The gentleman was professional, but I did get the feeling he was trying to sell me on items other than just doing the spring check I needed to have done. He had a whole list of things I should consider, which I didn't think were really necessary to spend money on. Overall, he was great. Good experience.
Description of Work: They did a spring check for our home. This was a Big Deal, which is why the price is so low. I am not sure what their prices are like otherwise.

Response from One Hour Air Conditioning & Heating
Ms [Member name], thank you for your comments to allow us to explain about the other offers available through our company. Many homeowners are unaware of many HVAC products that can improve their comfort and health in their own home. Say, if someone suffers from allergies, we have indoor air quality to help combat many of the allergies found within the home. Many homes that we service do not have an mechanism with their system to ensure that, if their condensate line becomes clogged, it stops the water damage from overflow. Our filter program, delivery to your door, is another way to keep up with filter changes that help run your equipment efficiently. Just these three items would help eliminate some health issues, possible drywall damage in your home and ensure the life of your equipment.

We weren’t all that satisfied with it actually. The Angie’s List deal had said that it was valid to assess the air conditioner and heater but when the guy came, he would only look at the air conditioner. He gave us quote on other work but it was going to be a significant amount of money so we didn’t have them do any other work. The guy was nice about it. He was courteous and he showed up on time. Other than that, we were satisfied with the guy who came out. It was a fairly detailed look at the air conditioning unit. We were sort of expecting that it would be a better assessment of what specifically needed to be done but he basically just told us that it was really old and there wasn’t much to do about it. He was very thorough though. They were responsive.
Description of Work: He did just an assessment of the air conditioner.

Originally it didn't go well because of some issues. It was a communication error, but once they showed up, they were really good. They were responsive and apologized. He was on time for the second appointment. He explained what the problem was and what he needed to do to fix it. It works very well now. The next day someone came out to make sure that it was done right and made sure it was running right. When they schedule, they need to make sure that the technicians can show up. The guys that came out were good, courteous, and professional. I was satisfied with the work that they did and they followed up the next day.
Description of Work: One Hour Air Conditioning & Heating did an inspection and replaced a condenser. It was a big deal purchase. The big deal was $39.

I had One hour out for a simple service to fill my r-22 freon. They were 2 hours late (with no call) and what a discounted rate of $618.00 for freon plus the $49.00 service call. In all in took about three minutes and I refused the outrageous freon fill service costs. Avoid at all cost. Terrible!

Mr. [Members Name], I do apologize for our technician arriving at your home late. We have a new dispatcher in the office and he assures me he called your phone number to tell you we were running behind but he neglected to document his actions. Regardless, we were late and we uphold our corporate slogan, hence I have written a reimbursement check for $49 (the amount you paid to have our technician come to your home and diagnosis your cooling problem). Based on the GPS system in his truck, he was at your home for 45 mins to diagnosis the issue. Unfortunately, R22 units are not being manufactured any longer and the refrigerate as become very expensive as all new systems are using R410 freon. As with most equipment that is, or has become, obsolete their repairs become more and more expensive. I hope that you were able to find another company to address your comfort needs. Check being posted on 5/26/15. Again I apologize for our tardiness. Gillian Collins, Comptroller

After purchasing the big deal, the company called me to set up an appointment and ask about what issues we were having. A nice gentleman came out (I cannot remember his name) and started on his work. He inspected our furnace and humidifier that is attached. He explained all issues that he found in depth with my husband pointing out things and showing him what they should and shouldn't look like. He was very thorough and even though our issue is still a bit of a mystery after his inspection we have not had any issues with the furnace not firing. He was here about 2 hours and did talk to my husband about a service plan they had, but was not pushy in any way. This was a really great deal and we would definitely use this company again!
Description of Work: Furnace inspection big deal. Inspected our furnace that was having an issue with not firing up every time.

came in to service a heat pump that was working - was here half a day - did not seem to know what he was doing and when he left the heat pump was not working so we had to call another company to come fix it in a moment of great weakness we called one hour service again when our gas furnace stopped working; their technician was here two hours and wanted $1100 for a new motor; we called another contractor who fixed it in 40 minutes angies list you usually have good contractors - not this one

I am not upset about the scheduling issue because I know these service technicians may get delayed on their service calls with other customers but it would have been nice to be contacted prior to their arrival letting me know they would be running late. The technician was real personable and spent about 15 minutes with me to give me an estimate on an evaporator and condenser coil cleaning for my HVAC unit. He got his price book and told me it would be around $1250.00 as a discount from $1399.00. He didn't really explain why the cost was so high. I doubt I will chose this company again as I didn't get the level of service I was expecting. Finally, I didn't get a detailed explanation of why the quote was so high.
Description of Work: I called the 1-800 number for scheduling and was very impressed with the person I spoke with. I was told the technician would be at my house to provide an estimate round 5:00 PM EST. On the day of the service call, the technician arrived close to 7:00 PM so maybe this company should change their name.

Description of Work: I purchased a Big Deal for One Hour Air Conditioning & Heating. Now, they maintain my central air conditioning and heating unit and they come twice a year. I subsequently purchased a service contract on an annual basis with them. They were just here the other day during the winter maintenance.

Two young men from the company came to my home to provide serve. They were extremely thorough and explained the what they were looking at while inspecting the system. I felt the cost of the deal was incredibly good given the length of time they spent. In addition, they were very polite and friendly and didn't try to make me feel like an idiot - as some technicians do - while they worked. I would definitely recommend their company to anyone looking for excellent and honest H/VAC service.

The price was very good and that service fine. The problem with this company is that in addition to the service they charged $95 to replace the water pad in our humidifier. If I had been at home this would not have happened. It's very expensive for this service, another cheap deal to get in the door and then overcharge in other things that are not necessary.

The Angie's list deal for a check up was a fantastic price, and they honored that price for my second zone unit. The technician was 3 months out of HVAC school and was very thorough and knowledgeable. While I didn't have any major problems, he indicated that some parts were near the end of their lives and would fail in the next year or two. He offered to replace them, but they charged something like $295 for a part I found online for $12.50. He then offered a monthly service package which included checkups, and parts (although I couldn't use it for parts in the next 30 days, if the parts went out) and would have been a hair better deal than buying the parts out right. So, in the end, I didn't replace the parts. I feel like they got in the door with a great deal, but then tried to get me hooked on an expensive service package.

$Did a very good job of examining and explaining system, pointing out potential and looming problems (including discovery of mouse dung). Price included A/C checkup with anti-algae inspection of condensor coil, among other services. Pleasant, professional, and thorough, but I did not fall for the hype trying to upsell me on their claimed superior air filters that require cleaning.
