Bill was great. He provided some great tips (such as type of filter to use, type of vent covers to maximize air flow, and size of AC unit for our home) to help maximize our old AC Unit to save some money on our electricity during the hot months. He is courteous and very knowledgeable about his industry. He did not pressure us in buying a new AC unit since ours was 17 years old. He gave some good recommendations about the size and cost for a new AC unit in the future. I can see why a lot of people like his company and has had a great rating on Angie's List. Thanks Bill and Cheryl for your professionalism. I would definitely use your company again!

Bill was a pleasure to work with. Scheduling was easy. Bill arrived on time. He had all the materials, explained what he was doing and gave me an honest advise. Quickly recharged my system and gave me some hints on how to maintain it. I never bother to look for anyone else when my AC is acting up -- I just call Bill. Recommend with no hesitation.

Bill came out to do our estimate and was very informative about our options to replace our a/c condenser unit that hasn't worked in years. He gave us options about what to use to replace the unit from the "extremely green and efficient" unit to the "this will get the job done for a reasonable price" unit. When we scheduled to replace the unit, Richard and Larry were punctual, friendly and very knowledgeable. They arrived right on schedule and had all the necessary equipment to get the job done efficiently. They were sure to protect our home from the dirt and grime associated with the job. They recommended the best air filters for our new system and gave us guidance about duct cleaning. I will absolutely call them again should we need any a/c or heating work done!!!!

Cool Air Technologies is a great HVAC company to work with. Bill, the owner, came out to complete a routine tune-up on the AC system in the house we just moved into. He was courteous, professional and very detailed in the work he completed. Most importantly, this company approaches their work with honesty and integrity. There was a component in my system that needed replaced which Bill clearly showed me and he completed the needed repair at a reasonable cost. There was no attempt at selling me anything that was not needed despite my system being almost 20 years old. It is also important to mention that Bill eagerly returned to my house the same day to complete something that was forgotten during the original visit. Overall, this is a great company to use for your HVAC repair/maintenance needs.

I have done well with Angie's list recommendations, so I will give as full of a report as I can. Bill is highly responsive in the bidding process, answering all of my questions. His quotations were competitive, and the final bill I received matched the quotation exactly. I chose Cool Air since my research indicated that the efficiency a central air operates at is highly dependent on the manner in which it is installed, and this contractor had very high marks for install quality and service. The first advantage of Cool Air is that they only work one property per day. Richard and Larry were at my property both days at exactly 7:45, ready to go. They work straight through until they are done. In my case, there was a mis-communication about the thermostat they installed, but within 30 minutes Bill had delivered the appropriate unit and they stayed on to install it on the same day. Excellent service. Both Richard and Larry are in their 40's with at least 15 years of experience... so they know what they are doing. All of my installs went very smoothly and I was very impressed with the workmanship. At the end of the install, they very thoroughly went through the operation and maintenance of the unit, watching while they made you actually operate the system to make sure you understood. To best characterize their workmanship, I will give you an example: At the end of the second day, they were wrapping up the ducting job that they had performed. As Richard was coming down the stairs, I handed him my phone and asked him to snap a few pictures. My ducting job essentially looked like a large octopus, with each register receiving it's own duct tapped into the central plenum. There were no splits, tees or y's. Each duct was professionally strapped to the rafters to keep the lines as straight as possible. Please note that I received a fairly generic bid on the ducting. I did not receive the 'deluxe install'. The method of the install wasn't specified. The way they installed my ducting, having individual, independent runs is the absolute most efficient way to do it. This method will result in the most balanced distribution of air around the house with the least amount of pressure loss due to kinks, splits and bends. It is also the most expensive way to do it.. since this method uses the longest linear feet of ducting. (this is why other contractors split the lines... to save duct length and thus save money). So basically Cool Air Tech used the most efficient way to do the install, at the greatest cost to them, and if I hadn't asked them to snap some pictures, I never would have known. Also, I checked the actual ducting they were using, and it was very high quality, and also, at R6, was the more expensive of two options from that manufacturer. I don't know about you, but if you are going to drop $10,000 on a central air install, I would rather have people that do that level of work when no one is looking. I would highly recommend this company.
Description of Work: Swap out of 5 Ton Central Air with Furnace, upgraded thermostat to wireless, removed and replaced / upgraded all ducting, and replaced 4 registers.

Bill came out as soon as we needed him. Recommended that we change out unit because of age, but respected our decision to make the repair. I anticipate that within the next 12 months we will call Bill to replace our unit. We have worked with Bill many times over the past several years and find him honest, fair and responsive. I would recommend him to anyone and have.

