I’ve been using Modern Mechanical as my go to provider for about five years. They just completed my annual furnace check up and explained what was making a strange noise and answered all my questions. I will continue to use them in the future for my HVAC needs. Their employees are professional, polite and well trained.

Fixed amazingly fast. Some wires were accidently disconnected by some contractors, and the electricians couldn't get it to run despite fixing the wires. The Modern Mechanical technician checks it over, realizes the problem ... and flips the resettable fuse in the furnace. Sometimes it takes intuitive problem solving to fix something easily and quickly--wish the electricians figured that out!

It went great once I talked with Jake from Modern Mechanical. He was very honest, upfront and his quote was very reasonable. He was very patient with my questions and very timely in responding. They crews that sis the install was very professional and did a great job. All the paperwork, rebates etc were taken care of by the folks in the office. We couldn't by happier!

Our furnace, AC, and water heater were all 20 years old and rather than keep throwing money in them each year we deciding to take the plunge and replace them all this year. After researching HVAC companies on Angie's List and other sites, I decided to get quotes from four companies and ultimately decided to go with Modern Mechanical which I am glad I did. Jake and his team were outstanding to work with from the initial bid process, to explaining the quote and answering questions, to the final install. Not only that, but the costs were on par or better than the 3 other companies I got quotes from and Modern Mechanical was by far the quickest to get back to me on scheduling the initial quote, coming out to my house to inspect my current system, getting back to me with the final quote, and coming out to install. I would absolutely recommend contacting them if you are looking for a new furnace, AC, and/or water heater!

I contacted them Thursday to repair a leak in the A/C after they had installed a pump last summer to help with drainage.  They actually offered to come out the next day.  But, I had them wait until an early morning appointment so they did not have to suffer through the attic heat.  So we scheduled a Monday morning appointment and they came right out and fixed it.  These guys do a great job and are very responsive to communications.  Everything flowed smoothly without anyone getting all hot and bothered.   You will not have anything to vent about with these people, and they will not give you the freeze out.

Worked really well last year.  Since running it this year, I noticed it is leaking onto the ceiling.  I just sent a message.  I'm sure they will take care of it.

Jake at Modern Mechanical was awesome. He checked everything in the HVAC system, and shared what he was doing during the visit (I tend to ask a lot of questions). He provided me with a fair deal and completed the service expediently. As new questions arose about other HVAC-related updates down the line, Jake was more than happy to help me understand the differences between various product options, and what would make the most sense for my home and budget.

Our HVAC went down last night and upon discovering it we went to Angie's List and went down the list of top providers.  Modern Mechanical was the 1st to actually pick up the phone and we were able to schedule time with a service technician (Chris) later in the afternoon.  At about Noon, Chris contacted us and let us know he could be there early if that worked for our schedule.  It did and he was able to get here two hours ahead of time. 
Chris showed up as promised and was able to diagnose the problem and perform the repairs quickly.
Could not give a higher recommendation based upon my experience with Modern Mechanical today.

Friendly and professional from start to finish.  I got bids from over a dozen companies rated highly by Angie's list and did a lot of research for my heat pump replacement.   Modern Mechanical was not the cheapest but was the best value and quoting experience.  They deserve their rating. 
They took their time to listen to what I needed, make recommendations that would solve my issues, and explain why.   They answered additional questions along the way, providing options and their opinions.  They took the time to properly measure and calculate the tonnage that I needed (no one else did).  They arrived on time, protected my house, took the time to install the equipment correctly and even went beyond the agreed upon job to remove an item that was no longer of use.  
Excellent Job all around.   I have not had the best of luck in Des Moines with home service companies until now.  Save yourself some time and give these guys a call.

It went well. Tim was friendly, personable and professional. He answered all my questions. He said our system was in good condition. It worked well all summer, so I guess that's a good sign. I am happy with the service and will use Modern Mechanical again in the future.

Jake came out to install the system even though his partner was off because of family health issues. He got a lot done that first day. His partner came back to help even though he had just lost a family member. They ask several times if I wanted something done different to just let them know. The job was done professionally and Jake was always responsive with any questions that I text him.

I paid about $40 extra for the freon, but I knew it in advance. They even found out where the leak was, but it was in some place where we can't fix it.
