UPDATE 2: I tried them again with the same result. Terrible service. We had a technician come out to diagnose a problem with our humidifier. He was a nice guy and discovered we have a bad humidistat. He didn't have the part, so I was told he would go back to the office and order it and I would be contacted with an installation date. I paid over $100 for a diagnosis fee. The technician told us it would likely cost an additional $120 for the part and installation. When we called back a few days later (because we never received a follow up call), we were told the part was not ordered, and it would cost approx $220. They asked "Would we just like to buy a brand new humidifier." I was stunned. I feel like a fool giving this company a second chance. UPDATE: I was personally contacted by Todd and he apologized (also see Response below). We had a nice chat, and I'll be giving Family Danz a second chance the next time I need service. Had a leaky heat exchanger. The tech evaluated the problem and said he thought it was the drain line or the drain pan. Said he would first blow out the drain line to see if that helped. If it didn't help, he said the service charge would be applied to fixing the drain pan. Turns out the problem was the drain pan. When the pan started leaking again, I called the office every day for 7 days and left messages with the receptionists and others. Not once did I get a phone call back. A simple return phone call would have been nice. Not only did they lose any future business from me, but I had just received a quote for a new A/C unit and there is no way I would have them do the work. I have had to contact another company to fix the original problem.
Description of Work: Fix of a water leak in my heat exchanger for the A/C.

This was our Fault. We had very poor follow up at our office. We dropped the ball and misplaced the customers paperwork. Also the customer was not called back soon enough for follow up. I apologize for our lack of service and will refund you 100% for the service call. Please call me at 427-8685 and ask for Todd Danz.

They were here on time. They did the job in one day and it has been running good ever since. It’s more efficient now. I haven’t yet made up my mind if I would use them again because they aren’t really local.

It was a pleasure doing work for the member. We are a locally owned and operated company. Our main office is in down town Albany near the RCA dog. We have phone numbers for Delmar ( our company was started in sligerlands out of my fathers house in 1978 ) 439-2549,Troy 273-5927 ( we used to have a warehouse in troy which served the Ren. county and saratoga county areas ) We have since consolidated to one larger location. We are located at the edge of 787,I90, and the thruway entrance at exit 24. So we can get anywhere pretty quickly. Our Clifton Park # is 371-7031. Thank you for your response. If you have any questions please call Todd Danz at 427-8685

Boiler installed in 2008. We have had it maintained every year since. They have had to come out 3-5 times a year when it just doesn't turn on. They have already had to replace a damper motor and transformer, as well as many service calls for the boiler just not turning on. They have also replaced the power vent for the boiler as part of a renovation. For the power vent, the owner was out, and said he would have someone come do an estimate. They came, we thought to do the estimate, but actually did the work, then charged us $1000. When I asked for an itemization, the answer I got was "Ted said it was $1000. that's what it costs." They were just here again tonight, for at least the third time for the same problem (boiler not sensing that the water level was low, so no heat.). $380. For 52 minutes work, including the time to write the bill. The serviceman who was here tonight must have thought it was installed by someone else, since he asked the following questions during his time here: "how come they haven't fixed why it doesn't sense?" "who installed this, anyway?" When he learned that his company had installed it, suddenly it wasn't an issue of poor installation, but a "maintenance issue." We have a maintenance contract with them, which I pointed out. He replied "well, it's not part of the usual maintenance." Lots of double talk. They seem dishonest (no estimate, work done without approval), with poor quality work (a new boiler shouldn't need 3-5 service calls per year in the first 2 years, and bad with details (number of times we have been told something will happen and it never does unless we call, then they have no idea what we are talking about.) We would not recommend using this company.
Description of Work: Had a new steam boiler installed in 2008. Numerous service calls since then, including replacing the power vent, a transformer, a damper motor, and numerous service calls

Response from Family Danz Heating & Air Conditioning Inc
The boiler was replaced in 2008 and we have been back to replace a bad damper motor and a bad transformer all under warranty at n/c to customer. I apologize for the inconvenience of havinig a few problems with the boiler. We were responsive when called and repaired problems under warranty. The power venter that the customer is talking about was installed by another contractor. The power venter that they installed was the wrong size and type for their boiler. This was causing the unit to shut off and not work correctly. Our service tech noted this and Ted Danz (owner of the company) visited the customers house looked at the situation and gave the customer a ballpark figure of about $1000.00. The customer called Ted back at our office and said please proceed with the work. We then ordered the materials sent a tech to their house and installed the correct power venter. When we were finished the bill came to just over $1000.00 but we honored our original cost of about $1000.00. That is what we charged them. They complained when the job was done that the price was to high and we never told them how much it would cost. We offered to remove the power venter and they could then use someone else or shop around. They chose to pay the $1000.00. We want everyone to be happy with our service. We would be more than happy to revisit customers house at N/C to go over our work and discuss any other issue's they may have. Please call Todd Danz @518-427-8685. Thank you for your feed back.

He got the problem fixed right away, which I am happy about. He was very knowledgeable. Everything is computerized now so he was able to pin point the exact shortage immediately. The air conditioner has been fine since he fixed it and it has not had any more problems. He was in and out very quickly and they were reasonably priced.

They were very good. I discussed the size of the unit with them and he suggested that the system that they installed was the best choice for supporting the duct work already in my home. I thought that was very professional of him and thoughtful. I was impressed with the service.

I have used the company for two seasons. The company comes in the Fall and Spring to complete the maintenance agreement on my hot water heater and central air unit. They send me a post card when my service is due. Then, I call them to set up an appointment. They are very flexible in working around my schedule. They offer good communication by giving me an explanation of what the service involved and if any repairs are needed. With the agreement, I receive 15 percent off on parts and 10 percent off on labor if any repairs are required.
Description of Work: I have a yearly maintenance agreement with them. On the most recent visit, they completed a maintenance check for my central air conditioning unit. My home is 3800 square feet. They cleaned the unit, changed the filter, and ensured it was running in a safe, efficient manner. No additional repairs were required as all was in good working order.

The work this company did for me was last winter. I lost all heat and I was in an emergency. They brought me space heaters and were working on the new install in one hour. They really went out of the way to keep me warm and to help me in my time of need. I was really impressed with them. It's not common that you find a company that goes that extra mile for you. I think they did a great job and they went above and beyond their call of duty.
Description of Work: A new oil furnace was installed by this company. They put in a Carrier oil burner.

Company was nice to deal with on the phone. Had to set this type of appointment more than 6 weeks in advance. Which seems like a bit too long to me. Though they do offer same-day emergency service if necessary, even on Thanksgiving! Appointment was for 7:30 am, and technicians arrived at 7:50 am. Wish they had called to confirm appointment a day or two in advance. Or had called to let us know they'd be a bit late. Service took about 1/2 hour, and technicians were polite and professional. We were not given an estimate for the service needed. Nor did we ask for one. Overall, we are pleased with the service they provided. Will most likely call them again in the future.
Description of Work: Regular maintenance check of our gas-powered forced hot air heating system. Cleaned both air filters. Replaced a nearly worn-out igniter.
