Then my very old system finally kicked the bucket we needed a new system. They offered to apply the Freon charge to a new system, but another vendor had better prices. That being they did fantastic job.

The weather had suddenly turned cold and Snell was contacted and they replied immediately. A service tech named Italo S. arrived and fixed the problem quickly. We had a good experience and have used Snell prior and will use again. The price was standard for such a request.

Snell personnel are always thorough, professional, skilled, courteous, &careful. Three years ago, they repaired a 2-year-old heat pump that someone else had incorrectly installed and on which a part had failed. Since then, my system has performed perfectly. Whenever I've needed Snell, they have responded promptly. When they perform my semi-annual inspection, the technician always explains each check he's performing. Again, they are always most thorough.
Description of Work: Snell performed my semi-annual HVAC system inspection. I am a subscriber to their service.

Used incorrect email to send an estimate that lead to day with a getting possible option to find the right solution to the issues. Still consider to hire other company to complete repair work due to unseasonable prices for provided estimate. Per other feedback review it sounds like it as a part of the company business model to offer a replacement of the system vs. finding the source of the problem - a quick win with the max profit. Not sure it helps to win customer's respect in long run. No harm but not a reasonable solution for customers issue - if you are out of a hot season than try to make the right choose.

Very good service as always. Snell always sends a short bio of the service technician as well as a photo. We have had Loyd Boyd several times - what a good guy! He takes his time explaining what he did and what we need to do to keep our system up and running. There is no up selling of services or products. The price for twice a year maintenance checks is the best we have found.

Overall went well, but their scheduling policy is not convenient for customers as they decide when they get to your home for the seasonal check ups, and these usually take place very early or late in the seasons.

David arrived within the time frame provided. I also received an e-mail from Snell with the name and photo of the service person being sent to my home. David was professional, diagnosed the problem, showed me the cause explaining what needed to be done, provided the cost of repair and time it would take to make repair.

Not well. After the "leak detection" I was told the system needed to be replaced, $5,000! Was pressured to commit to replacement but said I would think about it. Had another company come out, no leak was found. Called Snell back, they offered to send out their "top" guy. He came out, did not find the original leak but claimed to have found a different leak, this one in the air handler. Good news, didn't need to replace system. Bad news, cost to fix "new" leak, $2,300. Had another company out, again no leak was found. To Snell's (small) credit, the cost for the original leak check was refunded, but not the cost for the service call or the coolant.
Description of Work: I had a maintenance contract for my 2 yr old HVAC system w/Snell. My AC stopped working and I called them. Came out, in 1/2 hour told me the system was low on coolant ($400) and a search for the leak, which would be another $400, was necessary. Plus there was an additional charge for the service call.

They were quick. I mean, they were nice and friendly, but what I didn't like is the job site -- the way they were telling me i needed to buy a new air conditioning unit. That is the downside. I don't like it when they tell me I need to buy a new unit because of age or whatever. They might be being honest, but I don't like to be pushed without looking at options. I called another company in the area and (they) gave me some options. My air conditioning is working perfectly fine now. I spent, like, $500 as opposed to spending $12,000 for the whole unit. That would have been unnecessary because I don't know what they are talking about -- the electronics of it. I give them a high mark on responsiveness, but the options I got I was disappointed. I need to trust that i am getting the honest truth not just jumping and saying the unit is 10 years old and i need a new one. Their professionalism and punctuality was pretty good, but it is a bad cloud over my head that they pushed me to get a new unit. They made me fill like it is hopeless.
Description of Work: For heating and air conditioning I use Snell. They were last here for a checkup and estimate.

Positives: Technician was on time, professional, and friendly. Took his time to examine everything (a far cry better than the service I got through my home warranty company), wore shoe covers, and talked me through the whole process. Negatives: Because he thought there was a break in the HVAC ducting somewhere he couldn't see, he wouldn't give a quote or definitive next steps. After stating they'd evaluate back in the office and provide an estimate, I didn't hear back for two weeks until I called them, and was told the issue was too nebulous for them, and I needed to hire a company to video map my HVAC ducting before they'd give me a quote on a fix.
Description of Work: I bought an offer on Angie's list for an HVAC tune up. Because there was the potential for an issue with the HVAC I wanted them to look at, they upcharged an extra $20 for "diagnostic services"

Fixed some corrosion (only 6 year old Lennox). Asked for quote to get permanent fix under warranty - new inducer motor. Never got quote. Problem recurred at end of winter. Finally followed up and quote $743 with no willingness to check if warranty would cover. Will not use Snell again.

The Lennox iHarmony system is amazing. All four zones stay at their set temperature and I hardly notice it running. Snell did the design homework necessary to put together a nice system and executed the installation perfectly with a minimum of disruption.
Description of Work: Snell installed a new Lennox gas furnace, XC25 air conditioner, and the iHarmony four zone control system with the iComfort thermostat.

Both systems restored to good working order and have presented no problems since. Technician working in house for at least two hours.
Description of Work: Neither the main A/C and attic A/C were cooling efficiently. The technician found the the attic system was especially clogged: he took both machines apart and inspected and then cleaned one thoroughly. The attic system had an improper size filter which had to be replaced later with a custom- ordered one from Home Depot.
