I just used them because they had emergency hours. They were really the only ones who were interested in coming out. They did not come right out but they definitely came the next day. I was real happy with the service, I don't think they could improve on anything. He was here, probably, 45 minutes at the most. It went out on a Sunday and they came right away early Monday morning. I was just real happy that they made it out when they said they would. Simply from the fact that it was a very old furnace and they got it working again, I thought it was very well worth the money. It was still working and worked the entire winter. They were very professional. I am considering using them because we are considering getting that furnace replaced.
"Thank you for the kind words [member name removed]!! Shane"
- fair price
- listened to what I wanted and accomodated that
- went over various options appropriate for the system I needed and wanted, and let me pick which I wanted (no hard sells)
- did full Manual J calculations; did not just use a rule of thumb to size, or just put the same size back in with no further thought
- answered all my questions (and I had a lot), and answered them cheerfully
- communicated very well; always kept me informed
- always came exactly when they said they would
- the installation crew was extremely hardworking, conscientious, professional, and were also willing to answer all the questions I had while the furnace and A/C were going in
- everything was left very clean
I invited three contractors to review my needs, make recommendations and offer a proposal for work. With the other two contractors, they came in looked at the unit (and only looked at it) and recommended an entirely new unit at Thousands of $$$$$ cost. Neither of them agreed on the same solution.
Shane determined that our unit was operating at peak efficiency but that it was marginally "undersized" for the heat load placed on the cooling unit. (south facing side, vaulted ceilings in about 2/3 of the house, lower value windows. He suggested we do an assessment that is partially paid for by the local electric company, and increase the number of air ducts in the house.
Our attempt is to squeeze as much performance out as we can BEFORE considering buying a larger unit. Even if a larger unit is needed, we would need to add more duct work to distribute the increase air flow from a new unit. Shane was very professional and used a number of tools to measure the performance of the A/C unit in our 10 year old house.
Shane's prices were competitive but his strategy of making minor fixes (investments) may very well help us avoid paying for an entire new system to keep us cool during those 95-plus degree high temperatures. His approach was based on technology and took the time to explain the principals behind the issues and his recommendations.
While his pricing was competitve, he is helping us to keep from investing in a whole new system saving us a great deal of money. Great job, Shane.
replacing the HVAC system in my home I engaged several contractors and
received bids from each of them. Shane was the only one that actually
measured my home and made a recommendation based on actual needs of my
home. Other contractors tried to throw a over-sized unit in my home
which I later learned may result in very inefficient operation.
Shane has easily been the best contractor I have worked with in St. Louis.
He is easy to work with and communicate with. He's dependable, he does
what he says and he's very fair. He'll explain the situation in a very
straight forward and easy to understand manner.
After initial installation of my new HVAC unit several years ago Shane returned to
replace the motor on my outdoor A/C unit due to rain run off from my
roof wearing the fan motor out. Most recently Shane returned to
troubleshoot the furnace motor that stopped running. Although the motor
had recently expired from warranty Shane still provided a very
reasonable solution to get things running again.
I can't recommend Shane enough and wish more contractors were as easy to deal with as he is.
