Pete was punctual and professional. He showed us what was making our central air unit not function, made some adjustments, ran some diagnostics and offered to come back if we needed him to. We will definitely use Freedom again.
Description of Work: Our central air unit had stopped running a few days earlier and we had our regular HVAC service provider come out to take a look at it. Upon inspection and trial to get the unit running, they informed us to have it replaced. A quote was given, and we called Freedom to get a second opinion and quote. Pete arrived on time and ready to go. He did a quick diagnostic check of all components and discovered that the unit was fine, a little low on coolant, but fine. The previous technician (not Freedom) had failed to clean out the drip pan therefore not allowing the unit to function properly. Pete walked me through what to look for and assured me that day, and with a courteous follow up call the next day that the unit should be fine. And it is. I think we've found a new HVAC service provider.

The appointment was booked with ease. The service man arrived on time. I had prepaid $49 for an air conditioner check and tune up. He cleaned the very dirty air conditioner coils and reviewed maintenance needs of our AC system, which I appreciated. He showed us a part that he said needed replacement--the part would be around $240 but he had one on his truck. At that time, he said everything else, including the refrigerant, checked out fine. After the replacement of the part, he said that the refrigerant was low and we needed more. The final bill was $414 (in addition to the prepaid amount). Because I am not an HVAC specialist, I have no way of knowing if we really needed replacement of the part or a top up of the refrigerant. However, what appeared to be a good deal on Angie's List turned out to be a very expensive endeavor. In retrospect, I should have had him do only the tune up and gotten another estimate on the replacement of the part and need for more refrigerant. In the future, I will get recommendations from the neighbors for HVAC service.

Hi there, we would first like to thank you by giving us a chance to come out and service your system. In any event, when we do any repairs on the system we do need an authorized signature in order to do the actual repairs that are needed, the price in which is always discussed then. The reason why we do that is to make sure the customer is aware of what the pricing will be before we start and finish. Once finished there's a job completed signature that is required in order to confirm that the job was done. We encourage our customers that if they are uncomfortable with the price to shop around and compare what you are getting with prices quoted. We here at Freedom will never oversell or push for a sale because we'd rather keep our customers for life, at times it can be jarring to see the cost of maintaining and repairing the systems due to the fact that many of us rarely even see or think about the system until something goes wrong with it. We absolutely appreciate you letting us do the proper repairs as needed, and we truly thank you for the review.

The technician arrived on time and got to work. All services listed on the deal page was performed and the technician was very professional and informative. He recommended changing the dual capacitor of my AC and gave me a quote for $216 plus a 10% discount. When I looked up online the capacitor part costs anywhere from $7 to $30 which means their total cost was exorbitant, so I turned down getting it replaced.

Service rep advised that heating needed to be replaced I took old coil to a heating and cooling supply and they disagreed . I did buy 2 other coils for another property I own and from watching service tech install coil was able to replace heating coil in GFA that actually needed it. This is an up sale. Not sure of exact date.

Willie initially performed a diagnostics and let us know that our AC unit needed to be replaced. He did not insist but we were keen on replacing our 17 year old ac unit. Rick showed up on time and installed the unit and matching coil with ease. He took care not to scratch our floors or walls. Hauled away our old ac unit with no extra charges.

He was able to do everything he could do to fix our issue with the A/C condenser not turning on, but little did we know that they previous homeowner when asked to upgrade the electrical panel did so but didn't reconnect the A/C condenser to the new panel. I thought the work was great for the value and he was very informative for me as a new homeowner on how to maintain my system. Much appreciated.
