Friendly staff analyzed my house and provided me with a well written, easy to understand estimate for the AC/Furnace system installation. The estimate was a few hundred dollars more than the other companies that I consulted. I chose Western, despite the higher price, partly because the analysis for determining the proper sized system for my house seemed more thorough than the others. The removal of my old system and installation of the new system went smoothly. Friendly workers were punctual, clean, polite and seemed knowledgeable. After the install was finished, I noticed they installed 2 wires into the side of the furnace, but the wires did not have grommets to protect them from the sheetmetal. A simple pull on those wires would have caused the sheet metal to cut the wires, possibly cause a short, and potentially create a shock hazard. A bad installation mistake in my opinion. I spoke to the installation manager at the company about the problem and he sent a worker out within 2 hours to install the grommets. I was impressed with the company's responsiveness. I had a minor adjustment issue a few days later, and the company was again very responsive.
Description of Work: Western Heating and AC installed a new furnace and AC system in my house. They also sealed up my ducts.

We liked the reviews here on Angie's List, so we called and got a quote. We were relatively certain the price was normal, and because we wanted this done quickly, we went ahead and made the appointment. (We have to be honest and say that we're not the greatest price-shoppers, so we really can't speak to the price/value of the service. All we can say is it was worth it to us and we don't feel we were being overcharged.) The guys were there on time and finished the job in about 1/2 day (our house is a little over 1500 sf). They were friendly, professional and informative. We intend to sign up for their semi-annual maintenance service.
Description of Work: We had the air ducts cleaned on an old system before we moved into a house we just purchased.

I called last week to have someone come look at what we needed to have done with an air duct that was an obstruction in our kitchen remodel. They were there the next day to look at the situation and gave us an estimate. They were so friendly and knowledgeable and even gave us tips on some other things that we had not noticed in our remodel project. Then within the week they sent over a serviceman to do the work which was done quickly and the finished work itself was just beautifully done. The serviceman was professional and so nice and considerate and left the area where he worked spotless. What an awesome company.. They are highly recommended by myself and my husband.
Description of Work: Some duct work in our kitchen needed to be re-routed as it was in the way and we were doing a kitchen remodel. Some of the duct work was removed as it wasn't needed and was re-routed which turned out to be a more efficient place for the duct and also the vent.

The technician arrived on time, and was not bothered about crawling under my house to fix the furnace. I heard some banging, and after some time, he came up to tell me that he moved the thermocoupler up so that the flame would hit the top 3/8 inch of the tip. He only charged for the service call. He did not require parts. It is now January, and I haven't had a bit of a problem since then, so I'd say his diagnosis was spot-on! I'd also mentioned that I'd had condensation problems from the A/C, and asked for an estimate to fix that. He said he'd hooked up whatever was not hooked up for that, too, but since it's winter now, I don't know if the condensation problem is gone. I am hoping for the best based on the success of the thermocoupler issue.

