Thank you for the review. Every now and then on a new install things pop up with equipment on start up or shortly thereafter. This is why I make sure every technician is factory certified and factory trained, that way they know what to do. Many places like using employees with little to no training because they can pay them less and lower the price of the job. In the long run though you end up with systems not installed correctly and lots of failures down the road. Instead we strive to have the proper staff on hand so in the event something does happen, you are not watching an entire crew scratching their heads or worse end up with an inferior installation. We are more than happy to address any equipment problem as that's what we are here for! If you need anything please feel free to call. Jason Ellington

The air conditioning system in my house is a train wreck. I had several other companies out to determine the best way to efficiently cool my house. Ellington provided a solution that, though expensive, would give me the cooling I needed without completely tearing out and rebuilding ductwork. They worked with me financially to allow me to install the systems in two stages. The first stage I commented on earlier, and that just provided the justification to finish the job. The second stage involved installing a mini-split system in four rooms. One of the rooms has no outside wall, and that posed serious problems. Ellington personnel (Dolph, Steve and Leo) worked together and determined a way to install the system quickly and they were able to do the job with minimum cuts/holes to the house. They removed the old ductwork and provided me with a small crawl space/storage space where there was none before. They had to cut a hole in the hallway ceiling and they did an outstanding carpentry job in fashioning a scuttle hatch for future use. They kept me informed at all stages and offered me many suggestions along the way. They kept the area clean while my grandson was around. All in all, they were the most professional crew I have had visit my house, period. The work was done well within their allotted time (three days to do the work, it took them two). I can't say enough about how well they did their job. And the system they provided is absolutely fantastic.

John Page is a gem and really knows his product. He sold us on Trane's best XL 20i heat pump with two compressors. We also had all ductwork cleaned and sanitized and hed them install a UV air purifier. We have had virtually no sickness this season (yet) even with two grandkids living with us, bringing home their daily dose of germs from school. The crew showed up on time, worked long hours to do all they had promised, cleaned everything inside and out, left no trash, were courteous, efficient and professional. We had other quotes from Trane dealers, and all seemed professional. We chose Ellington because they are large enough to provide 24 hour service and a crew that could complete the job quickly, although others promised one-day service. They cleaned all duct work including dryer (for a cost), but I thing it was worth it. We have noticed a vast improvement in our dryer's ability to get clothes dry the first time around. The only qualification is the price. From $2000 17 years ago to about $10,000 for a heat pump today (even with incentives like FPL) seems a big jump, but probably in line with inflation. We appreciated the deal of 0% financing so we could afford this. Now for the roof...

I was very pleased to see you submitted a review and included some feedback on duct cleaning and the uv air purifier. For those concerned with air quality the uv air purifier & duct cleaning are two great products that work! Ours is not smoke and mirrors like so many products and / or companies on the market today. I have one in my home as well and can tell a real difference. We have two dogs and after coming home from an extended period you don't walk in and smell the dog odor anymore. Thank you for your purchase and choosing our company to be your service provider. If you need anything feel free to let us know! Best regards, Jason Ellington

The service technician called ahead to let me know he would be arriving earlier than the time window stated when the appointment was set. Again, the technician called in advance and verified it would be okay to come early. The technician was knowledgeable about the a/c system (outdoor/indoor units) and identified concerns with respect to the amount of Temperature Differential, subcooling, Superheat measurements were not nominal. Identified Motor/Blade was leaking, the contactors condition needed work, etc. All items that were easily repairable. The Technician left everything in good clean condition. ***Update 3/11/2014, I had the Field Charger replaced and still have the blinking default lights. Jason Ellington reached out to me personally on 12/18/13 after the original service date. I was able to speak with him for a good 1/2 hour to explain my concern that the part recommended being changed did not clear the lights. Jason was knowledgeable and quick to help me resolve the issue by working directly with Trane to get the correct parts. I could not have asked for better customer service. While I am only having issues with Trane equipment I appreciate Ellington AC and Heat dealing with the part manufacturer to help bring my system back online.
Description of Work: Technician arrived, performed diagnostics of my a/c unit (both inside and outside) and provided a report of preventative maintenance services that will help keep my system running to maximize its service life. The technician recommended the Trane Clean Effects Field Charger be replaced from visible corrosion. The technician tried resetting the fault codes but was unable to do so do to the field charger needing replacements.

