Settled on a smaller unit over the phone but was then encouraged to bump up in size. They were unable to install new valve so had to stick with older style. Overall it went well with minor hiccups. Return call to set appointment came a day later than expected due to their being busy
Response from AWE Air Water Energy

"Thank you so much for your review. We are so happy to hear that everything went well. Sizing of your humidifier is so important and we always verify the square footage of your home and base our recommendations off of Aprilaire's specifications. We are very sorry if we didn't meet your expectations in responsiveness. We received the email on 11/28 and responded on the same day so maybe there was a delay from Angie's List. We will certainly look into that. However, thank you for allowing us to provide you with indoor comfort and for being our Client!"

The installation went well. The price was advertised as $349 but the technician charged me an additional $65 to install a valve on my hot water line. The deal said that it includes al necessary hardware to do the job, but he told me this valve was required by city code an costs more.
Response from AWE Air Water Energy

"Thank you so much for your review! We are so happy to hear that your installation went well. We apologize if you feel that there was any misunderstanding in the ad. We advised in fine print that any additional part would not be covered. If you needed the valve in order to be up to Illinois plumbing code, that is a part and is chargeable and was advised upon the initial phone call. However, we would've had you sign a waiver stating that you didn't want the valve. We certainly don't ever want our clients thinking that we are hiding anything from them so we apologize tat you do. However, we promise to uphold all promises we make as our client's are our GREATEST asset! Thank you so much for choosing us and for being our Valued Client!!"

The installation itself was done correctly. But there was an issue with the total price. The deal indicated $349 for installation that included all materials and labor. They informed me that there will be another $64 for another part (a valve) which is not part of the included material or labor as it supposedly is a part and not material. I decided to go with the installation as we needed to get a humidifier either way. There was also an issue with the installation date where they had to move it another 2 weeks than the original scheduled date.

Purchased an Angie's list deal for humidifier installation of a humidifier. In the add it states that all plumbing, electrical and ducting is included. When I scheduled the install all of the sudden there is a $65.00 up charge for a valve they need to install to make it up to code. If they installed it the way it was advertised it wouldn't meet code. They would be happy to install it out of code.To me any company that would advertise work that does not meet code and offers to do work that does not meet code is terrible. Obvious bait and switch tactic to drive up the price. DO THE WORK YOU PROMISED IN YOUR AD!! Very Disappointed.
Response from AWE Air Water Energy

"Thank you very much for your feedback. We are very sorry you feel this way. We understand that you had a very detailed conversation with one of our Client Care Specialists last night. It was explained to you completely. The ad is not hiding anything and is very clear. It is $65 to have your unit brought up to Illinois Plumbing Code. It is also an additional charge to upgrade from the unit that is advertised. We advised you of all of this upon the very first phone call and it was agreed upon. We also advised that, if you didn't want the valve, you would need to sign a waiver stating as such, signing off that you agreed to have the installation done without the correct valve that is required. Everything was agreed upon and explained very clearly. All labor and materials for an installation of an Aprilaire 500M is included. This is a part that is recommended for Illinois Plumbing Code. We certainly feel bad for the poor rating and if there was a misunderstanding in reading our ad. We are a quality company that doesn't hide anything from our clients. As you experienced, we were upfront and honest and, if this was not something that you felt was honest, then we certainly wouldn't do the work, yet it was agreed upon. We didn't stay in business for 30 years due to a bait and switch. We have stayed in business for 30 years because we are honest and do right by our clients. Again, we thank you for your feedback and certainly apologize that you feel the way you do."

Making the appointment was very easy, they arrived as scheduled both times, Spring & Fall, and conducted their work in a very honest and professional manner. In the past I have had a company tell me I needed a new furnace and also a new humidifier. It has been three years since then, and I still have the same furnace and humidifier. AWE is very honest and professional, and both their office staff as well as their service personnel are very courteous and professional. I will continue to use them for all of my HVAC needs!

"Thank you SO much for the WONDERFUL review!! We are so happy to hear that you are completely satisfied with our company! We will continue to meet, if not exceed, your expectations. The best part for us to hear is the word honest. That is a word that is hard to come by these days and we pride ourselves that we ARE an honest company.

