This was a horrible experience from start to finish-- we are forced to use this company only because our home warranty policy required it. Affordable Solutions did appear for the initial visit to assess the A/C problem and agreed to replace the blown unit the following week. However, each week it was scheduled Affordable failed to show or even call, even when they confirmed the day before. The staff were always clueless that the crew never showed, and never ever able to find out what happened or even contact the crew in the field on the scheduled day. The day the crew finally arrived, 4 weeks after first scheduling them, they arrived at 10 a.m. and it took until nearly 9 a.m. to get the new unit installed. Apparently there was no new unit available when they came out that morning, and it took them 4 hours of waiting at a warehouse late afternoon before some unit was found that they could install which seemed suspicious. The new unit worked for five weeks then the compressor blew up and it totally broke down. In addition to the incompetent install, Affordable Solutions staff has absolutely no internal communications to coordidate updates, notify customers of changes or cancellations, or to check on equipment status needed for jobs. As of summer, 2015, this company is no longer a member of the Better Business Bureau due to it horrible track record. I am surprised that Angie's List allows a companies that have bad ratings by the local BBB.
Description of Work: Assessed A/C unit and ended up replacing it and also relocating it. It blew up 5 weeks later and we had to hire a more competent and reliable company to replace it.

They came at 10:30am and were here until 8:30pm if that tells you anything. I signed off on the paper that they had completed the work when things were done. About a month later, I found that my water softner wasn't working properly - upon futher investigation I found that they had apparently blown a fuse and didn't mention it to me. If they would have told me, we could have fixed it right away. The air conditioner isn't working now either. I had another company come and take a look to see what was wrong, and they said the circut board was blown and they said since it was a brand new unit, its more than likely an issue that occured upon installation - Now I can't reach the company to get this stuff taken care of. I have a 2 year service contract with them, but they aren't returning my calls.

Affordable Solutions didn't show by noon, so I called to find out when they'd be able to make it out. The office manager's response was that they'd get to me "at some point" that day. I had taken the morning off of work that day, and then had to take the remainder of the day off to wait on them to arrive. They never came. I called a little before 5:00 pm, and was told that they were sorry, and would reschedule me for Wednesday morning, (4/13) and would make me their very first appointment so that I could get to work by mid morning or so. They didn't show. By 9:45 am, I called, and they said "well we don't even have the toilet in stock, so we can't do anything today anyways. This company wasted two days of my time, and were completely and totally unprofessional.
Description of Work: Affordable Solutions was sent here by our Home Warranty company to repair a broken toilet. They determined that my toilet was broken and needed replaced. They scheduled me for Monday, April 11th between 8-noon to install.

The date on this submission is a guess, it was last fall sometime.
Description of Work: 3 calls, the first because the blower wasn't coming on and did a yearly tuneup service, came out again (I can't remember now what the specific issue was but they determined I needed a new furnace. A week after that there was gas leaking from the furnace. A salesman had come out during that week and did not seem to know much about furnaces. He blew the pilot light out, was going to relight it by sticking his lighter in. when I came back with a long stick match he was trying to put my carbon monoxide detector up to the furnace (the cord wouldn't reach).

By far the worst company I have ever dealt with. Plumber came out to fix my subpump and spent three hours working on it to say it was fixed. We found out the the work was never completed. They charge us $85 more the than our deductable for our home warranty. Called them, they said they would be back on the next Monday between 2-4 pm and never showed. I called them at 4:45pm and they said they would be here by 8;00 pm..........and never showed! This company has a lot of bad reviews and i am surprise they still in business. Stay away from them.

