Choosing Commonwealth Cooling and Heating was a great decision, the installation went flawless and Hoy (sp), Jonathan and Brian worked as if it was their own house. The equipment that Brian chose to fix our heating and cooling problems far exceeded my expectations. It took less than 1 day to realize that the equipment purchased was the right decision. We awoke the morning following the installation to a very comfortable home. I guess that one can say that we are now in a state of Comfort. THANK YOU Commonwealth Cooling and Heating!!!!

Long standing problem I tried (and failed) to trouble-shoot. The repair was completed in under an hour. The system operates like new again. The cost of the repair was less than I expected. The technician arrived on time. Neat. Clean. Thoroughly professional and explained the solution to the problem in detail once the job was finished. I don’t recall being this satisfied with HVAC assistance in the past. If future needs arise, I will definitely call this company first.

Service was excellent, he found the problem, had it fixed in no time, installed a replacement and had us back up and running. There was a service fee for a Saturday but they were timely on an off hour day, which is rarely the case.

We used Commonwealth twice for furnace installation and could not be happier. Before the house furnace was replaced we did have the old one repaired since the technician said it could be fixed and still had some life left. I really appreciated the fact that he was not just trying to upsell a new furnace. After a few more years it was finally time to replace it. They had to put in new duct work along with the new furnace. We were very impressed by the professionalism of the technician. He listened to our issues about heating/cooling the whole house in winter vs summer so installed baffles that allow us to control greater flow upstairs vs downstairs depending upon the time of year. It has worked wonderfully and we are very happy with the work.
Description of Work: They installed a furnace in our new garage apartment as well as our house when our old one broke down.

Commonwealth Cooling & Heating service has always been excellent. The technicians are professional and polite. Proposed repairs are explained, estimates are accurate and repair costs are fair and reasonable. I Highly Recommend Commonwealth Cooling & Heating.
Description of Work: I'm a Professional Realtor and I've worked with Commonwealth Cooling & Heating for approximately 7 years. Initially, I hired Commonwealth to repair the A/C in one of my rental properties after meeting owners Brian and Mandy at a charity fundraiser. They were quick to respond, fairly priced and the technician was professional, polite and efficient. Later that year I had them install a furnace humidifier in my primary residence. Since then, Commonwealth has performed yearly routine maintenance on each property, replaced HVAC parts as needed on the older equipment, and cleaned air ducts & dryer vents. Over the years I've recommended Commonwealth Cooling & Heating to Many, Many clients to repair various HVAC issues. My clients have always been pleased with their service, prices and results.

When we got the humidifier, they didn't tell us that we needed to replace a part of it on a regular basis. I didn't feel like we got the a lot of the money but they were helpful. The people who would come out, I think it was usually the same man, was really nice. I know that there was one time where they had to do a repair and it seemed pretty pricey. We thought that having the service contract would enable to us to get a better deal, we had a small discount, but we didn't really feel like having the service contract did very much for us, so that's why we stopped. And when we recently had to have a new HVAC system installed, we did call them on a Saturday and they said they would get back to us and I don't think they ever called us back. We ended up having to go with someone who picked up right away.
Description of Work: We had a service contract with them for inspection of heating and cooling unit and installed a humidifier for us.

It was not really in the system, it was in the exhaust. There seemed like a little gassy smell in the exhaust flowing to the outside. So they came by and just checked on it for me. There is some rust in the system that is allowing it to move out into the exhaust. It is very, very minor but basically we've got to replace the whole system. We're not ready to do that yet. It's not a dangerous issue. They were very good as far as explaining that. It's not a danger, it's not going to explode. It's just an annoying thing. At some point we're going to have to replace the HVAC system. We've used them before. This was the first visit here to this house. We signed up a contract for this new house. We have a regular contract with them. They come out twice a year. I'm due to call them now for a seasonal check.

They actually didn't come out. It was actually the very first time we called them. We called them and got the answering service. Someone from their company called us back and actually said it was probably a very simple problem and that the igniter needed to be refreshed and sanded off, it picked up buildup on it and wasn't sparking properly. He talked my husband through on the phone on how to actually go in and pull it out, get a piece of sandpaper, rub it off and reinstall it and it kicked right on immediately. It was over the phone. There was no charge. It was the absolute first time we ever called them, so they didn't have any sort of relationship with us at all. It was extremely stellar. We've used them ever since.

I was not there but I provided access to the property by key box. The tech showed up, called me and said that the coil was leaking and that the compressor was leaking oil all over the place. Quoted $3500 to $7000 to replace the system, and even said that he found a snake in the outside unit. Tech could not figure out how to get the key back in the key box. I called my friend who is a licensed HVAC tech. He found a burned out fuse that cost 10 cents and discovered that there was a hole in the coolant line caused by a nail from the new roof. The whole repair should have costs a few hundred dollars. Also, my friend said that nobody had even taken the cover off the compressor and that the coil was fine. In fact still the system was even still under warranty. Just abut everything this company told me was wrong and borderline criminal.

First of all we apologize if the customer feels that our service was anything other then excellent. We do however stand by our technicians honesty and ability to make the best out of the service call when the homeowner is not home and unavailable by phone. Our company was contacted via Angie's List storefront on August 17th. At that time we schedule an appointment for August 19th between 9am and 12pm. We were to access the property via lockbox as the homeowner would not be there and call for approval before any repairs were made. We were charging $49 for the service call to go out to the home and diagnose the problem. We arrived ontime to the appointment and found that we could not access the lock box and the side door open. The technician noted on his service ticket, "Found unit has no R410/also found coil filter clogged. Unit needs to be serviced, leak test performed and possible other problems. Left message with both phone numbers but was unable to get any approval for repairs. When I arrived found side door open/unable to get back lock box to open. We feel that had we been able to add refrigerant to perform a leak search (both requiring an extra charge) that we would have been able to repair the system. We were unable to get approval from the homeowner.
