Our central air system was blowing air, but unfortunately it wasn't cold. We found this out right at the inside temp reached 80. Restano was able to send a tech the next day. He arrived and was able to quickly diagnose the problem after I described the situation. He charged the system with R22, did a quick check for obvious problems/leaks, & gave us a few pointers on servicing the A/C. The refrigerant cost $38 for the first pound and $25/lb after that. Although he told me the cost before charging the system, I was figuring it would take maybe 2 pounds. I was a little surprised to find out it was 7 pounds for $188. Labor is fairly expensive also with this company. Accepted angies list coupon. Overall, glad it was a quick fix and happy to have our central air back.
Description of Work: Inspection of central air system which was not blowing cold air. Added refrigerant to the system.

He called me back and was arrogant. He said it was $150.00 for an emergency service call and he said he wouldn?t do anything until Monday unless the furnace went below 40 degrees. He just seemed like we were bothering him. We went with another company, and it turned out the fan belt was loose and needed to be tightened.
Description of Work: It was a Friday evening and our house was warm so we turned on the air conditioning. It made a really loud noise. Restano Plumbing, Heating and Cooling, Inc. is supposed to have 24 hour, 7 day emergency service so we called them about it.

Response from Restano Plumbing Heating & Cooling Inc
We are very sorry the customer did not have a positive response from our technician on call. We do charge a diagnostic fee on nights and weekends of $105.00 and do tell the customer up front and let them make the decision if they want service or would rather wait for a weekday. An arrogant -don't bother me attitude is not tolerated and we will have a review and discuss OUR Company policies with the technician

The sales process to installation was very smooth. Ron, the sales rep was very knowledgeable and described the benefits and trade-offs of each model. The guys who installed the heat pump were quick and neat with the installation. Everyone I encountered at Restano was friendly and they made me feel at ease with my purchase decision.
Description of Work: I had a Heat Pump and Air Cleaner installed to an existing furnace.

Restano came out to install a humidifier in our basement. We had gotten quotes from several other companies and their prices were on par with the quotes we received. The technician was very punctual and installed the humidifier with, what I thought, was no problems. A few days later I noticed that our basement rug was soaked through. The tech installed the drain line incorrectly. He was draining it outside where it had frozen and backed up into our basement. We called the 24 hour service number and a new tech showed up within a few hours. He turned off the humidifier and explained that the line was installed incorrectly. Some one was then scheduled to come out the next morning to dry out the basement and correct the issue. The following day they corrected the issue and did dried out the basement with large fans. I'm still concerned about mold and will need to keep an eye out. I do give them credit for their quick response but was pretty disappointed that it was installed wrong in the first place. They would've gotten an A if wouldn't have been for that issue but their quick and thorough response was impressive.
Description of Work: Installed a whole house humidifier

They are a little expensive but they have 24 service. I like them and I have no problems with the humidifier. He did a good job and he seemed honest. When he bought a part, he brought back the old part and gave it to me. He let me have the old part so that I could see and I really respected the honesty. I like their work.

The house is 80 years old and recently purchased by my daughter. The house inspector suggested that the boiler had never been serviced and needed to be cleaned. The man from Restano came promptly, inspected and cleaned the unit and checked for any further repairs needed. There were none and the cost was exactly as told to me on the phone.

The A/C broke on one of the hottest days of the year. Our technician returned my call promptly and was at my home within an hour. He gave me two possibilities as to the cause of the problem. He replaced one part but the unit continued to malfunction. Unfortunately, we had to replace the second part to get things running. Our technician promised to return the next day at a time that was convenient for me; he called the next morning to confirm everything, arrived on time and replaced the second part. He was very professional and knowledgeable and explained the system operation and malfunction thoroughly. He even referred me to the company Website so that I could print a coupon to lower my price.
Description of Work: They responded to my call on a Sunday night, diagnosed the problem and quoted the price for repair. Returned the next day with the appropriate parts and had the A/C system up and running in no time.

I am happy with their work. My only complaint is that the permits were not applied for when the work was complete. The work was done right before Christmas, so I can understand that the paperwork was delayed.
Description of Work: We hired Restano to correct problems caused by another HVAC contractor who was not licensed to work in Pgh - although he did not tell us that. The job involved: 1) Replacing interior wiring with exterior wiring to the AC unit. 2) Moving exhaust so that it was not under a window. 3) Cutting into side of furnace to allow replacement of filters. New furnace was so close to wall that filters could not be changed. 4) Applying for HVAC permits. Restano's workers showed up on schedule and did the work quickly, professionally, and well. When the HVAC inspector did not contact us after a few months, I called. Michael Restano said that he would apply for the permits immediately. The HVAC inspector then came and approved all the work.

