They seemed to know what they were talking about. They came and did the work and did it right. When I asked them to put a pump in a certain location because of my height, they were accommodating.

Routine yearly check of furnace and maintenance. No difficulties found They are on time or call and let you know of any delays. They work quietly and wear covers on shoes. Are in an out quite efficiently. Not the same technician each time and each seems to have a different answer to questions about filter types and frequency of change. Furnace is only 2 years old and was installed by this firm.
Description of Work: Furnace check and maintenance on contract in which we pay one fee for three visits.

Response from Bethke Heating & Air Conditioning Inc
Dear Member, Thank you very much for your feedback. We take great pride in our work, and always want to learn how we can provide the best possible service. That's why I called you to ask about your experience in more detail. I apologize for any confusion regarding how often to change your furnace filters. Because you brought this concern to my attention, this topic was the focus of one of our recent weekly service technician meetings. We revisited our procedures to ensure that all technicians provide clear information. I enjoyed speaking with you. Please do not hesitate to call me directly any time you have questions or comments. Sincerely, Jeff Lindholm, President Bethke Heating & Air Conditioning

I liked the way they worked out our unique problem and helped us buy them. They really did a good job and were very professional. They gave an estimate and even when they went over the budget, they didn't charge us extra and worked things in our favor. I will use them again in the future.

I live in a very old house, and have had problems with heat ever since I'd lived there. Some of the radiators gave off heat, and some didn't. The thermostats no longer functioned. The boiler I had was about 75 years old! So when it finally came time to get a new boiler, I got bids from Bethke among others. Jeff Lindholm, Bethke's owner, gave me a very good bid for everything. After giving everything considerable thought, I went with Bethke. He sent over his best installers, Jason and Mark, and they worked all day until dusk, to get the job completed. Jason was extremely thorough and went over every single thing to make sure it was right. If he found something that wasn't quite right, he made sure it was right before he was done with it. They even cleaned up the mess on the floor of all the parts and debri that the boiler removal people had not picked up. After the installers had gone, I'd discovered a few radiators that still were not getting heat. (which were problematic for me over the years). I called Jason's work number and left a message. He called promptly at 7 am the next morning, and then again at 7:30. He and Mark were back over by 10:00 am, and they came back to the house, very professional and courteous, and worked on the cold radiators to get the water flowing through them. Jason also was concerned about a floorboard radiator that wouldn't heat, and he actually went outside, opened a window and crawled into the crawlspace to see if he could find any problems with the pipes! As it turned out, he discovered that the pipe that went into my back hallway wall was connected to the floorboard radiator and was able to get it opened for the water flow. I never knew what that pipe was, coming out of my wall and stopping about 4 feet up. I couldn't think of any function for it whatsoever! He also had to do some rewiring of the new thermostats so that the stats would control all the radiators. I was amazed and impressed at their work and thoroughness. Mark and Jason are such a good team. As it turned out, they got every single radiator and floorboard radiator to produce heat. I'm so glad I went with Bethke. My experience with Jason was very positive. His knowledge of boilers and all that is involved with them just amazed me. Just the experience of having Jason and Mark install my boiler made my decision to go with Bethke the right decision. I am very happy. Bethke has a 5-year warranty on parts and labor, and that was a plus too, as others only had one-year warranties.
Description of Work: A new boiler was installed in my home after my old boiler was removed. New thermostats were installed and wired.

We called Bethke Heating to give us a estimate for a new furnace/air install because of a coupon in the Dollars and Sense magazine. The next day, Bob, came out to give us an estimate. He stated that they had more specials going on if we purchased through them before September 30, 2011. He arrived at our house on Thursday, September 15. We showed him around, concerned that our ranch style home doesn't get as warm in the winter since we added on another room. He asked if we had gotten any other bids, and we told him that Bethke was the first company we had called so far. He suggested 2 different furnaces and did some quick figuring and told us it would cost around $7000.00. He wouldnt show us any of his figures. This included some other "free" things like a thermostat and either an April Air humidifier or an air cleaner. He pressed us to accept this bid and they could install it as early as next Tuesday (9/20). We said we needed to see an official bid in writing. He said he could get us that, but they had openings the beginning of next week to come out and install. We again said thanks, but we needed something in writing first, and that we would then have that to compare to other bids. He said he would get us a bid and either drop it off at our business or our house. We never heard from Bob again, or anyone at Bethke Heating for that matter. We have since gotten other bids, and they are all around $3100. Granted they do not include the "free" items, but one includes acutally intalling a couple more heat runs. It appears to us that Bob was trying to pull a fast one on us. It has been 3 weeks and he never got us an estimate, probably because he knew once we got other ones, we would realize he was trying to over-charge us.

