DO NOT USE CJS!! CJS installed an HVAC system in our home on August 4, 2023 and it has been nothing but trouble since it was installed. The guy who installed it punctured our water line and then left. We had to call him back to fix his problem. He of course did not have the equipment to fix it so we had to go to Lowe's to buy the parts for him to fix the leak. Less than a year later the air conditioning unit froze up from the outside and stopped blowing cold air. They came out and of course couldn't find anything wrong. June 2025 the air conditioner stopped working again and froze up from the outside all the way to the furnace. Of course it is over 90 degrees outside. We were told we would be put on an emergency list for service. We were told we were 3rd on the list. An appointment was made for July 7th. We called the next day to inquire about the emergency service. We were told a manager would call us back. No one called. We called again and asked to speak to a manager. We were told he was at lunch and he would call us back. No one called. Service technician showed up on July 7th and found a loose wire that was not installed correctly. As soon as he left, the air conditioner froze up AGAIN. Called right away and was scheduled for July 10th. Service technician shows up, took the cover off the furnace and the whole system quit. Of course he doesn't have a part to fix the problem so we are without any air conditioning at all, AGAIN. We called immediately and asked to speak to a manager. I was told no one was available to speak to me and I would have to wait until tomorrow. This system has been nothing but a headache!! And NO ONE from CJS cares!! We can't even get anyone to call us back. Horrible service!! Horrible product. DO NOT RECOMMEND!!Business Response

We had a CJS technician come out to our house on 15 May 25 to attempt to fix our air conditioner. He diagnosed it as needing a new motherboard on the furnace, as well as a new thermostat. I agreed to go along with the quote of $3237. I paid 1/3 of the quote ($1079) on a Key Bank debit card on 15 May 25. I began calling for updates on the part after we returned from a vacation on 4 June. Each time, I was told that the part had been ordered, but they had no ETA when the part would be in. I called again on 19 Jun, asked for an update on the part order, and paid another 1/3 of the bill (paid $1079 on my Key Bank debit card). At this time, the weather began to get quite warm in the 90s. I called again on 20 Jun 25 and asked for a supervisor to call me back (no response). I called again on 23 Jun, 24 Jun, and 25 Jun asking to speak to a supervisor…still no response on all three dates.
On 24 Jun 25, I called another HVAC company who came out the same day, diagnosed it as a shorting wire on the outside A/C unit fan. This was fixed within a few hours and only cost $400. Our house was reading at 91 degrees inside the home, and it was becoming unbearable to live in.
I have asked for CJS to cancel my order request from 15 May 25 and to refund my money of $2158…still no response.
I am hoping the BBB will be able to assist me with this matter.Business Response

June 2024 we paid CJS $17,328 for a new HVAC system. The guy who came out spent hours with us to pick the correct unit, which we appreciated. A few weeks later we started having issues with the thermostat, we called and a different guy came out and replaced the thermostat, another couple weeks we started having the same issues with the thermostat, another guy from CJS came out and fixed whatever the issue was. About a month later we were having issues with the actual unit, again another guy came out and had to replace some wiring on the new unit. A couple more months go by and we started noticing leaking in our garage near the pipes for the furnace and HVAC return. We call CJS they send yet another guy out who informs us we need to reroute the pipes for the type of unit on the house, something that should have been done when installing the unit, a couple of days later another guy comes out who is supposed to be the project manager, explains how they are going to reroute the pipes and we agree, a couple of days later 3 different guys show up without the project manager and they end up rerouting the pipes through the foundation of our house, which was never explained in the first meeting and something we said not to do. Since this we’ve called multiple times a day, texted all the contacts we have, we have been continuously told that each person is not available, when we do get a hold of someone and when we were finally able to get the project manager to commit to coming out to the house to see what had been done, he didn’t show up.
We are getting fed up with the lack of customer service, the lack of accountability, the lack of communication. We spent $17,328 with this company and are getting the run around. No one within the company seems to speak to one another, as every time someone has been here they have no idea what the issue is and we have to go through it all with a different person over and over again. This is a horrible company to do business with.Business Response

I hired CJS Heating and Air In August, 2024 to install a ductless mini-split air conditioner in my home. It took the techs three days to do a job that was supposed to take one day. When they left my house I was not home (due to their inability to get it done in the one day, as was stated, I had to be at work for 2 of the days they were there working!). When I got home on day 3, I noticed that the techs did not leave me any warranty information or the manual for ANY of the new appliances (which cost over $7,500).
Without the product information, I do not have any access to any warranty or information provided by the manufacturer. This is a product that cost $7500 (total)!!! I have explained this situation multiple times to people at CJS Heating and Air and still I do not have any proof that the appliance I purchased was not used, stolen, refurbished, or defective in some way.
I would like the system replaced at no expense to me and would like the ORIGINAL warranty documents for both the outdoor and indoor components of this system.Business Response