I had a very positive experience. My furnace was making strange noises. I called Restano after finding them highly rated on Angie's List. A technician was at my home withing two hours. He (Jason) was very efficient, knowledgeable and professional. I knew the furnace was old. He showed me what was wrong with a fiber-optic camera. He recommended replacement. The replacement crew, one week later was equally impressive. Their work was very neat. Again, they were very professional.

They were very good at providing service. The technician called me and asked me a bunch of questions and I explained what had happened. He came out with the part that I needed and didn't have to go to a parts store. With the questions that he asked me on the phone he had determined the problem and come out prepared. There was only one gentleman who came out to do the work. He did the work in about an hour and I was getting normal heat again.

Price was determined with company on the phone prior to setting up appointment, technician arrived on time as scheduled, and seemed comfortable with servicing older units, even though he wasn't familiar with the specific brand. Replaced filters on 2 units, gave the other 2 filters to me to wash (i.e. permanent filters), he vacuumed the units, checked wiring, cleaned thermostats, etc. The only criticism I had was that a lot of debris had fallen into the grills on top of the units, and he could only slide the grills aside on 2 units to vacuum out the construction debris. I spent a hour myself with a hammer and screwdriver and vacuum to clean the other two, after I figured out how to open the grilles on those. All it would have taken on his part was more effort and time to remove the top grilles which were stuck in place due to age. Overall, units seem to be working fine now, with better temperature balance. He left extra filter material for me to replace in the fall, and recommended a once a year visit for maintenance.
Description of Work: Technician came to apartment to service 4 (four) thru-the-wall heat pumps in different rooms (i.e. combination of air conditioner and heating in one unit). Units were very dirty, and as we had just bought the place and renovated it, we had no idea of how often or how well they had been serviced in the past. I should point out that the price was well below that quoted by another company that had been recommended to me.

Description of Work: Tech came over late on a cold saturday night to diagnose my furnace problem. He was able to get it working enough that we had heat, but still needed a replacement part. Technician came over on the following monday with the new draft inducer and installed it. He also installed a new standing pilot since ours didn't have the right kind of cover, and was blowing out 1 or 2 times a day.

Things were off and running duplex utilities separated and new drain line installed. System vented out the side of the building and tub was set. Steve was the main guy and Frank did the Cast drain (the only good part of the job). I noticed that some 2 in copper walked off the jobsite from the boiler I demo ed but I really was not that worried about it until I scrapped my old lines and they were worth a bundle. Called Steve direct and he was at another job site the day he was supposed to be on mine. I got a call requesting $3000.00 and I paid it. Thinking we were almost done, I was told that a big job did not pay and they wanted to ensure I would pay. I did. Steve was in and out at times but finally finished all work requested. Another $3000.00 for a total of $6000.00. Way too much for the work performed. I paid it. Steve no longer works for them as told by Frank at another call I used them for. I wonder why seems Peter was robbing Paul to pay Sam if you will on time and job sites. I am a rookie at this and I got taken. I will not make this mistake again. I should have got a written estimate and timetable - again rookie mistake.
Description of Work: I had Restano out to remove a cast drain line, separate utilities in the duplex I own (build duplex water manifold - dual check, pressure regulator valve, ball valves). They also installed new shower tub and I supplied the surround. Water lines to washer, bathroom, kitchen, and one run up to second floor. They stated old plumbing system would need to be vented so they cut an exit hole in the side of the building for the vent pipe instead of using chimney stack not the prettiest.

Response from Restano Plumbing Heating & Cooling Inc
The job we did for this member was completed in February 2008 (also inspected by the Allegheny County Plumbing Inspector). He never stated any concerns at that time. It is not unusual to have many jobs running at the same time due to the fact that some stages (waiting for parts or inspections) can keep you off a job for hours or days, so in order to keep employees working we schedule accordingly. It is also normal for most contractors to ask for 1/2 down to start and the balance at completion of the job. As far as missing demo items, this is the first we have been made aware of this. We would have investigated and taken appropriate action on such a matter. As he noted in his letter Steve no longer is employed with us. We are disappointed that the member is not satisfied and wished he had called us during or after the job completion to discuss his concerns. We value all our customers and will work to resolve any issues we are made aware of, however, we do not feel we owe a refund on this job.

This was as professional a job as it can get. The office staff was courteous and helpful. The sales rep was knowledgeable and didn't pressure me at all. The crew who did the job were total gentlemen. No cursing or rude behavior like other contractors I've used. All of these services were provided in a very timely fashion, which was a huge relief. I found out my unit went out this morning and they replaced the old one with this new one promptly today. There were no added/hidden fees after the work was completed, either.
Description of Work: Replaced old furnace with a new unit and drilled a hole through outside wall for new venting.
