Tech arrived exactly when promised. Got to work and was done, cleaned up and paid in 1.5 hours. Neat installation. Connected copper tubing to hot soft water line over about 9 feet of ceiling via floor truss. All packaging, scraps and other debris removed from house. Very clean installation. Humidifier controlled from same solid state thermostat that runs the furnace and a/c, also installed by Pharo several years ago. Tech gave me brief and simple instructions on use and adjustment of humidity level. After a couple of days, humidity settled down to setting we desired and has been quiet and trouble-free since. Recommended.

Smooth. He was (and always is) extremely punctual, arrived within a minute of the scheduled time. He got right to work, answered any questions I had, and I still made it to work on time!

I have been using them for probably 20 years. We had built a house years ago; we are not living there anymore but they installed the AC and furnace so we just kept going to them.

I would use them again. That was not the first time I used them. I have used them probably for 22 years.

The technician arrived right on schedule. He performed the checkup quickly and professionally. He also made suggestions for maintaining the AC unit. I couldn't be more pleased with the experience, and will call Pharo the next time I need any furnace or AC assistance.

Very professional.  Unlike others, Pharo did not recommend re-charge system as the temperature output was fine.  They made a few other practical suggestions.

They do an outstanding job.  I have an older furnace/AC which they keep running without problems.  I have asked them to keep me informed if there are any serious concerns with the systems.  They provided me with a quote for a replacement system, which I will have them install if and when the need arises.

Pharo Heating and Cooling has provided my regular maintenance service for many years and I recommend them without hesitation.

Excellent - a very stressful situation (unit in closet) turned out to no stress. First the office - coordinated everything from electrical bids to installation and answered all my questions. Worked with my schedule for all of this - excellent customer service. Installation - fantastic! They were professional and timed everything with the electrician. They were able to install the inside unit without tearing up the drywall!

Our A/C did not give cool air to reach the thermostat's temperature.  Called the company and was told to wait and see overnight if cool air will kick in eventually (since it was pretty hot and humid that day, after long cold winter days).
Overnight, A/C still not giving enough cool air, so we called next morning to have technician come that day (after 2pm).  The lady at their office was very nice, she called around 3:25pm to inform that our request is still on their schedule that day, but technician was just running late. Around 4:45pm, technician showed up promptly, checked, and found out outdoor unit's capacitor was not working.  He replaced the capacitor.  Work was very quick, I think less than 15 minutes total.

I didn't notice my furnace wasn't working until early evening. The sun had been out all day and kept my home fairly warm. So I knew I'd be in for after hour pricing. The temperature outside was near zero and my inside temperature was dropping 1-2 degrees/hour. I called Pharo (since they were the original installers of the furnace) and their answering service took the call. A technician called me back within 10 minutes. I explained my problem and he said he'd be over in 45 minutes (he had to drive from his home to Madison). He also very clearly explained the additional off hour charge and made sure I was ok with paying that rate. With the outdoor temperature dropping below zero - I couldn't afford to wait until morning - so I agreed to the additional charges.
Jeff arrived on time and did some basic troubleshooting on my furnace. He was truly dismayed to identify the circuit board as the failed component. He was hoping it was a less expensive part. He did not have a replacement in his truck - so he left to hunt one down. He went to a co-worker's and searched his truck and didn't find the part. He then went back to the shop and searched there. Over an hour had passed and I was worried he wasn't able to find the part. He came back about 90 minutes later with the part. He said he almost gave up searching in the shop but eventually found the part. It took him all of 10 minutes to install it.

I appreciated the fact that Jeff went the extra mile to find the part for me that night. He could have easily said I'd have to wait until the next day. He was courteous, genuinely concerned and made sure I didn't go without heat for the night. He again explained the additional cost and basically it cost me $100 more for the off hour labor and trip charge. I did not feel I was overcharged and it was worth it for me to get my heat restored that evening.

I have had Pharo come out and service my furnace/AC unit in the past. Each time they have been courteous, prompt and fully resolved the problem without a return visit. I am very pleased with their technicians and customer service and highly recommend them as a service provider. I am a happy customer.1

Our furnace ignitor failed the day after Thanksgiving. Pharo did a temporary repair and replaced the furnace (almost 20 years old) today.