This company was fantastic! They performed warranty work through my warranty company. A couple of weeks ago I found out that my water heater was starting to leak so I called my warranty company to see what could be done. They reached out to Affordable Solutions to set up an appointment. When they arrived they found out that it was an issue and put in a request to the warranty company for us to get a new water heater. I was under the impression that the warranty company would reach out to me to go through the details and send Affordable Solutions the water heater. I waited about a week and never heard anything from the warranty company so I reached out to Affordable Solutions. They apologized even through they had done nothing wrong. Leslie I believe was the one that reached out to the warranty company on my behalf and got everything settled for me. This was great as it got things rolling. I was told that the warranty company was going to cover the cost of the water heater and the installation, but I would need to cover some other expenses such as their disposal of the old water heater. I reached out to Leslie to go over the details and see if there was a way to negotiate the price or if I could just dispose of it myself. She said unfortunately they need to handle those types of transactions do to insurance reasons which is understandable. Too my surprise she called me back a few minutes later to say they are gonna knock the disposal fee in half for me. That was very exciting and made me very happy. It's good to know that just being nice does not go over looked. The installation is done and the old water heater is gone. It is working great and I would definitely use Affordable Solutions again!
Description of Work: They removed my old water heater that was leaking and installed a new water heater.

As an HSA Home warranty customer, our air conditioning repair was dispatched to Affordable Solutions. The claim was dispatched on 7/13/15. Someone from Affordable Solutions finally contacted us on 7/15 to schedule a repair by Aaron on 7/21. Aaron failed to show up on 7/21. We were rescheduled for 7/22. Again Aaron failed to show up. We were rescheduled for noon to 2 pm on 7/23 with Alex, who has also failed to show up on time. We called Affordable Solution to find out what's happening, and we were told that Alex is running late. He'll be here sometime today. I'll hold my breath.... Needless to say I'm unimpressed by both Affordable solutions and HSA Home Warranty. I have little faith that my air conditioner will ever be repaired. Updated to add a letter sent to Todd Syx, owner of Affordable SOlutions to lodge a formal complaint. Dear Mr. Syx, I am writing to lodge a complaint about Affordable Solutions. I will begin by outlining the timeline of events from July 2015. July 13 My claim to my home warranty company HSA was dispatched to Affordable Solutions. July 15 I had a missed call and a voicemail from Affordable Solutions at 5:19 p.m. I returned the call at 5:38 p.m., and reached the answering service, which was unable to schedule an appointment after hours, although the initial call to schedule was placed after hours. July 16 My call was not returned. I heard nothing from Affordable Solutions. July 17 I had a missed call and voice mail from Affordable Solutions at 9:26 a.m. I returned the call at 9:32 a.m., and we made an appointment for Aaron to arrive the following Monday, July 20 to repair the air conditioning. I arranged to take the day off of work. July 20 I received a call at 9:12 a.m. to cancel the appointment due to an emergency. We rescheduled for Aaron to arrive between 8 and 10 a.m. the next day, and I arranged to take a second day off of work. July 21 Aaron did not show up by 10:00, so I called Affordable Solutions at 10:59 to inquire about the delay. I was informed that Aaron had failed to show up for work that day. We rescheduled for Alex to come out on July 23 from noon to 2:00, and I arranged to take a third day off of work. July 23 I waited for Alex to show up at the appointed time. When Alex did not show up on time, I called Affordable Solutions at 2:18. I was advised that he was running late from his first job of the day and would arrive by 4:00. When he had not arrived by 4:42, I phoned again to find out when he would show up. I was advised that he was approximately 15 minutes away and would be with me shortly. I asked for a supervisor to call me on July 24 because I had taken three days off work, and had still never seen an AC repair technician. I asked how Affordable Solutions would compensate me for my lost work, and I was advised that Kristie (apologies if the spelling is incorrect) would phone me on July 24. Alex showed up around 5:30 and set to work. After about 1.5 hours, he had diagnosed a fault in the Zone Control board, a part that he would have to pick up and install on Tuesday of the next week. I asked him if he would now take a look at the second condenser unit, which was failing to cool the upstairs properly. He said that he was running late for his next job, and he would take a look on Tuesday. July 24 I had no phone calls from anyone at Affordable Solutions, as had been promised on July 23. Eleven days out from the HSA dispatch, my AC was still not functioning properly. The main AC failed to maintain the temperatures to which the 3 zones were set, and in the heat of the day my upstairs AC could cool to 