So if I would asked to rate AWE Air Water & Energy's services in one line, I would say, please find someone who is more reliable, professional and having better business ethics, and customer service oriented. This is what happened, after I found AWE on Angie's List as "A" rated company with some good fancy reviews, that is probably, because other customers who didn't had similar experience as mine with AWE didn't write a review, thinking more waste of time, which does makes sense to me as well, but at-least I would like others to be aware about this company and don't get to suffer what I just experienced over the weekend. Though I have home warranty but forced to find an outside vendor as there wasn't any of their in-network vendors were available same day, When I called AWE to make an appointment, thought I am lucky to get the same day appointment with very reasonable service charges, also I explained the situation about my home warranty and agreed to pay as soon as job is done, in-turn it will be my responsibility to claim with home warranty based on proof of payment from AWE Air Water & Energy. That's how I can illustrate appointment call, with AWE Air Water & Cooling. • Operator at AWE confirming the appointment time between 02:00 to 04:00 PM CST on 09/23/2017, though they want visiting charges to be put on-hold on my credit card, unfortunately during the time of call I didn't had my credit card details as I wasn’t at my house, so we agreed to pay as soon as their technician arrives before starting the work. • While I was awaiting for someone to come over I got a call from AWE's technician named Mark, around 03:55 PM CST, asking me if I can wait a little longer as his previous call took more than expected time, without having any choice I had to say ok, and "now here is the surprise" next thing he asked me to pay $129.00 instead $89.00, when I questioned why, and the answer was "now since the time is going to be past 04:00 PM CST which is out-off regular working hours, though he had no regret or courtesy of being late instead he was trying to blackmail me, and made very clear that he can come over only if I accept to pay him $129.00, where I left with no choice and I had to agree to his condition. • But that wasn't the only surprise, I got another call from the same technician within next 10 mins, where he cancelled the appointment stating, he has other things to take and wouldn't be able come over, there wasn't anything left for me say and I hung-up the phone. And now since it was end of the day on a Saturday where other companies I could have possibly contacted were also closed for the day with having almost next to impossible to find someone next day being Sunday, unless I am willing to pay high premium, for those companies who work on Sundays. UPDATE 9-27-17 A response to AWE’s comments provided on my review from 09/25/2017. I would like to clarify few things. So AWE mentioned that I was suppose to call back with credit card detail to secure the payment method this is just they are trying to hide their mistake by providing an excuse and the fact is “they agreed to collect service charges during the visit and the condition was I had pay first before they start the work”. Other thing which was mentioned, AWE’s team member tried to reach me out for the payment prior to service visit is another false statement and it’s not hard to prove this as well, with the technology we have available now a days. What is mentioned by AWE’s team member make me strongly feel that company if has the policy to ensure payment method is in place, prior making the service appointment, even if that is the case why did they scheduled the appointment, not just this, I have a audio recording of the call with one of the AWE team member which can prove what I mentioned in original review and in this response is true to every word and I feel really sorry for AWE team members, at first they were incompetent, unprofessional, with no business ethics, instead trying to fix what they did wrong and more importantly making sure this shouldn’t be repeated, but still busy making false statements to mislead other customers and hide their mistakes.
Response from AWE Air Water Energy

"Sir, we understand your frustration. However, we have policies and procedures in place that our team followed. You advised that you would call us back with a credit and you did not do so. Our Client care Specialist even called you again for it....to no avail. There are many variables to this situation that can't and won't get into it on Angie's List. We would appreciate you calling one of our Managers to speak further about this, since that hasn't been done yet. Thank you for your feedback!"

I replaced the air filter and water filter myself and save more than $90. I was forced to renew the maintenance contract..
Response from AWE Air Water Energy

"Thank you very much for your feedback. We have been going back and forth for a year about the unit that you purchased from us and we thought that your concern had been resolved. However, it seems that it isn't. You Googled the cost of an install. For the amount of work that we did and fixed from the other company you had out who installed your air conditioner, plus the amount of free items that you received, we were VERY fair with our pricing. As for the warranty, that was all approved by you as that is how we do business. EVERY manufacturer requires annual maintenance that is NOT part of a warranty. It's like the oil changes on your vehicles....always chargeable. We are honoring n additional 9 years onto a labor warranty if you stay on our MVP And we make sure you never miss a visit. We also realize that there is a little confusion here. Our water pads are not $59.00. We did not charge you $59.00 for a water pad for your humidifier. Our water pads are $14.00 on the MVP. The $59.00 was for a pad and a cleaning. In business, there is a cost to do business. There is overhead to have a Client Care Specialist answer your call, the building, the lights, the insurance, the tech, the vehicle, etc.....If you find the exact manufacturer's filter, please, be sure that you get it from that manufacturer because they make them to fit their equipment. A lot of the ones sold at local stores are NOT the correct size and cause leaking. However, we will always be here to help in that too! If there is anything else that we may be able to clear up for you, please don't hesitate to call us. 630-AWESOME! That's 630-293-7663. Thank you for your feedback and for being our Valued Client!"

They charged too much. I'm definitely going to be using them again because I have them scheduled to come out in October to assess my furnace. I have a contract with them.
Response from AWE Air Water Energy

"Thank you very much for your feedback. We are happy that you were very honest with your grading. However, not thrilled about the F in price. We know that we are very competitive in price as we continue to research costs in the industry. We charge flat rate prices and that means that whatever you are quoted, is what you will be paying. No hidden costs. No hidden fees. Upfront and honest pricing. We see that a similar situation happened back in May 2017 when you posted the same rating on a different review site and we discounted your repairs $50.00. It seems that your units are from 2004 and 2005 and that you have payed quite a bit in repairs. We will ALWAYS give you an option of repair versus replacement and, being of the age they are, the repairs are adding up, that's why it has been so costly to you. However, it's a GREAT thing that you are on our Member Value Plan so that you are saving 20% each visit that we are called out to your home for service, and getting the diagnostic fee waived when you decided to go with the repair. We are so grateful that you are our client and we THANK YOU for continuing to trust us in your home.....since 2002 or before! THANK YOU for your continued support! We are here for every possible situation that arises with your indoor comfort and we are so grateful that you continue to be happy with our services. THANK YOU for being our Valued Client!"

The team at AWE was outstanding. The sales team, customer service, and installation group was stellar. We do our homework on home purchases, and the team at AWE actually welcomed the questions and provided thoughtful and thorough responses. Even during the install, they made it a point to let us know what was going on and why.
