Ty spent 2 hours to check and clean the furnace, heat-exchanger and external heat-pump units in detail. He wrote detail description in the service order indicating the measured readings are within the spec'ed ranges. He also hand-feel air-flows from each room's register outlets. I am glad that I have signed up the three year maintenance option and installed the heat-pump, furnace, electronic air cleaner and multi-zone controller by Randy from American Contracting Inc in 8/2015.

Randy and his guys are absolutely great. Very clean work, professional and on time. I also used them to replace a 35 year old furnace at my Mom's place. I would highly recommend them if quality and satisfaction are important to you.

The contractor was nice enough to return my call and we discussed the problem with my windows. I felt comfortable to ask him to come to my house to give me a quote for the work. However, the contractor only works during weekdays and regular business hours. I needed someone to come on the weekend to see the problem during daylight hours. So the contractor did not do any work for me.

They came out and there was a problem with my furnace. They got it squared away with no troubles. The technician who came out was very nice and was very good at what he did. He explained what he had done and took care of business. They also showed up on time. I think my wife also set them up, in our books, to have them periodically do longer term maintenance.

We had them service a furnace. One technician came out. The first time they came out it was for 30 minutes and the 2nd time they came for about 45 minutes. They had to get a part and that was why they came back the second time. It seems to me that they didn't know what they were doing for my furnace. They should have brought the part that I needed in the first place, instead of having to come back a 2nd time.

It was a really good service. I had them repair come furnace pipes under the house. They were here for one full day and one technician came out to do this. This was the first time I have used them. They were recommended to me by my nephew and he told me that they would do a great job and they did.

Their work was great! He fixed my air conditioner. Just one technician came out to do that work and it took him about a couple of hours. He did have to leave to go get a part and he let me know that price ahead of time. He was efficient and he got the fix done quickly. He also gave me some recommendations in how to make the AC run longer. I heard about this company from Angie's List and this was the first time that I had used them.

We have used American Contracting before but because this was a large job, I got four bids. Randy was the second lowest. He was also by far the most thorough. For example he was the only bidder who went down into the crawl space to check the ducts. He found one place where two pieces had separated and could not just be pushed back in place. Not coincidentally, this sparation lead to the kitchen/family room which I had always considered a cold spot. He also pointed out what venting had to be replaced because it was no longer to code. Some other bidders pointed out one place but Randy spotted more. The day of the installation, Randy and crew showed up on time. They spent the time to explain things, even walking my wife and I through setting up the WI-fi thermostat and explaining all the features. They also not only made us aware of all available rebates (which were substantial) but filled out all paperwork, and sent to us for signature and sending out. We are both thrilled with the new furnace. The cold spot is gone, and it runs quieter than the older one. I will continue to use American Contracting and I recommend them to anyone who understands the difference between value vs the absolute lowest price.

They are very competent. They are very efficient with their time and I highly recommend them. In terms of price, I had one other company years ago to do it and their price was very bad. They are very personable. A person comes, actually have both, the owner comes to double check twice sometimes and the person that they send out is very friendly and nice. I would very much use them again in the future.
Description of Work
I used American Contracting Inc. to do a lot of different things. The last time they came out, they redid dryer vent for me and repaired the attic fan. I always had him come and do air-conditioning, general clean up and service the furnace and air conditioner.

Our furnace was not working. My husband tried fixing it. A week later with no heat, he finally agreed he did not know what was wrong. So I looked on Angie's List and there American Contracting, Inc kinda jumped out at me. I read they had good experiences from other consumers so I gave them a call. In less than 3 hours from my call, Kayla had dispacted Ty to come to our home. He was very respectful and went right to work. He let me know what the problem was, and let me know I had the option for him to go and get the part and fix it. He went and got the part needed, came back and whalaaa, the furnace was up and working again!! I would definitely use this company again. Very good all around. Thank you so much American Contracting, Inc. My furnace is still working and we are warm :)

It was great.. All the workers were professional, did great work. They were fast. They value quality work. Randy worked with us to determine where to place the outside AC unit and made our choice work. We are very satisfied with the equipment and their work.. I chose not to share the cost. We chose this company based on a recommendation from a neighbor and then researched the American Standard brand they install.

Our furnace wasn't working. Called the company that I had paid a service contract with - they never returned my call. Called American Contracting since they were in the neighborhood. Within 2 hours they were at the house, diagnosed the issue (failed gas valve), then came back with a new part and installed it. Probably took about 3 hours in total. They were very professional and courteous. Also let me know that the fan was starting to make some noise, that it may get noisy in the house signifying it would need to be replaced. I will have them provide the annual service for my furnace and AC units.
Description of Work
Replaced gas valve on furnace. Performed testing before diagnosing that it was the gas valve. Tested new valve after installation.

They did a great work. The technician was talkative and showed me exactly what he did. He also told me as to what needed to be done and gave me the choice of the best furnace. He was knowledgeable and approachable as well. The price charged was fine, as I didn’t compare it with any other company. He has also ordered some air filters for me.

After getting a quote from another company for over $12,000, we contacted Randy at American Contracting. He was very thorough. He took the time to completely explain what he wanted to do and why. All work was done on time and in a professional manner. A few days later, we did have a problem with one of the inside upstairs units. Randy and his partner were here in a few hours, tracked down the problem, and fixed it the same day. I also contacted the company in the winter with what I thought might be a problem. Not only was someone there on a Saturday, but Randy returned my call in a few minutes. What I thought was a problem with the outside unit steaming and water coming out was simply part of the units deicing process. They also took the lead in getting us a $800 rebate on the system. The system does everything promised; we love it. I would recommend Randy and American Contracting to anyone. Such customer service is hard to find these days.
Description of Work
A complete duct-less heat pump system was installed in our townhouse. There are two outside units and three inside units to this system. The job was completely done by American Contracting, including electrical. This system provides both heat and air conditioning.

American Contracting has performed work at 2 different homes that my wife and I own. They do high quality work and guarantee the work they do. I HIGHLY recommend them to anyone. They will probably not be the low cost provider of their service. They are after clients who appreciate the attention to detail they provide and are willing to pay a little bit more for quality work they preform.

You will not find a more honest, dependable, knowledgeable HVAC contractor in the Portland Metro Area than Randy Krueger of ACED. I had four estimates done for the work, and Randy's, while not the cheapest (or most expensive), was by far the most thorough and detailed. He also provided several different estimates for different options. He found problems at the site visit that no other contractor noticed, and repaired them at no extra charge. He stayed with my job until it was finished (two days), not juggling it with other jobs. He came back afterward to show my wife and I how the unit ran and how to clean the air filter. Randy's wife Kayla, the business manager, followed up with all requests and completed our tax credit paperwork for us. Randy and Kayla were a pleasure to work with, and I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of HVAC service.
Description of Work
Installed a new American Standard 92.5% efficiency, two-stage, variable speed 80K BTU gas furnace, with an AprilAir electronic air filter, into our single-family home. Also repaired duct work around furnace.
