Get matched with top central humidifier installers and replacers in Laurel, MD

"I am an engineer and I know everything about air conditioning. I could do the installation myself, but I do not have a permit to work with some freons, and I do not have all the required tools, so I had to call a HVAC company to replace an old 2.5 ton heat pump system (that used R-22) with a new 2.5 ton heat pump system (that uses R-410A). The freon compressor in the old system had a short circuit to the ground, but because of the R-22 phaseout I had to replace the entire system rather than just the dead compressor. I contacted 13 companies that work in my area. 9 of them told me that they were very busy and could not take new orders. 4 companies sent salesmen who gave me price estimates. Three of the four price estimates included items that were not necessary, which is what pushed the prices up. When two people (Debbie Thomas and Ron Thomas) from Maryland Heating and Cooling showed up, they started to discuss with each other (in my presence) which items I do not need to replace; this would save me money. In the end they decided that none of the existing duct work needs to be modified and that the old copper freon lines are in good shape and can be re-used, all the wiring and fuses need not be replaced, and the old thermostat is perfectly fine. In the end they came up with the lowest price; significantly lower than the three other offers. Furthermore, they were able to do the installation on the second day after I signed the contract and paid the deposit. I was watching them while they did the work, and I am confident that they did everything right, because I understand exactly what they were doing and why. In other words, they did not cut any corners. And they were completely honest with their price estimate. I was very impressed. I can recommend this company."

"I had them replace my entire HVAC system (furnance + AC). They did a great job through the whole process. Out of four quotes I received, they were the only ones that took the time to do a full heating and cooling load calculation for my house when they came to do an estimate in addition to making detailed measurements of our utility room to make sure anything they installed would fit. They gave me three proposals ranging from low-end, mid-range, and high end options and explained the equipment in each of them in detail, including documenting all the model numbers, efficiency ratings, and specs. What they recommended matched up with my research I did prior to receiving estimates. They were very responsive, knowledgeable, and professional so I gave them the job. The crew arrived on time, worked hard the whole day, were respectful of my house, and did not require supervision (although, they told me I was more than welcome to ask questions and watch anything they were doing). They cleaned up, explained the warranty and rebate options with all the paperwork already filled out so that all I had to do was sign--they even mailed both the warranty and rebate off for me. The whole process went great. While their prices were fair they were not the cheapest, but I have no doubt they did a great job, didn't cut corners, and will stand by their work if I experience any problems. They are a reasonably sized HVAC business and not a one-man-band shop like many places in the area, so I know they will likely still be around through the life of the warranty and are well staffed to respond to emergencies, including a 24/7 emergency service number. Overall, we're very happy with the new system and it's a huge improvement over what it replaced--both the AC and furnace are much quieter than the old units, more energy efficient, and perform better. It's been a month since the install and everything has been working fine without problems."

"Brian, the electrician, explained procedures and costs before starting. All installations went very well. After encountering barrier to installing an outlet, he figured it out and the results were great. Personable and professional."

"From not having a water supply for my whole home bypass humidifier, to having a repaired, new water supply line and instant winter comfort. All in less than two hours.

"Very well. Technician, John, was patient and thorough as he cleaned and took readings of the systems. He took the time to walk me through the maintenance and care that I need to take care of the Heating and water heater systems of my newly acquired condo in Fairfax County Virginia."

"Excellent customer service. HVAC installers were great, showed up on time. Dave and Allen answered my many questions during the install. I Interviewed several local HVAC companies before deciding on Beltway. Highly recommend"

"Service installed a humidifier and condensate pump. Promptly scheduled and performed the installation. Customer service and work quality were great."

"Went well. It was determined that the initial installation did not include the thermostat controller and that had to be rectified. Seems to be working well now."

"I called Buric (on advice of friend/neighbor) when A/C wasn't working and I asked what to expect in their charges. The guy on the phone told me they charge a flat $95 (or $99?) for driving out here. So I asked if they charge by the hour or half hour. No, he said, by the job. He couldn't give me an estimate because he didn't know what was wrong. So, a technician came out and diagnosed my unit (which blew air but didn't get cold) as old & dead and needing replacement. So, in my mind, there was really there was no job outside of replacement. In their mind, they did a job by taking 10 minutes to look at the unit and tell me there was nothing to be done for it. So, instead of charging me $99 for coming out, they charged me $230 for coming out AND telling me the unit couldn't be fixed. That irritated me. Then I asked for a bid for new system. The guy went out and talked on the phone to his boss and come back with a written bid. I later compared it with my second bid from another co. Buric's bid was higher than the company I selected, but not enough to sway me if I had liked their way of doing business. However, the previous (over)charge, which was not explained by the guy I spoke to when I first called, left such a bad taste in my mouth I couldn't go with them. So that extra $130 they made cost them around $5000. I hope it was worth it to them. BTW, if I had gone with them, they would have subtracted the $230 from the bid, but I just couldn't get past it. So, I am not saying anything about the quality of their work--it may be just fine, but I don't like the way they did business."
