Smooth, efficient, clean, on time! Terry and his team at True Cool are the best crew we've ever seen. They're clean, professional, friendly, efficient, and get the job done right. Terry is a perfectionist! We are so lucky we found him. We highly recommend True Cool AC to anyone that wants an honest, professional company to do a competent and correct job.
Description of Work: Let me start by saying that out of the 6 different AC companies that came to our house, Terry at True Cool AC was the ONLY ONE to do a 'Manual J' calculation for our whole house. (It's called a Heat Load, for every room in the house). He has such integrity, that he wouldn't even consider giving us a quote unless he did a Heat Load calculation First! He went in every room, the attic, the garage, and the outside perimeter, (because he had to take into consideration the exterior walls, the width of the eaves and the direction of the sun during the hottest part of the day, among many other things). He measured, calculated and plotted everything out. He drew up 3 different estimates for us, based on 3 different systems, to offer us choices. He got the job because he knew what he was doing, he explained everything to us, he rose to the challenge of meeting my husbands requirements for the AC unit, and he did it while I was shaking my head the whole time and saying, "No, this isn't going to work." Did he make a believer out of me! I've never seen anyone do a job so professionally, accurately and with such honesty, competence and care. We bought an American Standard HVAC system, with a 10 year Warranty, from Terry at True Cool. (American Standard and Trane are the same company). We needed a new AC unit that could offer Zoning, (adjustable cooling for different rooms/areas in the house). We had an 11 year old Trane (purchased from a different company), that needed to be replaced. It was one of those 'hanging from the garage ceiling' set-ups, (which is the absolute WORST place in the world for an AC unit in S Florida!) So this time we decided to get the best solution we could, plus get the AC unit off the ceiling and onto the floor. I was planning on building an AC closet in the house because I didn't want it in the garage again, but Terry showed us a new insulated exterior that does not sweat, even in the garage on a hot day. He was 100% correct! Our new American Standard AC does not sweat in the garage! Since my husband wanted a unit that could offer zoning, and since I said NO to getting a 'mini-split' system, Terry was able to configure a new system of split ducting in the attic, each duct (zone) is controlled by a separate thermostat, so we have 3 thermostats, for our 3 zones. It's perfect! We can adjust our zones to be any temperature, depending on where we want to be in the house. Instead of cooling the whole house 24/7, we can control the temp. during the night and day, to suit our comfort, and not pay FPL a fortune each month, for cooling the entire house to a set temperature, when it's not needed. But even when I do turn everything down low, this system is so efficient and quiet, our electric bill has barely been affected. I LOVE this system! We had 2 extra returns ducted into the attic/bedroom ceilings, to accommodate the zoning. The AC unit has a built in de-humidifier. We have never been more comfortable in our house. It's never too cold, too hot or humid. It's super quiet, and best of all, our $400.00+ electric bills went down to $150.00-$200.00. What's not to love about that?! Terry's crew was excellent too. Everyone was clean, on time, polite, knew what to do and how to do it. They got the job done, no errors, no mess, and super polite people. Rochelle, the secretary was very nice too. We knew this was going to be costly, (@16K), but after we did the math, including the lowered electric bills, we broke even at 6.66 years. (16K [cost of AC], divided by $200.00, [electric per month] = 80 months, or 6.66 years).
