      Complaint Type:
      Billing Issues
      Status:
      Answered

      Reference JOB #106885399 on 11/21/2022 I am writing to express my extreme dissatisfaction with the HVAC installation services provided by your company at my residence. NEW HVAC/Furnace system was purchased for $14,795.00 on 07/07/2023. I regret to inform you that the installation was fraught with numerous issues, including serious safety concerns, which have resulted in significant inconvenience, expenses, and safety hazards for my family. The issues we have encountered are as follows: Propane Leak - On the day following the installation, my family and I experienced a propane leak in our home due to improperly glued propane lines to the new furnace. This incident posed an immediate threat to our safety. The incoming propane lines were not tight or glued. CO Leak: Subsequently, we discovered a carbon monoxide (CO) leak in our home, directly attributed to the faulty installation. This posed a grave health risk to my family. The furnace exhaust pipe was not glued and actually was not seated at all (see photos referenced in in the HVAC Callback Form attached). Improper Charging of the System - The HVAC system's inadequate performance became evident soon after installation. It was discovered that the system was improperly charged, resulting in inefficient operation, increased energy costs, and discomfort for my family. Multiple Service Calls: I have made multiple service calls to your company, incurring further expenses and disruptions to my daily life. Multiple attempts have been made to try to rectify this situation with the business to include numerous phone calls and emails. Ref the following quotes by the tech on-site as shown in the HVAC Callback Form: "Installer error". Ref description on invoice #106885399 "Found exhaust fitting not glued from installation of system in April. Customer has had multiple issues from install, gas leak, unit not charged properly and now a water leak from a exhaust fitting that was not glued. Glued fitting and checked system."

       

      Can you please change this sentence in my complaint: "NEW HVAC/Furnace system was purchased for$14,795.00 on 07/07/2023." 


      The date should be 07/07/2022 not 2023.

      We had an air conditioner unit installed 08/2022. At the time it was not offered or recommended that we purchase a heat pump. The unit that was installed was $13,138.00. We contacted Service Today via telephone in October of 2023 for service. We were informed that we had purchased a heat pump unit in 2022. When the service tech arrived, we were informed that we only had an air condition unit and not a heat pump. We asked what the cost would be to install a heat pump. The Technician walked out to his vehicle and stated that his manager was not available, but the person he spoke with stated that is would be $12,000.00. We contacted another HVAC company and were quoted $7000.00 for a heat pump unit which we accepted, paid cash for, and had installed. Now we are stuck with a disconnected air conditioner unit less than two years old and still making payments on it.

      I apologize, we have done a quite extensive search of our customer database and based on the little information provided, I'm sorry to say we have not been able to find an account for this customer. Perhaps this account is in a different name? Or perhaps this customer is mistaken about which company provided service. If in fact this is a Service Today customer, we very much would like the opportunity to make this right. Please call our office at 800-659-2273.
