Note wires coming from unit. Should have been encased, tied with electrical tape instead.

NO. Just NO. We had the Heroes install 3 new units - all 3 evaporator and condenser coils (the indoor and outdoor units) in 2017. They warranty their work for 2 years - and for two years they Heroically avoided our calls. It was as if they recognized our phone numbers and would not answer. We had to resort to borrowing other people's phones to reach someone. Their main number doesn't even tell you who you're calling and you have to leave a message - except their mailbox was always full. We have had problems with all 3 units ever since they were installed, and not one of these Heroes could ever gave us a diagnosis that made any sense. We paid the Heroes $20,000 and they gave us an invoice that doesn't even remotely reflect what they did. It simply states that they installed two 3 ton units and one 4 ton. That's it. No model numbers, no itemization of materials, labor, etc. A Heroic oversimplification, bordering on fraud. It has been 2 years and my Hero warranty is up. Naturally, here we are in the middle of a heat wave and our AC is out - AGAIN. We've called in several other AC companies to evaluate the system and are just BEGINNING to learn how badly we screwed up hiring the Heroes. For instance: 1. Not one of the evaporator coils (indoor) are the same size as the condenser coils (outdoor). All the evaporator coils are a ton (and more!) larger than their corresponding condensers. Any Heroes want to tell me why this isn't a problem? 2. The Heroes did not flush / vacuum the existing copper tubing of the refrigerant system which used R22 freon. They simply added R410A, which has damaged two of the 3 units (and will likely eventually cause the 3rd unit to fail any day now). As I understand it, leaving residual R22 in the tubing causes the compressor to stick and eventually fail, among other things. It is also the most likely culprit for blockages in the copper tubing - all of which had to be replaced yesterday at a cost of $1,600 (and that's just one unit y'all). 3. These Heroes didn't seal the plenums, blowers or return ducts, leaving gaps of 1" in some places. This allows cold air to escape into the attic. It also allows the unit to pull in 120° air from the attic (instead of pulling in 75° air from the house). When outdoor temps are 95°, the BEST all three units can do is bring us down to 80° inside. 4. An aluminum gas line is sitting directly on the external casing of the furnace instead of running from a steel elbow pipe. Over time, friction caused by running the blower could wear a hole in that aluminum gas line, causing a gas leak in our attic. One of the Heroes also ran that same gas line so that it touched the furnace exhaust duct. This is just some of the major stuff we've learned so far. I'll come back here and update as we find out more (unless our lawyer decides that would be imprudent). Some of the minor stuff we've dealt with over the last two years warrants mentioning, but I'm out of room so I'll just say sloppy, careless, leaky, trashy, and shady. So in a word: NO. They don't just "happen" to be doing a big job right now where they can score you some AC units dirt cheap and it is not your lucky day. Skip these Heroes and keep looking.

whatever you do don't use this company! They were very prompt in coming the first time even showed up early. the next day they installed the new a/c and coil, while they were doing the install I noticed they were reusing the old copper pipes and on the paperwork is said they were installing new ones. when we brought it up they said it was a typo. we asked for a breakdown of the bill and they wouldnt give us one, the owner Tristan was even rude to use over text. Once they finished and left I noticed they had broken the ladder going into the attic, and just didn't bother to fix it. Two days later after the install, the Freon ran out, they sent someone out here to fix it and it was cool again for about a week and a half and now the Freon is empty again. Then they had the nerve to say we'll try to get somebody out as soon as we can instead of saying we'll have somebody come out there today to fix it.You would think it would be a priority since they didn't fix it last time. Overall I found that they were very shady. They don't care to make sure that their work is done correctly. Even once coming back out to fix it after two days of it being installed they still didn't fix the problem. Once they get paid, they don't care. they also removed the drip pan from underneath the coil so if the pipe ever backs up, it's gonna cause water damage on the ceiling.

My new AC , it works perfect.

I do not recommend. Poor customer service, never calls you back, no communication. Too busy to schedule promptly.

I was truly blown away by Tristan's honesty and saving me tons of money that the big AC companies wanted me to pay.

However, after checking our AC system and completing preventing maintenance for a really fair fee, Jason concluded that our AC system is in very good condition and it was more Thermostat wrong messaging than the AC system itself. My wife and I were extremely appreciated and happy Jason's professionalism as AC Technician and most of all for his/their honestly. I will definitely recommend this company to anyone, and I will hire them next time to check and do whatever maintenance in our AC system if needed. Thank you, Richmond's Air, for excellent service.

As a matter of fact there was a misunderstanding in the quote as I thought it included new ducts, but it did not. But James replaced for free due to the misunderstanding on my part. He did not have to do that because it was my mistake in communication. Prior to that I had 2 other hvac systems installed by another company. So I called that company that did the install to repair one. Within hours of repairing one hvac, the other failed. So I had to wait over the weekend for them to return to fix the hvac and on Monday my schedule. Then I decided to use Richmond Air for the repair. I only would be at my house from 8:30 to 10am due to a departing flight. I called Richmond Air at 7:30 AM on Monday to see if they could send someone to my house within the hour. The owner, James showed up with a staff member. So the other company's staff accidentally let out my Freon. James called the company and explained the mistake for me and arranged for them to replace my Freon for free. That is honestly and great customer service. He could have replaced the Freon and charged me, which is expensive and let me figure out the situation with the other company. So that deserves my business and yours. Trustworthy, competence and great pricing. I hope this review helps you select Richmond Air. I am confident you will be happy with the work and you will feel that you have gotten great value for the service.

He then proceeded to the roof (where the compressor is) and determined that the capacitor is bad (changed). He also said that there is a leak, as the Freon was empty. We had set the next day for his next visit to fill the system with Freon and add a dye (a leak detector), but did not show up after multiple calls. Got a different company for a recheck. The Freon was full, and there was a fuse removal/disconnect (in the control box next to the compressor) that was obviously done by Ruben (no one touched the system since the original installation). And guess what: the system fired up once the fuse was connected, and started cooling like a charm. In summary: Ruben obviously tampered with the power supply to make it look as if the system was dead. There was no need for take down of the coil cover to check for leaks, there was no leak, and the Freon was full. The guy is a liar and a fraud. Don't let him get close to your house. If there was an option for negative stars, I would give him - minus 10.
