The estimate for the work was quick and once the contract was agreed upon, the work was completed quickly. The crew was friendly, prompt, efficient and professional. The work spanned a couple of days and the workers were courteous and professional for the entire job. They cleaned up after themselves so well, one would not have known such a major undertaking had occurred. We are very pleased with the whole process. We would recommend.

Installed an American Standard system with dual zone. System works very well (at least on cooling - haven't needed heat). Much quieter than old (20 yr old) system. Much more uniform cooling. Only had system a couple of weeks so don't know effect on electricity usage.

The service call went very well. They got our A/C unit ready for the summer heat and also quickly identified a problem in the outside unit and fixed it. We have used them several times in the past and have been satisfied every time. The $287 cost also includes credit for a furnace tune-up in the Fall.
Description of Work: Had them come out to do an A/C tune-up to get our unit ready for the summer. While there, they discovered a problem in our outdoor unit. Turns out we needed a new capacitor. They identified the problem quickly and fixed it quickly. Our unit is now ready for the summer!

Mike came out and did a wonderful job! I can tell he has been doing this a long time. He is professional, and friendly. He did a very thorough job. He also answered questions. He reminds me of that teacher you'd love to have in school who is patient, kind but also knows his profession inside and out! I'm extremely pleased. (Oh, and he was nice to my little dog!)

We called the office the week before to arrange the inspection and the appointment was scheduled for November 1st. We were contacted the day prior to the scheduled date to confirm that we'd be available. Josh arrived promptly at 8:30 AM, as scheduled. He had performed our spring inspection and, once again, did a thorough and professional job. He explained what he was going to do, identified any areas that needed to be addressed, and offered suggestions to help keep the cost of operations down. When finished he completed a form summarizing what had been and reviewed it with us. City Heating & A/C is very accommodating, helpful, and great people to work with.
Description of Work: City Heat & Air Conditioning performed a semi-annual check of the heating and air conditioning system. This included, if needed, cleaning and adjusting burner assembly, cleaining the ignition assembly, monitor flue draft, clean & adjust blower components, measure volts/amps, lubricate all moving parts, adjust thermostat calibration, clean condensate drains, measure temperature difference. All connections were checked for tightness. We have this service performed every 6 months and it has helped keep the units running efficiently and enable us to catch potential problems before they become major ones. By the way, the price includes 2 such tune-ups annually.

The estimate alone was $80. They were prompt and got back to me right away and even out to the house quickly. They said the unit needed to be replaced and quoted a price. Fortunately for me I got a second estimate for the replacement of the unit, because it was half the price! I would not recommend this company! Shop around before settling on an estimate. By the way the company letter head is City Heat & Air, but they are also listed as City Heating & Air sometimes.

This was not an estimate. It was a service request by this member and the diagnostic charge. is $85.00. This customer has not paid this and gave us F's because we provided a price of factory replacement parts and she states the price was twice as high as the one she went with. We have no idea of what she was quoted by anyone else but would advise all to compare "apples to apples" as they say.

I wish there was a higher rating that "A" I didn't think anyone would show up until late Saturday but Steve called around 11:30 and was there around 12:00. He found the problem immediately was a part that had failed and replaced it. He had my system back up and running within about 20 minutes. I was SO happy with the service. Steve was very pleasant and helpful. I asked him about a maintenance contract for my system and he told me what was available so I signed up with them and he even gave me a 15% discount on the service I had originally called about. I was so happy with everything with this company that I would recommend it 100% to anyone.
Description of Work: I wish there was a higher rating than "A." My air conditioner stopped cooling the night of 8/31/12. In July I had purchased an Angie's List "deal of the day" for an A/'C maintenance and duct inspection from a different company. They said everything was great but when my A/C died I tried to call them only to find they don't have 24 hour service. I checked Angie's list for another company and called one that has 24 hour service. The answering service said someone would call me right back - no one ever did. I looked in the phone book and found City Heat and Air. I called about 9:30 Friday evening and she said someone would call me back and Steve called within 15 minutes. He asked if I needed it fixed this weekend and I said yes so he said he could come out on Saturday but that there were several people ahead of me so it would be afternoon. That was fine with me.

