough about the installation of the thermostat; he was well versed in how it works. He is very good about knowing what was going on with my thermostat. He said it works fine and he showed me how it works, what are the indications that need service. He is great. I have no complains.
Description of Work: I've used the big deal of Central Heating & Air. They cleaned, checked and inspected my furnace. They also installed a thermostat. They also gave me an estimate for some other work.

The original deal work didn’t go very well. The first guy that came out did poorly. The guy who came out afterward did a great job. We had him do some repair work and he found some problems deep under the house. The quality of the workmanship of the new guy was great. However, the customer service for the salesman has been very spotty. So when you can get them, the quality of work is very, very good, but communication is hard. However, the pricing is very fair and I got more than I expected.
Description of Work: I bought a deal for $159 for an early bird furnace tune-up and duct inspection.

That went fine and they checked all the parts of the furnace. He did maintenance and did what the deal stated. Everything worked out fine. He noticed that the air filter needed to be changed. He also gave us a quote in-case we wanted to replace the heater.

The provider was able to quickly schedule my appointment and showed up right on time. The service was performed quickly and thoroughly, and most of the steps were explained to me in detail. The filter was very clogged and the serviceman cleaned it but told me I should get a replacement filter within the month. It is a rather odd size so if I am unable to find it at Home Depot, they can certainly order me a box. I was very impressed and feel quite a bit better about the state of my heating system.
Description of Work: Inspected my heating system.

No service was performed, but I must share that Central Heating & Air (Frank H.) was quick to respond to my email for more information re: an Angie's List Big Deal I currently see available (11/6/14) for $69 for 22 pt. inspection for furnace inspection & cleaning. Frank was very professional and helpful in his email answer when I asked about electro-static furnace filters. Additionally, he kindly informed me that while I was outside the service area for the Angie's List Big Deal, he can still service my area for a service call in the future if needed. I thank him for the prompt and courteous information.

Provider was not available on the two days I booked the home visit, although Angie's List itself confirmed with me that the times were available. Provider was prompt in contacting me. Angie's List did not realize that Santa Cruz is NOT in the Provider's service area, much too far to the company to drive for this kind of furnace service, and the List should NOT have included Santa Cruz in the territory the Provider's service was marketed to, my home is too far away. Please refund my payment asap. Thanks

The employees were prompt, courteous and helpful. Everything was handled professionally, from the first on-site check to the completion of the actual installation of the system, which was finished on schedule. They made sure it was operating properly before we got the payment taken care of. Aug. 4, 2014: We have been using the system now for about 3 weeks, and it continues to function very well.
Description of Work: Installed a mini-split system in my home-office to provide both cooling and heating capacity in an add-on room not covered by our existing central air and heating system.

He went in the basement where the furnace is located and I didn't go with him. He went over the furnace and told me that under the was wet. There was no explanation as to why it was wet which I'm sure is not his problem. That is up to the homeowner. I have since done other work that should correct the problem will wait for a heavy rain to see is this is still wet in that spot. He was finished in about 1 !/2 hours to 2 hours.
Description of Work: cleaned the vents and furnace . He did a wonderful job. He was in and out promptly.
