It was Sunday morning and bitter cold outside, in the teens and very windy and electric heaters going inside. I know it would cost twice as much to get service on Sunday but I had no choice. Called several companies and only got an answering machine. Called this company and got a person first try... Tech was here in a little over an hr... discovered burned wires shorted out something. Replaced ends and some new wires and got it working again... also discovered a wire not connected that activated the other half of the heat strips. He said it looked as if it had never been connected. I believe him because now it works better than ever! They could have sold me another heat pump that day but they were extremely honest and professional. The service call and the repair together was $160.00 for about 2 1/2 hrs work in the freezing cold on Sunday. Excellent work, honest, professional, and didn't try to upsell me anything... nowadays that's simply Amazing! I am very impressed and happy with their service.
Description of Work: Heat pump quit working sometime Saturday night . Needed troubleshooting and repair.

Very disappointed. I hired them for the $89.95 ac tune up for my hvac unit. Turns out the unit needed a capacitor. The tech. said it was $174 installed. I said it was okay to install it, but what about the $89.95 I already paid. He said that money didn't cover any of it. I feel that this was a rip off. Since it didn't need a tune up, why was I paying for a tune up and a repair???? Total cost for a $150 repair job was $263.95 I am not happy.

Response from Carolina Comfort Systems
Sent technician to do 1 time system check purchased through Angie’s List, Technician made an error in not using correct check list for customer. Customer had stated that he has had high utility cost on this home recently. Technician went through system and checked each item on check list and found that the capacitor was weak causing compressor to draw higher amperage than it should. Since system was running our technician gave customer price and option to either replace or not replace capacitor. Customer elected for our company to replace capacitor at the agreed upon price of $174.00. This is our standard price for this component. Our 1 time system check is for a checkup only, no repairs or cleaning. However, since my Technician did not complete all the checks that were supposed to be done Carolina Comfort Systems Inc, is willing to refund 50% of the system check price. 89.95/2=45.00 Info below was provided to customer at time of visit. One time check….Air filter: fair,. Thermostat operation: was operating properly, high voltage: (239), low voltage: (26), contractors and relay operation: checked fine, electrical connections: were tight, . blower motor amp draw 1.93) FLA 3.1, blower assembly: temperature drop: (17) degrees,. Outdoor fan motor(1.3) FLA 1.9 compressor: ( 13.97) RLA 15.6,…..over all the system ran fine Customers complaint was that his utility bill was doubled recently. I checked over the system first the electric heat, then I checked high voltage connections which were tight. I checked the compressors amp draw which is rated at 15.6 and was pulling almost 14 amps, I checked the capacitor 50/5 if checked at 43/4.8 and was really hot. I spoke with the customer on my finding and he decided to replace the capacitor, after replacing the amp draw was at 11. I also made sure the condenser coils were clean. I spoke with the customer and let him know that the compressor may be failing and replacing the capacitor may just be a temporary fix.

They did okay. They cleaned everything and serviced it. But it was cooling better before they came. I got him to do some extra work I wasn't there when he came, my wife was. She said he was very professional and everything when he came. He was there on time. It took him a week to get there.
Description of Work: I purchased a big deal from them. It was $89.95 for a tune-up. I got him to install an emergency switch.

I called Carolina Comfort out to inspect my system as a different vendor suspiciously found a ton of things wrong with it (Carolina Comfort is the vendor that initially installed the system 11-years ago). The technician, Brad, arrived on time, was very friendly and understanding of my trepidation. He inspected the system and was honest about what really needed fix and what didn't. I found him to be entirely trustworthy and he went a long way to set my mind at ease. I was very very impressed with the knowledge, level of service and professionalism exhibited and will most certainly call Carolina Comfort Systems when I need anything done to my HVAC unit!

Fantastic. The standards of all workers were very high. Phone calls in advance of service or appt as promised. On time. The owner even stopped by the site to review the work in progress. The first worker on site in the morning laid heavy drop cloths from my front door, to my stairs, up the stairs and to the ladder that goes into my attic. I tried to convince the worker that this was not necessary and he replied, "if the owner stops by and doesn't see us protecting your home, he won't be happy with me at all." That standard was maintained. I had wondered why the employee that came by to give me the initial quote 2 weeks earlier had put on little booties before entering the house but I didn't ask him about it. Now I know their standards. It took all day as it was a big job. I watched what they were doing and they were always happy to explain the current step. I could see that the install many years ago was poor on a comparative basis. The attic unit was not properly supported so the old unit had sagged in its warped PLASTIC tray. They built a new support on our front lawn from 3/4 plywood and 2x6 lumber, then installed it in the attic. I think I could have parked my car on that platform. Then they installed a metal tray on top of that. They retaped every duct junction in the attic with new tape. Removed the old pealing normal gray duct tape and used the expensive wide silver tape that never lets go. THEN they painted over every taped seem on every duct with a white mastic just to be sure it was sealed. They did not install the ducts but they felt they had to have them correct for their new unit to work right. They put foam blocks under all 4 corners of the unit in the metal. tray When I asked about it, they said the blocks would absorb any vibration so that it would be quiet upstairs in the bedrooms. Did the old install have this? Not at all. They installed a water sensor in the tray to shut off the unit in case water built up beyond a certain point. as that is now code. But they also installed another sensor in the drain lines in case they ever got stopped up. I found out that was not code at all. Just doing it the proper way. Again. I'd highly recommend this company! One cautionary note. This company only has a Conway address and phone. There is a company in my town with the almost identical name but it is NOT the same company. Only use the Conway based company.

