Emergency Services Offered
Services we offer
For residential customers, Prime installs furnaces, boilers, air conditioners, heat pumps, control systems, duct work, water heaters, and more. On the commercial side, Prime Heating and Air Conditioning does new construction and retrofit jobs. In addition, Prime is also a 24/7 emergency service provider for both residential and commercial.
Neal and Duane Carr did an excellent job with replacing our water heater. We had 3 previous plumbers attempt to repair or replace our water heater before we solved the issue with Prime Heating and Air. They are honest, trustworthy, and professional with their services. They were on time, left the area clean and worked diligently while at the job. We highly recommend Prime Heating and Air.
Description of Work: We needed to replace or repair an existing water heater.

These guys are extremely knowledgeable, prompt, and courteous. The price of the furnace with installation was very reasonable.
Description of Work: During an appointment to have old furnace cleaned and inspected, it was determined that i should purchase a new furnace. Two weeks later a new one was installed. I only wish i had decided to purchase prior to having the added expense of the initial cleaning.

The parts came in a few days later and he returned and completed the assignment. The test went well and I was happy with the results. Cold weather is on the way. I signed the job complete pad, but was hoping to get a print out of what was preformed on the unit and actual cost of the parts.
Description of Work: My furnace would not ignite. The serviceman tested the equipment and determined that he needed to order (2) parts to complete the information system.

All in all, it went very well. Would hire again for sure.
Description of Work: I was terrified to find a company to just do a routine cleaning of our on demand natural gas HE boiler, but I came to Angie's list, and I'm so glad that I did! We have a very expensive system, and I didn't want someone who didn't know what they were doing to mess it up. The gentleman from Prime Hearing and Air must've done a thorough job because I could see where dirt that had been cleaned out of the blower was swept up and cleaned up by him. Very nice to see he not only did the job, but was courteous enough to clean up after himself. đ

Work was scheduled within a week. It took two visits but leaks were fixed. A/C hadn't been serviced in years and everything was cleaned and adjusted. I plan to have them back to replace older parts (coil, etc) to bring A/C up to modern standards.

Neal stopped by with an estimate within one day of my call. The big AC company (who also put in a new heating system 2 years prior) couldn't even schedule an estimate for 3 weeks. No Thanks! The quote was competitive and I selected Prime to do the work. They committed to a 2 week away install and were here on time, ready to go. In at 8:30 am, done and system operation verified by 11:30 am.

Duane was incredibly responsive, helpful and professional. On one of the first, hottest days of the season, we got a same day appointment - though his day was full (thank you so much again!). And this amongst calling multiple other companies who could not, some didn't even return my call (were booked out days/week). Duane was thorough, and gave helpful advice for going forward. Overall helping to get us out of current "overheated" state, while offering options and suggestions for future. Pricing was very reasonable, we will definitely look to Prime Heating and Air for any future air/heating issues. Very thankful to have found this honest, helpful company!

I contracted with this company for my yearly AC inspection for $81. They were punctual and communicative. I did not read angies list checklist though, After completion I received a receipt that included no information other than the price paid and charged especially no feedback as to work performed. Any time previously I have had this work perfomed it was $59 and they replace the air filter with a product they provided. This company used a filter next to my air conditioner, installed it I a manner not ideal bent, left the trash next to the furnace and never notified anyone of any issues with the furnace filter. My wife contracted with them upon leaving for our winter furnace inspection and paid up front for it. This is my last dealing with this company for poor attention to detail for at best average quality. I would love a refund on the winter inspection minimally, so I can go back to my non-angio list provider.

Thank you for having us out to perform your A/C clean and check. A receipt was sent to the email you provided Angieslist. if you did not receive one, please call and request another and confirm that we have the right email address. There are many sizes and types of filters used, we prefer to use the filter the cust. is using, unless otherwise told. Which we were not. Again you should have received an email detailing what was done. We did not receive an email saying it was a bad email address, along with not receiving any phone call from you saying you did not receive yet. We will contact you, send another detailed receipt and address any issues you may have.

Scheduling for both estimate and contracted work went as planned. Neal and Duane were punctual and professional. They installed furnace, a/c and water heater and cleaned up everything as discussed. They did forget the new thermostat, but promised to schedule to do that soon and have already done so. I liked that they are responsive to not only phone calls, but email and texting! I have owned several homes and hired many contractors over the years, it can be difficult to find honest and reliable companies. Prime Heating is one of those companies! I highly recommend them.
