Halco provided exceptional service on an installation - I highly recommend their services!
Cory was fantastic. He took time to explain our different options and was very knowledgeable about the products.
We got a new heat pump system including a water heater which was giving us some problems cooling the living space. Halco was responsive to our concerns and worked with us to resolve the situation eventually replacing the whole water heater with another design. They care about their customer service rating and are committed to do right by their customers
Friendly workers. Did great work, were quick and cleaned up great. Love the work they did and it has already resulted in lower energy costs. Job well done
I am very pleased with the work they have done for me. They put a furnace, air conditioning, and fixed my gas leak. They were prompt and very helpful during the process.
The individuals that worked on my home were helpful, professional, knowledgeable, explained the system and answered my questions as the project went along. I appreciated them wearing their booties over their shoe as well. It was a great experience with a big project that could have been stressful.
Bob was very professional and very helpful. He did a great job on everything he did.
Woke up to a cold house on Saturday. Furnace was making loud noises so called Halco. Jason came out that day (on time) and diagnosed the issue. He took the time to show me in detail the problem and answered all of my questions. He came back later and dropped off space heaters to my home. Tyler came out on Sunday to…

Update 12/20/25: I had two heat pumps install in September. I had to buy a Nest thermostat to replace the defective Midea one that came with the system, at my…
Jenni and Trevor did a great job installing our multi zone heating and cooling mini split units. They were very professional, communicating what and when they were doing, demonstrating how to use the systems, and keeping the worksites neat. Everything was done in three days.
Anthony Sheets Did An amazing job he went above and beyond and fixed my gutters.100/100 highly recommend
Courteous, prompt and knowledgable service
Tyler and Zack were on time, very knowledgeable, and able to answer all of our questions.Zack explained everything very clearly and showed us everything on the system that we would need to know. We highly recommend HALCO!
Halco is always great.
On our Seneca Lake property, under emergency conditions (old furnace failed; outdoor temperatures in the teens), Halco (Phelps) installed new furnace within 2 days of old furnace failure and AC unit 4 days later. New furnace is operating flawlessly; AC unit will be tuned up when temperatures get warmer.
They went above and beyond doing the work that was done at my home respectful of my property made sure they cleaned up after themselves explained everything they did made sure I reviewed everything before they left thank you all so much sorry about the late review
I have had several services done in the past month. Everyone has been professional, polite and friendly, as well as helpful. I feel confident in the work they have done. I highly recommend this company.
Had good conversation with Tyler ,am looking forward to the work !
Mike did a great job, was professional, communication was great and patient! Thank you!
Brandon was knowledgeable of heat pumps and looked out for the consumer as best he could. Double checked everything to make the next step in the process go as smoothly as possible. The next team Travis and Mason sealed the floor joist. They did a great job. Took great care to cover everything and remove plastic once completed.
