I called to have someone check out my furnace because I thought it was not functioning. Jim, the owner, was there within 20 minutes. He quickly realized the gas to the furnace wasn't on (clearly I'm a first time homeowner). Such a nice guy. I mentioned that I bought the house as a foreclosure and he remembered being at the house, which is how I came to call his company. I will forever be a loyal customer to Kolar. Thank you!!!

AVOID THIS BUSINESS!!!! I had them install a boiler in Feb 2011. Things seemed to be fine. Then in last 18 months, the display screen flashes red, indicating a problem. They claim to have fixed it. Did not work. Had them out again. They claimed to have fixed it. It failed and I had them out again. They had to order a new ignition control and swore to me that the problem was fixed. It was not and now today, the red flashing screen has returned. Their follow-through is poor. They seem to have failed as a business and I am left... read more

Kolar Heating & Cooling has been outstanding for me. They have kept my (2) old central a/c units working and functioning when three other companies told me I had to replace them. They have serviced and or repaired them several times in the last 3 years. Jim Kolar and his technicians have saved me thousands of dollars with his company's honesty and solid technical skills. I recommend him wholeheartedly.

Kolar Heating & Cooling installed my furnace and a/c units (when I had my house built) nearly 10 years ago. I have only had two service issues since then. Both times were minor items. Their Technician, Mark, was extremely knowlegable, friendly and polite. The owner, Jim Kolar came to my house over the weekend (both times) to install the necessary parts. And...he did not charge me extra for the weekend hours. Now that's Impressive! Thanks Jim and Mark! You guys are the best!!!

Integrity to the MAX – Kolar Heating & Cooling was our original contractor for our new home in 2004. We used them when finished our basement in 2006 and I have used them every year to service and inspect all of my units. Jim Kolar has personally come out to do work because his employees were at another job longer than expected. Kolar has unmatched integrity. I will continue to recommend Kolar to anyone who wants the BEST service with integrity. They stand by all of their work.

SCAM ARTIST – This guy was the subcontractor who outfitted my home. I've had problems with heating, air conditioning, plumbing since I've been there every three months (that is not an exaggeration!). This guy (the owner) is rude on the telephone. He needs to get into some anger management classes and some customer service courses! Please stay away from this company! By far, the WORST!!!!!!

Kolar does not stand behind his work! – I bought a home where Kolar performed the initial installation. The workmanship was extremely poor and I am not sure how it passed a city inspection. It is unfortunate, but he does not stand behind his work. It cost $1000 to have the plumbing redone related to the hot water heater he put in and another $2400 related to retrofits for the ductwork on the HVAC system. Not sure how he gets away with doing that quality of work. I'd avoid him at all costs.

My name is Jim Kolar, owner of Kolar Heating & Cooling, Inc. I'm sorry, but I cannot identify the reviewer who had installation issues with my company, but I can tell you that we have always stood by the work that we do, and I can unequivocably state that if there is an issue with the original installation (assuming we actually did the installation as I do not recall the phone conversation referenced in his review), we would be more than happy to take care of the problem as we would for any customer. I have been in business ... read more

Multiple installation issues – Kolar installed my A/C (2 units) in a new house approximately 3 1/2 years ago. Within a few months the freon was low in one unit and had to be refilled. This spring, we discovered that both units had completely leaked out all the freon. When I contacted Kolar after the discovering the issue with the second unit he was combative and did not want to consider that the problem was based on poor installation. Subsequently we had another service dealer visit us who confirmed that neither unit had bee... read more