Bill, the owner, and his lead installer, Larry were on time to the initial quote meeting. They were informative and knowledgeable. We agreed to a fixed price. And he came down some after I offered to pay with a cashier's check to save him some credit card fees. So, he is workable on the price. They subcontracted asbestos removal of attic ducting. The subcontractor was good. Bill pulled permits for everything and fronted those costs. The entire job was done as spec'd, and on-time. Larry and his co-worker, Richard, were friendly. They took care of my house and showed respect throughout the job. We are enjoying cool air now. We are happy with the job and the results. The price was a little higher than we originally planned for the project, but they did a lot, and I guess you get what you pay for. We are looking forward to lower electric bills. You won't be disappointed with this outfit.
Description of Work: Replaced my furnace and A/C systems, installed new registers throughout, insulated and sound-proofed the cold air return, installed a new thermostat, removed asbestos duct work in the attic, replaced the attic ducting with new, re-wrapped a duct with insulation that ran the width of my garage, and installed an attic exhaust fan with an accessible shut-off switch, if we needed to shut it off for any reason.

They were excellent. They did a really good job. They actually commentated a better job than what we were expecting. Two workers came out to do the service. They completed the job about an-hour or an-hour-and-a-half. They were very friendly and knowledgeable. They were very prompt; they showed up when they said they would. I actually made a note to remember them for the future because they were that good.
Description of Work: We have used Cool Air Technologies. We had a problem with our heater. It was not firing up and they isolated the CU very rapidly and then, they actually effected a couple of repairs that they did not necessarily need to do. They said that they saw things that needed doing so they did that as well.

Ref: the above but in both cases Bill was on time, professional, friendly, and most importantly honest about the repairs/improvements needed. In the first experience above the first a/c tech was obviously on commission because he suggested some very expensive repairs including a new compressor. Bill came out and inspected and said the a/c unit was old but still functioning well. In the second case re: the furnace, he did some minor "fixes" to make the furnace more efficient and even suggested ways I could save money. In both cases he was very honest and saved me money.
Description of Work: Experience #1: A couple of years ago I had a a/c technician come out from one of the major hardware stores who gave me an estimate to fix my a/c for about $3,000. Bill from Cool Air Technologies came out said the a/c was still performing well and was OK for the foreseeable future. Cost $89 Experience #2: Furnace did not seem to be performing properly. Bill came out inspected, adjusted vents suggested new filter. Cost $100. Experience

They were really booked up and didn't have an opening until after the Holiday but the squeezed me in which I really appreciated! They were friendly, clean, informative and fixed loose wires and had my Heater working in no time. They only charged me for the service call which was nice. They also educated me as to what needed to be fixed with the Unit soon and that I can expect the Unit to need to be replaced (as it's very old) soon. We will definitely call them back when that time comes. I was very happy with everything!

Heater broke; tried to get same day appointment with various repair companies, to no avail. Cool Air Technologies, got me same day appointment which made me very happy. They arrived exactly at 10 am, as agreed and repaired my unit successfully. Very professional, friendly and helpful. The cost of repair was very reasonable. They noticed that my thermostat on the wall was loose and fixed it without me even asking them. I highly recommend this company and will use them again for my upcoming air condition tune up.

Of course we waited until it finally got cold to turn on the heater, and it would not turn on. I sent an email on Sunday via Angies List and was called back at 9:30 Monday morning. By 10:50 they were at my door! I was very pleased with this quick response - which was unexpected because I know they must have gotten tons of calls. The thermostat was a bit pricey, and $20 had to be added on because the footprint was smaller than my existing thermostat, and it would have needed touch-up paint. (and I didn't have any). So the thermostat price was $195. I thought that was a bit overpriced for a $50 thermostat, but it's done and I have heat and I'm happy. They had to mess with the heater to get it to work. Hard for me to understand exactly what they did, but they were here for an hour working on it, and then testing the system to make sure everything worked properly before they left. They also removed my filters so that I could replace them, which was a nice touch as they are in the ceiling - kind of a pain for me to get at them. There were two guys who came out, one was the owner, both nice guys and very polite. The total bill was $230 including the $20 AL member discount. UPDATE: Two weeks after they came in and "fixed" our heater, it stopped working again. I called them back and they came out and wanted $500 to replace the circuit board. I said I'd have to wait and discuss this with my husband. We were able to buy the circuit board online for $125 and it was easy to install ourselves. These guys are very nice and responsive, but I think their fees are too high. It took my husband, (who is handy but had never done this type of repair before) 20 minutes. I'm sure it would have taken the repair man less than that, and he probably was able to purchase the part at wholesale. So basically around $400+ an hour for repair?????
