"Everyone is professional, courteous, and knowledgeable. I wanted to have them replace my unit...I just couldn't afford it even though they were fairly priced. I trust them and each check up goes well. I was told when I would probably need to address my issues was not forced to tricked into buying anything,"

"Excellent job done professionally and neatly. Excellent communication and whatever promised fulfilled. 2 years labor warranty given. 12 years on parts from GE They took the old unit and installed the new one professionally and neatly, installed 2 thermostats inside the house. Stayed there to test it thoroughly. Brandon Watts and Chris made things possible even when unit was not in stock (Not until 3 days later), they travelled to Greenville just to install it as promised because I was traveling the next day. He did not charge extra. His labor charge is very affordable. I am going to sign up a maintenance contract with Gonzo for 2 yearly visits for $189. I believe it’s worth it to extend the life of the unit. I recommend Gonzo HVAC to everyone without hesitation. Good job and thanks."
