I discovered my the heat part of my heat pump wouldn't work. The person who came to repair my old unit explained in a clear fashion what wasn't working and the choices I had. The repair guy was courteous and easy to understand. The sales person was a bit intense but I'm pleased with the unit.

Experience was excellent as always. Thorough maintenance on each heat pump and reported to us on the condition of each unit. Each is in excellent condition.
Description of Work: My spring maintenenace on my 2 heat pumps (both of which I purchased from Carolina HVAC. Checked all registers and returns and changed all the filters in the house. Asked if we had any questions and was very knowledgeable. Very thorough. The price shown is the annual cost for both heat pumps. I have had Carolina for many years now and highly recommend Scott Kelly and all of the staff at Carolina Heating & Air Conditioning.

The went above and beyond for their client . Thank you for such a great job.

Carolina Heating Service arrived to add refrigerant due to the air conditioner failing to cool the house. They performed an inspection and determined that the Fan Motor and Capacitor had shorted out and needed replaced. I spoke with Allen, and he said the charge would be $1061. He also mentioned that the price may go up after he gets the unit running, because the unit may need refrigerant. I was undecided about what to do, but decided to shop around. I looked online at Carolina Heating Service company reviews via a Google search, and found another person who had the exact same issue. That person was able to find another company who did the work for a whole lot less. Unfortunately, the prior customer didn't mention the name of the other company. That's when I decided to become a member of Angie's list. I found a different company who came out the same day we spoke, he was able to do the same work for a total of $487.00. THIS IS LESS THAN HALF of what Carolina Heating Service was charging. Yes, he used new parts. (This was the first question we asked after finding out he was charging so much less. THE DIFFERENCE WASN'T THE COST OF PARTS, BUT THE COST OF LABOR. Thank you Angie's List for saving me over $500. I will now be a lifelong member!!!
Description of Work: Our air conditioner was running nonstop, but it wasn't cooling. Carolina Heating Svc was called to come out and add refrigerant.

We have a "Goodman" heat-pump unit that is about 6 yrs old for the second floor of our home. For the second time, the fan motor & capacitor have failed on us. The person who installed it and has been out before to fix it has since retired. When it failed recently we looked up local companies here on Angie's list and based on reviews called Carolina Heating Service, Inc. The person I spoke with on the phone was very courteous and responsive to our situation. The tech who came out was prompt and respectful.The issue I have with them centers on cost. A quick search online shows that the capacitor can be purchased for around $30, and a fan motor for our unit between $80 and $140. Carolina Heating wanted $640 for parts. This is not counting the $95 to come out to the house. So that's $735 total to come out and fix the problem. Instead, I made a few more calls and found someone to take care of it for $250 total, parts and labor. Last time this happened (two years ago) it was about $200, so prices have jumped a bit). Yes, Carolina Heating does offer a discount of 50% on service charge and a discount on parts if you sign up for their "maintenance plan" but that still would have come out to approx $500 plus the maintenance plan charge (actually quote was $889 for the whole package of repair + plan). I'm not going to get on the topic of the value of these "maintenance plans" except to say that a cousin in the industry has advised me to "save your money" (but there are steps every home owner should be sure to do. Such as changing air filters, keeping debris out of the units, etc.).

Professional service. Put covers on his shoes before he came in the house and took them off and returned them each time he came back in the house. Was very knowledgable and helpful and gave me the contract for the maintenance agreement. He did not have my size a/c filters so he used mine, but he said he owed me 2 filters. I will call and get the two filters since I need to change the filter before they come out next. Overall excellent impression for first time service. Jo Schnittman
Description of Work: Took a maintenance agreement with them and they came out same day to Maintain the Heating unit. They also changed the filters on the 2 A/C units and updated all the batteries in the fire alarms at an additional charge but worth it. They will maintain the A/C next spring. I thought the maintenance cost quite high, but they have such a good reputation and I had a bad experience with another service company that I paid it.

The Carolina Heating technicians were totally professional in all areas of the installation. They were very considerate of our property and belongings. They arrived on time each day and worked hard all day long, taking only short breaks for lunch. We have been customers of Carolina Heating for approximately seven years. We have always received excellent and professional service and this experience was no exception.
Description of Work: Carolina Heating installed a new HVAC system in our house. The new system had to be placed in a different location than our old one. Carol Heating technicians integrated the new system into the structure of our house. They also added a new vent to the duct work and created a new cold air return vent. They installed the new system, removed the old equipment and cleaned up after their work was completed. Once the system was installed a technician performed an inspection of the installation and the new system to ascertain that everything was completed and working properly. The work was performed over a two day period, working as quickly as possible yet never compromising quality of work. After the installation the office called to make sure we were satisfied and happy with the results of the install.

They did an excellent job. We were actually looking to upgrade our heat pump and their sales man was really good. He actually talked us out of it, which we thought was very admirable. He let us know what we had was efficient and working well. I really liked the sales person we dealt with, if we decide to get a new unit, we’ll consider them highly.

