"I could not choose repair of well cap but Happy Home does do plumbing repairs. After 30 years the well cap started leaking. Mike came and immediately found the problem. Parts had to be ordered and Mike and Calvin did an outstanding job repairing an old old piece of equipment. Mike came the day I called Happy Home to help with this problem. I highly recommend them!!"

At Comfort Monster, we live by our motto, "Service So Good... It's Scary!" There are reasons why we were recently voted IndyWeek's Best of the Triangle for HVAC, why we have such a high rating on Angie's List and other review sites, and why our customers call us back to their homes year after year. Our technicians average more than 10 years of experience, and they get no incentives for selling you anything. Their focus is on helping you make informed HVAC decisions, not pushing services you don't need. Our system replacement estimates are always no-obligation and 100% free, and we will make financing your new system easy. A few of our credentials: NATE certified, Carrier Factory Authorized Dealer, licensed and insured.

"Everything was great! Tim was wonderful to work with, showed up early for each appointment, and CM's use of technology is very much appreciated."