77°F, although it was set to 71°F. July 27 I called Affordable Solutions to schedule an appointment for Tuesday, which was when Alex said he would have the part. I was told that Alex would arrive between 2 and 4 p.m. on July 28. I asked if he had the required part, and I was told that he did indeed have the part. I planned for a fourth day off of work. July 28 When Alex had not arrived within the appointment window I called Affordable Solutions at 4:07. I was told that the appointment was not with Alex but Levi, who was finishing up with another customer. Kristie told me that Levi was just taking a credit card payment from the customer, and his GPS put him at approximately 18 minutes? drive from my house. I asked Kristie if Levi had the part from Alex, and she assured me that he did. She also assured me that Levi would call me as soon as he left to let me know exactly when he would arrive. I asked Kristie how to contact the owner, and she gave me the email address dispatch@affordablesolutionshvac.com. At 5:35 p.m., I had not heard from or seen Levi, so I phoned Affordable Solutions again. I had to leave a message with the answering service to find out when Levi would arrive. I was informed that my call would be returned on the next day. Levi and Wayne arrived at approximately 5:45. Levi told me that when Kristie called him to send him to my house, he was not with another customer but on his way home, on the other side of town. He also told me that he did not have the part required to repair the Zone Control board, as I had been assured by Kristie. He was there to repair the upstairs AC, but I thought he was there to do the job discussed the previous week with Alex and promised by Kristie. Levi called Alex to discuss how to get the job done. Alex would pick up the part and install it on Thursday, July 30. My husband hosed off the condenser unit that controls the upstairs AC. This did not solve the problem, so we also replaced the filter. July 29 I spoke with Angela at Affordable Solutions to schedule a time for Alex to install the part July 30. We scheduled noon to 2 p.m, and I planned for a fifth day off of work. Once the appointment was scheduled, I asked Angela how I can contact supervisors. I learned that Clark is Kristie?s supervisor. I asked for a message to be given to Clark to call me to discuss the problems I have had with Affordable Solutions. Angela refused to provide contact information for Clark or Todd Syx, claiming that these details were not available to her. Ultimately I found this information on the company?s website. I was heartened by the customer service pledge where they promise to strive for perfection daily and deal with all complaints fairly and efficiently. July 30 Alex arrived early at 10:50. He installed the Zone Control board, and checked the freon in both condenser units. He assured me that the filter change would fix the problem upstairs. He was very polite, answered all of my questions, and explained to me what he did with the Zone Control board. I told him that I was happy with him because he was so kind and polite, and I appreciated the time that he spent working on our AC. I waited a few hours to see if Alex?s work had fixed the problems. However, the zones still do not reach the temperature set on the thermostats, and my upstairs AC does not maintain the temperature set on the thermostats. I wonder if the Zone Control board is installed properly. I wonder if there are problems with my thermostats, and I wonder if there are still problems with the condenser units. July 31 It is 18 days from the dispatch from HSA to Affordable Solutions, 5 appointments and days off work, many phone calls, and several lies and empty promises from at least 1 person at Affordable Solutions, and the original problems are still not resolved. I have not received a call back from Kristie, Clark, or Mr. Syx to discuss my complaints or request for compensation for 5 work days. I have no confidence that my messages for managers or owners have been passed along by dispatchers. I have no confidence that appointments that I made were submitted to the appropriate technician. I have no faith in the dispatchers who set appointment times or claim that technicians have the parts necessary to complete jobs. I doubt that anyone at Affordable Solutions can actually repair my air conditioning. I can see why the Better Business Bureau revoked its accreditation of Affordable Solutions earlier this month. I cannot understand why HSA uses Affordable Solutions as a contractor. But if I am to take the customer service pledge on the Affordable Solutions website seriously, I trust that Mr. Syx and Mr. Bridgwater will endeavor to resolve the problems with their dishonest and unprofessional employees and provide reasonable compensation to me. Given the promise of fairness and efficiency, I expect for this complaint to be resolved and my air conditioning to be repaired correctly by 5 p.m. Friday, August 7, 2015. I would like to receive a personal call from Mr. Syx to discuss this complaint and the plan for resolution by 5 p.m. Monday, August 3, 2015. I would like a refund of my $75 call out fee, and I would like to be compensated for the time that I have had to spend off work waiting for missed and late appointments that have still not remedied the AC problems.
Description of Work: I have engaged in a farse of epic proportions with Affordable Solutions.

