"three and sometimes four men did the removal of the old unit and the install of the new unit. All were very professional while at the same time very friendly and personable. They did an excellent job."

"Our AC recently went out and Rhett was the only contractor who was willing to move around his schedule to accommodate us. Within 1 week we were up and running again. He and Jason were so professional and knowledgeable and we really enjoyed talking to them. After they finished the job, you would never have known they were there. Left the area cleaner than it probably was before they came!! Absolutely recommend them and wish them well with their company. Thanks guys!!!"

"I guess the price alright. It's about what we paid in Charlotte with another company, maybe just a tiny bit less. But I guess it's the what the prevailing rate is. We had somebody else to do the work, and they didn't do; and we paid them more. We have signed up to use them for our maintenance service for the furnace and air conditioner."

"I want to thank Angie's List for helping me know about local companies and all their information, to make a clear choice. I called the company and talked to the lady in the office. She was really helpful and explained the differences in the systems, cost and answered other questions I had. She took her time with me and didn't 'talk down' to me but made me feel at ease and knowledgeable of the products. She said she'd have Mike, owner, come out to check the unit I was telling her about and answer any questions I had. He was right on time and was great to explain everything in terms I could understand. He checked the unit and told me what was wrong and my options. I never at any time feel pressured to have it repaired or buy a new unit. I had all the information I needed to decide, and I took overnight to decide. He put a new part in my old unit, to get it up and running. He said he'd leave it in place while I was deciding what I wanted to do - repair or replace. My unit was about 20 years old, and was at the time not working. He was very nice and thoughtful and never pushy or intimidating. When the unit was installed several days later, a new thermostat was also installed. I was given instructions on it and how to set it up with my computer and cell phone. The old unit, and all the mess involved in the installation, was cleaned up and hauled away. I'd recommend this company to anyone. Great job and the nicest people."

"I would absolutely recommend Cool Comfort Heating & Air Company.  I have dual systems installed by them in my home.  They replaced one of them in the spring last year.  They are the only ones I use.  I would continue to use them in the future."

"Zack is great to deal with. He is so down to earth, honest and up-front about everything. I cannot recommend him enough. We will most certainly use him for any future projects we may have. So glad we found him. We had a single mini-split with two heads installed and his work is excellent."
