    bend studs

    TL;DR Hired Airflows to install a high-pressure ventilation setup. Their tech walked on my non-load-bearing ceiling, cracked it, botched the install, left debris in the ceiling, never communicated internally, & management alternated between denial & blaming me. Final discovery: every duct connection on a high-pressure system was attached only w/ aluminum tape--no collars, no clamps, no screws--meaning everything could fly apart. Absolutely not a company I'd trust w/ anything involving safety, pressure, or basic workmanship. I wasn't planning to write a review, but then I climbed up to inspect the work & realized just how spectacularly bad it was. So here we are. I needed serious ventilation for a powerful shower--nothing off-the-shelf would cut it. After a lot of research, I sourced an in-line radon fan & duct silencer myself & hired Airflows to install them. I supplied the materials, they supplied "workmanship," which they told me was under warranty, but the materials were not. They were informed of all the model numbers weeks in advance & had ample time to research the specs to know how to install it. The technician who showed up was friendly, but apparently allergic to ladders. Instead of using one to reach my 15-foot ceiling, he climbed into the ceiling & walked around on flimsy, non-load-bearing metal studs like they were a dance floor. Predictably, cracks formed. I let it go at first because he was nice & I needed the ceiling patched anyway. He had to come back two weeks later because he forgot to attach the electrical cover on the radon fan, which was a fire hazard. Then things unraveled. A duct connection blew apart a week later & the vent was literally flapping in the ceiling void when the fan ran. I asked Matthew (who quoted the job) about fixing it, & just replacing the current flex duct w/ a different kind & also mentioned the ceiling cracks--he said he'd talk to his manager. Then... silence. No returned calls. The techs arrived w/out any idea of the plan, quoted me even more than the previous quote that I declined, & told me the manager had to see the ceiling damage himself. The service manager came & looked at things, minimized all the damage & told me he'd have his boss call me later that day. The boss eventually called--& the conversation went from "concerned" to "accusatory" in record time. He suggested I could've made the ceiling damage myself, claimed his techs shouldn't have returned w/out charging me despite the workmanship warranty I was explicitly told I had, & said coming to look at the damage would cost me $295. He told me at least a 12 times that they record their phone calls which they can go back & listen to, to make sure they can verify what was said. He said he reviewed the recording & that there was no guarantee on workmanship. There absolutely was, I clarified that w/ Matthew on at least two occasions. When I asked him to send me the recording, he said he would not do that. I wonder why? I got an outside quote & informed him that it would be $300-$350 to fix the ceiling, expecting that to be the end of it. Then I went up into the ceiling myself. What I saw was astonishing. They had removed rigid ductwork but never bothered to take it out--just left everything lying up there. One reducer for the radon fan was perched on an electrical conduit fifteen feet above the ground, in a place only reachable by--yes--walking all over the ceiling again. & the real kicker: every single duct connection on this high-pressure system (capable of ~5" of positive or negative pressure) was "secured" w/ nothing but aluminum tape. No collars inserted two inches deep. No stainless steel worm clamps. No screws to lock anything together. Just tape. On a system designed to work at high pressure. Airflows had all the product specs weeks beforeh&. They had every opportunity to install it correctly. They simply... didn't. Now I can't even close my ceiling because the ducts are likely to detach as soon as the fan runs. The flex duct wasn't even supported or strapped to the floor joists like it's supposed to be--just hanging there. That was the moment I realized this review was no longer optional. If your project involves airflow, pressure, safety, or anything above ground level, I strongly recommend looking elsewhere. Edit: Just to respond to what the owner said. They knew ahead of time that I would be using my own parts & the quote reflected that. They also had all of the specs for each item. On the day of installation, the only thing the tech pointed out was that the flex duct was porous & not fully sealed. I knew this, its acoustical flex duct meant to attenuate sound. As for not notifying them about the damage to the ceiling, they are totally right. It was about 2-3 weeks before I notified them, & that's because I didn't want to get the nice tech in trouble, & $300 wasn't enough for me to make a fuss. After multiple revelations, fixing the ceiling became a matter of principle.

    All the lint that was trapped in the duct!!

Tried to tune the furnace anyway to accommodate it, which was actually kind of fun to watch all the different ways it could be done. No other HVAC technician I've ever worked with before has done that. A/C maintenance went great too. First company I've ever hired that didn't try to sell me an entirely new unit just due to a faulty capacitor. Even gave me the model number of the capacitor to replace if I want to save money and do it myself (I'm reasonably handy so it's something I'd probably do). I'll be using them for as long as they give great service!

