This company installed a 15k complete heating and cooling system right before winter. Installed the smart thermostat incorrectly. Had to come and rewire. Summer came. My house was not cooling so I called him back out. He stated I no freon in my until and had a leak. Unit wasn't even 4 months old. He put freon in it and no further problems. He offered to check for leak for a additional 400.00. I reached out to another HVAC provider and stated there was no leak. Freon was never put in during the installation. I called my bank to stop payment on the check for fraudulent work charges but the bank said it was to late. 3 months later he came banging on my door for payment for the 300.00 check that didn't clear. I called and filed a police for being charged for something that should have been done doing the installation and then trying to charge me for a leak that not there. He sent me several text belittling me for wanting free services and calling me a bad Christian because im not allowing him to get over on me. Police took all the information and said it's a civil case so I will just wait to tell the judge my reluctant too pay twice. The police wrote it up as fraudulent. No brand new unit leak freon in 3 months unless it was never put in from the beginning since it was winter. He knew he would have another service call from me. Now who's the bad Christian read more

My home warranty sent Malherek to fix a problem with my furnace. My warranty company connected me with Darryl. He said that it would probably be tomorrow before he could get to me, but if he got finished early, he would come today. He finished early and called to say he was on the way. He went right to work, found the problem, cleaned the burners, and got the problem fixed in less than 2 hours. Darryl was very polite and efficient. He knew what had to be done and he did it. I was very happy with the work that was done. He said to call him if I had any more problems. I will! I recommend Malherek to anyone with furnace problems. read more

I typically don't write reviews, but I thought this needed to be brought to light. Through a home warranty, Daryl with Malherek Heating & Cooling had installed a new air handler for my family back in March / April of 2023. He did a good job and we were happy with the result. Happy enough to request his company through the home warranty when we had an issue with our outside heat pump which works in tandem with the air handler. At that point we were without heat in the house. The claim was put in on 12/5/2023 and Dary was out a couple of days later to look at it. All he really did was turn the air handler over to emergency heat and told me that he would have to work with the heat pump manufacturer's tech support to troubleshoot. He was scheduled to be back out on 12/12/2023. Day of that appointment, he cancelled last minute. From that point, I received no communication from Daryl. I called and texted him at least 6 - 8 times and nothing. I finally contacted the home warranty company again on 1/3/2024. They were able to get a hold of him within 10 minutes. They requested additional information from him on the diagnosis. He told them that he would have something for them by 1/5/2024. Nothing had been updated by 1/8/2024. I reached out to the home warranty company again and they contacted Daryl. During the call, he tells them that he does not know how to work on the outside unit and would not be able to continue with the service request. Something he could have told me or my home warranty company on the initial consult. Keep in mind that a whole entire month has gone by without a change in the status of the job that Daryl was hired to do. What makes me sad about this whole thing is that I like Daryl. He's a nice man and very personable, but the lack of communication was unacceptable. My family of six will struggle this month due to a huge electric bill and only because Daryl didn't have the courtesy to respond to his customer on a job he was hired to do. For those who are looking through the reviews and trying to make a decision about Malherek Heating & Cooling, keep digging. I'm not the only customer Daryl has left in this state of limbo. read more

If you want a Christian, a kind man who won't rip you off it is Malherek. He has been to my house at least 4 times for heating and cooling issues. He has been to my daughter's houses multiple times. Whatever he says will be the truth. If you don't call him you're just taking your chances on getting ripped off. I see where Tyler V. posted something bad on here, but Mr. Malherek doesn't do home warranties and he doesn't work in San Francisco either. Tyler V is just a little messed up. read more

Prompt. Fair. July in St. Louis area is brutal. Along with heat indexes above 104. Combined with high humidity and storms that cause power loss and brown outs. HVAC units take a beating. Of course the day after a holiday our A.C. Quit working. I called Malherek early in A.M. they returned my call before they opened and a technician arrived promptly that morning to repair. It was fixed before lunch (and the major heat warning). The price was fair. I will also be setting up a standard maintenance appointment with this company. As the prompt service and reasonable pricing are qualities I look for in service companies. Very pleased with this company and the technician who came out. read more

Malherek Heating & Cooling - :) - Heating & Air Conditioning/HVAC Near Me

Darrly and Jonathon did a great job. Had a lot of issues dealing with our home warranty company and they made the entire job much easier.

This guy came out after the home warranty place told us to use him. He did minimal work to fix the AC unit and told us the compressor was bad. The told the home warranty it hadn't worked in months causing them not to cover the replacement cost. I had another company come take a look and fix the unit in under a hour. read more

When I spoke to someone at Malherek's Heating & Cooling, an appointment was set between 10 am and 2 pm the following day to repair my air conditioner. At 1:40pm the next day, I decided to call the company because no one had arrived and I had not heard from any service person. No one answered, so I left a message and waited. At 2:10pm, I called again and this time the service person answered the phone. After explaining who I was and why I was calling, his rely was, "Umm... I guess I should have called you earlier. There's been a lot of rain so things are running behind. I'm not gonna make it out there anytime soon." I told him I would find a different company and that this was completely unacceptable. The weather forecast predicted rain that entire week and that excuse did not validate the fact that no one from the company bothered to contact me at any point. I waited around for over 4 hours when I had many other things to be doing and lost an additional day of renovation on the house because it was too hot and humid for painting to continue. I contacted a different company (Cool Heat Plus) and they showed up promptly at 8:30 am the next morning. read more

We were assigned this company to fix one of our heat pumps. They were prompt to show up and assess the issue, a broken heat pump. This was in the middle of June. On the 19th of June the owner showed up with his "work force" (his children) and successfully removed the bad heat pump. Then work stopped. He told my wife and I the home warranty company sent him the wrong unit (upon speaking with the home warranty company, we learned he ordered the wrong one...it gets worse). On the 23rd of June he requested the correct unit and it arrived in his hands the next day. Here we are, the 3rd of July with no progress...he doesn't return calls unless the home warranty company tells him to. The other issue is his requirement of a crane to lift the new unit. He removed the old one with rope and a ladder. His newest excuse is no one has had a crane available, but when I call the equipment rental places, they all have had lifts available. He eventually showed up with a lift...a Grove TMS500e (40 ton crane for a 300lb heat pump...overkill?!?!). He's gone again and we still have nothing to go on because as I watched him, his daughter, and the crane operator try to figure out what to do they looked at me through the window then left. No attempt to tell me to my face what was going on and no phone call...again no phone call. Do your self a favor and NEVER call this guy. And if you do,don't expect a return phone call. I have proof from phone records and recorded conversations with the home warranty company if there is any dispute. read more
