Jonathan R Ferriott LLC

Jonathan Ferriott is a Westinghouse dealer, but he is not licensed and he is not competent. At the time that we hired him, we were unaware that he was not licensed. He indicated he was, he had it on his business card, and he was listed on the Westinghouse web site as an authorized dealer, so we believed him. Within 20 minutes of completing the install, one of the new furnaces stopped working, and it took him 3 return trips to get it working again. Then, within a couple of months, we had another problem. This time, we couldn't get him to come back. He kept making appointments with us, but failed to show up for any of them. By the time we gave up and contacted another Westinghouse dealer to help us, we found out that Ferriott wasn't licensed and the installation was extremely shoddy. He is so incompetent, he irreparably damaged the equipment during the install. We attempted to get "Westinghouse" to assist us, but we could not get anybody to help. Westinghouse is a brand manufactured by Nordyne, and Nordyne won't take any responsibility even though they advertised Ferriott as an authorized dealer on their web site. Westinghouse sales in the Southeast are managed exclusively by N.B. Handy, but N.B. Handy won't take any responsibility either, even though they are continuing to sell Ferriott equipment. We notified them well over a year ago that Ferriott isn't licensed or competent, but they are still selling him Westinghouse equipment as recently as 6/3/2011. Ferriott is not licensed in either North Carolina or South Carolina. He sometimes tells people that he is a Mechanical Contractor, but he doesn't have that license either. In addition, his company name (Jonathan R Ferriott LLC) is not a real LLC. I reported Ferriott to the North Carolina State Board of Examiners of Plumbing, Heating, & Fire Sprinkler Contractors. If you are aware of any HVAC work that Ferriott has done or is in the process of completing, please notify the state board.
