I thought at the first visit that the service was excellent; thinking that all my issues were being fixed and I was on my way to a well maintained furnace, but was very disappointed to learn that the problem is not really resolved and requires further fixing. This company came to my house twice during the month of November and the problem is back the very next month. Additionally, on the first visit, they sold me a part for a humidifyer and said they would install it on my maintenance visit (another reason why I felt buying maintenance from them would be a good choice). However, as soon as he got there he told me that I don't have a humidifyer. It was very unsetteling to have him tell me this because it demonstrates to me that he wasn't as thorough as I had first believed him to be. It's hard to understand why he could tell me I needed a part replaced on something I didn't have in the first place. He then tried to sell me a new humidifyer. I'm chosing not to go back to this company because it's my personal opinion that two visits should have fixed the problem for longer than a month or so. The reason for why they said I had a problem was the result of a clog from outside debris. If they had two chances (a repair and a maintenance visit) to clear it and it still isn't clear, I would prefer to take my chances with another company to see if I can get different results. Additionally, the humdifyer situation made me question their credibility.
Description of Work: The problem was fixed initially during that visit, but the problem has since come back. The issue is that my heater doesn't heat, it just blows cold air. I had this company come once for a repair visit, at which time, I was told that maintenance would really help. I paid for them to come back an additional time to do full maintenance. Obviously maintenance didn't work because the problem is back one month later.

It was a great experience all around. The price was competitive and they took a hit to a small degree by traveling so far south of their home office.
Description of Work: The furnace was not turning on. Pressure switch tubing was clogged, which was unclogged. The furnace was then tested and worked normally.

My furnace stopped working sometime in November. My home warranty company called Envirocontrol Systems to check it out. It worked just fine, and no service was performed, but I still paid the deductible. In December, the furnace stopped working again. My home warranty company again called Envirocontrol Systems to check it out. I asked Envirocontrol Systems to call me 30 minutes before arriving. They called, and arrived 20-25 minutes later, before I could make it home from work. Kym diagnosed the problem as a faulty blower motor, but was unable to determine the correct replacement motor due to its age. She removed the motor and took it with her to have an exact match made. I was warned that this could take several days. The next day, they called to say that they found the new motor, and set up an appointment for the following morning, again offering 30 minute call-ahead. They called, and then arrived approximately 20-25 minutes later. Kym installed the new blower motor and tested the system to make sure it worked. They also made sure that I wasn't charged a second time for the deductible (the warranty company wanted to make this a separate incident from November). This was the good news. Now for the bad. In order for them to install the fan, they insisted on cleaning the A/C coils for $195.00. This was not covered by the home warranty company (as it was deemed to be maintenance). Kym would not leave the fan installed without the coil cleaning, and threatened to remove the fan if I did not have the coils cleaned. In the end, I had her clean the coils so I would have heat for Christmas. Long story short: Insist on paying the deductible for your warranty work only. I was pressured into extra services that I may have gotten cheaper elsewhere. Service was prompt, however, and they convinced the warranty company to waive the second deductible.
Description of Work: Replaced a blown fan motor (covered under warranty) and cleaned A/C coils (not covered under warranty).

We are happy that the member recognized the many positive services which our company provided to him: working with his schedule, prompt arrival, telephone notice that we were on the way, advocating for him with the warranty company, finding difficult equipment in a prompt fashion, and keeping his cost to a minimum by recommending that the second warranty deductible be waved. Customers who work with a warranty company must understand that we, at EnviroControl Systems, are also a "customer" of the warranty companies. They dispatch our company, and the warranty company determines what services must be performed. Lack of maintenance may lead to premature failure of parts, and warranty companies may control their costs by directing that maintenance be performed before new parts which the warranty company has provided are installed in the ailing equipment. Warranty companies generally require regular equipment maintenance. Should the warranty company decide that regular maintenance has not been performed, it is likely that maintenance will be required before the warranty company agrees to repair. Individuals with home warranties must be aware that policies have a variety of exclusions, costs which the homeowner must cover out-of-pocket. By choosing to repair his equipment through the terms of his warranty, the member subjected himself to the decisions the warranty company made and the terms of his policy. EnviroControl Systems was sent as an agent of the warranty company; thus, both the member and our company were subject to their warranty company requirements at the time of repair. At no time do we hold our customers hostage, threatening to withhold repair until additional costs are accrued. The fact that we advocated with the warranty company to waive the service fee which the member rightly owed demonstrates our fundamental concern for and fairness with our customers. The $195. 00 cost of the coil cleaning is competitive in the Dayton market. $100.00 of the $195.00 coil cleaning fee was off-set when our company convinced the warranty company to waive the second $100.00 fee.

