Description of Work: We've used Shanahan's for several jobs. They do great work, are highly professional and, above all honest! (How many times can you say that about a company?!) They installed a new furnace in our home and a rental--and both times said the current cooling systems did not need replacement. They installed an electric fan in a bathroom and hooked up an attic fan. Kirk, also installed our new gas stove. He had to adjust the fitting so that the stove would sit against the stove. Everything was done quickly and properly the first time. Great staff, wonderful owner.

Description of Work: Replaced furnace in tight space in attic. It went very well for a difficult job. I also have used them for issues with other furnaces more recently and they found the problem and recommended an inexpensive fix. I trust them.

Description of Work: Shanahan's replaced my HVAC unit when the original unit (that lasted 20+ years) died. I choose Shanahan's because they had the best overall rating in Angie's List and other sources. However, I had a very different experience than those leaving reviews. Once the sale was made and the unit installed they were reluctant to provide service for the unit. It was extremely difficult to get them back to the house to consult on some of the initial issues I was having. They would say that it was a great unit and there should be no need for them to look at it for 12 - 18 months. In addition, I had such difficulty scheduling Shanahan's to replace the unit's proprietary filter that I eventually had to use another HVAC company. In summary, they seemed to be very interested in sales but not in a long term service relationship. This was very disappointing as I had wanted to buy from a company who would also provide support for the product they installed.

Response from Shanahan's Heating & Cooling Inc
Shanahan’s Heating & Cooling enjoys an excellent reputation within the industry for sales as well as prompt and professional service. We regret that [member name removed] believes she did not receive the excellent post installation service for which we are known. Shanahan’s installed a new HVAC unit on May 4th of 2010 rather than May 12th of 2013. We advise all customers upon completion of an installation that no routine service is necessary for the first twelve months other than replacement of the April Air electronic air cleaner filter after one year of normal use. Our records indicate that we responded to her request for service on September 27th of 2010 and again on October 15th of 2010. Our service technician did not find any issues that needed to be addressed. However, as a courtesy, he replaced the filter in the electronic air cleaner. Subsequent to October 15th of 2010, we have no record of any service requested by [member name removed].

Description of Work: They arrived timely within a scheduled 2 hour window. Removed my existing outside air conditioning unit and indoor coil, and replaced both with Trane equipment. They also installed and setup a Nest thermostat that I provided, at no additional cost. I was particularly impressed with their professionalism, friendliness, neatness, and attention to detail. Whenever I replace my furnace I will definitely call Shanahan.

Description of Work: After serviceman came and provided maintenance on furnace, there was water damage to my basement carpet that resulted from clogged drain from the humidifier attached to my furnace (part of service contract). Shanninghans refused to take responsibility and charged me for a second visit. However, the most gregarious part of my dealings with Shanninghans was the office manager's attitude in dealing with me and the fact that she refused to let me speak to the manager or owner. I will never use a company..like Shanninghans...that treats it's customers with such disrespect and disregard for customer service.

Response from Shanahan's Heating & Cooling Inc
Shanahan's Heating & Cooling enjoys an excellent reputation for our prompt and professional HVAC repair services as well as routine maintenance services performed for our contract customers. We can certainly understand (removed member name) frustration regarding the flooding of her basement and we sincerely regret her belief it was due to our negligence. We have had the pleasure of serving (removed member name) as a contract customer since November 2010. On November 20, 2012 we performed a routine maintenance on her heating system and humidifer. The entire system was found to be in good working order. On November 23rd we dispatched our "on-call" technician in response to an emergency water leak. The technician found the FLOOR drain was clogged causing the water back up in her basement, not a clogged humidifier drain or malfunctioning humidifier. He explained to (removed member name) that floor drains are not part of the HVAC system, not covered by her contract and the problem would need to be addressed by a licensed plumber. She was billed for the service call and a nominal emergency fee for the Thanksgiving holiday weekend. When (removed member name) contacted our office to dispute the charges her message was conveyed to management. As a courtesy, the emergency fee for the holiday weekend service was waived. She was not satisfied with a discount but rather felt there should be no charge at all and wanted to speak with Mr. Shanahan. Our service manager returned the call, explained that Mr. Shanahan is in the field every day and unable to take calls. However, Mr. Shanahan had revisited the issues and again determined the charges to be extremely fair. Her payment was processed on December 12th, almost 3 weeks later, clearly indicating the situation had been given a great deal of consideration.

They exceeded my expectations.
Description of Work: My heat pump quit working. The first company I called stood me up. Contacted Shanahan's and they arrived when they said they would. Their serviceman was polite and got to work. He started on the outside unit and worked his way down to the air exchanger in the basement. He found that some wires had melted together and cleaned and repaired the mess. When power was restored he went back outside and tested the unit. Everything worked OK. Work was done in an hour and the bill was way less than what I expected. These guys are honest and get the job done. I would use them for any work they perform.
