This company has no honesty or integrity. Tropic Air came to my Condo building to change out my neighbor’s A/C compressor but started to change MINE out instead! Do the RIGHT THING WHEN YOU MAKE A MISTAKE! Confess to the customer and fix your mistake! Stay away from this place! The repair cost me $720.00 with another company, and my Unit initially was not even broken. If I could give less than 1 star I would.
Description of Work: Suttner Heating and Cooling repaired the damage caused by Tropic Air.

The receptionist (?) explained the service charge fee on the phone and said she could have a tech out that day. She called to let me know they were on the way. They found no problems with the unit and offered suggestions of other possible causes other than the A/C. I found them to be thorough, professional, and friendly.
Description of Work: We sometimes smelled burning wire when air kicked on. Called Tropic for a service call to check wiring.

I was very Satisfied with the quick service provided and reasonable rate charged, and to have the home cool down again as i do not like the heat and neither does my dog! I would recommend them and i would use them again.
Description of Work: I had Tropic Air come to my house on for a service call on a Saturday as the temperature in my house went up to 85 degrees. They were here on a timely manner and they don't charge overtime. They immediately found the problem and had the part to fix the unit on their truck. There prices are fair and the Service technician was very informative. I will use them again and I highly recommend them !

It went outstanding! We couldn't ask for better. We had an old unit and our bills were sky high. We are saving money every month now with our new air conditioner!! They did a fantastic job for a great price. They came and installed it in a super fast time. We couldn't be happier. The owner and tech we had were friendly and very professional. I promise you will be happy with their products and service.
Description of Work: They cleaned ducts and put in a new air conditioner.

As I said above, highly recommended these guys. They know what they're doing.
Description of Work: The service technician came out late at night my unit was not turning on and it was very humid. He had repaired my unit and he had explained what he had done very professional. What a nice young man. I would recommend tropic air to anyone who would want an honest opinion, and a great deal.

First: a year ago I came home to a house that was 97% on a Friday evening. In less than 2 hours they were working on the unit and had it running before night fell! When it happened again this year, I called and they saved me a service call by diagnosing over the phone by my description - NO one does that!! I (not them) suggested that it was time for a new unit! We made all the arrangements, they allowed me time to research online what I was getting and by 8:00 that evening it was scheduled to be put in the NEXT morning!! By noon, I had air up and running.' The owner of the company came by to check on the work, the installers were skilled, respectful and so helpful. This is the ONLY AC company I will ever use.

We had a very serious incident with this company. In 2007, the a/me technician was here to do the routine cleaning of our air conditioner and furnace. He discovered black mold, which is a very toxic substance. At that time, he recommended a UV Light which he guaranteed would take care of the problem. We had him install it and thought that we were ok. We also had the air ducts cleaned and sanitized. At that time, the young couple who performed the service worked both inside and out. We continued to have our routine service and maintenance. No one ever said a word indicating that there was a problem with our equipment or that we might have a further mold problem. I noticed that we were developing what I thought might be black mold on our roof. We had it cleaned and sure enough, it was. At the same time, it was time for our a/c and furnace maintenance. When the technician came into the house, I asked him if he had checked the furnace for mold. It was packed full of not only black mold, but white mold also (Ken took pictures of it.). Not only that, but this technician advised us that not only had the UV light been installed improperly, but it was the wrong light. It wasn't a strong enough light to handle a 5 ton unit. I should say at this point that I had been diagnosed (in 2006) with a rare and serious disease that literally attacked my lymph system, lungs and heart. I lost a lot of lung function, but my heart muscle was ok at this point (the whole electrical stopped functioning). I was forced to give up a career. In 2009, I began to have serious issues with my heart and by April 2010, it only functioned at 25%. I had a regular pacemaker and this was changed to a pacer and defibrillator. It took me all of 2010 and into this year to begin to get on my feet. This is a disease that may be linked to molds, agricultural products and industrial chemicals. Although I'm not certain this mold was the main cause of my decline, I certainly have my suspicians that it could at least in part been the cause of my health decline. Needless to say, we were extremely upset with this company and will never use them again.
Description of Work: We had a very serious incident with this company. At the time the technician came in to do the regular servicing, I asked him to check to see if he saw any mold (see note below). This was on a Friday afternoon. He explained that he had seen some black and white mold. When Ken (my husband), took pictures, there was a great deal of mold. The technician advised us that he saw a UV Light, but it wasn't the correct light and had been installed improperly. We advised him that it was Tropic-Air who had put in. We were not only in a panic, but very angry. The mold was so bad that the whole furnace had to be replaced and the ducts cleaned. They did do this on Friday, however replaced our unit (a Trane) with a unit that has had terrible reviews and service history. The UV light was replaced with one they assured us was appropriate. They installed this unit at no charge, but then there was the matter of the new furnace. They wanted the full price for it. On Friday evening I attempted to contact the company owner. He never returned our call. My husband was able to reach him on Monday morning. We asked that he come out personally to talk with us. He didn't. The technicians were supposed to be at our house to check everything. The time set was "approximately 3pm." The office called at 4:20p to advise that they would not be there until 6pm. We explained that we were not going to wait any longer, that we had dinner plans. The technician called us at about 5 pm to say he was on his way, but it turned out that he was almost an hour away. We did see him the next day. I had advised that it might be prudent for the owner to come with him, but he didn't. The technician gave us a bill for the full price of the unit, then said he could drop $700. We declined. We are going to have another company come and do a complete evaluation of the work. This whole experience was so stressful, I was afraid I'd be back in the hospital. We will never use them again.