Response from Lifestyle Comfort Solutions
There are several reasons that this comment took our company by surprise. First, it is a second hand accusation made a relative rather than the homeowners themselves. At no time have the homeowners expressed dissatisfaction with our company. Further, they have continued to call our company regularly for service over the past several years. It would seem that, if they, rather than a relative, were dissatisfied they would discontinue doing business with us or would have informed us of their dissatisfaction on the several occasions we have worked in their home. Any company may make a mistake, but until a customer informs us of concerns we must assume that all is well. The critique strongly implies that our company took $1,300 dollars and, immediately, did not perform. However, our records indicate that in the 12 years these homeowners have worked with our company the total costs for repairs during this extended period do not equal $1,300. Homeowners must understand that all mechanical equipment requires maintenance and, likely, repair during the life cycle of the equipment. This necessary maintenance and repair should not be construed as failure to perform on the part of the installation company.

This company came out and gave me an estimate. They installed a new furnace and A/C and then in late may, early June, we began running the A/C and we noticed water in the basement (we called another company to take a look at it and opened up the walls and found mold and we had to remove the carpet). EnviroControl came out and looked at it, for about 15 minutes. The technician advised me that everything looked and sounded great, no test or checks were preformed, just a visual check. Based on the recommendation from EnviroControl and through the process of elimination, we re-repaired a foundation crack. New water continued to be present int he basement and then they came out and preformed some test and identifying as the furnace being the source of the water. This test was ran around July 7, 2010. We took them to small claims court and we agreed to $2,100.00, but the original bill was $2,784.93. There was a legal agreement on the check saying that if we sign this check, then the warranty would be void. They are trying to take me back to court and they know that I’m going to be deployed in January and I will not be able to show up to court.
Description of Work: My old furnace failed and I contacted them to replace the furnace and air conditioning unit.

The member's account of this event is full of inaccuracies. As he indicated, EnviroControl Systems, Inc. installed a new heat pump system at their Englewood residence in December, 2009. No complaint was lodged until July, 2010. At that time the member contacted our company to report that he had water in his basement. Before EnviroControl Systems was called with any service request or made aware of a problem , the member had concluded the water was the result of a leak in his foundation wall. Photos and documents he provided clearly reveal that a crack in the foundation had been repaired at some point by a previous homeowner. Further, the member had authorized a general contractor to perform significant demolition to the home before he ever called EnviroControl Systems, Inc. Consequently, when our company arrived within 24 hours of first being called, the general contractor and the homeowner had turned off all equipment, and had run dehumidifiers for several days, artificially drying out the areas. This made it impossible for the technician to determine what, if any, role the mechanical system was playing in the problem. In October, 2010, EnviroControl Systems voluntarily entered into mediation under the supervision of the Vandalia Court. At that time a settlement was reached, which our company complied with in the time required. the member contends that he incurred expense which our company did not cover. The charges given to the member by the general contractor were excessive--use of a dump truck to remove a small amount of debris, unnecessarily opening walls, and rent on a dehumidifier that exceeded the cost to buy one, to name just a few. In violation of the discussion we had during mediation, and the later advice of his own attorneys, the member continued to contend that signing a standard Ohio release of lien to accept payment would violate his warranty. In an effort to convince the member otherwise, our company provided him with written assurance from the equipment manufacturer that his warranty rights were secure. Despite this effort, he continued to refuse to sign a standard Ohio release of lien and to accept the court-ordered settlement amount. We further demonstrated that his warranty rights were secure when, in December, 2010, he again called with a complaint which turned out to be a factory defect. Rather than repair, EnviroControl Systems, Inc. advocated for the member, and under the terms of Tempstar's No-Hassle warranty, we installed an entirely new piece of equipment at no cost to them for equipment, material, or labor. At no time did EnviroControl Systems, Inc. threaten to take the member to court during a deployment. The mediation agreement contained a court-ordered timeline. Had the member continued to refuse to sign a standard Ohio release of lien, the only step left after mediation was a hearing. Any hearing ordered would have resulted from the members actions, rather than a direct action by our company. The final agreement signed by the members clearly states the settlement is a COMPROMISE OF A DISPUTED CLAIM, and that the settlement may not to be construed as an admission of liability on the part of EnviroControl Systems, Inc. by whom liability is expressly denied. It is the position of EnviroControl Systems, Inc. that the member over-reacted, and authorized costly repairs to the foundation before involving EnviroControl Systems, Inc. Having mishandled the situation, he then looked for someone else to pay for his mistake.
