Had Ricky out to the house twice now. Always great. Fixed our problems and is always super nice. We will be requesting him to field any future calls from now on.
We had an urgent situation come up with our HVAC on a Sunday and Kenny was able to help us same day! We really appreciated this!! Thank you, Kenny!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Kenny is the best technician I’ve ever worked with! He is friendly, fast, and highly skilled. I couldn’t be happier with his service and would gladly give him the highest possible rating. Highly recommended!
Brady Niswonger, a Cornel's Technician, recently came to our home for A/C maintenance. He provided excellent service (with visual aids), addressed all questions, and was most thorough and congenial. . . complete with a great attitude and outlook. Brady really seems to enjoy his work . . . how refreshing! We hope…
What I thought was bad wiring for my thermostat led to the discovery that my furnace was leaking carbon monoxide into my house. Tim did an extremely thorough inspection of the furnace and AC units, explaining and showing me what he as looking at and for. Neither were working properly. The next day I met Dan, who was…
Had my heat pump fixed NATHAN was great answered all my question gave me tips on keeping my system up told me what he found and explained it all the way thru. he was friendly and professional. Went right to work he was above a 10 !!! THANKS NATHAN
Cornel installed a new heat pump and furnace in our home last week after our 20 year old system died on us. They were extremely professional and communicative which I greatly appreciated. I shopped around for a few quotes before deciding to go with them. They were not the cheapest, but they by far did the best…
I can't say enough good things about Cornel. What I appreciate most is that it's rare to find a company today that genuinely cares about making sure their customers are taken care of. They operate with integrity, follow through on their commitments, and communicate every step of the way. We initially called because…
We highly recommend Cornel’s for HVAC services. We recently used Cornel’s for HVAC maintenance, and Wayne, their technician, was courteous, professional, and thorough. He listened carefully as we described a warm bedroom upstairs and traced the issue to a poorly designed, overly long air‑duct run that was split to…
I’m sure they’re great at service and repair but they’re priced significantly higher than any other company we called. They Charged $160 diagnostic fee then quoted $4,500 for the repair (that was just for labor-the part was covered under warranty). We ended up going with Oregon Heating & Air Conditioning who charged…
Great work. Has them come out and they solved my issues super quick. Great service. Wayne in particular was great to work with. Very easy to communicate with and he was done fast! Saved me lots of headache.
Our furnace quit durning a recent stretch of cold weather. Tyler did a fantastic job of diagnosing the problem. He was able to get the furnace running again while he ordered a replacement part. As soon as the part came in, Tyler came out and made the fix! Tyler was thorough and helpful, and he made sure we were not without heat during the cold snap.
We dealt with a complicated problem of our furnace. After another company could not detect anything wrong with our system, I was lucky enough to contact Cornel's HVAC. Wayne, the technician, did not give up until he found the problem and took care of two problems expertly, both related to the secondary heat…
I called Cornels because of recommendations from my neighbors. I knew my gas furnace wasn’t working well and thought it just needed service. Dan came over and did a system check and took pictures of the unit. As it turned out it had a crack and I was advised due to safety they had to turn it off. I needed a new…
Tony was great! Explained things well and did a great job.
Furnace was not working. I called Cornel’s and they had a tech out within 3-4 hours. Wayne was incredibly helpful and explained everything in detail. Would definitely recommend.
Always able to help me out with any of my AC and furnace issues! Dan Bloomfield help me out tremendously with my heating problems, and I was able to get a new system set up for installation this Thursday that David was able to help me out with!
Samuel and Veniamin are outstanding HVAC professionals! They recently replaced my AC, heater, and ductwork, and I am quite impressed with both the quality of their work. From the start, Samuel was incredibly thorough in explaining each step of the job. He walked me through what was completed, and provided me with…
When our AC stopped working, Cornel's team showed up promptly and were professional. They reviewed our AC system and identified the problem. A capacitor needed to be replaced. They identified many other problem areas in our AC and furnace. We agreed to have them replace the capacitor for $475. They did the work in…
Tim was excellent. He took his time explaining what he was looking for. He was patient and thoughtful. I would highly recommend this company.
