The employee was professional, punctual, efficient and friendly. The cost was for a service contract to annually check the heating and cooling. All the dealings I have had with the company prove them to be a very fair company. I just bought this 40 some-odd year old house last year. The heating unit is very old looking and I just assumed an HVAC company would try to sell me a new one but this company has now twice told me that, while looking old, the unit is in fine condition so I should be able to get at least a few more years out of it before replacement. Nice to hear.
Description of Work: Performed winter check on gas heating system. Checked the fan and motor, checked and cleaned the air filters, checked the heating assembly and the thermostat. All was fine. Dolphin had been by about a month earlier to unclog the gas line to the unit when I called with a complaint of no heat.

Had an A/C die at the end of summer last year and put off having it checked out until spring. On the recommendation of a friend, I called and reached Todd. We set up an appointment for him to come out to my house. He looked at the old one, pronounced it dead and suggested a replacement. I had two other estimates that both were almost 2 thousand dollars more and suggested the use of a zone system using baffles, which I specifically did not want. Todd was the only one of the three that listened and put in 2 smaller units instead of one large one. The lower than expected price allowed me to have him add a couple of minor additions like ultraviolet lights in the some of the ducts. Although he had a helper, I think he is a small two-person company. He answered both times I called and was on-site performing the actual work. I consider this a positive, as I prefer to support smaller companies when economically feasible. It's worth noting that he didn't charge me for diagnosing the old one even though I didn't select him to install the new one for a couple of weeks. I was up front in saying that I was getting other estimates and made no promises that he would get the new work.
Description of Work: Replaced a/c, heater, blower. Also, installed some ultraviolet lights, replaced some ducting, expanded a return and added insulation.