They said they could try to do a repair for about $1.3k but that they couldn't guarantee the repair would be effective because of the condenser. They then tried to sell me on their highest end heat-pump for about $24k, which was too much for our needs, since our furnace was also functional. We ended up choosing a basic AC replacement for around $9k. They were able to install the new unit two days later. However, on the day of the install, they saw some surface level rust on the furnace heat exchanger and tried to get me to replace it for an additional $4k. When I said no, they backed off and recommended a CO alarm (which we already have). It felt like I was being heavily taken advantage of because I was in a dire situation. The installation went fine, but my experience of being pressured and hard sold to during the process made it feel like I was being milked for every penny they could get out of me. Take this as a precaution to check your HVAC AC/furnace/heat pump regularly, and get multiple quotes before deciding on work. If you go with this company, they will seemingly do an effective job, but they will try their best to get as much money out of you as possible.

Then, earlier this August, the AC stopped working, and an All Temp tech came out to investigate. Below are the events that unfolded. Aug 5 - Tech comes to house and identifies part that needs to be replaced Aug 10 - Parts person at All Temp had not ordered part because he was unable to find the part number. My husband found the part number in about 5 minutes by looking at the manual for our machine online. After we provided the part number to All Temp, they finally ordered the part (which they said needed to be shipped from China) Aug 13 - I called the sales person who sold us our unit and asked him to help us because we had not received an update on when the part would be received despite calling numerous times. He looked into it and said they would order us a whole new compressor instead of just the individual part of the compressor, and that would be received in their office "soon." Aug 17 - I called the sales person again because we had not received an update. He said the compressor would be in soon. Aug 19 - Received a call from All Temp saying they received our compressor, and they would come and install it the next day. I told them we were out of town, but our neighbor would be there. Aug 20 - A tech came to install the compressor. We received a call when they were done and the AC was working, and we were asked to pay $1,690. This was the estimate quoted to us on Aug 19 when they said they had the part. Aug 22 - Our neighbor informed us when we got home that All Temp DID NOT INSTALL A COMPRESSOR! We called and asked them what they actually did and why we were charged $1,690. As of Aug 26th, they still have not provided an answer. All Temp 1) misdiagnosed the issue with the AC, needlessly causing us to be without AC for over 2 weeks while we waited for a part we didn't need and 2) charged us for services they didn't perform.

On my first visit, I observed behavior from staff, David, that struck me as sexist toward women. On a second visit, my assistant was present to meet with them, and staff were dismissive and rude to her -- they largely refused to engage with her directly. Even more troubling, they reported to our building's front desk that they "thought something weird was going on," which felt like an inappropriate and baseless insinuation with no basis in reality. In my opinion, this reflects a broader pattern of unprofessional and sexist conduct that reflects poorly on how this company treats women, whether customers or staff. I'd caution anyone considering hiring them, especially if you're a woman who will be interacting with their team directly.

We hired this company to install a radiant floor heating system and asked that it be integrated with Ecobee thermostats so one thermostat could control both the radiant heat and the air conditioning. Unfortunately, they were unable to make that work. After spending considerable time trying, we ultimately agreed to a compromise of using separate thermostats for the radiant heat and the AC. Although this wasn't the solution we originally wanted, we accepted it and paid the invoice in full. Initially, Jordan gave us the impression that he was knowledgeable, trustworthy, and would stand behind the company's work. I genuinely thought we had found an HVAC company we could rely on for years to come. Because the installation was completed outside of the cooling season, we couldn't fully test the air conditioning until the weather became warm enough to use it. When we finally turned on the AC, neither unit worked properly. Jordan came out and discovered that one Ecobee thermostat had been miswired. He corrected the wiring, and that unit began working. However, he could not determine why the second unit was not working. Before leaving, he told us he would return within a day or two to continue troubleshooting. It has now been more than a week. We have called the company's call center multiple times, and every time we are told our message will be forwarded and someone will call us back. Despite our repeated attempts, we have never received a callback or been able to schedule the promised follow-up visit. We even asked to speak with a manager or another owner, but were told that information could not be provided. What disappoints me most is not that there were installation issues--those can happen on any project. It's what happened afterward. Once the final payment was made, it became nearly impossible to get anyone to respond or honor the follow-up that was promised. A warranty only has value if a company responds when customers need service. I truly wanted this company to be our long-term HVAC contractor. Instead, based on my experience, I was left with an unresolved HVAC issue, repeated unanswered service requests, and the feeling that the level of customer support changed after payment was received. I hope they improve their communication and follow-through, but based on my experience, I cannot recommend them.
