I called for the yearly AC/ heater check up and before the service guy came, I noticed my heat wouldn't come on. The technician came and quickly diagnosed the problem and explained it well. Then he said he needed to get the part and I suspected there'd be a delay, but no, the part was in and he went to get it and quickly returned and fixed the unit and serviced it. He was very friendly and helpful, but I don't remember his name because I misplaced the receipt. I used my Angie 20 percent off coupon and got over a 100 dollars off the bill. Then, a couple of weeks later, I smelled gas and this time a guy name Jamie came out, and he was very thorough and also very pleasant. We didn't smell gas but he continued to check things out just to make sure. I wasn't charged for the second visit even though he was probably there for over a half hour. He also gave me the name of supervisor to call in case I smelled gas again so he could check it out while the gas smell was still present. He showed a lot of professionalism and concern. Both the guys did. I've been using Sig Cox for years, and they are always top-notch.
Description of Work: My heating system was checked and I had a bad motor of some sort replaced. I'm sorry I can't be more specific but I lost the work order.

Sig Cox bought the company from another company. I had a complaint and they brought the sales manager out. They took pictures of it. The pan was put in at an angle and was not welded. The condensation dripped in the insulation through the wall and buckled the wall. They took some spray and sprayed the overhead. They told me they hoped that had worked out. I went into Sig Cox and spoke directly with the manager. I told him exactly what happened. I had no satisfaction with him as he did not resolve any of the problems.

Response from Sig Cox Heating & Air Conditioning
From a letter sent to this customer. We received no response from the letter but eagerly would like to correct any problems he has. The other company's name was deleted for legal reasons: I received a notice from Angie’s List this weekend about a new report you had left about your experience with Sig Cox Air Conditioning back in 2004-2007. I get notification from Angie’s List when a new report is made so that I can have a chance to make right any problem a customer has. Your experience is not unlike many of our customers had during the unfortunate time we were doing business with ************************** out of Aiken, SC. We lost the confidence of some people who had been customers of Sig Cox since the 60’s when my grandfather ran the company. It was very discouraging to me and we split our relationship with ******************** in December of 2007. During the time you were doing business with us, we were under an agreement with ********** that they would handle all of the residential customers, and Sig Cox would handle all of the commercial customers in Aiken, North Augusta, and Augusta. ********************** was allowed to use the Sig Cox name on their proposals and invoices, which caused confusion among many customers unsure as to who they were actually dealing with. After several years of this, circumstances within the two companies convinced all of the owners involved that it was in everyone’s best interest to split the relationship up. We each took back our previous customers. Unfortunately, I do not believe I ever got to meet with you personally and I regret that. My family has been running Sig Cox since 1926. Any company with an 86 year history had to get that way by treating customers right, and making sure we did everything in our power to correct any wrongs. I would like that opportunity again if you would allow. Please contact me directly at 706-722-5304 and give me that chance. We take our Angie’s List reports very seriously, and hopefully I can convince you of my commitment to my customers and you may consider restating your review of our company and switching it to ***************************, the company that actually did the work for you.

When they installed it, I thought they gave me a lot of options. I got three estimates and they were the best priced. I love the unit they put in. The service is always on time and professional. They do a good job. When my heat was out this morning, they arrived within an hour of my phone call. I am happy with their services. I'd recommend them to anyone.

