. They were good in general, there was a few problems. The cost of the services was 4000 $. They had some problems with some cleanup they damage a bit of the paint in the attic, whit the thermostat that they gave me. Other than that it was all right. There was a lot of things for that kind of money.

We purchased a new home at the end of June 2012. Almost immediately, we noticed the AC didn't seem to be functioning correctly and after a week or so, realized that the downstairs ventilation wasn't working properly. The upstairs was frigid (over 5 degrees below the thermostat setting) but the downstairs remained warm. Our builder contacted Fogel's who then called and arranged a service call for more than a week later. Although I felt the issue needed to be corrected quickly (our infant son?s bedroom is on the second floor), we weren't considered a priority since we had cooling. The technicians arrived on schedule and determined we had a defective part (damper). The part wasn't on hand or in stock and was ordered and received a few days later. The technicians returned and replaced the part promptly. After explaining the service provided, they asked if I had questions. I mentioned that the air flow seemed to remain low downstairs but was reassured that it was running normally. However, by the next day, I was able to confirm that the issue with too much cooling upstairs and not enough downstairs remained. I called the next day (a Friday afternoon) to explain that the problem remained and was immediately cut-off by the lady taking the call to tell me it was too late to do anything that day. I explained that I wasn't in a panic, I simply wanted to inform them that the previous repair had not solved the problem. She then scheduled a service call for the following Tuesday. On the last service visit, the technicians again arrived on time. After working on the system, they told me a few adjustments were made and that it should be functioning properly. As of the end of the 2012 cooling season, I haven't had any further issues with the A/C. While the technicians are competent, they don't impress me as listeners. Specifically, rather than listening to the symptoms I had witnessed, they seemed to have pre-determined the problem before fully assessing it. I believe that attitude is what led to the need for a third visit.
Description of Work: The service provided was repair of an AC system that was not providing air to the bottom floor of our home.

Have used them for annual maintenance on air conditioning system for several years. Was generally happy with their service. During this years spring maintenance the repairman said I had "leaks in my coils" and both (dual system) air conditiong systems had to be replaced. Cost about $9000. He promptly turned off both systems claiming some sort of EPA mandate. This certainly turned up the pressure on me to get something done. I brought in other companies for estimates and was told that there was nothing wrong with my system. A month has passed and things are running fine. I now have a maintenance agreement with another company. I will not be using Fogel anymore.

I am extremely sorry that you were displeased with our service. We did what we were there to do, that was a preventative maint. we noticed coils were leaking and were in bad shape. it will only be a matter of time before the system gives you trouble. We dont just tell our customers what they want to hear but the truth. We would like to earn back your business. A system should never use freeon and if you have had any added than you have a leak. The epa tells us that we are not suppose to knowingly put freeon in a system that is leaking. You have basically just put a band aid on your system. Good luck.

Same as above. Very satisfied from beginning to end.
Description of Work: We originally called for a repair as our air conditioning was working properly. We could have put in a new part for about $500, but after talking with the repairman, and coming to the conclusion that we had just purchased our home 6 months earlier and that it was a rental, we were unsure if their was any preventive maintenance. Therefore, rather than replacing it a piece at a time, we chose to replace the entire unit with a split system Carrier Electric Heat Pump, a bigger and superior system. It was replaced the next day and everything was handled very professionally, right down to the financing. Our SCE&G bill has gone down significantly and that pleases us greatly also. I would highly recommend this business.

The installation was quick, professional, and all my concerns and questions were addressed. I waited a year to write this review so I could let you know how the systems have performed. The Carrier 2-ton system has not worked properly twice since we had it installed. That meant, we were without AC downstairs twice and one of the times was just recently. The AC unit froze up both times and the last fix included replacement of a bad blower motor. Since the part they needed was not in stock, I had to wait a couple of days before it was fixed. Needless to say in this heat and my system being less than a year old and it being the second time, I was not a happy camper. Once the part came in, Fogle fixed the problem promptly in a professional manner. There was no charge since it was still under warranty. I gave this A rating because I do not fault Fogle for the Carrier's problems. I would give the 2.0 ton Carrier unit a D rating as far as quality and if I ever have to replace another unit, I will not buy the 2.0 ton Carrier unit. The Carrier 2.5 system has performed well since the installation in July 2009. My electric bill has still been very high but rates have changed and it's been hot and since one of the units has been wacky, I will reserve judgement on whether I really got the best quality. My June electric bill was $540.00. Hate to see what July and August will be. I recommend you look up the Heating & Air conditioning Installation Bid Comparison Checklist at energystar.gov website. It has the questions you need to ask concerning the equipment, duct work, and maintenance. It also has information on what qualifies for the rebates on not only AC equipment but appliances and other home improvement like roofing.
Description of Work: In July 2009 I contacted Fogel for a quote to replace both A/C units. I requested not lowest price but best value to ensure my home would be cooled efficiently so that I would not be paying $500.00 electric bills. I accepted their recommendation and price and had two new units installed, a Carrier split system 2.5 ton 14 seer and Carrier 2 ton 14 seer package system. The cost was $9,900.00. Each came with a warranty - 1yr labor, 10yr parts, 10 yr compressor.

Description of Work: During a bad electrical storm lightning struck the house and knocked out the central air conditioner. I called the next day which was a Sunday, and they told me someone would be out at 6:30. At 6:15 he called and told me he was running late and would be here by 7:30 which he was. The lightning knocked out the thermostat, the control board, and a capacitor. he had everything but the control board on his truck. It had to be ordered. .