I am filing this complaint regarding a highly unsatisfactory experience with CJS. I contracted them to replace two old furnaces and A/C units in my home, but the service provided has been riddled with issues. The installations occurred on December 22 and 24, 2024, following a deal signed with their representative, *****, on December 20, 2024.
Details of the Complaint:
1. Faulty Installation:
- The first furnace's vent flange was installed improperly, over the roof shingles instead of under them, leaving the roof vulnerable to leaks.
- The second furnace installation was worse. Despite measurements being taken, the furnace had to be repositioned unexpectedly. The flange leaked heavily into our laundry room, causing water damage. Additionally, the PVC pipes running to and from the attic were not sealed.
2. Emergency Situation:
- On a rainy night, I had to climb onto my roof at 3 a.m. to tarp the vent pipe and shut down the second furnace to prevent further damage.
3. Lack of Support:
- Despite advertising 24/7 service, CJS only offers an automated phone bot, which provided no real assistance in my emergency.
- I reported water damage in the attic, but it was dismissed by CJS as “no big deal” and “should dry just fine.”
4. Unresponsive Management:
- I requested to use my trusted roofer (who originally installed my roof) to fix the issues, but CJS management has delayed approving or denying this.
- The Operations Manager, Daijon, refused my roofer and found it “confusing” that I’d want to use him.
5. Past Negligence:
- I have had prior issues with CJS as well. In 2021, their install caused ceiling damage and required repairs due to negligence.
Desired Resolution:
- Approval to use my trusted roofer to fix the roof and piping issues, with CJS covering the costs.
- Reimbursement for damages caused by their poor workmanship, including water damage to my attic and laundry room.
- A formal apology for the inconvenience and unprofessional service I’ve endured.Business Response

Our residence was built in 1997 and we were the first occupants, when we moved in July 2001. After discovering issues with the original furnace and A/C, which were all electric, we sought out Geo Thermal solutions. Following an extensive research process, we chose to work with CJS based on their reputation and the quality of their team. Following their recommendation, we upgraded our single zone into four zones and purchased ClimateMaster products, which are considered the best in the market.
Additionally, we added a Mitsubishi Mini-split to heat and cool our Florida Room, which has proven to be an excellent choice. We made a considerable investment of $31,000, to purchase a new ClimateMaster Tranquility® Geo Thermal Furnace, complete with a ten-year manufacturer
warranty on parts and labor.We have had no issues with the Mini-split, and we maintain our Gold Membership annual maintenance plan with CJS to service both units. Our long-standing relationship with CJS has been productive and positive, ensuring the continued comfort and efficiency of our residence.
They reschedule our appointments. It became a joke as I would bet my husband dinner that they would reschedule and usually I would be right.
Despite our overall positive experiences with CJS up to this point, we have encountered a series of issues with our unit. The zone board has required replacement twice, the main logic board twice, we're on our third fan motor, and the zone dampers have each been replaced twice or three times. They did upgrade the dampers to a better quality damper at no additional cost.
While CJS has been diligent in resolving our issues, we believe the root of the problem lies with the furnace itself, and have requested its replacement multiple times. Unfortunately, when we needed assistance last October, we were informed that our Geo unit was no longer covered by our Gold Maintenance Plan. They decided, without notice that our furnace was now assigned as a commercial account, with corresponding commercial rates. Recently, our furnace stopped working again, and while CJS quickly dispatched a service person, we have spent over a thousand dollars on recommended equipment upgrades. We installed a whole house surge protection unit and a special condenser that protected the compressor from the high startup voltage required when the compressor kicked in. We have continued to express our dissatisfaction with the furnace.
To our most recent issue. After they called to reschedule our regular maintenance appointment yet again “Hi, this is CJS Heating & Air. I am reaching out due to unforeseen circumstances we will need to reschedule your appointment. Please call ************ and we will be happy to get you back on the schedule. Thank you.” The furnace went out again. To their credit, since the system was down, CJS dispatched a service person.
Please review out uploaded document, CJS Complaint. It thoroughly explains the issue and desired solution. We are not able to properly submit the issue within 2000 characters.

