Didn't know what was wrong until the repairman came out. Everything was done quickly and professionally. This is a great company, they made some concessions for us. The people here are very professional yet empathetic. We had previously used 2 other air conditioning companies and were very disappointed. We now will only use Precision.

They spent time understanding the issue and walked through where the problem was. Offered a couple solutions, corrected and adjusted some things and the result is we are getting much better air flow and the system isn't constantly running. They could have upsold me, but they were honest and offered alternatives. I was very pleased and will use them again.
Description of Work: Trouble shoot why air flow was not optimal and system running more than it should. Also experiencing lot of moisture on condenser.

We contacted them to get an estimate on the above work. We had a major dust problem especially in the back part of the house and the existing ac unit was not cooling the house in the heat of the summer. David Nixon came out to the house, took a lot of measurements and determined that our ac was between 1 ton and 1.5 tons too small for the house. He also believed that the dust problem was due to the old ducts not being sealed. We scheduled the work and started obsessing over the temperature outside. We thought we were going to be without ac for the 4 days this was going on but it turned out that they did it in phases so the air was off all day while they were here working but when they left, they would have it back up and running so that was a major relief. So far so good on the dust problem. Everything appears to be working fine. Not that I'm looking forward to the hottest part of the summer, but I have a pretty good feeling that the house is going to be much cooler this year. The guys who came out to do the work were very friendly and professional. They kept us informed of their progress even emailing to ask if it was ok for them to leave a trailer in the driveway. It was about the smoothest home improvement project we've had done.

Precision Air & Heat provided a very thorough and honest evaluation of our HVAC system when we engaged them during the inspection stage of our home purchase. They provided details about the existing systems in terms that we could understand. They educated us on the life expectancy of the systems as well as recommended changes to improve the systems. After our home purchase, we asked and they provided a more thorough analysis of our needs and recommended systems. They responded directly and honestly as we weighed our options on how and when we should make a complete HVAC change. We engaged Precision to install two complete new systems that included duct cleaning and zoning configurations. The installation was done quickly, professionally and completely in a way that we felt that they had our best interest in mind. This all comes from homeowners who have owned one existing home and have built two new homes over the past 30 years. We know what a good vendor looks like. Give Precision a chance. Ask a lot of questions. Get things in writing. Most likely, you won't be disappointed and will be happy with your decision.
Description of Work: Installed two new heating and air conditioning systems in 4,800 sf home. Systems included zoning configuration.

Wally was very professional and friendly throughout the whole visit. I will definitely use you guys again.
Description of Work: System wasn't blowing cool air. Wally diagnosed it right away as low on refrigerant. He talked with me about the repair options, balancing cost of repair against how much longer the unit would likely last. I decided to take the quick fix of a freon recharge.

I solicited proposals from 3 firms. Precision was very competetive with other firms with good reputations. Even though I did not start work until a cooler part of the year, 4 months later, he honored his prior proposal. Showed up on time. Even though work took 1/2 day longer than estimated, no increase in cost. Good crew. Very professional and thorough. No short cuts.

I would highly recommed Precision Air and Heat for anyone that is looking for an affordable and reliable HVAC company. They delivered exactly what they promised and I would use them again in the future.
Description of Work: David Nixon with Precision Air and Heat installed a new furnace and AC unit at our home in early December. The price and the service were both excellent and your new unit is already saving us money on our utility bills and keeping our house nice and warm.

I thought I was getting quality service. Now not so sure.
Description of Work: I had a new heat pump installed. Great service in the beginning. The air filter he used was to small. He said he would drop some off. He did not, I went and bought the size he told me. They did not fit. I went and bought a filter you can cut to size. When I went to install the filter the door (they removed this door to install) fell off. He was suppose to come out and fix it. With the door open you could see where black electrical tape was used to keep 2 pipes apart. The tape is coming unraveled and is not working. Black electrical tape was probably a poor choice of product to use.

