"Estimate was great compared to several others. Was honest and upfront about costs. A/C working like so much better now after their suggestions. Few issues while installing but they were very apologetic and went above and beyond to fix them."

"I hired Full Efficiency to do the spring tune up for our central AC. Carlos arrived on time, wearing PPE, got to work right away with the spring tune up, and cleaned up after himself when he completed the job. He is a very professional, friendly man. We plan to have him back in the fall to prepare our furnace for the cold weather months!"

"My furnace was installed by someone else that did a very poor job. I could not replace the filter without smashing it and smashing the new one to put in. Ridiculous! I had All Temp come out and they were able to do a quick fix so I didn't have to struggle with it anymore. He was on time, pleasant. He even put up with my dog wanting to say hello to him, Definitely would hire again!"

"I had a great experience with their HVAC services. They repaired my electrical baseboard heater quickly and made sure everything was working perfectly before leaving. The team was professional, punctual, and very knowledgeable. They also installed our new central A/C system smoothly with no issues at all. Communication was clear throughout the process, and the pricing was fair. Highly satisfied with the quality of work and customer service. I would definitely recommend them for any heating or cooling needs."

"Installation went well. I chose by "YELP" referrals . I feel I over paid out of sheer desperation. A/C was shot . The salesman was a bit cocky, arrogant. I needed it & I got it fast. Salesman claims of an $ 1800. rebate were B.S.. I was apparently taken off the final price. Very SLY !!! Still they are highly recommended.on YELP................................... P.S. Installer was a Pro . Thus I feel secure in that area."

"The sump pump in my house started to make buzzing sound. I call the company on Saturday and was pleasantly surprised to get a call back. A technician came on Sunday. He confirmed the pump has died. He gave me two options: he can install a new one right away or I can buy a new one and he can come back to install. Since the one he has isn't what I like, I decided to go with second option. I really like the honesty and being given the options. The new pump was installed the next day by the same technician, who looks like having done it many times. Everything works perfectly afterward. I would recommend them to anyone."

"Installation of a new furnace and air conditioner was done. We were so impressed with the professionalism and follow through of the CR Mechanical team. Rick contacted us promptly and advised us of our options and his recommendations for our project. We did some additional homework and decided to hire CR Mechanical. Craig arrived on schedule and installed the furnace and did some additional pipe work the first day. On the second day, the AC was installed on the new compressor was relocated to a new area that we had discussed. The job was completed as agreed with efficiency and neatness. I would recommend CR Mechanical with hesitation."
