Mark provided a fair estimate and was very knowledgeable about heating systems in older homes. He explained the entire process clearly. Installation was very efficient. A minor problem with the water pumping system was followed up on rapidly and resolved. Follow up calls were made to inquire about the system; a follow up "check up" visit late in the season was initiated by the company. Overall, this was a very efficient and satisfying process. The new system worked very well and saved us money during this long, cold winter.
Description of Work: Replaced old boiler and hot water heater with combined high efficiency boiler and "indirect fired" hot water heater. Installed new radiators (one new radiator and one "restored" radiator) and created one new heating zone. Installed new valves on two radiators.

The pump on our 49 year old boiler was making a lot of noise. We decided that it was time to replace the boiler and called Nimmer along with four other HVAC companies to get estimates for a zoned boiler and for an indirect fired hot water heater. Mark Nimmer arrived on time, looked carefully at the old system and put together a professional detailed estimate before leaving. Once we had decided on a Buderis boiler, we chose Nimmer because the price was reasonable (middle of three for contractors installing Buderis) and because we believed that the company would perform the work as agreed without surprises. We consulted with a knowledgeable professional to find out about Buderis and to look over the bids and help us decide. It took approximately 1.5 days to install the boiler and hot water heater. The installers arrived on time and were very professional. We were consulted with regard to placement of equipment and thermostats. They checked to insure the system was working, cleaned up after the work was done and took time to answer any questions. They also provided the forms and instructions for Focus on Energy rebates. We were pleased with the installation and service provided by Nimmer.
Description of Work: Nimmer removed old boiler and hot water heater and installed a Buderis high efficiency boiler and indirect fired hot water heater.

Called and spoke with Mark about various air cleaners and air purification systems. After describing the problem, he suggested going with the most economical, as it would take care of 99% of our problem. I appreciated this, as he didn't try to sell me more than I needed. Nimmer was slightly cheaper than other quotes I had received, and were extremely friendly and professional. The service tech, Brent, was very courteous and professional, and he was a pleasure to deal with. I will definitely contact them again.

Not only was Nimmer one of the lowers bids, but Mark was also extremely helpful in giving me advice in maintaining the heating ducts. He was also willing to work with me for a payment plan. His team was able to start right away and also able to accommodate my schedule. They all worked well together and were great with the clean-up.
Description of Work: I needed to add air conditioning to an older home with convection heat. Nimmer installed a high efficiency air conditioning unit and the necessary ductwork.

John is an excellent employee and he has also done furnace and A/C tune-ups for us. I also used an Angie's List coupon and he appreciated my positive input to Angie's List.
Description of Work: My husband called Nimmer on Saturday 2/9/08 to tell them that our furnace was making a "clicking" sound for a long time, even after the heat would come on. We never did lose our heat though. John, the service tech returned our call and gave the time he would arrive. When John arrived and checked it out, he said we needed a new module. He said that they would order it on the following Monday and that he would be back on Tuesday, 2/12/08. The office called on Monday and said he would be at our house on Tuesday at 7:30a.m. He called and said he had a "no heat" call and said he would run just a little late, either 8 or 8:30a.m. but first made sure that we still had heat. He arrived at 8:00 a.m. and promptly started the job. When he was finished he called me into the basement and explained the new module and how it would work, and because it was a new type, he taped a "trouble shooting" paper, supplied by the company, onto the furnace, and explained that to me also.

Nimmer did a great job tuning-up our furnaces in December and they indicated they would be prepared to replace an inducer assembly which sounded like it could fail within the near future. When the assembly did indeed fail on a frigid January Sunday, we called to request service. Twice. After over two hours of feeling our temperature drop, we finally concluded Nimmer went to the Packer game instead of listening to their emergency phone messages and we reluctantly called another company. Of course, about a half hour after the other company had called back and we'd authorized their service call, Nimmer finally called us, wondering whether our call had been answered. It grieves me that Nimmer did not follow through earlier. We paid way too much to the other company. A subsequent call to Nimmer for information about the cost of their replacement part was handled in a professional manner.
Description of Work: The company tuned up our furnaces in December and based on their assessment of a suspicious noise, prepared to replace an induce assembly in a subsequent call. When we made that emergency call on a Sunday, Nimmer didn't respond for nearly three hours - after we'd had to call another company.

It was a very smooth and positive experience. I called and left a message, the company got back to me within the hour and scheduled me for the afternoon. When I told them that I had my daughter's doctor appt. in the later part of the afternoon, they worked to get the technician to my house earlier. The technician was courteous and got right to business. I thought they were very fair with their pricing. I will be using them again in the future, if nothing else, to do the maintenance work on the furnace. Highly recommended.
Description of Work: The igniter was broken; the technician, John found the problem right away. He had to run out to buy a replacement which took a while but when he returned with the part it took almost no time for him to install it.