Response from Bethke Heating & Air Conditioning Inc
When we received this report we were shocked. As business owners, we bring our personal values to work every day, and one of our most central values is to conduct business in an ethical manner. This report therefore raised very troubling issues. That is why we spoke at length to our salesman, and contacted this homeowner, in order to determine what happened. We believe it is imperative to correct our company's mistakes and ensure that all of our employees' actions reflect our company's core value of integrity. We learned two things: 1)There was a significant misunderstanding about the scope of work requested for an estimate. Our salesman believed he was being asked to give an estimate for a furnace, and an air conditioner, plus duct work, whereas the customer really wanted just a furnace and duct work, and indeed it appears that is all that was asked of other contractors. The $7000 ball park estimate was for all three components, and was based on high end, high efficiency equipment. In a written proposal we would typically provide lower cost options for consideration as well. If our salesman had prepared a written estimate for a furnace and duct work, there would normally be an option listed that would be similar in cost to the $3100 price range. 2) Our employee was well intentioned, but did not follow through properly on this estimate. He did not provide a written proposal and did not follow up by telephone. This is completely unacceptable. Our entire sales staff has met to discuss and analyze this situation. The salesman involved in this incident has received extensive feedback. Our entire company has learned from this situation, and we have taken steps to ensure this will not happen again. As company president, I personally telephoned the homeowners, and spoke with the husband of the Angie's List member who completed this report. After discussing this situation, I apologized to him. He accepted my apology and thanked me for taking the time to call. I noted that he still had not replaced his old air conditioner, and asked him if, when he was ready to do so, he would feel comfortable calling Bethke Heating & Air Conditioning to give us a second chance to provide an estimate. He answered that yes, he would feel comfortable doing so. Jeff Lindholm, President, Bethke Heating & Air Conditioning

We got an estimate regarding a repair to our AC unit. This amount was based on the parts the rep. thought we needed. Later we were informed that the parts the rep thought we needed was not quite right. Instead of bending over backwards to helps us they suggested we contact a company that knows more about the brand we have. I respect a repairman who is upfront about what he/she does or don't know but in this case it felt more as if they couldn't be bothered. When it comes time to replace our unit (which will be soon) I'll be going with a more accommodating company.
Description of Work: My only issue with this company is that they didn't have enough knowledge or diplomacy regarding units they don't sell themselves.

Response from Bethke Heating & Air Conditioning Inc
Thank you very much for your feedback regarding our company. We would certainly like to learn more about your experience because what you describe does not reflect the way we normally approach equipment repairs. Sometimes we give out general information by telephone, but our technicians cannot actually diagnose problems and estimate repairs without examining and testing the equipment. However, if something we did was not satisfactory, we would appreciate both the opportunity to make it right, as well as the opportunity to learn and improve our company. Frankly, we are puzzled by your posting. We have reviewed our telephone answering service logs and can find no record of your having contacted our company. The service technician on call on the date you specify does not remember speaking to you. There is no record that a service technician went to your home to diagnose your air conditioner problem. In addition, after seeing your report our office staff attempted to contact you, but a telephone number listed for you online was disconnected. We tried to send an email to an address found online, but our email went unanswered. We apologize if you did indeed have a less than satisfactory experience with our company. However, based on the limited information we received, it is not clear whether it was our company that you contacted. We invite you to contact us directly. Because we take great pride in providing excellent service, we would welcome your suggestions and feedback. Sincerely, Bethke Heating & Air Conditioning

Although we ultimately chose to use the heating contractor who had maintained our existing system over the past 5-6 years, Harker Heating and Cooling, to do this work, Bethke was a very close second choice. It's owner, Jeff Lindholm, was very knowledgeable, instructive and helpful in assisting us to determine the kind of system that would work best for us. Their pricing was competitive and it was a difficult choice, but we ultimately decided to use the contractor with whom we had personal experience, rather than using one with whom we had no personal experience.

It was an excellent experience. They arrived early, very professional, we like the work they did, the furnace a brand we never heard of is terrific heating our house. They also replaced our water heater, it's larger than the old one, not sure that was necessary because we never ran out of water with the smaller old one.
