Simanton Mechanical

Andy Hardisty has been the one to take care of our HVAC concerns in our older home. We have had nothing but great experiences with Andy. He is incredibly knowledgeable, super friendly, and very honest. He is an expert in his field and he is one of those very honest contractors that you wish you could find the same person in all the areas of house maintenance. He gives us his honest opinion about items without needing to upsell or sell us something that we don't need or want. His craftsmanship is always excellent and he is punctual and reliable. We will never use any other HVAC company as long as we live and Andy has his business.

We added 26 solar panels to our home and wanted to go local when purchasing solar panels. When I did the research, most of the solar companies were located in Ohio. Andy Hardisty owns Simanton Mechanical, but it is under Ecofriendly Mechanical that he installs solar panels. Unfortunately Angie's List would not let me make the review under Ecofriendly Mechanical. Andy came out several times to find out where the best placement for solar panels would be. Usually they are on the south side of a house, but because our neighbors have huge trees that shade for our south side roof, the better location was on the east and west side of the home. He came out with his mechanical device on several occasions to see how the sun hit the roof to make sure that we would get the best performance from our solar panels. A lot of the solar companies provide panels that are like Christmas tree lights so that if one panel goes out, all of them do. Andy uses Enphase solar panels which have microinverters so each panel is a stand alone system. If one fails, it doesn't wipe out all the other panels. The enphase box is the size of a modem and is not a big clunky box that mounts on the exterior of the home. Andy placed ours in our laundry room and we can monitor energy production daily on our cell phone. Andy is also able to monitor our panels through his account and can see if there are any problems. Andy had a great crew of three do the work and he would supervise them. One of the installers was a roofer and we had gotten a new roof 4 years ago and were concerned that there might be some roofing problems after the installation of the solar panels, but there weren't. It took about 2 days to install all 26 panels and they did a fantastic job. Our neighbors got solar panels installed too and their panels are terribly mounted and crooked and installed where there is the least amount of sun and big trees overshadowing the home. We are so thrilled with our new solar panels, and his price was cheaper than other companies located in OH. Once again...super excellent quality work by Andy and his team! They didn't leave a mess and cleaned up after themselves. If we were to move...there would be no other company to install solar panels for us than with Ecofriendly Mechanical.

Checked and inspected inside and out. Cleaned electronic filter. Checked thermostat. After job completed, I was informed about findings. Professionally performed job.

I've worked with them for ten years. I'm very happy with them. They're very professional, and their workers are extremely pleasant and very knowledgeable. They seem to hire the high quality, old school, know what they're doing kind of guys. The sales manager is amazing when it comes to being completely honest. There is no better service than what he's able to provide. This company is really great. I recommend them to anyone. I give them an A on everything.
