Terrible experience. We were having issues with our old metal duct work sweating so we wanted it all replaced. They replaced only 80 percent of the ductwork, leaving a foot or two of old, uninsulated metal ductwork at the vent ends. They did this to half the vents! One vent had to closed off because it would sweat so bad, three others drip. We filed a claim on BBB and they shrugged it off and seems they are no longer BBB accredited, with no record of my complaint. Their excuse was that the A/C unit is too big for the house. They DID NOT replace all the ducting. That was the job. I also came home early from work to find them installing a lower R-Value product ducting than what we paid for. Stay away from this company.

We are A+ Rated with the BBB. We don't pay the BBB, and because of that we have never been "accreddited". I feel bad that the customer is having the issues. I always try to put myself in another's shoes when dealing with these type of situations. I always discuss the replacement of the round registers and boots with the homeowner when looking at the work to be proposed. Most choose not to replace them with no issues. This was discussed with the homeowner prior to the work being done. The price to replace the duct system of only $3200 is proof of that. Replacing the existing round registers and round boots was discussed at the time of the walk through for the proposal. I told the homeowner that this would involve a considerable higher price in additional labor and materials to complete and he would also have to have a plaster repair done around each replaced boot/register and I could offer that option. He chose to stay with the existing round registers. The home has a 3 ton system (installed by another vendor) that is based on manual j load calculation, too large for their 1299 square foot home. I completed a manual j heat load calculation for the home in 2012 that came out to right a 2 tons and slightly more if the rear porch was enclosed per a discussion with the homeowner. Systems that are too large are a major contributing factor to humidity and sweating issues. I feel bad that there are issues. The cost of the job when initially proposed would have been much more if the round registers and boots were replaced and there may have been no issues if the home had a smaller ac system. There is no resolution to this as long as the customer has not wanted to pay for the added value of having the round register boots/registers replaced and the plaster repaired. We are both good honest people buy sadly, I guess this is one of those rare cases where we couldn't meet in the middle and are just going to have to agree to disagree. A first in our 38 years in business.

I was not happy with the quality of their work. The only reason we used them was because we found them at Home Depot but now they're using somebody else. I had them put a new unit in and added the duct work. I called them back and said I put vents in for a new room over the garage, that we specifically had this new unit re-ducted for. I said I've got 2 in and 1 out in that room and the temperature of that room is still not what it should be. It is hot and not cooling. Isn't there something you can do? And their comment was no, it is what it is. I thought they would try to find out why with all this new duct work in this room wasn't cooling like it should, but they didn't. If I hire somebody, and at least they try to find a solution to my problem, then I give them credit for trying. These guys didn't even try.

So far, not so good. I had the system installed in February. I have had Deck-Aire back a few times but the main problem still exists. The unit runs on high most of the time. Thermostat is set between 76-78 and the thermostat will hang at 81-83 during the day. I have had no issues with my supply vents until this Trane unit has been installed. Now I have moisture dripping from the vent. You would think they would be concerned of mold starting to grow with this moisture. Have been trying to get them out here for a month to fix. They were supposed to show on June 26 and of course they were a no show with no phone call. They expect you to work around their schedule and instead of phone calls, they send an email with a date instead of a phone call. I usually end up calling only to have messages taken and another email comes to my inbox. One of the visits, they said the hole for my intake needs to be larger. Worker comes (in a bad mood that day) makes the hole bigger and then carelessly mastics the grate to the wall. I will never get the grate off. When I called about the dining room vent, it turned out that the guy who ran the wire for the thermostat must have kicked it loose. Now I have another vent that is dripping water and they take their time to come repair. I have used Deck-Aire for years and always had great service. Now they have other people managing the office and the service has gone downhill. I have had them install five units for me. This last one is a dud and I can't get it resolved. Probably last time I will use Deck-Aire.

Great service and lowest cost. I compared against 3 other quotes. Dave provided the lowest cost. Installation was done on time as scheduled. I was disappointed that the enclosure for the 5" media filter was a metal box versus the high quality composite enclosure for the rest of the air handler. I expected Trane to have provided this option with a composite enclosure.

The installed a large unit for us, then they came back to work on a smaller unit. Fix worked for a week then crapped out. Came out and the fuse had jarred loose on the unit they had just fixed. $150 charge to plug it back in. Come on. Then the tech comes out today to work on the unit under warranty. Wasn't that unit. Charged us a 100 to show up and look at it. Tech reeked of booze. Don't know if he was hungover or drunk. Stay away from these guys. Called the office manager who didn't really seem to care. .....someone responded that "we aren't their customer and they want the review taken down." If you would like to see invoices with our address and work performed on it I would be happy to post. They also came out again yesterday to add a GFI to our unit they installed 5 months ago so it could finally pass inspection. Really thorough there guys. Like I said, if you would like bills as proof that they did work for us, i would be happy to post pictures.

He didn't mind me watching and asking questions about pump pressure and other things. The previous company had overfilled it and had to bleed off some on a second visit. He was friendly and understanding that I wanted to be informed because of my previous bad experience with the other company.
Description of Work: I would definitely use Deck-Aire again. The office staff was very helpful and set up the appointment right away. They came the day after I called. The woman was straight forward and friendly. So was the service person. He came at the designated time and had years of experience. All in all a great experience. He did the general items listed for the $59.00 special for 30 minutes diagnostics and work. But he also needed to do a very thorough clean of the drain line and a few extras (I paid $45 for that). The drain had been cleaned previously by another company but the drain value didn't seem to be completely clear. Also he noticed my special my hepa filter was very clogged. He was right. The previous company had kept telling me it was in great shape. It even had developed holes. Not a good thing. I was there when he removed it from the air handler and I recognized it as my old filter. He told me I could get replacement filters locally cheaper on my own, so that's what I did.

