He even considered aesthetics, which the others didn't. His price was fair, work was fast & result was wonderful! Now in 2024, I'm selling, and called him at the 11th hour in hopes he could do an inspection on a potential leak. He was fully booked, and at first said he couldn't but would call a colleague (totally unusual & over the top, in my experience). The colleague couldn't, but he came out & took care of it, anyway! On top of his quality work, great work ethic, he's a genuinely nice guy. I'd call him for everything heating & plumbing related!

Daniel stood hands above all other estimators in his consultation and he suggested relocation of furnace to crawl space after learning of our plans to remodel basement to free up valuable floor space for development. He also suggested zoned system to allow future tenant to control heat independently from main floor. Pricing was very competitive and working with the team was straightforward and professional. They showed up on time, consulted with us regularly on progress and left work area spotless. Daniel and team also worked closely with us throughout the install process to accommodate our needs to minimize any potential rework once our remodeling took place. End result is toasty home that is much more comfortable with more even heating at lower cost and we have an additional 100ft for our studio remodel. Thanks Daniel and Richard!

Elliott Air Systems did a phenomenal job with the installation of a new Carrier heat pump system in…read moreour home. They carefully removed the 80 year old gas furnace from the crawl space and patched all holes. They installed the air handler in the attic and carefully cut in all new vents in the ceiling. Duct runs in the tight attic space are installed with the highest level of care and craftsmanship. They were extremely diligent about managing dust and mess; the only sign that they had been in the house were the new vents in the ceiling. As an architect, I have the opportunity to work with a lot of different contractors. Based on the great experience I had working with them in my home, I highly recommend Elliot Air Systems to all of my clients. Great value, phenomenal work; EAS earned my highest recommendation.

This thing is like a rocket ship compared to our old heater and the guys busted their butts to get it right. From the start Alberto was super accommodating, straight forward, honest and nice. He's just a really nice guy! He took the time to listen to my objectives and had great recommendations for the right system that would work for our goals, our home and our budget. Once the proposal was approved, communication was good about calendaring and as the install date drew nearer they had all the equipment and hardware delivered to the house. No delays on account of supply chain issues, yay! Jorge and the installation team showed up when they said they would. They were pleasant to have around and communicated very well. Not only did they fearlessly crawl around in my basement and crawl space, they took the time to try and run the ducting in the cleanest way that would take up the fewest cubic feet of our precious's storage. Totally impressed. Good work!

Our previous maintenance visit was Sep 2022. After being dormant for the spring/summer months we were pleased to have the floor heaters start the first time. We plan to schedule a maintenance visit in the next few months. As another reviewer stated, it is challenging to find an experienced HVAC professional to competently repair and keep older equipment in running/safe condition.

Many companies will over size a system and the client will never be the wiser; only knowing that the heater/AC works, but not that energy and money is being wasted.

His prices are quite reasonable, especially knowing you are receiving the highest quality workmanship.

Next time I'm calling them first!…read more A wall heater in an ADU was having issues, pilot light issues. Ar first I reached out to a different company but I got a very high quote to repair it. I wanted a second opinion so I contacted Honrath & Stacey. They sent Joey and an assistant, and he said they could make the repairs using parts in the van. Total cost was 1/4 the repair cost quoted by the first guys and it took a little over an hour. H&S charges $189 for the visit, minimum. The first place charged $89. Draw your own conclusions, but I think $89 is a loss-leader price not reflective of actual costs. You get what you pay for