Our AC unit was not installed correctly. It took over a week and approximately 6 phone calls for them to come out to look at it. They told us it was fixed only to have it break again a few days later. After the second trip out to fix it it has been working fine.

ASR was able to get to us on the 23rd in the afternoon. Jason, the tech, was able to detect quickly that the thermocouple was the problem. He cleaned it, straightened it out, tightened the connection with the main gas valve and reset it. Problem solved - pilot stayed lit and we were good to go with hot water! Jason was also most informative by letting me know what was wrong and what he'd done to fix it. He seems very interested in his work/job.
Description of Work: We had no hot water beginning on 22Jun15 and contacted our HSA Home Warranty carrier for help.

We have HSA Home Warranty and upon waking up on Monday March 2, 2015 we had no heat. We called HSA and they scheduled us with Affordable Solutions. I called Affordable Solutions at 8:30am because I knew they would be busy and we were put on the schedule for a 12-3pm window that day. At 3:15pm they still hadn't arrived and hadn't called. I then called them and was told the technician was running late and we would be next. We waited another hour and still hadn't heard from anyone. At that point we called both HSA home warranty and Affordable and were told the tech would be here in 45 minutes. By 7pm we still had no service nor did we hear a word from Affordable Solutions all day. We called HSA again and they sent out an emergency HVAC company to get our furnace checked and going until a new circuit board could be ordered. I called Affordable Solutions on Tuesday March 3 and asked to speak to a manager. I just couldn't believe all the lip service I got on Monday and that they completely didn't show or call us at all. The manager was apologetic and said it was a mis-communication, but if that's the way they run their company, I'd stay clear. Huge disappointment that they are a Home Warranty contracted company.
Description of Work: They never showed up or even called to examine our furnace despite our appointment thru our HSA Home Warranty service.

During a routine clean and maintenance procedure, another HVAC company told me I needed $2600 in repairs or a new furnace. I contacted my home warranty company and they sent ASR out to review my claim. ASR examined the unit and found nothing wrong with it. I hired a third HVAC company to "break the tie", and they too, found nothing wrong with the unit. I trust the competency of ASR technicians. I did however have problems with scheduling. It took three attempts to get together with technician. Two of those I sat waiting for them to arrive. The first time they were to be here between 10am and noon. At 11:30am I received a call saying truck had broke down and would not be able to meet appointment time. We rescheduled for next day again from 10am to noon. The next morning I called to verify appointment and was told I was scheduled for 5-7pm that night! Rescheduled the third time for yet another day. They got that one right. I suggest calling to verify appointment time a couple of hours after making appointment just to be sure you do not take time off work for a no show.

The plumber who was sent was 4 hours late for scheduled appointment. He used a mechanical drain cleaner and got the snake stuck. He told us it may have caught some roots and that he would come back the next afternoon with a machine to remove the snake. We waited at home all day until he finally called around 6pm saying that he would have to come the next day (Sunday). He was unable to get the snake out and told us the whole line would need to be dug up (we were definitely not prepared to do this). He came later in the week unannounced (wednesday) and cut the snake so he could retrieve his machine, leaving about 3 feet of the line sticking out. He told us again he would come back with another machine to get the snake out. 9 days go by and we had not heard back from the company. We finally spoke with them on Halloween night, two weeks after the plumber first came out. The first person we spoke with was a supervisor of some sort, said he handles conflict resolution. He told us that it wasn't their responsibility to pull out the snake and that they considered it abandoned equipment. He also told us that the plumber should have told us of the risk of getting the snake stuck before performing the service. Our plumber, however, did not tell us anything when he came, just asked where the basement was. The supervisor blamed this on a language barrier, as the plumber was Nigerian. Then he kept telling me all the things the plumber did wrong and said he needed more training from the company, though when I questioned the plumber's competency he became very defensive, saying that he was a master plumber with 20 years experience. Overall the conversation was a bit heated and the man had very poor customer relations skills. I will admit that I was very curt, but I was understandably very frustrated by this time. The man contradicted much of what he said and contradicted everything we had been told by the plumber. He was condescending, defensive, and put much of the blame on us. Next I was called by the owner, Todd. By now I was tired of being frustrated and had given up any hope that this company would help us at all. The conversation was pretty pointless and Todd kept repeating the same things for 30 minutes while never being able to explain who was responsible for removing the line. Eventually he promised to send someone out the next day to use a machine to remove the line. He said he wanted to make the situation right. 4 weeks have passed and we have heard nothing else from the company. We still have a snake stuck in our drain and the water and sewage regularly come up through our drain which we have to bucket out. We can only shower every 3 days, and even then they are only 2 minutes. I have barely used the restroom in my house in over a month. We have since found another company to dig up part of the drain. Our $75 problem has now turned into almost $5000. I now understand that it is not completely uncommon for a snake to get stuck in roots or something else. It would have been nice to have information about this prior to the work being started as we were told should have happened. Perhaps another plumber would have had better equipment and been able to clear the drain, perhaps not. Still, we had a very poor experience with this company and had no desire to pay them to dig up our basement and yard to retrieve the snake (their property).
Description of Work: The drain from the sewer was backing up in our basement. ASR was sent out by our home warranty company. Plumber attempted to clear drain. Plumber got snake stuck and later cut it so he could take his machine. ASR abandoned the line despite promising to remove it. They have not contacted us in over 4 weeks.