We were new to the upstate SC area and had only been in our house about 3 weeks when we called about a new HVAC system. Carolina Services set up an appointment for a Trane Comfort Specialist to visit us the next day to determine our needs and answer any questions. We were pleased with the system he suggested and placed the order the same day. We financed the system using a Wells Fargo low interest Visa home improvement loan through Carolina Svc One week later , the company called on Wednesday to set up an appointment for installation. They were able to install the next day. The technicians were very professional and did a stand up job on the installation. No shortcuts. The work took 2 days with all debris being hauled away the first day. They followed up with another Senior Tech who came about 1 week later to fine tune adjustments on air flow and inspect the system. All personnel involved in the process were polite and helpful ... on the phone as well in person. It is refreshing to have a positive experience with a contractor. We chose this company because they would service the Seneca SC area and had positive reviews on Angies List. I have no comparison to judge the cost, however the company emphasizes that it is dedicated to customer service. Peace of mind is worth a great deal to us. We did find that the cost for the Santa Fe Stand Alone Dehumidifier was considerably much less if we purchased online from a third party. We spoke to the Carolina salesman about it and he did reminded us that if they installed it, they would back it personally.

It is an established company, and they have been in business for about 46 years, which adds to their credibility. They are always very nice and helpful. The price of $242 is for a complete checkup, which includes two appointments, once for the spring and once for the fall. Their price is average and competitive - I want to make sure that everything is done correctly, especially on this kind of service. They go through all of the different products and test out if anything needs to be replaced, like the filters for example, and make sure everything is working properly. The technicians that come out really seem to know their stuff. They are very punctual and courteous. They don?t track mud through the house - they wear little slippers that they put on. They are very conscientious about coming into my house. I would use them again in the future.
Description of Work: I use Carolina Heating Service every year to check out my system.

I had called 3 other HVAC contractors around Easley, SC, before calling CHS. No particular reason for that order; just how it worked. Every one of the other 3 promised me something, a call-back, a visit, some info, etc. Not one of them did what they told me they'd do! I won't tolerate that kind of business practice! CHS did exactly what they promised, when they promised, how they promised! All around, a class act!
Description of Work: We bought our home as a foreclosure, knowing it had been vandalized while vacant before we bought it. The original HVAC unit was stolen. CHS installed a completely new Trane XL20i HVAC system. The system includes the outdoor heat pump, the indoor air handler unit, a sophisticated air cleaner, completely new controls, and necessary modifications to the existing ductwork and dampers in the attic to create two separate cooling/heating zones in the home. CHS gave us detailed estimates for three alternatives for what we needed. They explained the terms of each one carefully and thoroughly before we selected the top of the line unit we wanted. The old interior unit was in the attic. They had to completely dismantle it to get it out, and they did so without any trouble at all! The ductwork and dampers had to be reworked. New controls had to be installed and wired from scratch. New refrigerant lines in and out of the attic had to be installed, including thru the siding to the exterior heat pump and power line. Again, not a hitch. Their scope even included spreading two bags of cypress mulch neatly around all four sides of the foundation they supplied for the heat pump outdoors! They explained how to use the new system properly, including showing this old 20th century guy how to use the 21st-century digital programmable thermostats. They needed to finish one outdoor task a couple days later, and they did what they were supposed to, how they were supposed to do it, when they said they'd do it!

Excellent. I had a couple of instances to call for adjustments and they were here within 24 hours, called ahead of the scheduled arrival time to confirm and then called within 30 minutes of their arrival at my home. They are prompt, courteous, professional and extremely patient with all my questions. They are courteous of my home and thorough in their clean up after service. I would recommend this company to anyone in the market for new HVAC or to service an existing system. Scott should be proud of his team.

It went very well. I interviewed 4 firms to do the work. They weren't the cheapest, but you really get what you pay for. HVAC is not something you want the lowest bidder to do for you. Carolina Heating took the most time during the bidding process to find out my concerns (hot/cold rooms, drafts, dust,etc) measured my home, windows, insulation, attic and crawl space to make sure the unit they install would be perfect for my needs. They completed the job in in under 2 full days. They walked me through the entire system and showed me how everything worked, how to program the thermostat, change the furnace filter and they come back to my house if I have any questions. All of the entire staff, including the lowest guy on the install crew, were very courteous and professional. The system they installed is very sophisticated and does a fantastic job maintaining my family's climate comfort inside. The system is saving me about 40-50% on my power bill compared to this time last year.
Description of Work: Replaced our old heat pump package unit with a new high efficiency dual fuel heat pump and furnace split system. They checked the existing duct work, measured the home and did the calculations to size the new unit, performed the new install and replaced the return duct work. They did not replace the supply duct work because they said it was not needed. They went over everything they did and addressed/fixed any punch lits items I had with the new system.

We received three estimates for three different models, and it was all ridiculous. They said we needed new vents, ducts, parts outside installed and parts in the attic. It was crazy and unnecessary for a home this size to need so much. We have perfectly good vents and ducts. They were nice, but we felt they were trying to get all they could out of us. We decided not to go with them, and we are looking for more estimates.