As I mentioned, the installers had the new unit installed very quickly. They were professional, knowledgeable, and courteous. When they finished, they cleaned up the area, leaving it as clean as it was when they came. As a result of my choice, (not to replace the entire system), it turned out we had a problem that night, with the outside compressor. I called the sales manager, and he came out late in the day (it was dark out), and diagnosed the problem with the compressor. Turned out he had to replace a part on it to get it working. He ran home, got the part, and installed it. (This was 9 PM!). The system has been working fine since. It's been a couple days now since the install, and the late night repair. The sales manager was going to stop by over the weekend and pick up a check, but he didn't make it. I didn't know yet what the total cost was, and it was surprising to me that they weren't in a big hurry to get paid. It's bee a few days now since the repairs, when I asked what the total was, it turns out it's exactly what was originally quoted. I'm impressed by the fact that this company provided such good service, and didn't "fatten the tab", when in my opinion, it'd be fair to them to do so. They've performed diagnostic services, replaced Freon, made a second late night diagnostic on a part of the system they didn't work on (my mistake), and made a second repair. If I have any further needs for Heating and A/C repair, I will not hesitate to call Sig Cox. I'm glad that I've found a company that I can trust.
Description of Work: We have a two story house with two heat pumps. Larger one for downstairs, smaller one for upstairs. Sig Cox performed diagnostics on the larger unit to find out why it wasn't cooling our downstairs area. The service tech did the normal pressure check to verify the compressor's working, and found we were low on Freon. This is the fourth time in 7 years, we've had to have the Freon filled. Three other local Heat & A/C companies have been here, and all of them did a quick look around the unit, made small repairs, re-filled the system and then left. Obviously they hadn't found the real leak. Sig Cox re-checked around the compressor, but then went on to check other areas. The tech found a very bad leak at the back of the evaporator coil, in the air handler unit in our attic. The service tech said he'd explain the problem to his supervisor, and that someone would contact me later in the day. I met with the sales manager later that afternoon. He explained that there were three options available to me, what the costs were for each, and what risks were associated with each them. I chose to have the entire air handler (and evaporator) replaced (middle option). The sales manager said he'd have thet installers out the next day. True to his word, they showed up (earlier than scheduled) the next day. The new unit was installed in approximately two hours, and the system was back up and running.

Estimator showed up Mon. a little late, but within reason. He "quickly" did a walk through of existing system and did not seem to be very interested because he took few, if any, notes and informed me that they would probably not be the cheapest estimate. He told me he would contact me with a price by Friday (July 6), but as of August 3 I have not heard from him. Repair work done was excellent, but lack of attention and response by estimator leaves me with a big question about Sig Cox, especially for major work.
Description of Work: Called Sig Cox on a Saturday before July 4th holiday with an HVAC problem and they responded promptly. Jason was very polite, fixed the problem (replaced fan capacitor) and arranged for Brad(?) to provide estimate for replacing entire HVAC system on Monday.

I'm very sorry for the confusion and lack of response. My estimator reported that he had left your estimate in the mailbox that same day because you had to leave home and he could not reconnect with you that afternoon. I have no way of confirming whether he did that or not, so if you never saw it, he either didn't do it, or it got lost. After I saw your Angie's List report I had him contact you again to drop off a copy. We still have the original if you need another copy, but I'm sure you have obtained service by now. For anyone reading this, if you don't hear back from one of our representatives, please take a moment to contact our office and will make sure you are taken care of.

The individuals performing the work were very courteous and professional. I spoke to the owner couple of times on the phone and he was very helpful. He helped to determine the path forward on it and he did so to my satisfaction. It seemed to be rather pricey. It is hard to compare because I would have to know what the market rate but for a 4 ton unit it seemed to be okay.
Description of Work: I used Sig Cox Heating & Air Conditioning. They came to troubleshoot an air conditioner and they determined that there was some leakage and it burnt out the compressor. The eventually replaced the unit with a new heat pump which they were able to buy.

Went well overall but the company is very busy and often it is difficult to get a hold of the representative in a timely manner. I am still waiting for a follow up and to finish the detailed finish work of the install. UPDATE 3 AUGUST 2012 I was extremely pleased with the follow up by my representative Barrett a stellar help throughout. It appears the delay was caused, in part by a misunderstanding of phasing of the work in relation to other projects on going in my home. To the Companies credit the owner and Barrett took notice of the original two B's in the categories above and responded immediately. This is a company that strives to be an A+ at what it does and it shows. They quickly rectified the remaining work and I am already planning to use them on a second project to update the HVAC in my addition later this year.
Description of Work: Diagnosed an issue with existing HVAC and zoning of climate control. Installed new attic based heat pump/HVAC unit.

