Get matched with top furnace / forced air heating system install or replace pros in Haverhill, MA

"Druziako ordered and replaced the game furnace with the unit and brand we requested. The crew arrived on time and worked until they completed the job which included removing the old furnace and condenser and then installing the new furnace and condenser and retro-fitting all the pipes and vents to fit the new system."

"I did not get a tune-up at all, I only got an inspection that they called a tune-up. They did not even clean the furnace. For my money they said they would send me a list of things that needed to be done, including cleaning, but I never even received that list."

"The process was slow initially as I had to interview several HVAC before finding 3 who were willing to do the work. One was priced much too high and I didn't like the initial proposal of the placement of lines. Another contractor didn't fill me with confidence and they are part of a company that split off with different franchises (I believe). NETR's contact person, Russell, who evaluated the project was open to the idea as well as followed up with technical advice as this was a nonconforming application. After several reviews by NETR personnel and outside engineers to make sure there was enough airflow for the compressor, where and how to run the lines inside the loft; I had my carpenter build an aluminum box which took time as it was custom-ordered of sheets to be build on premises. After it was setup, NETR took over, evaluated the box, re-reviewed the plans, and subsequently sent 2 very competent techies. The job took 3 1/2 days which was fine with me. The last day a 3rd technician replaced one who had to go over to another job. They were polite and answered any questions I had. They left the place in clean condition. The system lines looks very nicely put together, works beautifully, cools the condo very nicely (remember 23 5' high windows w/plenty of solar gain). They subcontracted an experienced electrician who's expert workmanship convinced me that I will use him for future work. Terrific company who's customer service is conscientious and with good follow-through. Their abilities and experience revealed themselves in this application and I'm very grateful that they wanted to try out this nonconforming application as the only options left to me were window ACs which I find unsatisfactory, and in the bedroom impossible to sleep with while on.

"I am a general contracting company and highly recommend this company for any heating or a/c problems. Also for any new installations. Thank you"

"Justin and Cam, the technicians, did a great job. We have an old farmhouse with a very strange configuration of partial crawlspace and partial full basement, and water was leaking through the fieldstone foundation wall from the crawlspace. They quickly diagnosed that the problem was coming from 1 or 2 zones of the hot water radiator heating system, and they were able to shut off those zones to stop the leak, while allowing the house to still use water for sinks, toilets, and showers. We'll have to do more work later to replace pipes to the radiator but, because they are hard to access, we need to plan ahead for some construction work. I'm fully satisfied that these guys were able to find the problem and give us even a temporary solution that allows us to have our working plumbing again without the basement getting wet. Would definitely work with them again."

"Probably the best contractor I ever worked with. They delivered exactly what they promised, on time and without any hassle. They replaced my 24-year old oil furnace with a highly efficient gas boiler and water heater. Jeff and team organized everything, including permits, the timing of the oil tank and boiler removal, the delivery of the different heating system parts and plumbing supplies and the gas meter installation. They worked very efficiently and left the place cleaner than it was before. I can't stop admiring the wall with the new piece of art of engineering I have now in my expanded basement! I would highly recommend J. Griffin Heating and Plumbing to anyone looking for upgrading their current heating system."

"He was timely, professional and responsive. He clearly knows the technical aspects of the trade and provided us with a lot of information about the equipment he would be installing and how it would work with our existing ductwork.  We did not care for his sales approach because he tried to sell us on things we did not ask for and did not need.  He tried to sell us on a humidifier for the system which we really don't need because we live right by the ocean where it is quite humid year round, even in the winter. Adding humidity to our house could cause problems with mildew or mold.   He also tried to sell us on replacing our hot water tank for a more efficient model even though ours is only 5 years old.  We got the feeling that he was trying to pack as much sales onto the heat loan program without really thinking about the customer's specific situation, and that put off me and my husband from wanting to work with him.  At the end of his sales presentation he decided on the spot he would give us an unspecified discount.  We did not like this high pressure sales tactic.  We had not received other quotes yet so we declined to decide on the spot.  He emailed us a couple days later offering a 10% discount if we decided by a certain date a couple days later.  We decided to wait beyond that date so we could get more bids.
Joe's quote was $2000 higher than a quote from another installer who has equally good reviews on Angies list.  Both quotes were to install the same equipment, however the second installer included the cost of converting two unused ducts into returns and installing a pass though in a ceiling to help balance our system.  I shared this information with Joe, and he responded by saying he would beat their price by $100.  It goes to show that it pays to shop around. 
As Airco's good reviews on Angies list attest and my interactions with him, I am sure they would do quality work, but my husband and I were totally put off by his sales and pricing approach and did not want to work with the company as a result.

"Thank you ZACK for your professionalism taking pictures of the work you did cleaning the filters of my A/C system outside. This is the first time anyone showed me pictures of the work they did. You were kind and explained to me when was the best time to have my heating system checked and when to call to make an appt. for the fall. You were knowledgeable, caring, and I felt safe with you. What a GREAT employee to represent Palmer Gas. Also, Thank you Customer Service Rep. MICHELLE L. - you answered all questions asked of you in a friendly and professional way. That is why I stay with Palmer Gas. Heidi Ricci"

"We've used Atlantic Heating and Air Conditioning for over 10 years for regular air conditioning maintenance/service and repairs. They also do service/repairs for our heating system. Recently, they provided valuable advice that allowed us to fix a thermostat malfunction on our own, saving us cost of a visit. We've always been satisfied with this company - visits were easy to schedule, staff were knowledgeable, work performed was well done."

"He went above and beyond to service my furnace. Even though I was scheduled for Friday, when he finished early on Thursday he called and came a day early (My furnace would not turn on). He was extremely polite and respectful. I recommended this company to all my friends and family"