This is my first time using Angies list and writing a review so I typed everything already in the previous field and it won't allow me to copy and paste here so I don't want to re-type all of that so hopefully it will show up or I will have to repost. From start to finish it was a shockingly easy and pleasant experience. I could not be happier, which is rare for me. I am the cynical, grumpy old man and I am just so impressed with Western's professionalism from the initial phone call to the actual service. The fact that they could actually service my heater today right after I called, two days before Christmas. I was planning on spending a very cold Christmas this year I am feeling the heat coming out of the register as I type this and I could not be more thankful. I already had been freezing for about 3 days hoping the system would just reset itself and get better like it did last yer. Happy, Happy, Happy. I actually was considering some other companies because I liked their websites and thought they were professional and then I decided to break down and pay for Angies list. I almost didn't do it because I did not want to pay a fee but I decided I would try it out and there was a percentage off if I used PayPal so I decided I would try it for a year and decide how I liked it. The companies I had been considering received a grade of F and so I saw Western's A rating and outstanding service award so I just thought I would give them a call and see how it felt. I think I am still in shock that it all happened so fast and I got what I wanted and I did not have to pay an arm and a leg. All my limbs are intact, I am actually satisfied. I don't know what to make of this feeling, I rarely have it, that is for sure, especially with so many companies today. Angies List paid for itself with this experience of mine that is for sure. I am a believer and am considering holiday gifts of Angies list for my family. I had never used Western for anything before but now I am going to use them for my duct cleaning and for air conditioner service. As long as future services are as pleasing as this one they will have a loyal customer for life with me.
Description of Work: My heater kept cycling off and error codes were continuously displayed and it kept getting colder and colder in my house. I had to sleep with three quilts and a heating pad. I am a paraplegic so getting too cold can be very dangerous for me. I called at 3:30 PM on Friday December 23 thinking I would have to wait until Monday to have someone fix it because of the late hour and them closing at 5 PM and being two days before Christmas. They had someone at my house within an hour and he stayed for an hour and 15 minutes and went all through my heater, blew out the dust, took out the motor blew out so much soot and dust that it looked like the fan was on fire because all the dust and soot billowing out. He gave me recommendations of how to make my furnace run better and what to set the thermostat at as I have no clue about those things. He was patient with my questions and was so thorough he actually crawled inside my heater and was looking for cracks because the color of the flame was concerning him that their might be a crack somewhere and that it could be releasing CO2 into the air. He did not charge me for this he simply wanted to put his own mind at ease. I thought this was awesome and I very much appreciated him going the extra mile. He had my furnace torn apart and put back together like a NASCAR raceteam. He also asked first if I would like him to install some new furnace filters as I physically am unable to change them and install them myself and I said yes. With all that, the time, the work, the filters he only charged me $80.00. I was sick to my stomach waiting for the estimate because I thought surely it was going to be 3 to 500 dollars for as much time as he had taken and all the work that he did. I about fell out of my wheelchair when he said $80.00, I said is that the total price or are you still adding, he said no that is the total price. I was so happy. I have not come across a service thechnician or a company that has not taken advantage of me and my naivete for so long. I did not think there were any companies left that still cared about doing great work at a fair price. They have a lifelong customer with me now and I had never used them before but now I will use nobody else. I was in desperate need and for them to be so professional and then to charge me so little even after taking so much time. They close at 5 and the guy never left my house until 5:45. He made sure he did as much as he could do on his end and made sure I was left with heat. I am in awe and I think whatever the highest rating there is for Angies List is not high enough I would like to go well above that and rate them even higher. I could not be more pleased, shocked and surpised by the whole experience. To have them respond so fast. I never told them I was in a wheelchair when I called so it wasn't a pity thing I just said my heater was acting up and needed servicing and they were on top of it so fast it made my head spin. I just did not realize there were still good quality businesses like this out there. This is how it was in my parents' day I thought those days were long gone but apparently someone still has some values and integrity in this world. What a wonderful thing to see, I am almost happy that my heater broke down just so I could find all this out and find hope again that the fabric of society is not totally declining. A+++ Infinity rating. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

The overall service was excellent. The repairman arrived on time, was very professional and did the repair for the estimated amount I was quoted over the phone. I was very impressed with the repairman's knowledge and diagnostic skill. He offered advice on maintenance and genuinely cared about being helpful. I would use them again.

A neighbor's heater went out over the weekend, and she called another local heating company to assess the situation. The service technician used language that was intimidating (he referred to a part being 'pitted' and un-repairable) and told her that the entire furnace needed to be replaced. My neighbor wanted to get a second opinion, so she paid the $127 cost of the service call, and started calling other companies to get quotes. Every one she talked to wanted to charge her $100 or more for a service call in order to come out for an assessment. I told her about the outstanding experience I had with Western Heating (see my 11/29/10 report), and suggested she give them a call. When she explained the situation to them, Western agreed to waive the service call fee and provide an estimate for free. They came out within 2 days, explained that all that was needed was a new controller board, and they performed the repair for $240. Western Heating *rocks*. This is a company that places a higher value on customer service and integrity than on profit, and they know profit will follow. Congratulations to you guys!

Our A/C went out on us. A quick (unprofessional) assessment by me led me to believe that the fan or fan motor had gone out on us. I called and got an appointment the next day. They could have come out same day, but it wasn't too hot out and I didn't want to incur the expense of an emergency response. The tech arrived on time and pretty much confirmed that yes, it was the fan motor. He had one on the truck and was able to replace it in short order. Once he was done with that, he tested the fan motor. It was working just fine, however he noticed that our A/C wasn't exactly cooling things down. We have never had A/C, so we didn't really know much other than our house would often get up to 76 or 78 during the summer, even with the shades drawn and everything closed up. He tested the pressure in the system (or something like that) and determined that our system was low and needed a few pounds of refrigerant. He took care of that and everything has been working great since. The total cost seemed very reasonable. He evaluated the options, presented them and then suggested the most inexpensive option to fix these two problems. It was great and I would absolutely use Western again.
Description of Work: Western replaced the fan motor in our furnace and also recharged our A/C system during the same visit.