Excellent We would highly recommend Sig Cox to others.
Description of Work: We needed to have our AC/Furnace unit replaced, and the two gentleman from Sig Cox (Jamie, Chris) were here all day doing the work (temp outside was 100+ degrees). They were polite, professional and did an excellent job. When checking out the new unit at the end of the day, they discovered that we also needed a new thermostat, which they installed quickly and efficiently. They obviously knew what they were doing. They cleaned up nicely afterwards as well.

Home AC went out last night and was frantically looking for HVAC support on a Sunday. Started calling down Angies List around 0800 and only one company answered took my info and promised someone would call me back. No call back after 6 hours. I tried calling the list again at around 3:00PM and Sig Cox answered and promised to call back. Technician called back 30 mins and 20 mins later at my home (side note...the previous company technician called back when Sig Cox technician was on his way to my home). The technician quickly diagnosed the the problem and went to pickup another tech for the part. Replaced the broken part and back in business. Very Professional, Very knowledgable, Very quick response, and very much would recommend them and use them again. Thank You Very Much Sig Cox. Roger Barona
Description of Work: Home AC out door unit fan spinning but not cooling the home (Internal house temp was 95*). Technician checked the capacitors and deemed that it was the problem. Replaced the capacitor and fan immediately started spinning the right direction. Checked for proper cooling fluids and technician thought initially low until connected "Hi" side of testing device. Gauge read fluids level normal.

ac was freezing up every time the compressor kicked on. The tech showed my the correct way of installing the filters and stressed the importance of changing them every month. He looked over the system both inside the house and the unit outside. While charging the unit with the coolant he noticed a valve (i think he called a shredder valve) had a leak and replaced it. Overall if there was an A+ as a choice for rating them i would have given it in every category listed.
Description of Work: Called for service and the tech was here within an hour. wow that was really quick thought i might have to wait a day or two. Barrett was very professional and was very honest in answering my questions. He waited until he knew the ac was fixed. And the 20% off coupon that i printed off angies list cut $70.00 off the total bill. Awesome!! Will be calling them in the future with any problems with my heating and ac.

I could not have asked for better service. I called on a Monday morning to schedule an appointment to have someone come and check our A/C. It was not cooling properly. By Friday we had a new unit installed and running. The system we had was original to the house we bought and was 15 years old. I would highly recommend Sig Cox and/or Jason (who installed the new unit) to anyone needing heating/AC. P.S. When Jason came out on Monday to see what was wrong. He worked on the old system to ensure it would get us through the 4 days before they could install a new system.

Called in for service around 10:30 am and the Technician was here by 2:30 pm the same day. Extremely satisfied with the service from the initial phone call to Abby to set an appointment to the completion of the service visit by technician Chris. Chris had a lot of patience when it came to answering all questions that I asked of him. He explained every thing to the point of me thinking I could work on the A/C system now. He found where the leak was quickly and showed me exactly where it was and why it was leaking and throughly explained my different options for repair and/or replacement of these items. He also explained the pros and cons of everything. Will look forward to interacting with Sig Cox and Chris in the future. I recommend Sig Cox to everyone that is looking for a heating and air company. The price was very reasonable for the area I live in compared to other company's I've used for the exact same work. Thanks a lot.

I thought they were pretty expensive, but knowledgeable. However, I did have an interaction with an unethical ex-employee of theirs. This salesman advised me that I would need to have extensive work done, but I really didn’t. He was fired, and a second sales associate met with me. He was much more honest and upfront. Overall, I was satisfied with their work.

We were mostly happy with the service. We thought the installation went well, and we have been saving money with the new units. However, we were expecting to get the energy tax credit per a conversation with their salesperson, but the units we purchased didn’t qualify. I thought that the sales associate was a little misleading, and that part of the experience was a little frustrating.

Received appointment within a few hours of initial phone call. Professional, helpful, friendly employee came exactly on time to assess our air conditioner problems. He communicated the problems and fixed the easy ones himself. He discussed possibilities for the more complex issues with the air conditioners. Overall the house was significantly cooler before he even left the house. Would definitely recommend this company.
