    I have hired FJ Hess four times in the past five years. In January 2022, my furnace would not start automatically, so I had Johnny come up and replace nozzles and filters. Overnight, the furnace did not kick on and the house cooled down to 37°F. Sal gave me a hard time and demanded the weekend service call rate for Tyler to come up and see what Johnny missed. Tyler fiddled around and declared the problem solved. I turned off the water and drained the pipes anyway. A few days later, it got very cold and three pipes burst because the furnace failed to kick on again. Luckily, the damage was minor. Tyler came back to evaluate the damage and I never heard from FJ Hess again. Lawsuit pending.