Response from Affordable Solutions Heating & Cooling LLC
We are sorry to hear that this customer feels this way. Our take on what happened is this. Our plumber attempted to free a restricted drain line by using a main cable machine. This is a very good and expensive machine. The cable got stuck and this is where the problem comes in. This customer in our opinion doesn't want to spend or is not able to invest at this time is repairing what is broken in the main drain. We did not cause the problem the drain did. I am Todd and I spoke to this customer as stated and explained and yes repeated in an attempt to get this customer to understand that the drain is the problem not our cable. I offered to send another cable with a retriever into the drain but asked the customer what we would do if the second cable would get stuck? Would that be held against us as well? The real issue is that the drain has problems that the customer doesn't want to pay to repair and we are being blamed when all we did was attempt to help free a restricted drain line. What we I learned from this is that from now on we are going to explain what can happen when cabling a main drain before we do so. We are a good reputable company and do not deserve to be called less due to inability in our opinion to do the repair needed.

Five years ago, this company installed this furnace in the dead of winter. Our old furnace had failed, and they were here the next day. The installers had to work in a very cold garage for about 5 hours. It took longer than normal because fitting it onto the air unit wasn't easy. The crews was very polite and as soon as the heat was on we asked them into the house to warm up and have pizza with us before they finished at 9:00pm. Last week, I discovered the furnace wasn't running. I contacted them via e mail that evening, April responded the next morning and Tony showed up at the house to check on the problem the next day. Tony diagnosed the problem in about 15 minutes... it was a bad gas valve. They ordered the part, (no one had it in stock), and this afternoon Tony installed it. It was a little cold in the house for a few days, but hey, things break! Good thing it's not really cold. The $69.00 was for the service fee... we're still in warranty. Can you here that.... it's the sound of heat coming out of the registers!! House is warm... cats are back on the heat vents... all is well. Todd Syx, the owner, runs a great business. His employees are polite and knowledgeable... from office to field, and we're still very happy with the furnace. Like I said, things break. Tony, a veteran of two different branches... Air Force and the National Guard. Thank you for your service, and thank you, Todd for supporting our veterans.

One we ordered from diagnosis. Happy it was not Winter, think the order was slow. The technician was knowledgeable and polite. The company is not good at determining repair dates, scheduling, etc. They are trying to keep up with all the new homeowners with home warranties, but need more help. The (A) ratings are for the technician in Quality, Punctuality and Professionalism. Would use company again? Not sure!