CJS completed the open repair issue. They have not performed the no-cost fall service as part of the service agreement.***** did not address the fact that this furnace has been a total lemon since day one. We bought the system based on his recommendation. I was hoping he could at least go to Climate Master and see if they could extend the warranty in lieu of the issues we have experienced. I really believe the furnace should have been replaced within the first couple of years.Thank you for assisting us in resolving our service issue with CJS.**** and **** *******Initial Complaint

1. We contacted CJS in February of 2024 about our furnace. **** come out and he advised we should have the ducts in our house cleaned and the furnace cleaned. He quoted $2000.00 for the job. A third party company they sent to do the duct cleaning. Horrible job and we were sick for 2 weeks after because what was blown out of the vents into the house. Tech then came to clean the furnace and advised us that it did not require cleaning. They removed a $1000.00 off the bill. Paid a $1000 for the duct cleaning way to high.
2. Our AC unit went out on June 14, 2024 during the hot spell we had. My husband has health issues and neither of us handle the heat well. Against my better judgement I called CJS to get an estimate on fixing or replacing the AC unit. Then **** showed up and said to replace it would be $5880. Was told they would be here on June 17, 2024 to replace it. They sent 2 tech that were not very experienced and did not have all the tools to complete the job. My husband loaned them things so they could get it installed. My husband has experience in heating and air but unable to do the work anymore. The unit ran for 2 days and quit working then on June 20th they came back out realized it was installed incorrectly. Changes which took place on June 27. It still was not corrected so on July 8, 2024 the condenser unit and A Coil was replaced with brand new and they worked on it until it was correct. After 4 crews they finally got it working.
My husband spoke with office staff and asked for the warranty hard copy and what we paid $5880.00 for. He was advised multiple times management would call him. July 24 a manager called he said he would try to get us a hard copy of the warranty. They seem to not want to take any responsibility for the work or honor the warranty. We were told would be extended due to all the issues. What we want is to have a copy of the warranty and what it covers and how long. Also a breakdown of the $5880.
I am very disappointed by CJS.Business Response

Subject: Update on Conversation with *** *******
I wanted to provide you with an update on my conversation with *** *******. *** ******* expressed his frustrations in a very heated manner, using inappropriate language and speaking negatively about our team of installers and technicians. In response, I respectfully asked *** ******* to maintain a level of respect when discussing our team and refrain from using explicit language. Unfortunately, *** ******* chose to end the conversation abruptly and hung up.
Despite the challenging nature of our conversation, I am pleased to inform you that *** ******* and I were able to come to a resolution regarding the issues he raised. We are prepared to schedule a technician to install the surge protector and compressor saver, along with providing a hard copy of the extended warranty.
I plan to reach out to *** ******* once his emotions have subsided in order to ensure that he is completely satisfied with the steps we are taking to address his concerns and to provide him with the outstanding service he deserves.
Thank you for your understanding and support as we work to resolve this matter promptly and effectively.

I am rejecting this response because:You will no longer speak to my husband I am requesting you only speak to me ****** *******. *** ******** you did not come to an agreement with my husband as stated. We have been dealing with this for over 6 weeks which is uncalled for. If your tech's are well trained then why did it take 8 different techs to get it up and running. My husband was very calm thru each time someone showed up and did not disrespect any of your Technicians. He was promised multiple times that management would call him thru out this process and no one ever did until your call on July 24, 2024. You have to understand why he became VERY frustrated with the situation. I will accept the conditions that a tech and come and install the surge protector and the Compressor saver along with the hard copy of the extended warranty.

This complaint is filed against CJS Heating and Air of Dayton, doing business at **** ********** ******* ****** ************ *** *****.
This complaint concerns my CANCELLATION of the CJS “Yes” maintenance plan, and their continued monthly billing for this cancelled plan, now claiming I am past due.
I cancelled the “Yes” maintenance plan, in writing on May 14, 2024—and mailed via USPS Certified Mail (at my expense) to the 8070 Washington Village Drive address on May 15, 2024. This certified mail was received and signed-for by CJS on May 23, 2024. I possess all receipts and signatures concerning this certified mail and its contents.
The certified mail contained two pieces:
ONE: a brief letter stating: a) the immediate and permanent cancellation of my monthly subscription to the CJS “Yes” program; b) the request for refund for no service performed since December 2023; and, c) a ‘for the record’ statement that my AC unit is still not functioning properly, and that I am no longer to be considered a CJS customer.
TWO: a photocopy of the May invoice with the word “Cancelled” written in bold Sharpie across the page.
When the certified letter was sent, I was fully paid through April 2024. I was current and not past due.
CJS Heating and Air has NOT acknowledged my cancellation of the “Yes” plan, but rather continues to bill me for this terminated plan, now claiming I am now past due.
I need CJS Heating and Air to:
1. Acknowledge receiving my formal written request to cancel my participation in the “Yes” program, immediately and permanently.
2. Enter my cancellation into their billing system.
3. To cease and desist from further future billing statements and demands for payment.
4. To refund to me, as requested in the letter, $83.96 for no service performed since December 2023 (four months of payments I paid in the amount of $20.99/month in January, February, March, and April 2024).Business Response

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me.Additionally, CJS did not acknowledge, as requested, the ongoing issues with the AC unit purchased and installed by them in April 2022. Since my cancellation of their YES maintenance I have contacted a reputable HVAC company to service that AC unit. Almost immediately, that company identified the issue-- the AC unit was not installed properly by CJS.

