We did not have the service performed, based on a final choice between Cardinal and another excellent contractor.
Description of Work: We asked for an estimate on a new HVAC system. Rick came out promptly, explained the different systems and promptly sent an estimate. He was friendly and professional. We ended up choosing another contractor but would not hesitate to use Cardinal again.

I have referred many clients to them because of the professionalism, fairness and honesty. They do excellent work and stand behind it. They know have a plumber on site which I will use when the need comes. Cardinal Heating thank you for all your hard work in meeting my time frames as I know most of them are with short notice.

Neil came out on Thursday to check out old water heater which I already presumed needed to be replaced. It wasn't a catastrophic failure of my old water heater so the install was scheduled for a week later (today). Neil and another gentleman came out and had the new water heater in and running in less than an hour, gave me a general overview and left in a punctual manner. My particular install was a (lucky for me) home warranty replacement but I would definitely give them first dibs on future projects.

Although the project is not quite complete, I wanted to contribute my review. When planning the construction of a new home, I interviewed a number of hvac contractors. I chose Cardinal because they offered the best, most comprehensive overview of the system that would work best for me. Were they the cheapest? No, but they had the best comprehensive approach,and offered the best options, which included a solar component that would qualify me for a large energy tax credit on the entire heating installation, which will ultimately save me thousands of dollars. No other company looked at the big picture in that way. They have solid experience in both conventional and solar applications and know how to blend the two for the optimal system. I've intereacted with Craig and Keith on numerous occasions and they are always very friendly and willing to stop by to explain things if I have questions, despite being as busy as they are. They are by far the most responsive contractor that I've dealt with, promptly answering any phone calls or emails. That is almost as important as pricing as far as I'm concerned. (Anyone who has done their own general contracting will understand). I give them the highest rating and would recommend them to anyone, regardless of the scope of your project.
Description of Work: Complete installation of in-floor radiant heat and supporting mechanicals. They are currently in the process of installing a solar hot-water heating array to complement the conventional water heating system.

All contact with both office staff and installers, both in person and on the phone dwas handled promptly and professionally. Everyone was very curtious. The assistance with financing was extremely helpful!
Description of Work: Furnace was failing and needed urgent replacement. Cardinal arrived to evaluate and make an estimate to replace both the furnace and and also failing air conditioner the same afternoon. The evaluation and estimate were both excellent. Cardinal also offered several financing options and office staff assisted in completing the needed paperwork. All equipment was installed 4 days later.

I used them once in June. It wasn’t an urgent matter but they sent somebody out within a couple of hours. They took care of it efficiently. In December, they cleaned out the furnace. They were also able to answer some questions for me, about our system.

Cardinal was on time to inspect and gave us an estimate the following day. I asked several questions and received their answers very quickly, in a professional manner. I signed their contract and scheduled October 17, 2011, for installation. My salesman and his assistant arrived at 7:30 AM, removed the old boiler and installed the new one. Little did I know, that my salesman was also a very well trained and excellent technical Installer! When his assistant was working on the boiler exhaust pipe, he noticed that a bathroom ceiling fan was not attached properly to the outside vent and repaired it. That extra effort was very appreciated and puts them top on my list! In total, it was a job well done! Thank you!
Description of Work: Our 18 year old gas-fired Heating Boiler died and we hired Cardinal to replace it.

They were excellent. I rate them high overall. The work they did was on a weekend, and it was pre planned. They had to do a lot of things in a short period of time. They were here for about 8 hours and they finished the work. We have had them do some other repairs as well. They are very professional.

I decided on Friday to do the furnace replacement. Two hours later, Craig was out to take detailed measurements. They had the furnace installed on Tuesday, during a snow and ice storm. They were very respectful and explained everything they had done.
Description of Work: Cardinal had come in to restart my furnace, which wouldn't fully start up. The technician managed to get the furnace running again, but highly suggested I replace the furnace (since it was over 20 years old).

It all went very smoothly. We knew that the furnace and water heater would have to be replaced when we bought our house. Initially we were considering a solar thermal hot water system as well (which turned out to be too pricey), and Cardinal was one of the firms recommended by the energy consultant in that regard as well as HVAC. Prior to quoting on the job they came out and reviewed our situation and discussed options with us. Following our acceptance of their quote they came out again and did some detailed measurements so they could prefab the sheet metal necessary to tie into our duct system and AC. They did a very professional job with the furnace installation, and their plumber sub did likewise on the water heater. The entire process took less than a day. We haven't had the heat up and running yet, but the AC (existing, new in 2006) which was tied into the new furnace and electronic controller works fine.
Description of Work: Cardinal installed a new Bryant high efficiency furnace (plus humidifier) and electronic controller for us, and (through a plumbing subcontractor) also installed a new hot water heater. They also removed the old units.

Company's been around 23 years. Been installing Goodmans for 8, Bryants nearly the entire time they've been in business. He is NATE certified, but the only one. It would take 2-3 guys one day to install the furnace. Company had a staff of 9. His dad started the company. Offered a 6 month, no payment, no interest option in order to wait for the incentive checks to arrive. Company was professional, but appeared less experienced (in the middle of the pack of the six bids we solicited). Very punctual. I appreciated his honesty about our AC unit rather than try to pressure us to buy a package.
Description of Work: Install a Bryant 355 High Efficiency Gas Furnace, Aprilaire 2200 High Efficiency Air Cleaner, remove old furnace, all duct work, electrical, venting, and gas piping, Evolution Control Thermostat, Labor and permit. Said our AC looked fine--Dates to 1989-18 year old AC. The AC has a SEER of 12--high-end when it was installed. He told us a minimum high-efficiency AC SEER is 13 today (running to 20), and we would not recoup our costs from our energy savings--that we should wait until it dies and get one then. Furnace: Recommended two furnaces, one by Bryant and one by Goodman (same as Amana and Janitrol). The difference between the two ($700 difference in price with Goodman being cheaper) was that the Goodman had a tubular heat exchanger (Bryant has a coil system) and that the Bryant has a secondary heat exchanger, maximizing efficiency. Once bid is accepted, c. 7-10 days for installation.
