I am so pleased with the service and work done by Elmar! They came out to my home within an hour of calling and the service professional was able to get my heat working quickly. I was surprised that he was able to fix it without charging me for equipment but they did advise if it didn’t work what the cost would be to fix it, so I could prepare. Most companies would try to get the higher price upfront so I REALLY appreciate them wanting to save me money and keep me informed.
