"They came to do an install and did a very good job."

"One of the best contractor experiences we have ever had. Jim called the day before to confirm the appointment. Larry the Plumber was so nice to deal with. He put on she covers to protect my wood floors, worked very neatly and gave us some tips about ongoing maintenance. He did a perfect job. This review us for Petro in central NJ. i was not able to change the company location. We hired them through Amazon."

"We were doing some upgrades in our older house and I wanted to have central A/C and to remove the old baseboard heating system. I contacted a couple of the larger A/C contractors and they all came in around the same price while using different manufacturers and in some cases even different sized systems. I found an ad for Green Heating and called Dan who quickly scheduled a visit. I liked Dan from the start. He's down to earth and personable. His price was excellent, he was a couple thousand dollars cheaper than one of the other contractors while quoting almost the same equipment (one of the components that Dan used was a new version than the other guy quoted). When we were finally ready for the installation, Dan worked with me to schedule the installation and he did it in the time promised and in the time frame he quoted. I like the system and we were very comfortable in our home this summer, which was hot and this was the first summer that we've had whole house AC. In 9 months we have had 0 issues with the system. I whole heartedly recommend Dan and will use him when general system checks or any maintenance is needed."

"He was very professional. He also came out "on time" and quickly
identified the issue. Took the time to explain to me what was happening
and gave me a few insights about my AC unit. All in All, I was very
pleased with his service.
The refrigerant cost a pretty penny, but I can't blame that on him. I looked around and it seems like that
was a fair price.  I don't know how much control he (or anybody) has over that.
I would definitely use his services again.

"Had a problem with my dryer and when the repair tech showed up he told me it was a vent issue and recommended Murphy's. They scheduled me up within a few days, confirmed, arrived on time, and finished up within and hour or so. They not only cleaned out my dryer vent, they repaired it in a way I would not have been able to and gave my wife and I some tips we were unaware of that will save the life of our dryer in the long-term. Their price was reasonable for the labor and the parts, they were totally professional and would recommend them to anyone needing dryer vent service. Thanks to both Pat and Josh - old fashioned great customer service and thanks to John at J & J TV and Appliance Repair for the connection."

"Great! Keith, Bunnie and their team are professional, pleasant and knowledgeable. They communicate, they are on time, they work cleanly and go the extra mile for service questions. They do not rush and Keith makes certain the customer is pleased with the progress and workmanship. In the Fall 2021, I had the heater replaced and just this past month, 2022 I had AIRCO return to do the air conditioning installation. I own an older home and it required a little extra TLC which Keith planned for and made adjustments as needed. I highly recommend them for any services ...."

"Great, they were friendly and professional. I also had a crack in my windshield that needed to be replaced, they advised me of a person they use and the cost. No pressure to go with their provider. I chose to go with another glass company and I just had to return to get my inspection stickers put onto my new windshield.

"AC was installed by another company listed on Angie's in 2014. Without a maintenance agreement, they charged $89+tax just to come out and check the system. I was then told that the coil needed to be acid washed at a cost of an additional $207+tax. I thought this a bit much for a system that was not that old. Herring's had an offer on Angie's for $84.55 for a 20-point Tune-up including cleaning the coil. Andrew from Herring's checked out the system in the attic and the outside unit and found that the amount of coolant in the system was not what the manufacturer specified. He added two pounds and only charged for one pound @$80, in addition to the $89. He said the coil did not need cleaning. He also suggested we try using a thinner filter in the return vent to see if that helps. A friend has since told me that $80 per pound for coolant is steep, but since he gave one pound free it worked out about right. The AC seemed to be working much better, but the weather cooled down and we have not had 90+ degree days since then, In fact, it has been off for two days of cool weather. I will see how it does when we get another hot spell."

"Mike Zam and his worker Albert cleaned all my air ducts, registers, and dryer vent. I paid $530 for the first 15 ducts and vents. After that I paid $20 per additional duct and vent. I paid $100 for the dryer vent cleaning for a total of $740. While the work was being completed Mr. Zam made a strong sales pitch for another $1400 to be paid for an Air Scrubbers Plus--a whole house air purifier which is attached to the furnace. He also strongly advised me to pay another $310 to have the coil blades in my furnace cleaned. (I got him down to $270) While he was taking the bottom part of my Lennox furnace apart he received a phone call. He then told me he had to leave and than another service man would call me the next day to do the job. As a result, I had time to call my HVAC service man to discuss these high price additions. He informed me that neither was needed. I checked online regarding the Air Scubbers Plus and found out that the whole- house air purifier's effectiveness greatly diminishes the farther away a room is from the unit. After the men (about 2 1/2 hrs or so) I discovered a lower register hanging off the wall in my living room. In my bedroom the upper and lower registers were reinstalled backwards, making it impossible to slide the lever controlling the louvers. To move the lever necessitated a hammer and a screwdriver. My recommendation to anyone considering air duct cleaning is to watch the process closely. I did not with Eco Friendly Services. And I regret it."

