I chose this company based on the reviews in Angie's List. They were great to work with. Responsive, on time, reminder call for appointments. The work they did was exactly as bid. The installers were professional, thorough, and easy to work with. A family owned business that obviously takes pride in what they do. Very satisfied.
Description of Work: Installed furnace and air conditioning.

It was a Sunday call, they came right away and fixed the central air in just about an hour. Works great now. Only grip was they charged me $187 for it just being a Sunday call. On the other hand, they told me about the charge for Sunday service on the phone right away and were up front and honest about it BEFORE coming over. Good call. I also was happy with them that they took payments on the service and didn't demand payment in full up front. Helped me out a lot on a very hot summer!!!!!!!!! Thank you!!!

We contacted several contractors but liked Wichita Htg & Cooling the best. Bill took the time to walk through and discuss the problems with our current unit and look at the many different options they had available. We did not feel pressured to do anything more than what we were comfortable with and we are confident that Wichita will be there for us down the road. The crew was also great to work with - very professional and attentive to detail. They did an excellent job of cleaning up after they were done and both Bill and Chris Wichita stopped by after the installation to make sure we were happy with everything. We will continue to use them to do our annual service and inspections. We highly recommend them!!
Description of Work: Air Conditioner failed to cool our home during a week of 80 degree temps in March. Discovered the outside unit was leaking oil and freon and was the original unit so replacement was needed. We decided to replace both the ac and heating units with high efficiency units.

I had the AC inspection scheduled for 2 days after I prepaid for the plan. The technician was about a little late but I did get a phone call ahead of time asking if that was ok. The technician was very professional and they recharged my freon. Even though this company is a Carrier provider they did not try to sell me on a new system. My system is about 7 years old but still works fine, and I was expecting to get a sales pitch that I did not want, but happily there was none. I would definitely use them again.
Description of Work: I purchased the plan for AC inspection in the spring, and furnace inspection in the fall.

Chris showed up at my house to sign a contract and ensure I understood everything. The install was scheduled for 3 weeks later. The crew of two showed up at the expected time. The 2 guys were very personable and constantly working. Upon completion, they covered in detail everything that had been done and ensured I had no questions. They cleaned up all work areas very well. Chris did a follow-up with me to make sure I was a satisfied customer. My annual maintenance will now only be with Wichita Heating and Cooling.
Description of Work: I have a 27 year old A/C unit that is very expensive to run during summer months. I contacted 3 different companies for an estimate on a Carrier heat pump. I was very specific about the brand, due to the research I had done. The first 2 companies spent almost 2 hours at my house trying to sell me everything under the sun. When Chris from Wichita showed up, he was in my house less than 45 minutes. He looked over my present equipment, asked a few questions and explained the process in detail. Two hours after he left, his estimate was in my e-mail box. His estimate was $1500.00 (yes, that number is correct) lower than the next closest (for the exact same model) and they even handle the rebate part.

They came out a week later and installed the humidifier. They were very prompt and courteous. The installation is very professional looking and works great. I would use again.
Description of Work: We called for an estimate for installing a new humidifier on our furnace. They gave an estimate, which I thought was a little high, but the reviews were great for the company.

Easy to schedule an appointment. Explained their services the day of service and any future possible needs. Two individuals worked at the same time, one outside and one inside. Very friendly, told me their concerns upfront of any additional costs and why. Very mindful of taking care of my house inside ans outside. Very good experience and a great family owned company to know about.
Description of Work: Checked two year old cooling system, cleaned outside unit, pressure and temperature indicated it needed coolant, added required coolant. Called before they came, on time, explained their process with my unit, any possible future concerns, neat, clean. Price was fair. Will have them in the fall for heating unit check and next spring again.

My furnace was not working so I selected Wichita Heating and Cooling based on Angie's List recommendations. The service was provided the same morning I called. The serviceman, Aldo, was courteous, knowledgeable, professional, and any other complimentary terms you can think of! I would definitely recommend Wichita to everyone. Thank you, Wichita, for service I can trust, and thank you Angie's List for the recommendation!
Description of Work: Replaced the igniter in my furnace and performed maintenance checks.

We are happy with the services performed. Our AC is working again and we would recommend this company to others.
Description of Work: We had a technician from Wichita come to repair our AC unit that was not blowing cold air. The technician arrived the same afternoon that we called and installed a new capacitor and additional hardware. He was professional and told me what he had done and provided recommendations regarding what we could do to increase the efficiency of the unit.

We have worked with several different people, all of which have been quite professional and take the time to explain what is going on to both my wife and I. They are also quite punctual.
Description of Work: I have been using Wichita for three years now for Spring and Fall system maintenance, and have had them fix a couple of things (a couple of winters ago the fan stopped working and they came out on a Saturday to fix it). My mother in law recommended them to us, and I noticed that they installed the system originally (1982!), which is why I first started working with them.

The serviceman (Kevin) called about 20 minutes before he arrived to let me know he was en route. Arrived on time, went right to work. Most of the work was just servicing the furnace, but he did make some repairs and replaced a part on the humidifier. It had been about 4 years since any service had been performed. He answered my questions regarding ways to get more heat to certain rooms and what changes to make if I do major renovation work. He also recommended a humidifier setting.

My wife and I woke up one Saturday morning in the winter and the temp in the house was 52. Called another company and left a message with their answering service and never heard back. Called Wichita and spoke with their answering service and within ten minutes was talking with one of their repair men who walked me through a process to check for most likely problems, when those options were exhausted he came out to find our motor had cut through its own power cable. This was repaired and I was just charged the service fee which I thought was quite reasonable. Was very happy with them and have worked with them three to four times now, each time more impressed as their service is consistent and their workers have been with the same company for twenty to thirty years. Fantastic company to work with.

I called them because they were the best price and we set a day for them to come out. They showed up right on time and got right to work. The crew was very knowledgeable and hard working. All of them were respectful, answered my questions and explained my instructions for the up keep on my air conditioner. They had an awesome crew and company.
Description of Work: They installed a 3 1/2 ton air conditioning unit in my two story, 1500 square foot home. They hauled the old unit away for me as part of the service.
