Heating & A/C - Brian Kirkland State Certified A/C Contractor Since 1990: CAC051519 - 3 Employees - No Subcontractors - NICHE: Honest, Personalized Service - Cost is determined by hourly rate. - Additional Charge for Emergency Service
I'm on day 11 with no working AC. In February 2024 I had ABC install a new air conditioner. Less than 1.5 years later the AC started blowing warm air. On May 21 I called and a technician came out but couldn't fix it. The following day they sent another one who discovered a leak in the refrigerant lines. Since then, I have been given no clear timetable on when this is will be fixed. Each day I get the same speech from the call center saying technicians will be sent out to fix the issue, but nothing ever happens. I have constantly asked for portable units in the meantime but received no reply. One of the technicians mentioned they are severely short staffed, must be an awful company to work for. It's in the mid 90s here in Florida and this is becoming a health issue. It is impossible to actually talk to someone from the company since they use a call center to dispatch technicians. I feel helpless after spending so much on this new AC only for it to not work, and the company does not seem to care at all. STAY AWAY.
Description of Work: Refrigerant lines need replaced, but technicians never arrived during one week to do it.

This review pertains to ABC Air Conditioning based at a home on Georgianaa Street in Largo, not the similarly named ABC Plumbing, Air and Heat in Clearwater. I have had good luck with handyman-type operations in the past, but not this time. Brian K and a helper came out on 7.25.22 when my A/C was only cooling at about 20 percent capacity. Brian checked the freon, found that it was low, and added three pounds from a small tank. He observed some leaking oil, but made minimal attempt to look for a leak or analyze the system. Predictably, the A/C worked a little better for a few hours and reverted to its substandard state. The next day, Brian came back out and noted some freezing in the air handler coils. Again, he made no attempt to evaluate or repair the system. I was simply out $310 from his first visit, while needing to call another repairman and start over. The second repairman was able to find and seal the leak and refill the freon, including the amount Brian charged me for that leaked out. If you're reading this, you probably know that freon is really expensive. Brian spoke knowledgeably about A/C units, and I confirmed that he is licensed in Pinellas County However, I do not feel that he made a good faith effort to solve my problem, and it caused me to throw away $310. I cannot recommend him due to that experience.
Description of Work: Felt ripped off

Tammer C.from ABC was professional, patient,KNOWLEDGEABLE,courteous and a very pleasant person. It was very refreshing to not feel that I had to stand over his head because I felt comfortable safe and I knew that I had a very knowledgeable employee in my home. Thank u Tammer and ABC for the very fine job that you did and it was also nice that's the bill was very reasonable
Description of Work: I have a magic pack air conditioning/ heating unit and I was not receiving any cold air. Tammer C.602 came out from ABC and took on the challenge of repairing my unit.What most technicians would have passed up he saw as a challenge and utilized his 17years of experience and got the job done perfectly. I am eternally grateful to him and to ABC for their outstanding employees.

They advertised to service the equipment for about $57 and by the time they left, they had billed me for over $3,000. It looked to me like every price they listed was about 5 times as much as it should be. They weren't discourteous and they were professional, but I felt as though it was a bait and switch operation. They also left me a pamphlet and I had lost it, so I requested another one and they never sent it.
Description of Work: They were revising some work in my AC equipment.

He made us feel as though we were a priority, even though I'm sure he had other calls. Since we were without AC, and we have pets - he had a sense of urgency about the repair that we really appreciated.
Description of Work: We've used ABC Air Conditioning many times over the past 10 years, and we've always been impressed. Brian is very experienced, knowledgeable, and thorough. He took his time and explained to me what he was doing. He showed up on time and was extremely professional. Highly recommend for his honesty, willingness to explain what he was doing to a layman, and to find and fix the problem instead of just telling me to replace the system. We will continue to use ABC Air Conditioning in the future.
