    I purchased a Navien Hot water unit 1 , 1/24/22 . water heater blew up in freezing conditions 12/24/22. We placed a heat electric tape around the plumbing and an hot water wrap bag to protect the unit.. 12/27/22 I went to City plumbing to obtain parts. . I was informed the company has no parts and the warranty was good for a year . i was informed they have no service , no repairs, no parts but only sell the units and to contact Tech support in Calif and possibly parts could be located there or Korea but that i could not purchase the parts from Navien only through City plumbing once i identified the damaged parts . In desperation I bought a new unit from City plumbing and transported in the backseat of my truck on the afternoon of 12/27/22 to my *************/28/22 my plumber removed the unit 2from its cardboard box, styrofoam and found several fittings cracked and broken and ice in those fittings . .I went and purchased unit 3 city plumbing . . The plumber installed unit 3 . i have been customer since 2006 and have had a account for many years. When I attempted to return unit 2 ******* said he would like to investgate and talk to ******. I ask for assistance in identifying parts damaged in unit 1 . It was agreed that i could drop off unit 1 to be evaulated and if the product exploded from ice, defective parts, or try to determine what happen . 1/6/23 i was instructed to pick up my two units by ***************** . I traveled to City plumbing and met with ************** . He made some statements that were false, amazing and asinine . He stated that the " warranty was only for the company not the consumer it protects them "and he said that everyone knows that ****** Hot water heaters are tested at the factory for leaks and water remains in the unit ! And me storing the heater inside in my truck was the same thing of leaving the unit in rain and advised his ware house never goes below 37. I learn the warehouse wasn't heated. Advised I own unit 2. I left 2 under protest by him.

    I am very disappointed with the owner's decision to cancel our order for $23,000.00 over a $1,400.00 vent hood that we decided would not work for us (GE P/N UVW93642PSS) which after checking this item on-line, this is in stock in many locations, so it is not custom. We agreed to a re-stocking fee to return the vent hood a few weeks later, and then they told us it could not be returned at all and we would have to pay for it in full. At this point our only recourse was to dispute the payment on our Am Ex card. After this, the owner cancelled the entire order for our GE Cafe refrigerator, dishwasher, oven/stove, microwave and additional oven! Now after using all of the dimension given from City Plumbing, our $30K work of cabinets are in, and now we do not have our appliances. We ordered these over 3 months ago! We could have gone to a "big box" company, but we try to support local business. Words cannot explain how mad I am at this company and it's owner, in particular, as he made this decision himself!Please avoid doing business with this company!