I had CJS come to my house and thought I was being sold a good product. I had got the new LG dual ventless duct system (I think that’s what it’s called) and was supposed to get a tankless hot water system as well. Come to find out my electrical panel would not be able to hold the power for the tankless system so I decided to not get it but I was still charged for it on my loan. since CJS installed the new LG system around the ending of August 2023 I’ve had nothing but problems with the system not only that but property damage to the inside of my house, CJS had a company come out to fix the damages but only made it worse, I have spoken several times in calls/text to the project manager ***** about my concerns and issues about the system just shutting down (this has happened multiple times) in the middle of the night freezing outside and inside my house and I’ve been really passionate with him about it, he has sent Tech out to check the problem but no one couldn’t come up with a solution, he has always told me that he was going to come out to look at the damages, but never shows up because something else has taken place. My system just died on January 26th made a big bang noise and I sent another message he sent Tech to move one of my units to another room (this did not fix the problem only made it worse) and now on February 12 I notified him that the system was down and he did nothing. So I called the office they sent someone out to look at it on February 22 to say that the refrigerant has a leak and he can’t fix it the system is broken, it’s in the middle of February I have no heat and the only thing they have told me is 2 get space heater to heat my house. I have asked several times 2 speak 2 a manager or someone high up, I just get blown off with no idea if I’m getting it fixed or not $33,176.99 waste plus I still haven’t received a refund on the tankless hot water system nor the property damages fixed. I need heat and the space heaters are making my bills higher.Business Response

Dear *****,
I'm sorry to hear about the issues you have experienced with your new LG dual ventless duct system and the lack of resolution from our team. I understand how frustrating it must be to have property damage and a malfunctioning heating system during the winter months.
First and foremost, I want to apologize for the confusion regarding the tankless hot water system and the incorrect charge on your loan. That should not have happened, and a refund check was sent to you yesterday.
Regarding the ongoing problems with your LG system, I apologize for the inconvenience and discomfort you have been through. It was unacceptable that our team had not been able to provide a solution despite multiple visits and conversations with our project manager, Shawn. I completely understand your frustration and the urgency of having a functioning heating system, especially during this cold season. I am hopeful the new LG condenser unit we provided you has rectified the situation.
I want to assure you that I take your concerns seriously. Our highest priority is to address these issues, fix the system, and restore your comfort as soon as possible.
Furthermore, I will work closely with our team to ensure that the property damages are fixed promptly and to your satisfaction. This is not the level of service we aim to provide, and we apologize for any inconvenience caused.
In the meantime, if there's anything else we can do to assist you, please don't hesitate to contact me directly at *** ****** at ************. We genuinely value your feedback and appreciate your patience as we work to resolve these matters.
Once again, I apologize for the inconvenience and frustration caused and thank you for bringing these concerns to our attention. We are committed to making things right for you.
Kind regards,
*** ******

So after making my complaint with the BBB about CJS I finally got some help back I received a replacement unit that seems to be working so far, but time will tell like the last one. I did however also receive a refund check for the hot water tank unit that I did not receive. But I’m still facing the property damage and still have not heard back from CJS or the company that they vendor through, I have waited almost 3 weeks now no call or responses from anyone, I just received out to ***** again on 3/19/24 he did not answer I left a voicemail, no call back. I also called again today 3/21/24 still no answer went to voicemail again. So I had no alternative but to reach out to the CEO he responded to my complaint I called him today 3/21/24 there was also no answer I left him a voicemail still waiting for a call back. All in all I’m still waiting on my property damages to be fixed.Business Response

My furnace was replaced by them in 2023. Had a great team and they got the work completed quickly. A year later, Jan 2024, my furnace kept tripping it's main breaker. CJS sent a tech, claimed I needed a new electrical ION filter, and insisted I sign up for their "YES Club". This is what the tech said I needed to fix my unit. Just a side note: if adding more electrical pull from this new filter, my breaker is still going to trip. Fast forward 6 hours later, my furnace continued to trip the main breaker. I got a second opinion, from another contractor, and it was a bad breaker at the electrical panel. I have contacted CJS 4 times to request a refund, a month later after numerous excuses, I have yet to have my money refunded. I was told by 3 different people there I deserved this refund.Business Response
