Get directionsI had called service experts to check my A/C as I had a service contract. About 4/2/20, a serviceman AND a salesman came to my house. The salesman proceeded to tell me that my A/C was old and needed replaced although it had worked at the end of the previous season. They wrote up a contract: $15,000 paid over 10 years (128.50/month), a lien on my house and at the end of the 10 years I still would not own the A/C but would have to pay approx another $4,500. I foolishly signed the contract as I did not have money to buy one out... read more

During my semi-annual service appointment, Tech diagnosed capacitor was below specification and suggested replacement. He quoted price of $140 which I paid. Being curious, I googled part he installed and found it was available for less than $3. After complaining about price in survey, I received a call about situation. Caller stated corporate sets pricing for parts not local management or Tech. If you use their service, suggest you research pricing before having them replace any part.

***** - We understand how frustrating HVAC expenses can be and apologize if we did not do a better job of explaining our prices. All pricing includes our 100% Satisfaction Guarantee for 365 days as well as 24/7/365 support. We apologize for any confusion. Thank you.
I just had my first maintenance appointment with D&K. I was very impressed with the technician's knowledge and professionalism. Well worth the price and time.
Business response:
We are so glad you chose us for your maintenance call and look forward to continuing to be your trusted partner for any HVAC needs!
Excellent response time. Technician Adam was very knowledgeable, upfront with the pricing options and clearly explained what the issue was with my furnace. I will likely contact this company when it is time to replace my furnace. Highly recommend.

***** - We appreciate your business and thank you for this great review!
When our old gas-hot water boiler shorted out, we called Knohelman in Cincinnati. They responded promptly by sending out a sales rep. He seemed very knowledgeable and service oriented. He looked at our boiler and asked to be taken through our house to see all the radiators and baseboard heaters. He was probably here at least for an hour before leaving and promising us a quick quote on replacement. Shortly thereafter, he did call with a quote that was in excess of $12,000. I asked him to send a written estimate and to advise ... read more

While some of our customers prefer to pay everything up front, others do not, and as such, prefer our Advantage Program. Our Advantage Program pricing allows our customers to have peace of mind with continual maintenance support on new equipment for one low monthly payment.
WARNING! Do not use Pink Plumber. Call T&E Certified Plumbers instead. We had an entire home contracted to be plumbed by The Pink Plumber. From the start we should have recognized the issue. Our tech, Josh was the one who gave the quote and was going to be our main contact. Sadly, he didn't really know how to actually re-plumb a home. We had many issues arising in the first week. Pipes being run across ceilings in our lower level, a trench that needed to be dug where it was not included in the quote, values for showers and t... read more

I requested H& N A/C a firm I have used for 11 years to come out to review a problem. These guy showed up. I was never made aware of the fact that H&N had been sold to this firm and I had to call the office and press them to find out the former from the woman on the phone. The two guys who showed up one was a tech and the other was a salesman who had one thing on his mind. He would not answer my questions and would only there to pressure me as to his agenda which was to sell me a complete new system. After 30 min of this I s... read more
