What our neighbors say
★★★★★
“The air coming through my vents stopped and I did some research and I thought it could be one of the components. Since I don't have experience with it, I called a few companies to take a look and a very known local company came out and quoted me almost $20K to replace my entire furnace to a heat pump. They were nice, but clearly just trying to flip a sale.
I called Roth and he came and spent a ton of time doing testing and ruling out different components. Finally, he recommended that I replace the control board, which I had to special order for my old unit and then I installed it myself since it's pretty easy with all the DIY videos on YouTube. Once it was swapped out, it was working again! A $300 fix that hopefully buys me some time, but when that time comes, I know who to call now. It's good to work with honest, hard-working folks like Roth.”
★★★★★
“Roth was able to come out to my house within 2 days (most other places were a week out). He was very detailed in his work and took the time to explain things to me. He was able to diagnose what was wrong with my AC and fix it without selling me stuff I didn't need. Roth was excellent and I highly recommend him to anyone for HVAC.”