I have a home warranty company that was covering the cost and the labor of the installation of my new heat pump. There were only a couple of providers that are contracted with the home warranty company, and Affordable Solutions was the first available. They came out fairly quickly to diagnose that my unit was bad. However, it was over an additional week to get unit out and installed. I can't say if this was Affordable Solution's fault or not, but they did install it quickly when they got here. Seems to be working properly and they say that they warranty it for the next 10 years. The biggest concern I have isn't with the technicians or the products, it's the fact that not only did they charge my warranty company for the unit and labor, they then charge me for what wasn't covered in the warranty. Granted I understood there were costs not covered - the R22 Refrigerant exchange, any additional wiring, and any additional copper modification needed. Not only did they charge an enormous amount over market value for the R22 exchange ($350), they charged $250 for and quot;copper modificationand quot; which the unit is in the exact same place, no copper was changed in the house, only about 6 inches was used in the new installation, and they charged $150 for wiring modification, which they stated they had to install a new whip and outside box. And another $150 for removal, and $100 deductible for initial diagnosis. Basically because these guys don't make a significant amount of money from the warranty company, they just bend over the end user with over charging each and every piece the warranty doesn't cover. I called 2 other HVAC companies and they call confirmed over charging for services/parts above. When I called to discuss the price, I was told that they were non-negotiable and my other option was for them to remove the unit and I could go with someone else. I was told, and quot;but you have a new unit and it's warrantied, you should be satisfied for what you are paying.and quot; Maybe it's something else I need to take up with my home warranty company, but for Affordable Solutions lack of flexibility, zero interests in hearing my concerns, and in my opinion dishonesty in what fair/reasonable charges should be for those services, I will not recommend them and will make sure people know to use someone else.
Description of Work: Installed new outside 3 ton heat pump.

Unit cost with tax - $1200.00 Customer paid $900.00 Warranty company paid $120.00 to us for running call under our contract. Labor cost my company 4 hours total including picking up the outdoor unit. We lost $180.00. We run a large amount of calls for a flat rate. I do not see how we deserve to get a negative review. An outdoor unit easily bids for 2200.00 retail. This customer paid $900 not even the $1000 stated. This review should be removed. I feel it is unfair.

Thermostat's screen indicated a problem with the batteries. However, when I changed them out (putting in 2 different sets of and quot;good until 2023and quot;) batteries, it still registered an error. I called our Home Warranty policy holder (10Sep14), who told me that Affordable Solutions would call and they did a few hours later. We set up the appointment for between 11AM-1PM the next day. Tony and Fred showed up at 5 minutes until 11 and went right to work trying to figure out the problem. It turned out that the battery contacts in the 18 year old unit were so smashed that they were no longer making proper contact with the batteries. Tony quickly adjusted both contacts and the problem was resolved. Sometimes when you call a Home Warranty policy holder you wonder how good the company that they send out might be. I didn't need to worry at all on this one. Both Tony and Fred were personable and professional. They came in and within a few minutes had the problem ID's and fixed.
Description of Work: Got our heating/AC thermostat working again.

ASR was sent to our house for a service call through a home warranty service. They did not call prior to arrival as we were told they would. Service tech had a cold demeanor, not friendly, barely spoke, was not forthcoming with information. Other service companies wear shoe covers or provide some other protection to your home. Not these guys. We were told the unit needed replaced and that there were some charges that weren't covered by the home warranty. We expected this. We asked for the incidentals in writing: 3/4" water shut-off valve - $100; pressure relief valve drain plumbing - $100; water line connections - $100; old unit removal - $100. 10x markup on the retail cost of these parts! I know because I ended up buying from the hardware store and replaced the unit myself. From calling competitors they also had the highest price in old unit disposal. There is a big difference between running a business for profit and PRICE GOUGING/TAKING ADVANTAGE of people. The "A" in ASR stands for AFFORDABLE!!! I must be missing something. I could never recommend doing business with these folks.
Description of Work: Looked a leaking water heater. Informed us it needed replaced. Attempted to overcharge for many unnecessary incidentals.

We are very sorry that this customer feels this way and feels the need to do harm to our reputation. We strive to be the very best and we stand behind our affordable pricing. We work for a home warranty company and do not control all aspects of these calls. There is a bigger picture. We do wear shoe covers and we will research to see why the technician on site didn't. The pricing on each part is installed price.