I said I wanted to know everything about my upstairs system's poor performance. No company ever even said there was a problem, but I couldn't get others to really look at it. This company provided a very detailed written (typed) report before they left including all pressures they measured and what they meant in layman's terms. They commented on the existing ducts, improper routing that restricts flow, no support under the coils and therefore a warping water pan, and the diameter and R value of the return air duct. Their communication was fantastic before the call, about what they would do, and even calls from the service people as to when they left the shop and their ETA. The inspector spent almost 2 hours and showed me everything he found. Finally I knew what I had and what I needed. They did not push to install a new unit, didn't even suggest it. It was as far from a "sales" call as you could get. I had to ask about getting a quote. This was a real diagnostic and worth every penny.

Excellent service. First time using this company. Would definitely recommend them. Technician was very knowledgeable. Explained everything he was going to do prior to doing it. Checked all the duct work and the unit in the attic. Added refrigerant. Even told us what the refrigerant would cost and roughly how much we might need. He was right on with the estimate of how much. Said the brass fittings on the unit were a little loose and tightened them. Answered our questions. Did not try to sell us anything. We inquired about a service contract. Gave us all the details of the different plans plus by signing up for a plan it lowered the price on the original service we called about. Did not try and sell us anything we didn't need. Last provider we had used tried to sell us an entire new unit. That was over 2 years ago. Obviously we didn't need one. After this service was completed, our unit has been operating perfectly. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for HVAC service.
Description of Work: Serviced my HVAC system. Cold air coming out of some ducts while heat was on. Inspected all ductwork, checked the refrigerant in the system. Added about 1 lb of refrigerant. Determined some of the fittings on the unit were loose. Tightened fittings.

They left my property looking better than what it looked like when they showed up. They called the next day to make sure everything was going well. I was so pleased that I called them back to have a Mitsubishi wall unit put in. I love these guys!

We were having a hard time dealing with our home warranty company. The company they chose left us in the heat. We called Carolina Comfort Systems and they helped us immediately. They had a unit in stock that would fit in the space in the attic and the outside unit came as well. They were neat, quiet, polite, friendly, and efficient. They got the job done in the time they said they would. They have been great to work with and have done an excellent job. When they saw that something with the new unit wasn't working as efficiently as it should, they came back and fixed it. Honesty and integrity are attributes that not many business strive for anymore, but Carolina Comfort Systems most certainly does.

Very disappointed with this company. Glad we went with another company.
Description of Work: We called around to get estimates to replace two heat pumps for our home. This is one of the companies out of 5 companies we called . Carolina Comfort Systems did call back in response to our request to have someone come to the house and discuss what was needed. Date & time was arranged , howvever, no sales person ever came out to the house at their appointed time. They never called to cancel the appointment, they just never showed! AT that point, we decided against even calling them back to see if they wanted to reschedule another visit with us.

Response from Carolina Comfort Systems
I am sorry this customer has had such an unpleasant experience and treat any experience with our company with the utmost respect. However our records do not show any contact by this customer with our company. I have checked our phone records back thru September 2012, our computer records for customer name, and checked scheduling calendar for any appointments with customer name listed. If further info can be furnished, IE salesman's name and contact info or any other info that may help us determine what happened it would be greatly appreciated. While we are all human and mistakes can happen, this is highly unusual for our company. I will need additional info to verify that this was an appointment that was actually scheduled with our company. I would like to find out what happened in this situation so I can verify whether this is an internal failure or if there is confusion with our company and some other business. Member input will be greatly appreciated so we can minimize the potential for this to happen in the future. Again if this error was by our company please accept my sincere apology. Thomas A.

We experienced the failure of a cooling system in our wine cellar. Diagnostic testing indicated replacement of the cooling fan motor and control board were necessary. Upon contacting Carolina Comfort Systems, a very personable customer service representative noted my request for a quote to cover the provision and installation of the replacement parts we needed, as well as a quote for semi-annual maintenance service on our full house cooling/heating system. Within a few days I received a detailed quote covering the repairs needed and the semi-annual maintenance service Agreement I requested. After comparing quotes from other contractors, I awarded the job to Carolina Comfort Systems based on Angies' List references, professionalism, capability, price and parts/labor guarantee period. The job was done perfectly by a very knowledgeable, capable and polite Carolina Comfort Systems serviceman, on the date and time promised. My wife and I are very pleased with the quality of work performed, and highly recommend the services of this most trustworthy, reliable and competent air conditioning/heating equipment and service company!

I have known them for a while. I have used them before. I know their quality. I know the quality of the people. I know their number by heart. I know the owner. He is straight up and down person. His reputation is very important to him. It is a family business. I have put a new system in. I didn’t talk to the owner, but I talked to the son of his and somehow we had the communication crossed up. I said that's not what I want. I called and left a message to Andy. I called him and said maybe it's my fault and we have a miscommunication here. He said he will be there in the morning. I didn't have a problem saying I didn't communicate clearly, because I may have not said what I wanted.
