The install of the geothermal system went fairly smoothly however the cleanup work has still not been completed after nearly 5 months and the insulation work was not installed as promised. This company has no followup process as they have never called me yet they continue to make promises when I call them. I am going to ask the Water-Furnace company (manufacturer of the Geothermal unit) to provide me with another distributor of their product to service my warranty because I simply cannot believe what I am told by Krueger.
Description of Work: Install Series 5 Geothermal system.

Chris was great to work with and extremely knowledgeable. He took his time explaining everything to us and worked with us to ensure we got all the discounts and tax credits we were entitled to as well. Geothermal is definitely a more expensive option up front, but we think it will pay off in the future.
Description of Work: We are building a new home and wanted geothermal for our HVAC system. They walked us through our options, did all the duct work and installation, and drilled the wells for the loop field.

Krueger sent a man out that very afternoon. While the problem ended up being something simple, he thoroughly checked out our entire plumbing system to make certain our water supply was safe. He fixed the problem and it has not recurred. On this occasion as on others, Krueger has been prompt, professional, and knowledgeable. We will continue to do business with them in the future.
Description of Work: We have used Krueger to service our HVAC units for years and been very satisfied with their work. Recently, we experienced a plumbing issue: black water suddenly flowed from the kitchen faucet.

Bad.
Description of Work: The representative from krueger mechanical, Chris showed up right on time and had a professional appearance, but thats as far as it went. I called them for an estimate on a complete hvac job, by the time they called me back, I had many other appointments scheduled but fit them in 1.5 hrs after the appointment ahead of them, but told him there was a possibility he may run into a competitor if the ran long, and of course they did. Chris was VERY rude to me and the representative from air services. But said he would get some numbers together and let me know, and took off after being there 5-10 minutes. Now a week later, still no estimate.

My wife and I decided to do a complete rehab of, and addition to, a recently purchased '70s ranch house. While the Carrier HVAC system in the house still worked fine, it was 25+ years old and we felt that it made sense to replace the system while the walls and ceilings of the house were opened up. Being an engineer and a former procurement manager for Coca-Cola, I became personally involved in the selection of vendors and equipment for the HVAC and water heating systems. My preference was for a Carrier system but I knew that Carrier had a reputation of being more expensive than other brands and we were trying to control our costs. As an after thought, I decided that I also wanted to look at a ground source heat pump (geothermal) system as an option- knowing that the initial higher equipment costs would be recovered over time due to the much greater efficiency. I identified three local HVAC dealers and sent them bids for the job. Surprisingly, Krueger Mechanical's bid with Geothermal (the only one responding to the Geothermal option), came in at about the same price as Carrier's with a conventional HVAC system. Even more surprising was that they were bidding Bryant equipment which was exactly the same as Carrier branded equipment Carrier was bidding. The installation of the new systems was relatively painless. Krueger worked with me and we discussed duct placement, zones, etc. For the geothermal line sets, we decided to go with horizontal trenching rather than vertical boring. While this ripped up our lawn, it was already ripped up due to a new septic system and lateral lines required as a result of our addition. There was a several week delay in the delivery of the geothermal units. These units were a new design and there was a delay in releasing them by the manufacturer. We were not living in the house at the time and the delay did not affect us. Krueger designed our hot water system. We have a 60 gallon hot water storage tank. Waste heat from one of the geothermal units is used to heat the water in the tank. The tank feeds two Rinnai tankless demand water heaters. Depending on how much hot water is being called for, and how hot the water is in the storage tank, none, one, or both of the Rinnai's will kick in to provide hot water. With three teenagers and a jacuzzi tub in the house, I can claim that we have never run out of hot water even with the dish washer and washing machine going at the same time! We have been very happy with our HVAC and hot water systems installed by Krueger Mechanical. Sure, we have had some hickups along the way, but we have found the folks at Krueger to be personable, timely and responsible with regards to getting service issues resolved. We have also been absolutely thrilled with the cost savings on our electric and gas bills! Zeke Fairbank and Judy Smith, M.D.
Description of Work: Complete replacement of our 25+ year HVAC system and water heater. Two new Bryant high efficiency HVACs with 7 thermostatically controlled zones, new ducting with electromechanical dampers, two Carrier Geothermal heat exchangers- one with a desuperheater, and two Rinnai tankless demand water heaters.

Very unprofessional job! They promised to cover our losses, and yet they gave us a bill for payment for the entire contract - despite their many damages THEY caused, and promises to 'make it right'! Now they are threatening to put a lien on my property and not pay for their destruction. Public records also show where others have not been paid by Krueger, and now they are trying to bully money from me! They had one excuse after another, about why they left us with out heat when it was frigid (more than once each for most of an evening), why they left leaky connections and flooded the carpet, why they tripped the power and left no power, why our belongings were stolen from the property, told us we were 'too involved' in making sure they did what they agreed to do, why their measurements were wrong in ordering the correct equipment, why they left trash and didn't clean up, why they didn't have the right equipment etc etc etc Worst experience I have ever had in a remodel/upgrade project!!!
Description of Work: While installing a Groung Source Heat Pump, Krueger damaged our property, destroyed other property, and illegally took personal belongings (AC compressor, heat exchanger, high pressure lines and more for wood stove). Includes large amount of copper taken from inside of home. Destroyed connection for wood stove and multiple damages inside home including ceiling, walls, cabinets, floor, miniblinds, etc. Also left much trash and drywall splatter with an unauthorized 'repair' to a hole in the ceiling which THEY caused. Drywall splatter also on the outside retaining walls from their 'setup', torn hole in linoleum in utility room, damaged walls and woodwork. Drywall splatter also inside kitchen cabinets, on walls, custom miniblinds (destroyed), floors, countertops, appliances, and personal/kitchen belongings.
