Good experience. Techs were friendly, on time, and appeared to perform a good job installing the equipment. Made every effort to use existing equipment(indoor air closet, relatively new programmable thermostat control) to keep cost down if existing equipment in good condition and expected to operate well for the long-term.
Description of Work: Replaced 14 yr old outdoor heat exchange unit, indoor heat exchange coil, outdoor electrical breaker, and all connecting tubing/hosing/wiring.

It's great. Perry has worked there forever and does a great job, and we request him every time. I think it's easy to schedule with them-- they're both flexible and punctual. Cost covers two trips (out of season). Our furnace is now 16 yrs old, and we've had no problems. Also, Perry always remembers to bring air filters so we never to worry about that.
Description of Work: Our furnace was serviced as part of biannual service. They call us, and we call back to schedule.

Job 1: Very good and persistent to fix the problem. JOB 2: WE GOT SEVERAL ESTIMATES. HE WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO FOLLOWED UP WITH TWO OR THREE PHONE CALLS. THAT'S MORE SALES AND SERVICES, BUT HE DID A GREAT JOB WITH THAT. THEY DID AN EXCELLENT JOB. THEY KEPT EVERYTHING CLEAN. THEY DID IT VERY QUICKLY.
Description of Work: Job 1: Blower motor shut down. JOB 2:IT WAS A NEW HEAT PUMP. THEY REMOVED OUT THE OLD AIR CONDITIONER AND REPLACED IT WITH THE HEAT PUMP.

Scott Appel was a pleasure to work with. He showed up on time and was reasonable to work with. He sold me the system that I wanted buy and did not try to up-sell or over-sell. The Air-Bear filter and humidifier were my requests. I plan to use them for service for this system as well.
Description of Work: Installed new 13 SEER American Standard Heat Pump, Auxillary Electric Furnace, Air Bear 600 Cartridge Filter & a Bypass Humidifier.

I did have to complain to get the service call charge taken off, but they were willing to do that. They came out several times to take care of the problem. I've found them more flexible than other companies as far as setting times. I did have to remind a worker to cover his shoes so as not to track in dirt, but he didn't mind.
Description of Work: Had warranty work done on heat pump they installed.

Technician was early. Received call 30-40 min. before arrival. He was polite and knowledgeable. Was able to diagnose the problem quickly. Completed the work in a reasonable amount of time. He did a very good job cleaning up the area around the furnace when the job was completed. Would hire this company again for future work.

Response from Appel Heating & Air Conditioning
PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT THE $20 IS THE COMPLETE REPAIR NOT JUST THE FUSE. THAT MEANS THE TIME IT TOOK FOR THE TECH TO GET THE FUSE, INSTALL IT AND TEST THE FURNACE AFTERWARDS. IF YOU LOOK AT IT FROM THAT WAY, THAT''S A PRETTY GOOD VALUE.

THE APPEL REPRESENTATIVE WAS INFORMATIVE AND RECOMMENDED A COMMERICIAL UNIT FOR A WET BASEMENT WHICH WAS DEVELOPING MOLD. WE NEEDED THE DEHUMIDIFIER QUICKLY, BUT THEY HAD JUST SOLD THEIR LAST ONE. HE ORDERED ONE FOR US AND DELIVERED IT SEVERAL DAYS LATER. ALSO, WE ALWAYS USE APPEL FOR ANNUAL AC AND FURNACE MAINTENANCE AND OTHER SERVICE CALLS. THEY ARE FRIENDLY AND EASY TO SCHEDULE WITH AND KEEP EVERYTHING RUNNING SMOOTHLY. WE WILL CONTINUE TO USE THEM IN THE FUTURE.

JAY CAME OUT BECAUSE MY PILOT LIGHT WOULD NOT LIGHT OR STAY LIT. HE INSPECTED THE FURNACE AND SHOWED ME THE HAIRLINE CRACKS IN THE AIR INTAKE, AND THEN ASKED A SALESMAN TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT. THE SALESMAN (NATE) CALLED ME ABOUT AN HOUR LATER TO SCHEDULE THE APPOINTMENT FOR FRIDAY. JAY WAS VERY HELPFUL AND WAS WILLING TO ANSWER MY QUESTIONS AS WELL AS TALK TO MY HUSBAND ON THE PHONE TO EXPLAIN WHY WE NEEDED A NEW FURNACE. JAY HAD LOTS OF SUGGESTIONS AND WAS VERY HELPFUL. THANK YOU!

KEN (OWNER) CAME OVER ON THE SAME DAY I CALLED HIM FOR AN ESTIMATE. HE SAID HE WAS IN BETWEEN SALES CALLS, BUT MADE IT OVER TO MY HOUSE FOR AN INSPECTION. HE WAS VERY THOROUGH IN EXPLAINING WHAT WOULD NEED TO BE DONE & WAS RECEPTIVE TO MY QUESTIONS. RON CAME OVER TO INSTALL THE UNIT. FROM THE START, I NOTICED THEY BROUGHT OVER THE WRONG BRAND OF HUMIDIFIER THAT I HAD AGREED UPON (A TOTALINE INSTEAD OF APRILAIRE). I WAS TOLD THAT THIS WAS THE SAME TYPE OF UNIT. NOT REALLY WHAT I WANTED TO HEAR. THE INSTALLATION SEEMED TO GO SMOOTHLY. I WAS IN AN ADJACENT ROOM & DID NOT NOTICE ANY ISSUES. WHEN FINISHED, THE UNIT RAN FOR 10 MINUTES WITHOUT ISSUE. RON LEFT & THINGS STARTED TO HAPPEN. THE JUNCTION ON THE COLD WATER INTAKE THAT HE TAPPED INTO STARTED LEAKING. WATER WAS LEAKING FROM THE INTAKE ONTO THE WATER HEATER & ALL OVER THE UNIT'S CONTROLS. LUCKILY I HEARD IT LEAKING. I CALLED THEM BACK & RON CAME BACK OVER & SECURED THE JUNCTION. TWO DAYS WITHOUT ISSUES NOW.
