I signed up for an advertised special to replace a water heater for $1,200. When I called to schedule service I was told that because I had a power vent, the cost would be $2,400. Really??? Double the cost for an electric motor that sits on top of the water heater? I cancelled the appointment but it took at least a week for my credit card to be credited for a refund. BGE Home came out the same day and did the job for $800 less. As far as I am concerned, Silvia heating is a "bait and switch" operation. Stay away from them. This was my second experience with Angie's list. I'm not impressed and my trust for Angie's List services and the contractors they recommend is pretty low at this point. Not impressed!

We are sorry to hear that you had a bad experience with our company. Our Angie's List water heater deal did outline the qualifications for the coupon purchase which included that it was for a 50 Gallon, Gas, Flue-Vented System only. We do our best to be as accommodating as possible with all of our customers. The credit card refund would not have come from our company directly. The purchase was made through Angie's List and the refund was given by Angie's List. If you would like to discuss your concerns with one of our customer service representatives, please call our office at 410-760-2121. Best Regards, The Sila Team

Fantastic. From the moment I met John Trancucci to the quote process to the installation, everything went like clockwork. This is a GREAT company to work with; they are responsive, punctual, clean, and the quality of their work is second-to-none. I would refer them to friends/family without hesitation.

buyer beware. they advertised water heater with a ten year guarantee. the actual water heater comes with a six year guarantee, and sila buys an additional four year guarantee. this means the water heater is not as well insulated as a heater built to last with a ten year guarantee. I could live with this, however, after the installation, i had low water pressure in one faucet and the hot and cold water were reversed in the kitchen faucet, which stopped working completely w/i a day. they promised to send a plumber; 1/2 hr. before scheduled visit they advised me no one would come as my original heater was installed incorrectly and the problem was my fault. after contesting this falsehood, they sent a service manager who rearranged the hot and cold water pipes at the water heater site. there was no water at all flowing from the kitchen sink and pressure was still low on the hot water side of the lavatory sink. I was advised a plumber would call me Monday to fix the problem with the faucets. No call. I called the office and was told they had no plumber to service my area and that my faucets were old. another falsehood. I am now waiting for the customer service rep to speak with someone else and respond to the problem. I really didn't expect this deceptive service and no price is worth being accused of problems I didn't cause and being without water in the kitchen faucet for three days.

Dear Angie's List Member, We apologize that you did not have a pleasant experience with us. When our technician arrived to do the water heater, he was told that there was already low pressure to the home, the dishwasher never produced hot water and the shower was only luke warm. The house is incorrectly piped and just replacing the water heater would not fix underlying piping issues. Our technician let the customer know that we could get our plumber out there to address the other issues with their plumbing for additional charges but the customer declined. Thanks Sila Heating and Air Conditioning

I was thoroughly unhappy with the job. He did not resolve the issues and I feel I wasted my money. They did not clean the flue exhaust or the burner tubs. He said he would bleed my radiators and he could charge me more because it was not included in the deal and I stated it actually is included. When I called the company to talk about my dissatisfaction, they pleaded ignorance.

GREAT! OUTSTANDING ! While here Dave diagnosed a broken sump pump. After going to get a few pieces of hardware he replaced our pump with a new one . He then redirected the drain lines outdoors. Now he arrived at 8am to do a 1 hour job and spent 11 hours at our home. WOULD I RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY AGAIN? YOU BETTER BELIEVE IT !

Purchased a furnace check up and service. Technician was extremely professional and clean, gave a very nice overview of the current state of the furnace and what to keep an eye on. Would definitely use Sila for future work. Working with a very dated furnace, so an honest opinion vs. a sales pitch was refreshing.