Todd came right after we were experiencing continued cooling problems from an undersized system. Todd went through all our options and what would be best for our house. Our biggest concern was the switch out time. He did not schedule the job until he had the manpower do so. They completed the work in one day (11 hours) From our signing the paperwork to our new systems were up and running 6 days later. We never knew how bad our original systems were until the new systems were installed. Our house is always comfortable and our cooling bill has gone down. Thanks Affordable for a job well done. I would highly recommend Affordable for any HVAC work.

I will start off the review by stating that I am an HSA Home Warranty Customer, so they were the ones to dispatch Affordable Solutions Heating & Cooling, LLC. My A/C unit was making loud noises and the fan was not turning. I submitted my claim on Wednesday 8/13/14 through HSA Home Warranty. I had to call Affordable Solutions to schedule my appointment. My appointment was set for Friday 8/15/14 between the hours of 4:00pm and 6:00pm. On Friday 8/15/14, I called Affordable Solutions at 5pm because I hadn't heard from them. I wanted to confirm I was still on their schedule. I was assured that I was still on the schedule and service tech would call en route. 6pm rolls around - no service tech. I called back once more and was told the previous job was running late and that they would still get to me that evening. Another hour and a half go by. At 7:30pm, I called back once more and was told the service tech was finishing up and headed my way. I was warned that it would be about an hour because of travel time. Service Tech, Fred arrived to address the said issue at 9:06pm and was gone by 9:35pm. He said he fixed it. The issue was the unit was low on refrigerant and added 2 lbs. and it was now working. Due to the cool temps, our air was not turned on that evening. On Saturday 8/16/14 when temps did rise, we turned on the A/C unit. Yeah, same problem -- noises and no fan turning. I called and spoke Affordable Solutions once again. I was told that there were no service techs available to come out that day. I was told that Monday was the first option. I proceeded to contact HSA Home Warranty as I needed resolution sooner. During my hold the warranty company, Affordable Solutions called me back to inform me that Todd, the owner of the company, would be coming out himself on Sunday morning between 9:00am - 11:00am. Sunday 8/17/14, we received a phone call from Affordable Solutions around 10:25am. They informed my wife that due to "scheduling conflicts" they were not going to be able to come out that day. My wife gave the phone to me to speak with them. I told them it was unacceptable and I would be contacting my home warranty company. I was told "if you would like to utilize a different vendor, you're more than welcome." I hung up and immediately called HSA Home Warranty. As I was on hold for a supervisor, an Affordable Solutions truck pulled up to my house at 10:35am (just ten minutes after the phone call we received). I hung up the phone and walked toward the truck. As the person got out of the vehicle, I asked "Are you Todd, the owner?" He confirmed. I let him know my displeasure with the phone call I had just received and stated that I find it hard to believe you are still in business with the customer service level I've experienced. Todd, the owner of the company, got all defensive about that and was not professional in how he addressed me. He later apologized and acknowledged the poor customer service. He also diagnosed the A/C unit as needing a new fan motor. Unfortunately, there was not one available on his truck. I was told that someone would be getting the needed motor on Monday morning, first thing and coming out to install it. Monday 8/18/14 - A different service tech arrived just after noon to install the new fan motor - A/C is now functioning. Thursday 8/21/14 - When I arrived home from work, I noticed the house was very warm. I checked the A/C unit outside -- once again, noises and fan not turning!! I called and spoke with Affordable Solutions again. I was asked if I would be available on Friday 8/22/14 between 3:00pm - 6:00pm so someone could come out. I told them that I was actually available now and needed to get the issue addressed. I was told unfortunately that they didn't have anyone available to send that evening. I asked that Todd, the owner, give me a call back. About 5-7 minutes later I received a phone call. It was not Todd, but another Affordable Solutions employee. She informed me she spoke to Todd and he told her to tell me that they installed a universal fan motor on Monday, not an OEM fan motor. She also told me that he said we had spoke about this. I told her no we did not -- I was not aware a "universal" fan motor was installed. Regardless, I was told that they thought the universal motor would fix the problem and obviously it did not. I said, "yes, obviously!" So the next course of action was to find an OEM fan motor on Friday 8/22/14 and come out and replace it once again. Friday 8/22/14 - The same service tech that installed the "universal" motor came back to install the OEM motor. A/C unit is working as I type this review. But for how long?? Only time will tell, and I'll be sure to send updated reviews if the problems continue with this vendor.
Description of Work: 1.) Service call, Diagnosis, & Refrigerant added (8/15/14) 2.) Another service call, a different diagnosis, and couldn't complete repair because part wasn't on truck (8/17/14) 3.) Replaced Fan Motor on A/C unit (8/18/14) 4.) Service Call and re-replaced fan motor on A/C unit (8/22/14)

