Excellent service. We had four split air systems installed. The entire team from sales, electrical and installation crew were great to work with.

We were particularly impressed by how well they cleaned up after themselves, and all the units work as intended.

Then I was told it’s probably my WiFi extenders, so I purchased new ones as well. I did several…

Had alternate energy install a hot water system 14 years ago. That’s about as long as it lasted. Had to replace the pump about 3 times which was about $300 a pump. Called for a price for a new system, the $1000 discount is making it comparable with the other quotes I got. The numbers quoted is not realistic. Basically the pump system they use overheats the tank causing premature failure. Sales guy told me I got my mo…