They are easy, I call them, and they come out right away. I haven't had any negative issues, it has always been positive. I have used them for about 3 years. I used one before and did not have a good experience. They came out on a Saturday, and even gave us a loaner window AC to use while we waited for the part ordered. They are awesome.

Thank you for the great review. It is always nice to be recognized for the way we do our job and a customer that understands how hard it is to provide this type of service consistently for over 30 years. We don't solicit our customers for reviews like most of the companies with hundreds of reviews which makes us appreciate each review a little more. Thank you for trusting Deck-Aire year after year.

Thank you for the great review. We greatly appreciate your A rating for the services we provided. I see you gave us a B on price which is occasionally where we get a B grade as it is difficult to provide low price and top quality at the same time. We do however find that when you compare us apples to apple with our competition we are usually a litte lower in price because of our extremely low overhead and the fact that we do not have commissioned sales people like many of our competitors. Thank you again for using Deck-Aire and The awesome "A" rating.

OK, no Freon R22 needed. Seemed to be ready to go for the Summer of 2014 This lasted until approx. October of 2014, at which time our A/C stopped cooling properly. Another call to Deck Aire resulted in quite a large bill for Freon and Labor, NOTE": I did NOT hire Deck Aire in October THROUGH Angie's List.

Thank you for the review. We always strive for an A rating with our customers. Sometimes this is difficult when you are dealing with an older system. Repairs on an older system like yours are usually a band-aid. We gave you a price 2 years ago to change the system as we feared that your system was headed for repeat repairs. We always ask you to put yourself in our shoes when you are upset about having to repair an older system. We must as a business charge for the repairs to these systems as there is no guarantee that an older system will not fail again. Our government has driven the cost of refrigerant up to the point that putting in a freon is no longer a minimal expense. I don't mind you being upset about the cost of repairs as I am never exited about paying for repairs on anything no matter how old it is. When you are finally ready ro replace that system please let me know and I can make sure we take into account the repair dollars you have spent.Thank you again.

Chuck was my service technician. He was very knowledgeable and polite. He helped me to diagnose the loud noise that my A/C condenser was making. Chuck let me know the next step would be to replace the coils inside the unit. There was no pressure to purchase an entire new system, which was my concern. Chuck answered all my questions and tried several different things to troubleshoot the problem. If the compressor turn out to be shot, I will be using Deck-Aire to install a new system.

My home had two Tempstar Heat Pump systems from the builder. The systems were 10 years old and slowly dying. I did not want to spend more money on repairs, so it was time to invest in new heat pumps. After researching different brands, my top choices were Trane and American Standard, which are owned by the same parent company and share common components. These brands had top ratings for reliability on Consumer Reports. I also wanted a 2-stage compressor for the main system for improved humidity control and temperature regulation. I used Angies List to identify several installation companies with good ratings, and received quotes from 3 vendors. I selected Deckaire for several reasons: Value: I wanted a premium brand and knew it would have greater cost. Deckaire?s proposal provided better equipment for lower prices compared to the other vendors. I did a side-by-side comparison with the other vendors and Deckaire had them beat. Deckaire?s quote was 30% less than one of the other vendors! Thoroughness: The owner of Deckaire, Dave Decker, spent an hour inspecting my home before providing the quote. He even inspected the ductwork in the attic on a hot afternoon in July. His quote was very detailed and identified specific model numbers and installation details. He listened to my requirements and provided a menu of options so I could compare features vs costs. I had confidence in the proposal. Installation for the 2 heat pump systems required 2 days. It was a complete replacement of the existing systems that included the condenser, air handler, thermostat, copper lines, control lines and drain lines (everything except ductwork). The main air handler was larger than the existing unit and required carpentry work to fit. They also reconfigured the main duct distribution box to improve circulation. The installation team was courteous and professional, and they accommodated some special requests. For example, I had previous issues (leaks) with the copper lines in the underground conduit and requested re-routing the new copper lines through the attic. No problem. They also installed a paintable cover over the copper lines running up the exterior wall. The team worked into the early evening on each day to ensure we had a functional systems for nighttime. This was a big investment and I feel Deckaire provided great value. I will continue to us Deckaire for future services.

We bought this house two years ago, and it was supposed to have had "brand new" AC units, but they had never functioned properly. Always freezing up, losing coolant, etc. I had another local company come out last year to repair them. $500 later, the problems persisted. I called Deck-Aire because both units were freezing up again. They found the problem in the coils, but the parts were on back order. They loaned me three window units, the technician even installed them for me. When the parts came in a few days later, they repaired the units and sent the bill to the manufacturer under the factory warranty that I didn't even know existed. I would HIGHLY recommend this company to all of my friends and family.

I bought a "deal" for a service call. I was able to immediately use it when I discovered the AC wasn't blowing any air. I had never used this company and I still can't believe the service they provided. I called early in the day, a service person came over within an hour. He figured out the problem was a broken blower motor. Now it was noon time. By 5:00 that afternoon they had located the part and installed it. All the time being aware of cost. Very reasonable. The staff and service person were a delight to work with, friendly, competent and professional. I had full confidence in the service person. In the past I have had AC people out here who were so uncertain about the problem, etc that I was always worried they could do the job. At times that worry was warranted. I can't say enough positive things about Deck-Aire. I bought my AC from Able Air and I had so many problems from the beginning. Not happy with how problems were resolved. Eventually lost confidence in them. Happy I found Deck-Aire.