Mr. [removed member name] has been very very rude to our staff throughout the repair. We responded to the call and handled every issue. I am the owner and I personally went to this customer's home on Sunday. When I exited my truck Mr [removed member name] greeted me with I do not know how your terrible company is in business. This comment comes after he has berated my office girls and had them very upset. The reason that we attempted to use a universal was that the OEM was not available Monday. I wanted to try and provide cooling so we went with a close match. Mr [removed member name] called in and had an issue so I immediately got to work getting the OEM. I thought ahead and had it brought in to the supply house just in case. I personally do not think it is fair that people can go on here and fire off comments against hard working people. This customer has yelled at my staff and has been very rude to us. I left my family while in was sick with a cold on a Sunday because we care about every customer. Thank You.

The office personnel consistently were courteous and professional in communicating with us, Our biggest problem was communicating with the warranty company, but that wasn't ASR's fault. The installation of the new system couldn't have gone better. The installers were very courteous and worked hard without breaks to install the system and get it working. A side note: They were forced to work outside in a rain storm with only an umbrella, but they worked through it without stopping. Overall, we are very pleased with the service and the treatment by everyone in the company with whom we communicated and/or interacted, including the owner. We are satisfied with the experience.
Description of Work: Our A/C wasn't working. We scheduled ASR through the home warranty company. They diagnosed a bad compressor. At our request, they quoted the options of a new compressor, a new heat pump, and a complete new system. Because of the age of the system, we elected to purchase a complete new system, including heat pump and furnace.

ASR was called by HSA home warranty when we made a claim regarding our Central A/C unit not working. Another company had originally been assigned the ticket but backed out due to truck issues. We wasted two days on the other company. So, HSA assigned the ticket to ASR this morning at 11am. I was hesitant due to other reviews on Angie's List. I must say that my experience with ASR was very positive.They definitely exceeded my expectations. ASR called me immediately and scheduled for 3:30 p.m. Around 12:30 p.m., I received a call from the tech saying that he finished his previous job early and could he come over right away. Danny, our tech, was early, diagnosed the problem in less than 10 minutes, he had the part on hand, and had it changed out within another 10 minutes. Wow. So, the cold air is flowing. It was very obvious that Danny is very competent at his job and knew exactly what he was doing.

On Monday, July 7, the warranty company, HSA contacted ASR to see what the problem was and ASR LIED and told HSA That they had called back Thursday and re-scheduled for Monday morning. They did no such thing! Totally unprofessional, unreliable and unorganized. We insisted on using a reputable company at that point. I wish we had seen these reviews before this and not even wasted our time on them.
Description of Work: ASR CAME OUT ON JUNE 26 TO GIVE AN ESTIMATE ON FIXING THE A/C AS THAT IS WHO HSA WARRANTY COMPANY USES. THE TECHNICIAN THOUGHT THEY COULD GET IT ON THE SCHEDULE THE NEXT DAY OR POSSIBLY SATURDAY. THEY CALLED THE NEXT DAY, FRIDAY AND SAID IT WOULD BE THURSDAY, JULY 3, BEFORE THEY COULD COME OUT. THAT WAS FINE. THAT THURSDAY MORNING THEY CALLED AND SAID THEY WERE WAITING ON A PART AND WOULD CALL BACK LATER THAT DAY. THEY NEVER CALLED BACK . OF COURSE THE NEXT DAY WAS THE FOURTH OF JULY SO THAT MEANT MONDAY AT THE EARLIEST WAS WHEN THEY COULD BE CONTACTED AGAIN.