We take each & every review very serious. I read each one to ensure we are exceeding peoples' expectations. After reading the review I did the appropriate research and called the customer to inquire as to if the unit was repaired to his/her satisfaction and what can I do to ensure they are 100% satisfied, because in the end for me that is what I want, regardless of what we need to do as a company I want a satisfied customer. After a few phone calls and a voice mail to the customer (leaving my cell phone number), no return call was placed to me to even try to figure out what the complaint was about and if it was rectified. Also part numbers aren't listed on the Clean Effects only the model and serial number are. All service providers are required to contact Trane to get an actual replacement part number as these change from time to time so Trane is the only party with the current information, hence why we have to contact them for the part number. All equipment part warranty processing is done through Trane which again requires us getting the part number which in this case requires a call back from Trane so we were unable to get the part number on the spot to replace the deficient part. Performing a reset clears any "faults or errors" current on the device but ultimately the defective part needs to be replaced to remedy the situation. We clean the drain on every service call as a courtesy, we didn't charge the customer for it. It is done to prevent a plugged drain line shortly after a service call resulting in a call back. We also go through the entire system to ensure there are no other problems with the equipment as part of our diagnostic fee. Until the part that we did diagnosed as faulty is replaced the lights will continue to "blink". In the event we get an earlier opening we OFFER to go to the customer's home early, we don't demand it. We are here to serve our customers, not the other way around and are privileged that you selected us to be your service provider. Best regards, Jason Ellington

This review is for my experience getting a quote on a Trane air conditioner install. I did not go with them, so cannot comment on the quality of their workmanship. What I can review is my experience with their salesman. I say salesman because unlike the other companies I talked to, the person Ellington sent to me was clearly there to get the most money he could. He had a slick book full of pictures, complaints about other companies, and a one size fits all pricing scheme. I had already made up my mind that I was going to go with Trane's top system, the XL20, but not with all the bells and whistles offered. I was given a price, already prepared in his book, for Trane's top system with additions such as their top thermostat which connects to the internet, among others. I know for a fact that this is much more expensive than what I was looking for. I also did not want the top air handler that uses digital signals, another significant cost factor. The price he gave me was at least $1000 over what I got from others for what I wanted. When I asked how much the price was without the extra things I did not want, I was floored that this salesman said the price was the same, regardless of options. He even said this with a straight face as if it was a benefit! I wasn't born yesterday and this blatant attempt to upsell me smacked of dishonesty in this company, so much so that they were eliminated almost immediately from consideration. Like I said, I can't speak to their workmanship since I did not use them. However, I would encourage anyone considering them to shop around. I did and found a better price for exactly what I wanted. UPDATE IN RESPONSE TO JASON ELLINGTON I had asked specifically about the TAM7 and your person did not say Ellington wouldn't install it. He said the price was the same. Yes the TAM8 allows for finer adjustments but the TAM7 is adjustable. I researched this pretty thoroughly and had made the decision that the difference to me was not worth the extra cost. I now have two XL20i's with TAM7 and am happy with both of these. Also, I did not care for the digital thermostat that communicates with the internet but was offered no price break with the simpler one that still controls humidity.

After reading your review I would first like to apologize to you for what seems to be either a.) a huge misunderstanding or b.) we did not inform you properly of your choices. I went back and researched your quote. What we provided a quote was a Trane XL20i just as you mentioned. As you stated this is the system you were most likely to choose based on your research. It seems like the "extra things" you referred to are items recommended by the manufacture (not us) to install. One of the items you specifically mention is the "digital" air handler. It is a TAM8 air handler and designed to work specifically with the XL20i. The only system the TAM8 works with is the XL20i, that is what it was designed for. What you ended up purchasing was a TAM7 air handler which is quite a bit cheaper and you loose some functions on the XL20i such as enhanced dehumidification, which in my opinion is one of the most important benefits of the XL20i here in Florida since our humidity is so high year round. There are ways to cut corners and use other equipment choices that provide the necessary cooling but don't provide all of the benefits of the system you purchased. We choose not to employ these tactics since once someone realizes what they did get (or didn't get in your case) they are usually dissatisfied with the company. For example, the lower you can get humidity inside the home the lower your chances of experiencing mold, so as you can see humidity removal is key. If for some reason you did realize the difference in the air handlers and did want to defeature the XL20i then the replacement specialist was correct in informing you we won't install a TAM7 on a XL20i. It is not the intended air handler for that condenser, it was only ever designed as an interim unit (while the TAM8 was in production), not a long term unit to be used. The TAM7 is designed for the XL18i. When a TAM7 is used you have to rewire the entire wire harness in the XL20i to even get the system to work. In reference to the fixed pricing in our "book". We do use fixed pricing, we believe everyone should get the same price regardless of what house they live in or where they live. Another words someone in our company can not come to your home and "prejudge" you just to add to the estimate and fatten their wallet. Our replacement specialist actually aren't salesman they all have been a technician at some point and time in their career and been fully trained in installations. They attend over 100 training hours per year to ensure they have the necessary knowledge & training to choose the right application of system for your home. I apologized because I feel bad you had a poor experience, I would offer you your money back but in this case everything we have done was free. I believe with a little more communication on our end of explaining why that air handler was important along with why those other items were necessary could have prevented this poor review. Electing to remove those items could have lowered your estimate by closer to $1500 but in the end you would have a system that can't perform to its capabilities. You could have accomplished the same thing by choosing the XL18i instead. Sorry it didn't work out but I do thank you for your review as it helps us to reflect on experiences with customers and offers the opportunity to improve. Best regards, Jason Ellington
