"Thank you very much! We truly appreciate our customers!"
"Thank you for the great review!"
The service tech from East Coast was a no-show on the original date expected. It was explained that he was "not feeling well" that day. However on the day he did show up, he didn't recall this. So I guess that wasn't true after all.
First time using this company. He was only here to do what was billed and requested as a maintenance visit on two central a/c units. He set to work on the basement unit and soon announced he was finished. I asked, did you clean out the condensate pump? He said that was not part of his service. (However later I checked the invoice and in print was "clean condensate drain".) This service has ALWAYS been included with every such visit I've had from HVAC service providers in the past. I know this because the guys always needed a cup or water to clean out the pump and drain.
Next the attic unit, and that went very quickly as well.
Then we went to the outside units. After trying to sell me two expensive parts - note both units are operating perfectly - he said he was finished. I looked at the outside units and noticed the leaves and debris were not cleaned out. I asked why. He said that I should check my contract, that he was only there to "check things" but not to actually DO anything or clean anything out.
In other words, no actual maintenance was done! Only checking of things. And attempting to sell me 2 parts, $170 each. Parts which I later found online for around $15. Plug in parts, capacitors.
I had high hopes for this company as they had a good profile on Angie's List and are local. However I would never use them again. My a/c units are 10 years old but I would never use East Coast for installation. I will use my oil company who I should have gone to in the first place.
