They are top-notch. We’ve used them before, but on a much bigger level than just a $54 air conditioning check. We’ve been using them over a period of time. I wouldn’t tell you it was top-notch if it was anything but the best. They’re responsiveness is excellent. We had an appointment with them and they showed up at the time they said they were going to be here and there they were. I would absolutely use them again and again, and again. Actually, this little job was done outside in the backyard. They needed to get all the dirt and dust out of the condensing unit, the air conditioning unit. They needed to get a hose so they could spray all the dust and accumulation that takes place over a period of time. I had an extra 50-foot hose that allowed them to hook up with my hose reel and gave them enough water to clean the air conditioning condensing unit. It took an hour with getting the hose and doing everything and they sprayed. They’re very careful, they know their business. They came to do the job that needed to be done, they knew exactly what they needed to do and they did it.
Description of Work: American Weathermakers were in our basement just doing a checkup making sure that everything is good on the air conditioning system. They were just checking the air conditioning system.

The installations were fine. They have serviced all of these units well every fall and spring, and supply the filters needed whenever I call. Their Comfort Club is a great convenience.
Description of Work: Have used them (and the predecessor company: Boslough) for 30 years. Have had only good service for all that time. The work done included a new furnace, air cleaner, and humidifier around 1993/1994, a water heater in 2012, and a new furnace and A/C unit in 2013. The last service visit was June 6, 2017.

I signed up for Angie's list specifically because I didn't feel Yelp was helpful and am thankful I did because American Weathermakers didn't show up on Google. I read a few of the top reviewed companies and felt good about AW. I called right after lunch and they sent someone out by 4, which was great. Matt was our technician and was able to identify the issue within seconds and was able to fix our furnace. I was also happy to have had a coupon from Angie's list :). I would definitely use them again and I will specifically request Matt as he was not only super talented but he was also a great person.

It was not very old and needed a repair again for the same problem a Control Box that stopped working. American Weathermakers did not actually find the problem. I had several repairmen out and the third one mentioned the pipe at the top was too hot and melting a part. It was another company that came to install a new water heater that pointed out my chimney was the problem, not the water heater. The chimney was back drafting because the shute was too narrow. That problem should have been discovered sooner. Before I bought two new water heaters I didn't need.

It is very easy to schedule with them, and the service techs are always knowledgeable, polite, and respectful of my home, taking care to use booties when they enter. They always arrive within the time frame they agreed to, and will call when you are the next stop. I did need them once for an emergency call, and they responded promptly. They are not the cheapest, or most expensive, but are very reliable and capable.
Description of Work: I have contracted with American Weathermakers to do semi-annual maintenance on my furnace for many years. They come once in the spring and once in the fall. The annual cost is about $270, which includes the two service calls, plus the cost of a humidifier pad.

Went well. Very professional . They later phoned and explained our options.
Description of Work: Had a cleaning and check of my furnace. Was a second opinion as I was told I needed a new furnace. They also found the same issues. Also managed somehow to bring extra heat into our kitchen and family room which was always very cold in the winter. Not really sure how this happened but after 15 years of freezing, it is nice to be warm.