I first called the service and got the answering service. They stated if I didn't use the emergency service, I would have to sit at my home from 7 to 5 and wait for the rep. I have a job, so that was out. Thier ad reads differently. It states that you will know when your appointment is so you won't have to waste your day. The rep, Mark, called me back. I could tell he was already upset about doing my call. He got here about 6:30. I showed him the thermostat and went to show him what I had done by moving things on it. Before my hand touched it, he stated "LET ME DO IT, you already know it is not working". I backed up and said ok. I showed him the unit in the garage and he went outside, slamming the door. He came back in, slamming the door, and said the unit runs on a separate circuit and it is locked. I was nodding, not sure what he was talking about. He then in a very gruff manner said "DO YOU HAVE A KEY", I said oh yes, we haven't worked out it in 10 years, so I forgot it was locked. He came in again slammed the door. I was ready to ask him to leave at this point, but I adopted a 4 week old kitten and was worried about him. I could go to a friend's house to get cool. He left slammed the door and came back in with a clip board. He said you have air and was about to give me bill. I said I have a coupon. He said we don't take those on Sunday. I said it doesn't say that anywhere on the coupon. He said I wish you would have told me earlier. I said first, I didn't know you were done, second I have no idea what you even did and third I didn't know the rules. I emailed the company about the service I received. Heard nothing, I called the business on Friday and talked to the receptionist. She said she wasn't making excuses, but she was. He had been working since 7am that morning and was tire and irratiable. She said i should find some forgiveness. My take on it, is I understand working many hours. I do it every day in my job. His attitude would have been differently had I been a man. His attitude was unforgiving. People like that have no reason to be in the service industry. This is their busiest season, if the company is overworking their employees, they may need to hire more people. I will never hire them again and I have told many people about the treatment I received. eme
Description of Work: Air Conditioning was blowing only hot air. He checked the thermostat and unit in the garage. Then went outside for 15 minutes. Came back in and said I had air. He replaced a part. It was a Sunday evening.

I've used City Heating and Air in the past for service of an old HVAC unit. They did excellent work then, and offered the best deal from a few different quotes on replacing the old unit with a new good quality one. They showed up right on time, were completely professional, efficient, did great work, and I am SO happy with the new unit. 100% Satisfied.

The company is very responsive to any questions or concerns that I had. They kept me informed at every step, and when they had to order a new part for me, they called several times to inform me of the status. I also used them for routine maintenance, and am very satisfied with the work they have performed. Will use again. I had a 10 year parts and labor warranty on my hvac unit, so this repair visit didn't cost me anything.
Description of Work: The first visit they performed routine maintenance on my system. I had a rare condition (dirty sock syndrome) that caused the air blowing out of the heat pump to smell dirty at times. They explained my options, and I chose to go with installing a new coated condensor. Since my unit used the old refrigerant, they had to order a new condensor and come back another day to install it.

City Heat and Air showed up on time and on the date scheduled, completed the work satisfactorily and professionally. The price was as quoted and the crew did a great job of clean-up when the job was completed. My husband and I are very pleased with both the product, install and professional attention given us by Dwight as the sales representative. The system has made our home very comfortable and we have seen much lower costs in our energy bills over the past 2 months. We would highly recommend City Heat and Air to anyone needing this type of service in the Knoxville area and plan to use them for regular maintenance on our system in the future. The service was great and the crew and sales folks friendly and professional.
Description of Work: Our HVAC system was 28 years old and original to the house. We had been required to have service during the past 3 extremely hot summers and although the repairs were minimal, most were condenser switch replacements, we knew that replacement was imminent and the outages caused us to seek a hotel room due to health issues until the repairs could be completed. We got quotes from three companies and opted to go with City Heat and Air. They replaced both our heat and air systems and designed and built a custom filter box to house a particular type of filter that we preferred. They gave us options of different SEER rated systems including those that were compatible with our current outdoor condenser pad and interior available space. Their quote was very competitive and the representative Dwight paid particular attention to our needs and special requests.
