calls but I also had them put in a brand new AC and furnace a couple of years
ago. I find them to be trustworthy and not out to gouge you for
something that is not necessary. Their pricing and overall business
practice is excellent. I won't use anyone else and I would recommend
them highly!
"Dear customer, Unfortunately with an R-22 system, there are no alternatives other than charging the unit with R-22. Regarding the part that you allegedly brought into our office, our insurance coverage designates what we are insured to do. We cannot sell a part over the counter as we do not even have an in-house parts outlet. Our coverage is for our own employees and will not cover a situation such as a consumer do-it-yourself project. Any warranty part must be diagnosed and serviced by our technicians or the manufacturer will not honor the warranty. I hope this clarifies some of the points that you brought up in your review. Arctic Air Heating and Cooling Company"
Nothing more to add.
"In review of (member name removed) complaint to you, our company is set up on a flat rate pricing guide, which means that the customer knows in advance of the cost for repair. The service technician advises the customer regarding the cost, afterward the customer must authorize the work to be done by signing the authorization part of the service invoice allowing the service technician to proceed with the repair to the system. The flat rate system is devised of a one price depending on the nature of the repair. Labor, materials and parts are figured in the one price. The customer knows in advance what he/she will pay for the repair. The Flat rate program is an industry program that many HVAC companies currently use to avoid price controversy and variables in repair pricing. This actually protects the customer depending on the speed of the various service technicians, avoiding hourly rates.Some technicians are slower than others. So for the same repair, we charge the same price for every customer. This process also eleviates variables in pricing. (member name removed) signed the authorization to proceed with the repair utilizing our flat rate pricing. If(member name removed) didn't wish to proceed with the repair, he could have used a company that does not utilize flat rate pricing. After authorizing the repair, (member name removed) complained to Angie's List regarding the flat rate pricing. This is precisely why the proceedure is explained in advance in it's entirety and why the customer must sign the authorization prior to the repair. When the repair is completed, the customer signs the acceptance of work performed area of the invoice, which says that the customer is satisified with the work performed. I hope this clarifys this matter. Respecfully, Arctic Air Heating and Cooling Company"
The service technician was very friendly, cordial and knowedgeable. He evaluated the situation quickly, provided an estimate and indicated he could complete the job the next day, which he did.
The trip out to evaluate the situation was no charge, although we incurred a trip charge the day he repaired the flue pipe, which is included in the overall cost. We saved 15% off the service charge, because we had done business with them before and had their sticker displayed on the furnace.
Price gets a C (fair - literally) meaning it was a fair price given my situation. I did not have alot time to get cost comparisons without incurring additional trip costs. I wanted to get flue pipe replaced asap and assumed the price was reasonable based on past shopping experience for heating and air conditioning in the past. Artics prices have been competitive and one of many reasons I chose them originally, but the work only took an hour, which feels pricey without comparison.
Overall, the job was completed to my satisfaction and I would recommend them for consideration.