I have had a/c issues all summer with a/c unit not running efficiently. Had 3 different companies come to check it out over the summer-each time old unit low on freon but nothing resolved. Finally the last tech advised me that I had 3 good sized coil leaks and compressor was not performing 100%. I started to research for a different HVAC company and my first call to Precision Air & Heat was around 530pm on a weekday night to have someone look at the unit and provide estimate on new a/c. Laura called me back right away and advised me that a tech was nearby-1 hour later David Nixon was at my house. He was very professional and neat and had a calm demeanor. He looked over the equipment and told me he would have an estimate for me that night. I was happily surprised when I did get the estimate at around 10pm. I was very happy with the fair price for the Trane unit and new 2 zone unit (I received other quotes which were higher for a lesser quality brand). Shortly after that visit my a/c stopped and David came by and told me that the compressor had seized up and could not be repaired (by the way, he never charged me for that service visit). Three days later, David and crew were here installing the new equipment. It was an all day job due to getting the 2 zone damper system installed. The crew were all very personable and professional as well. I am thrilled to have the a/c working again but even more thrilled with the 2 zone damper system. Thanks David for doing the install so quickly and professionally. I have already recommended you to others.
Description of Work: House air conditioning unit replaced including coils (not furnace). Also installed 2-zone motorized damper system (2 story 1630 sq foot home)

Precision Air & Heat were very through in their procedure. They wanted to take measurements and confirm insulation values in order to determine what would be needed to heat and cool the home. They?re very low key and wanted to discuss all options without pressure. I look forward to seeing the estimate. Having accepted their estimate they moved forward at a pace that was comfortable for myself, I had family visiting and they accommodated my needs very well. They arrived on time and were very professional in the way they conducted the install, being sure to pay attention to the small details that often get overlooked. They really tried hard to not impact our living space constantly cleaning up after themselves, and making sure things were put right before leaving each night. Final inspection was signed off and we could not be happier. David is a very calm and collected professional who won?t do you wrong, he came across as a little quiet in his mannerism but he took the time to explain everything and wasn?t pushy...if only all contractors could conduct business this way. Thanks again.

I sent Precision Air & Heat an email late on a Sunday evening letting them know that we needed service on our AC system. I had worked with them previously on a commercial project and now needed their services on our home. Our AC stopped working right in the midst of record breaking heat days in Charlotte. I received a great email response back early Monday morning and was told that someone would be out to take a look at our system later that morning. They came out within the communicated timeframe. The first day they came out they put some refrigerant (Freon) in the system because it was very low and also added some leak detection die because of the concern for a potential leak. The following day the problem seemed to persist so the reality of a leak seemed very evident. They checked the air exchange unit in the attic and found a leak on the evaporator coil and later found a leak on the manifold of the condensing coil on the unit outside. Their skilled technician, Wally, successfully repaired both leaks. His willingness to try the repair, and his skilled ability to get it done, ultimately saved us thousands of dollars. It was a real blessing. After successfully repairing both leaks they finished recharging the system. They are a stand up company, and they did the right thing by not charging us for the refrigerant the second time around. We had to pay for it on the first day, but after it all leaked out overnight; I was impressed that they made the honorable choice to recharge it at no cost after repairing the leaks. Later that evening I still had some concern regarding the house and that it was not cooling down as expected. I called the technician and he kindly made the drive all the way back to Fort Mill even though he was already at home, quite a distance from our house. He came back out, rechecked the levels, and thankfully the leak fixes held. He made a minor adjustment on the refrigerant pressure, which seemed to make a difference. He also took the time to check the attic again and look at the dampers on the bypass and the three zones. He explained how the bypass damper was not properly installed and we were likely losing a lot of cool air volume to the bypass, never reaching the inside of our home. He adjusted the bypass damper so that air would not escape like it was. He also looked at the zone dampers, because I knew one was questionable. He showed me how two of the zone dampers were not working properly and were contributing to the inconsistencies in cooling we had seen in the house since we purchased it almost a year ago. He adjusted them a little so they could do their best until replaced. The following morning, the third day, we woke up to a cool 72 degrees. It was relief at last. We were very pleased with the timeliness, professionalism, skill, and value provided by Precision Air & Heat. We would hire them again and recommend them to others.
Description of Work: Precision Air & Heat came out to service our AC system over the course of two days because it had stopped blowing cool air. Precision Air & Heat successfully repaired two leaks in our AC system and recharged it.

I called they came next day. He arrived, found breaker tripped, then measured start up AMPs. Noticed spike close to breakers rating. Found old capacitor was causing high spike. Replaced and AMPs reduced significantly. He mentioned that the fan is older and is making sounds that it might need to be replaced in the future. problem solved. He has a quiet demeanor and was nice. It was a good overall experience. He did mention that he only had one kind of Freon and hoped that my unit used the one he had. That didn't end up being and issue but was a momentary concern. I used the 50 dollar coupon for Angie's list customer's and this made the experience a good value.