It was a great experience. I have used Seider in the past and they always seem to want me to get a new furnace so it was a nice change of pace to just have a hose needing replacement.
Description of Work: Have two furnaces which appeared to be leaking water. Called Nimmer and was put on the phone with Mark Nimmer to explain the situation. He explained to me what could be the problem over the phone but that he would need to look at it in person to confirm. He came over a few hours later and found a leak in both furnace hoses. He fixed the problem and was in and out in an hour.

I was very impressed with the owner of this company! He quickly got on the phone with me to assess whether they could do the work, and after carefully listening to the situation, he told me that he absolutely could send someone out to take care of it, but it would be very expensive, and really probably not necessary to have his team handle. I was so impressed with that kind of honesty ! We laughed that it would be tantamount to 'killing a mosquito with a sledgehammer!" He gave me some advice about how I could approach it on my own, and told me to call back if I encountered problems, and he would do what he could to help me. I am still working on getting that darn thing out - but I won't hesitate to call if I need more advice. And, the next time I need work done in HVAC, I will definitely call Nimmer. Of course, I will tell this story to my friends and co-workers as well.
Description of Work: I called the company looking to see if they could help me to remove an old kitchen exhaust fan that was (it seemed) permanently attached to my house's ductwork ! My electrician could not remove it without 'making a mess', and he suggested I call an HVAC contractor who is more familiar with ductwork.

I have a very old furnace (over 40 years old). Another company barely looked at my furnace, said they couldn't do anything "because they don't make the parts for these anymore," and proceeded to write up an order for a new and very expensive furnace. Kevin from Nimmer took the time to diagnosis the old furnace, and it turned out to be a simple fix. He was done in only 30 minutes and we had the furnace up and running! Kevin was very courteous and professional. He gave me advice and politely answered all my questions. I will definitely be calling Nimmer for any future furnace or AC issues. Thanks Kevin.
Description of Work: Furnace wouldn't start. Turned out it was just a problem with the pilot light.

Install: June,2007, today's Date: August 21, 2007. After a couple of months, everything is still working great. I checked 4 different companies out and went with Nimmer. I liked the personalized attention that this company gave us. The proposal was very complete and precise. He could answer every question I gave him. The day of installation went very smoothly. His installers were very nice and professional. They were very careful about not damaging anything in or around the house. The work was done in 1 day. It went well. There were no complications. Everyone knew what they were doing and did their job quickly and efficiently. They explained everything to me before they left as how to operate the furnace/air conditioner. They even had the rebates forms done and ready to be processed. It was a very good experience. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again. Very nice to work with.
Description of Work: Installed new high efficiency furnace, central air conditioner, thermostat control, Media air filter, reinstalled my own humidifier, cleaned unit and replaced water panel. All permits and taxes were included.

I've hired Nimmer a few times in the past, and have always had a great experience with them. Mark Nimmer went the extra mile when I made the appointment. I recently purchased the home and have no experience with boilers, and he took the time to explain several things about the system to me on the phone. The Technician that did the work was very pleasant and knowledgeable. He took the time (again) to explain several things about the unit, and also presented us with several different options for servicing the boiler. Overall, I think this is a great, customer-oriented company.

The serviceman was right on time, and managed to diagnose one part of the problem immediately. After the switch unit had been replaced, the fan still wasn't turning as fast as it should have been so he checked a few more things and found the capacitor was shot. Five minutes and a new capacitor later, everything was ship-shape again.

Our 30 year old boiler had been acting up, and we called Nimmer to look at it. Kevin came by the same day I called, and told me it needed to be replaced. I called several companies for estimates, but Mark Nimmer s enthusiasm, and product line convinced me he was the best contractor. They were competitive, but not the absolute lowest estimate we received. The installation crew was very nice and professional - but they could have cleaned up better after they left. I will continue to use Nimmer whenever we need a HVAC contractor.

Not only were they exceptionally pleasant on the phone and in person, but the rep. took the time to explain what the problem is with our very old boiler. He told me what to watch for, as a precaution, until the boiler is replaced. There was no hard sell to buy the replacement from them ASAP. I will certainly put Nimmer on the top of the list of companies I get estimates from.
Description of Work: My boiler was making strange sounds, so I called 1st thing Monday morning to see if they could take a look. A temporary fix was made, so we could have the time to get quotes and plan for purchase of a new boiler.

I called first thing in the morning when we didn't have heat, and they said they would have a technician here between 10-Noon. He called when he was on his way. He diagnosed the problem within 20 minutes, went to get a new part, came back an hour later, and installed it in 25 minutes. I was charged only one hour labor, but the part was expensive. I did a search on-line to get an idea of the markup on parts. The same part is $103 on-line, and we were charged $285. The margin is in the parts, but what can you do? There's no way we could've figured it out ourselves. The good news is that they are very reasonable on labor. Kevin is super nice and honest, but it's interesting to learn the markup on HVAC parts.
