I was told initially the project would take a full day to replace the furnace and AC. We were lucky that a second crew became available and 4 people showed up and wrapped up the project in a little over 4hours.

Very thorough and responded quickly. I did not know there was a leak and they located it on initial visit.

Very well. The installers arrived on time, did the removal of the old unit and installation of the new unit, tested the new unit, carefully explained how the new thermostat works, cleaned up thoroughly, and left. Bell Brothers completed the Mid-American rebate application and sent it along with the bill.

We had very good service from Bell Brothers. That's who we use for our, just maintenance. About four years ago, we got new air conditioning from them.

They had been servicing our stuff for years. We had a 40 year old air conditioner that they replaced. With the furnace, that was the 3rd furnace in our house. We found out we had a bad heat exchange during a service inspection. It was over 20 years old. The quality of service was excellent. They came out as soon as they could. It could not have been done any faster. There are other heating and air conditioner companies in Des Moines but I have not used anyone else for years.

There were two guys, One came and finished up for the other because he had a sick wife. You pay for what you get. You could go and get one for a cheap price but I am not sure what kind of quality you would get. I do not worry about them coming into my home.

I have used them for the last 25 years. I have service with them twice a year, one for my heating and another time for my cooling. They have always been great, that's why I stay with them. I have a maintenance contract. It usually takes about 45 minutes to an hour. They are professional.

It went very well. Bell Brothers has been taking care of our furnaces and airconditioners for 29 years and have done a great job, always came right away when we needed them, have serviced them and kept them all running and in good shape.

"Thanks for the review and your ongoing business. We appreciate you choosing us for your installations and service so many years!"

When they did our air conditioner they spent about an hour cleaning things out and checking everything.I was impressed with the amount of work they did on a check up. I would definitely recommend.

Great knowledgable technician, lousy service. They had installed the unit and yet when service had not been done for several years according to their records (mine too) & they were called by a new owner to service an operating system they failed to send the technician with the appropriate air filter???? Sad lack of foresight? A costly offer to have a filter delivered immediately? A length trip to town for a filter at their shop at rush hour?
Response from Bell Brothers Heating and Air Conditioning, Inc.
"Thank you for your feedback; it is comments like this that help us improve our processes. Unfortunately, due to space limitation of our trucks, we are unable to stock every type of filter needed for all customers. With the unit not having service since installation we did not have a filter size on record. We made the decision to have the correct filter delivered at no additional cost to you to get you back up and running as quickly as possible to make the best of not ideal situation."

Great crew, left my basement cleaner than it was, they even took an old water heater that was sitting down there free of charge.

We were happy with Bell Brothers from start to finish. We have an older home with an AC unit that was at least 25 years old. Bell Brothers came out, explained our option, and guided us toward an option that wasn't necessarily the most expensive. Their installers were good at what they did, and they didn't leave our home or yard a mess. We would absolutely hire them again.

It was under warranty and we just had to pay for some warranty. We are on a contract where they come out twice a year to check it out. I have used them for the whole time we have been here about 12 years.

It went great. Initially was only going to have two supply runs replaced but Tom, on inspecting the ductwork did three. His sheet metal work is awesome! Also the dryer vent looks great. He had to go through brick to install it and it took quite some time to get the hole drilled.

"Thank you for your review and kind words about Tom. We appreciate your business."