As always, they do it "right" for a fair price. Other companies I have dealt with either do band-aid repairs (non-commissioned service techs that are lazy - i.e. Roland Black, Gastonia) OR another company will have commissioned service people that charge literally DOUBLE the money, but do it "right" (i.e. Brothers). To find a company with fair pricing that has service people that repair systems correctly (regardless of how much work it is to do it correctly) is a find. That's these guys. Keepers.

He has serviced our heating and air systems every Fall and Spring for years and years. We haven't had to have any systems replaced for 13 years since we have been using this company for maintenance on a regular basis. They do everything that you would expect a good company to do; we almost always have the same service technician each time.

Came home from vaction to an upstairs a/c unit that was blowing hot air. Upstairs was 95+ degrees. Called another a/c company (unnamed here) that we had used before. Tech came out and pumped 6 pounds of freon into my system charged me big bucks and left. The a/c worked for exactly 1 week until all the freon was gone again and upstairs was 95+ degrees again. Called Standard Mechanical in the morning and spoke with Robin, and was told their schedule was full for the day but she would do what she could. Got a call back about 30 minutes later and was told they could have a tech over within the hour. Tech arrrived and checked out system using a freon detector and determined that the air handler condensor was bad/leaking. Tech recommended that we NOT add any freon at this time as it would be a waste of money. Tech also mentioned that our system was not matched components and that they could replace the air handler/condensor only, but the system was already 10 years old and most likely getting close to end of life. We asked him to have someone quote us a replacement system, and received a call from David within an hour. David came out and quoted us three different systems ranging from entry-level to to high-end. After receiving quotes from 2 other companies, we decided to go with Standard due to their professionalism, quick followup and overall knowledge of the products they offered. At no time did Davisd try to push any of the three systems on us, he just gave us the pros and cons of all 3. The crew arrived on time as scheduled, did everything they said they would and left our house in as good as or better condition than when they arrived. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

I called in the morning and was told by the person who answered that she would see if she could get someone out that day and call me back. I had reached out to Standard Mechanical first because they have good ratings on Angie's list and I was looking for a company that I could build a long-term working relationship with. A few hours went by with no call, so I called again, since it was almost noon, and I was risking my opportunity to get someone else if Standard Mechanical could not respond. I was told that someone would be coming, she could not give a time, but that I was the 3rd person on the tech's list. I then had to repeat my town and zip code 6 times (I know this seems petty, but I am in the exact same town and zip as their listed address). She then called back to re-verify my zip code. After several more hours I called again to see when they might be coming, and was told I am "next". The tech finally arrived at the end of the day and fixed the HVAC unit. When I received the bill, it included a $96 "Trip Charge". This charge was not mentioned on any of the calls with the office or by the tech, and is not listed on the Angie's description. I found this large non-disclosed charge outrageous, especially from a company 3.71 miles from my house. Most companie's are upfront with any trip charges, and I skipped over them because of that charge. I find the fact that Standard Mechanical did not disclose this charge at all, highly deceptive and unethical.

Description of Work: Replaced Blower motor and cleaned squirrel cage (fan/blower) on 10yr old Trane system. Brother's Air was out here first, but their tech's are commissioned and the price was double for the exact same repair. I sent the Brother's tech on his way (after paying for service call) and Standard Mech. came out on a Saturday to look at my system so they could to quote on the repair, at NO charge for the quote - I did not want to be burned again, ala Brother's.

From the first visit to the second they were great. They did run late on the second visit but made sure to contact me to confirm my schedule was okay and that they could still come out. Once here, they immediately jumped in to the project. They highlighted things I needed to keep an eye on. Showed me where repairs were needed and what changes I may need to address. The repairs suggested I must admit were obvious and I felt comfortable taking their advice. Everything is running wonderfully now.
Description of Work: I was just beginning to look for a heating and cooling maintenance person to visit and get my house prepared for the rest of the year when I noticed a leak in my office. The ac had backed up and could not drain properly. I quickly signed on to Angie's list and began my search more seriously. When comparing them all Standard Mechanical had some of the best reviews and was closest to me. I contacted them and they made it out to my house that evening. the solution was simple and they kindly charged for only the drive out. He reviewed the entire situation and showed me what needed to be down, both by me and them. Upon completing the service he introduced me to some of their services packages. They were reasonably priced and I purchased one. We then scheduled them to return for my bi annual maintenance. They offered to return within three days to work on the unit but my schedule did not fit that idea. We scheduled for the following week.
