I showed the crew around and they began work immediately. They were careful as I just had the kitchen floor installed. After the installation I was instructed on the particulars of the furnace and humidifier. They cleaned up everything and hauled away the old furnace and two old metal doors I threw in to seal the deal. When my husband returned home from work that evening he could tell immediately upon stepping into the house we had a better heating system in the home.
Description of Work: On Monday, our alarm went off to indicate the presence of carbon monoxide. We call and had someone look at it and it was determined that our 1987 furnace was not going to make it another winter. I called the contractor who did our kitchen and ask about someone he spoke to me about previously. He gave Derek my telephone and he called me immediately. We set up an appointment for Tuesday at 6pm. We settled on a system and his 2 man crew was at the house by 9 am the next morning and the furnace and humidifier were completely installed by 2:30 pm. Derek was very thorough and up front about the costs to the complete satisfaction of my husband.

Excellent. I called to schedule an appointment at 9:30 a.m. and a technician was here between 10:30 and 11:00 and he was done about 12:30. Could not have asked for better service from Peterman HVAC or Allen the technician. We ended up buying a service plan.
Description of Work: Peterman Heating and Cooling, Inc. has cleaned flame sensor and a new capacitor was installed. Allen Checked all of our systems and found out the humidifier was not receiving water so he fixed the clog and replaced the filter.

The technicians (Rich & Bob) were prompt, courteous and took care in their work. They didn't suggest a myriad of additional services that would raise the price. I was pleased that they were able to keep this 17 year old unit capably operating.

I have been very happy with their work. Scheduling appointments are handled by their office. They always contact me with several scheduling options. Service has always been punctual and professional. The technicians are capable and efficient. They have provided good recommendations and advice. They do not try to solicit unnecessary work or repairs.

The estimate was lower than competitors, so I chose them. Air duct cleaning crew came a day before the installation crew. The air duct crew removed the old equipment and cleaned all the duct work throughout the house. In addition, they helped me move some large pieces of furniture in from the garage. The next day the installation crew came about an hour and a half late. They worked until 6pm installing the heater, ac and a couple add ons. They were going to go over the system with me and explain things such as the new thermostat, but the tech really wanted to go home. Within an hour, I noticed that the heater was on but air conditioning was coming out the vents. I called the sales rep and he asked me to call the service department. A technician on-call came within an hour to inspect the system. To my supprise, he went through the entire system to be sure it was installed correctly. He found that certain wires were crossed which caused the heater and the a/c to run simultaneously. He also discovered a leak in the newly installed humidifier. This technician took the time to explain the system and listened when I said I did not want the thermostat programmed. The service tech and the air duct cleaning crew were the bright spots of this process. As for as the company goes, they take care of their customers. A handyman cut through a wall and severed an a/c line prior to installation. Peterman Heating and Cooling did not charge the handyman or me for this added cost. I did appreciate that very much and so did the handyman. There is room for improvement, however, in the end it all turned out fine. Possibly, just a little customer service training for the installers.

The experience was really good. Everything ran very smoothly. They had the best price and I liked the salesman a lot. He worked with me on getting the price down. When they came out to install it they took the old one out. They covered the floor since they are hardwood floors. They installed it properly.

They did a very good job looking over things and were prompt, professional and the think I liked best is that my ac unit is about 25 years old....they didnt even mention the idea of selling me a new one. They said its working fine, just keep doing what you are doing. I loved that. It would have been easy to try and pressure me into getting a new one...so I am very thankful they were not pushy sales people. I've experienced that with other compnaies and I hate it. AND...they didnt find anything wrong with either unit...which also is unusual...as I've come across many companies who "find" things wrong during the inspections.
Description of Work: I bought their preventive maintenance checkup for both my ac and furnance. Both inspections were fabulous.

I have two central AC units (two zones), one of which had the coils freeze up. Once unfrozen, it stopped blowing cold air. I called Peterman and scheduled an appointment. Since I had one unit running, I did not pay the extra for a off-hours service call. The repairman found leaks in both systems. Plugged each and filled the freon. He also told me the cause of the frozen coils was the location of my dehumidifier and suggested where to locate it. Since the service call, I have had the best AC, nice and cold, with the most even humidity since I bought the house 10 years ago. The $587 was for repairing the damage, the service call, Freon and I bought a service contract on both units. I think the price is fair for the work I had done and the service contract I bought. What is GREAT, is I forgot about the service contract, yet they reminded me that I had some free service calls built in for periodic maintenance. They called to remind me and schedule it. Most firms would have kept the money and let me forget.

Peterman Heating and Cooling performed service on our HVAC system. The next day I came home to find the ceiling under the unit caved in due to water. Peterman's technician did not put the drain line back into the drain which caused the water damage. It look me hours to find the cause of the problem and to clean up the mess. It will likely cost me $500 - $1000 to fix the damage they caused. Peterman Heating and Cooling was very professional and owned up to the their honest mistake. They came out and repaired my ceiling and repainted it. I was surprised that they were willing to do this. I don't think many companies would have done this. Because of the way they handled this they have earned my trust and I would definitely use them again.

The member was accurate with his grading. I would be upset too! We made a mistake on the upstairs system that cause some water damage to his garage ceiling. We have hired a general contractor to repair the member's damaged cielings. We hate that this happened to the member but we made a mistake, we fully owned up to it, and are making it right. PS. We installed a full heating and cooling system in his downstairs portion of his home and it went great! Thanks for checking out Angies List and reading this post!

It was a great experience overall. The technician started the tune-up on the exterior a/c unit, replacing the capacitor. He then needed to add 0.5oz of freon to fully charge the system. He explained everything he was doing step by step and would answer any questions we had. He also did an inspection/tune-up on the furnace and heat and found nothing wrong with that system. He suggested things we could to do save money on the work he performed that day. Great pleasure to work with.
