Not long after having Lakewood Furnace install a new furnace in our home, we then had them add/install a new AC unit. Once again, they were prompt, efficient, and addressed all of our questions and concerns. We place our trust In Lakewood Furnace and hope to be life long customers. Thanks again Joe....and please let the other guys know how much we appreciated their great work.

From the initial meeting with the owner/Joe, who had promptly responded to our home, he then provided us with our options/pricing/etc.. First thing the following morning, members of Lakewood Furnace arrived, & by the end of the day, had completed the removal & replacement of our old furnace. They were all very knowledgeable, professional, & thorough. The end result of their work, & even the clean-up, was exceptional. We were very satisfied & just wanted to say Thanks to all of you!

After 2 hours of failed attempts to run and replace a severed wire using the existing path, the solution was to run through the laundry chute. Though I was sympathetic and appreciated the attempts, the end result in hour 3 was an exposed wire that was then shut and frayed by chute door. After expressing my concerns as part of an uncomfortable conversation regarding what I saw, the wire was ultimately put though the wall and chute. An expensive fix.

Great! Frank came out and had the unit fixed (blown capacitor) within minutes. Frank says it’s drawing high amps. Not a good thing. I’m going to contact them soon for a quote on a replacement of this really old unit. Thanks a ton, Lakewood!

I had them come to do a routine furnace check up. I was told that the filter and feed tube in my humidifier connected to the furnace needed replaced and they would order parts and get back to me. I had to contact them to follow up and was told I should just go to Home Depot to get the parts because it would be cheaper. I went to Home Depot and of course they didn't have the parts. I called back and was told they couldn't find the one part, it was discontinued or something, and they would look and call me back. I called back twice to check on it and was told they would keep looking and let me know. Never called back. I still don't have the parts and have no idea what to do.

Service Provider Response

The part is question was an inducer motor. When we were there on the first visit we were unable to determine whether it was this part or with these symptoms could could have been one or a combination of parts that were failing. Everything was working during the first visit. I should point out too that we worked hard to get this part under warranty even though it was nearly 2 months out of warranty. We could have charged the manufacturers suggested retail price which would have been a little more than $1000.00. I would think as a result of all of this we are worthy of more than a overall rating of C.

In the middle of one of the hottest days of the summer, our AC broke. Apparently, so did everyone else's in Cleveland. These guys still managed to get us in, provide good service and do good work. They didn't try to upsell us or exaggerate the problem. They just did good work. Kudos! Good service is hard to come by so we are very glad to hire these guys again!

Had two workers, Brian and Jared. They worked extremely well together to replace the furnace and air conditioner with a new carrier system. Once installed, they showed me what I needed to do to keep the system going OK. How to replace the blower filter and the april air filter. Once the work was completed they cleaned up after themselves. No garbage left behind and also cleaned their pathway extremely well. Laid down mats to protect flooring.

I had been out of town and I came back and it was 59° in here. I called them up and within an hour they were here. They diagnosed it and had the part and fixed it. That is another big plus. If you have a problem, they come, as soon as possible. I was kind of surprised how quickly they could come, but there is more than one person that works for that company, so they usually have someone available. If I'm calling someone in an emergency situation, I'm not real good about waiting.