"We finally gave up on constantly maintaining our ‘builders quality’ original York HVAC and heater. The heater worked fine if inefficient, but the AC coils had a leak which was not divulged when we bought the 8 year old house. When we bought it the owners must have just charged it up, so the slow leak wouldn’t be discovered until a full year later when we went to start up the AC the next summer. The problem was ours to handle now and seeing that we had other problems to deal with, it was never in the budget to do more than just get it recharged year after year. Regulations changed, refrigerant changed, time aged the system, and parts became scarce. Finally after 11 years of dealing with it and tinkering with the concept of replacing the entire thing, we decided the time to do it was summer 2015 (yes a year + ago). We obtained quotes from our regular HVAC repair company, as well as Horizon, and Green Electric, Heating & Cooling. We tried to obtain quotes for everything as comparable as possible. Min 95% efficiency, 100k BTU Heater 3.5 to 4 ton Coil with 16 Seer Puron Condensing Unit 50 gallon Water Heater (replaced the first one when we just moved in 2003) The Green representative was very professional and friendly. He pointed out the options and listened to my concerns without making me feel like he needed to be somewhere else. Horizon sent some guy that was a little bit cocky but knew his stuff. I am familiar with the Horizon company but have never given them any work to this day. Our regular HVAC guy did everything by phone since we had been going back and forth for a few years discussing the available options, but his tech was getting a bit on the old side and his efficiency ratings were not quite what we wanted once we tried to balance everything out between offers. Our normal guy offered Ruud. Horizon offered Lennox. Green offered Bryant. Everyone offered the same Bradley White water heater, but I toyed with the idea of a higher efficiency model which required a powered vent and dedicated pipes to the outside. After all the quotes were obtained, we began to get high pressure calls from Horizon where they were offering a discount if we come to a decision “NOW”! Apparently they had a team ready to do an install, but it was cancelled and they wanted to do something to fill the time. We don’t react to high pressure situations, and immediately crossed them off the list. I received a call from a manager a few days later and described the situation in detail. He was not happy with what I told him regarding his employee behaviors. So is life. My wife and I deliberated for a bit longer, made best and final requests to obtain better pricing and confirm certain things would be done, and then locked in with Green. We decided on the following: 97% efficiency, 100k BTU heater, infinitely variable heat (not single or two stage). Infinitely variable fan. 4 ton evaporator coil. 3.5ton 16 seer condensing unit, single stage, but we got the ultra quiet version. You can stand 2 feet away from it and talk with someone at normal volume. It is silent from 10 feet away. Standard 50 gallon water heater. We set a date and then proceeded to cross our fingers that we made the right decision. Things moved very quickly after that. This was going to be a full swap out which required bringing everything to current township regulations. This meant PVC piping to the exterior foundation wall for the high efficiency furnace, new valves and switches, new copper lines, extra ductwork and dampers, new outdoor pad for the new condensing unit, and a new thermostat. They showed up bright and early in the morning. 2 guys started the teardown. They asked me a few simple questions about if I wanted the Heating unit at the same elevation and the preferred “front” orientation of the heater. Later for the pipe routing of the heater vents, we had to move boxes out of the way so they could drill large holes for the PVC pipe. None of this was an issue. The old unit was ripped out and taken away as if it was never there, and very cleanly and without drama. Then while the ductwork was opened, they educated me in the damper system that was installed in our ductwork that may cause air distribution issues, and then showed me how to adjust it seasonally. The builders installed a damper above the heater that 30% blocked the exit flow. This damper is there to balance out the upstairs in the summer and winter. It was near impossible to see without someone pointing it out as the handle was between other ductwork. It was very educational. They also noticed what they called a “short circuit” in the ductwork. There was a duct return that came into a header in a narrow duct but the expansion was about 2 feet down further. They moved the flex hose of the return to the expansion just to help balance out the flow. Again, very educational. There was no extra cost or fanfare with this. About 6 hours into the build, another person showed up to help. He immediately started on the hot water heater. The old one had no issues but it was 10 years old. This was a quick swap as we decided not to go with the high efficiency model with the powered vent, since it would require cutting two more holes in the foundation wall. About 8 hours after they started, they were cleaning up. They helped push all the boxes back for me, swept the floors, and proceeded to show me the awesome Bryant HVAC control. It is wifi enabled and can be controlled remotely via an app on your phone. And I do mean FULL control. Full programming, full error reporting, full adjustments of all profiles. The color touch screen looks great and the app duplicates the screen perfectly, so there is no re-learning how to do the things you need. It is also one of those thermostats where you set the high and low points and it will keep the temperature in that range. No longer do you have to switch from “hot” to “cool”. It also has the installer phone number programmed into it, and has full diagnostic self-checking capabilities so it can send a call for help should it need it. It can also report the weather forecast. In a word, it is “wonderful”. Overall, we are extremely satisfied. We have used the AC for two seasons now and the heater for one season so far. I cannot say the electric bills have gotten lower, and the primary reason for that is that we now use it ALL THE TIME. The condensing unit does not struggle to get the temp where we want it. But since the house is drafty, it runs frequently. The old unit we would just shut it off for days at a time if we could bear with the heat as it would run all day long, so in theory it was cheaper since we shut it down. Our gas bill has gone down 30% when compared to the same period last year. I am very satisfied with the installation crew, the installation itself, and the functionality of the installed system. About one year later, I realized I completely forgot I needed to get the township to inspect the installation. The inspector came out and found the tiniest problem. Apparently kids like to huff Puron. The outdoor fill ports on the condensing unit needed these little colorful locking caps installed. Because of this I did not pass inspection and called Green to remedy the situation. They were out within 24 hours and installed the caps. No charge, no fuss. The inspector came back, and gave everything a clean bill of health. He also personally told me without my provoking, that my installation is one of the best he has seen in the county. He specifically pointed out how clean the install was, and the use of full pvc schedule 40 pipe, all glued, for the heater vents as something he sees other installers cheapen out on. He was impressed. I continue to be."
