About us

Climate Design Systems, originally founded in 1946 under the name of Haverhill Sheet Metal, is a full-service heating, air conditioning and indoor air quality contractor. We are locally owned and managed by some of the most experienced HVAC specialists in the Northeast. Climate Design Systems is a division of Merrimack Valley Corp., a recognized leader in heating, air conditioning and mechanical contracting in the Northeast. Both companies share a 24,000 square foot facility located in Methuen and serve the Merrimack Valley, Southern New Hampshire and Greater Boston regions. We always take the time to educate our clients on guidelines, new and old, that need to be followed. As a green company, we are concerned with preserving our environment and inform our clients of local and federal funding available when they install systems that are energy efficient. Our Design Build Division always takes into consideration rebates from local utilities when designing mechanical systems. All of our engineers and technicians are fully certified and trained. We have a staff of 150+ employees and maintain a fleet of 75 digitally-dispatched service vehicles equipped with the parts needed for a majority of repairs. Our staff keeps up with the latest in heating and air conditioning technology. We live in a wonderful place, but New England's weather can be tough. We know how to keep your heating or cooling system operating at peak efficiency in this harsh climate. We offer a range of service plans to meet your needs. We're the experts for green heating, cooling and air purification technologies. Turn to us for cost-saving and environmentally friendly ways to heat or cool your home -- and for professional, qualified technicians. We are on-call for emergencies 24-hours-a-day, 7-days-a-week.

They rescheduled multiple times and when they finally showed up, what they replaced did not fix the problem. They would have known that if they performed a simple system test before leaving. Next repair visit involved bringing the wrong part. I was very frustrated with them. It must have taken a dozen calls and a half dozen appointments to get the system fixed.

The system was installed by Grant Burner Services in 2013 who was acquired by Climate Design Systems. After the acquisition a letter was sent to customers by CDS and stating they would now be providing the same exceptional service as we were used to. I did not experience this. The day before Thanksgiving the boiler started continuously trying to restart. CDS would not dispatch a technician until the morning after Thanksgiving. With the help of the Viessmann support team it was determined the Control board needed replaced. Although this part was immediately available and orderable in Boston for less than $500 (I know this because I called several supply houses and informed the CDS technician before he left that morning) CDS would not provide a quote or make any order until the following Monday so it was Tuesday before they could come back and replace the board. The technician failed to capture the settings before replacing the board and did not know how to program the new board. Fortunately I wrote down the settings the night before so I had to program the boiler. I rebooted the system and it worked. Total time without heat and hot water: 1 week. CDS might be ok servicing a system they installed but the perceived attitude is they claim no ownership of the systems installed by their acquisition. If someone has a Viessmann system installed by GBS then I recommend they find a company who sells and services Viessmann as CDS does not have the experience to efficiently work on these systems.

They called but they were over an hour after my appointment time and that was not cool. I smelled booze on the guy's dress. I had an attic pulled down and that's where my AC is located. He didn't replace the energy saving box that helps seal off the attic. When he was leaving, he managed to walk off one of the shoe protectors. He looked at it as he was leaving and he sort of left. I would use them for my oil burner but not for the AC tune-up.

Response from Climate Design Systems
"In response to [member's name removed]review. I do show services performed in October of 2014 but there was no charge. I do see that there was an installation of a system in 2009 and an evaporator coil needed to be replaced in July 2014. Please feel free to contact me to discuss as I see no service since October of 2104. Please ask for Mary Tarpy, Branch Manager."

When they installed the boiler they cleaned up everything well and completed the work when promised. Ever since, they have come out every year to clean the unit and maintain it. The only thing that could have been done better was on the most recent visit, he needed to come back as he had forgotten his tools and he came in without us being there or calling. Their communication regarding the boiler is good and they call to remind you about the cleanings and they mail communication regarding the service agreement. I would recommend their services to anyone.

Technician STEVEN VOTTA arrived at the arranged time - with a nice smile! He was very pleasant and professional during the entire time, and freely offered information to me about my heating system. He provided a thorough check of my furnace and tested it as well. At the end of the approx. 45 min service he went over the results, indicating potential problems - but telling me they were unlikely events/needs of replacement in the near future - and went over all the and quot;numbersand quot;/results he came up with by doing the check-up. This company always provides only the best service at a reasonable price. It's too bad they have to come all the way to Lynn from Methuen to help me out, but at least Steven is from a local town so I don't feel too bad using their service. They are great!

The week of New Year's 2013 our furnace was dying. Needless to day being in the Northeast in January is pretty cold. We could smell something burning. We shut off the furnace and started making calls. Climate Design was able to get right out to inspect the furnace. They were able to put our fears to rest about the burning smell we were getting. They were able to get our heat working enough to keep the house warm until the new furnace could be installed.
The new furnace was installed in a few days (once the finances were worked out) and we spent the rest of the winter comfy and cozy.
Since they were very professional, courteous and quick we are bringing them back in this week for an estimate to replace our central air unit.
