Did a great job. They came on time cleaned up nice guys. Would recommend them to anyone
Working with Essential Heating and Air was a great experience since the beginning, I’m glad I found them and after reading all their reviews I knew I couldn’t go wrong. They were very fast to contact me back and schedule an appointment, when they came to my home they gave me all the information so I could understand…
Daniel was great! He explained everything thoroughly, was on time and on schedule, and consciousness of my home. We are extremely happy with our new heat pump! Christian was also amazing and helped guide us through our options and provided all the information we asked for and more! Thank you for your excellent service!
Awesome job, highly recommend 👏
Essential Heat and Air gave us a very good quote on installing a new heat pump. They were quick to install by next day, very thorough, professional and had it all installed and running in one day. We were thrilled by the efficiency. Also very good guarantees on service and equipment. We are happily ready for Winter. Vivienne and Gary.
Great price. Mine was a big job from 8am to 11pm out with one heavy oil burning furnace and a really old heat pump in New York heat pump and New York electric furnace. It pulled new wire for the power to the new furnace. They really covered it with a lot of guys at one time there was five guys there working looks good.
Great, efficient installation with respectful workers. Cleaned up very well after themselves and I couldn't be happier with the end result!
They came early and got to work. Added wiring to my electric panel and new breakers, put in a new heat pump which really looks great, took out the old furnace and put in a new one and they made sure everything was working properly and then they showed me how to operate the system. I was very impressed with the job…
the installation crew were amazing and did everything with care and precision. my hat is off especially to the electrician and the way he managed to work with the lath and plaster and the old sheetrock in the ceiling in and old bedroom. if I ever need any electrical work done I would ask for him. thank you.
Sebastian is fantastic and an obvious expert at his profession. Very good customer service and personality. Your lucky to have him.
Kevin was an exceptional sales rep. Knowledgeable, responsive, respectful. The crew did a great job on a new furnace and hot water heater, heat pump install, old ducting replacement, and electrical panel upgrade. Very happy, highly recommend.
Dan, Omar, and Zane. Spent the entire day replacing our old furnace and installing ac. They were respectful of our home and property. It has been a great experience starting with Taylor the salesman to the great installers. We highly recommend them and Essential Heating.
Courteous, friendly, efficient, knowledge, took measures to keep my home clean. Kept me informed
Excited to get my furnace and ac replaced. Staff is professional and kind. Prices are competitive. Will post photos once their done!
The guys were polite and got right to work, enjoyed meeting them.
Knowledgeable installation crew with excellent customer service skills.
Great job!!
I was on vacation during the month of the Heat Pump and Furnace installation, so I had plenty of time to do research, get quotes, and analyze what HVAC companies had to offer. By far, Essential Heating & Air was better in every area I cared about; the cost, timeline, brand, guarantees, and maintenance program were…
The technicians were absolutely professionals. Got it done in 7 hrs completed. I was impressed. Installed and cleaned up and was working as it should. Thank you Essential for training them so well !! Bruce Aubrey 🙂
