    Mountain Heating & Cooling- Previously Mountain Plumbing- Installed my Water Heater in the fall of 2023 via my American Home Shield Warranty. I paid for a few parts out of pocket but it was a very reasonable/low number for a warranty replacement. AHS covers labor and the tank, and I pay for parts or permitting. The water heater spontaneously burned itself up in Feb '26. I requested AHS resend Mountain out because they did the original install. They come out Feb 2nd to evaluate. I ask the plumber to look at the toilet that I think is leaking as well. The next thing I know, he says "toilet is off, I can't replace it". Didn't warn me that the toilet would be removed and didn't check to make sure I had another. He disconnects the WH, said I need an electrician- scheduled to come out the next day. Electrician visited the next day. 2 day's later. I get the attached quote. Not only is it a blanket high dollar estimate that does not affect my situation at all, but the permit included was for HVAC permit services. I called the company and they refused to tailor the quote for my situation. I was told that Mountain Plumbing went under because they weren't charging people correctly. When I said I couldn't foot that bill for a warranty replacement. I was offered financing that was a higher interest rate then listed on their website. None of the terms matched. Because Mountain refused to fix the quote to reflect what would actually need to be done instead of a blanket install estimate, AHS would not proceed with the fix. I fought for 3 weeks with this stone hearted company. I called and requested to speak to the owner but he was recovering from surgery. Meanwhile, a single mom and her 2 small kids are without hot water for 3 weeks. That's not even the whole story. Mountain Heating & Cooling had an expired license for their plumbing permits when they performed work at my home. I spoke with L&I and they confirmed that a Plumbing license is separate from an HVAC license. I took screenshots and included the dates in the images. They were not legally allowed to work or provide bids while their license was suspended. Did they apologize? No. They argued and don't seem to know their own licensing requirements. Mountain also lied to AHS and said they were permitted the entire time, despite evidence they were not. Mountain treated me inhumanely and with disregard. They tried to extort money out of me because having hot water in winter months with small kids is essential. They created undue hardship and distress on my and my children's lives. They are not an honest company. I had several other plumbers come out to give me a quote and none of them quoted such an exorbitant fee for a warranty replacement. I did however received multiple notes regarding the previous install by Mountain where none of the piping to that tank, hosing, or earthquake straps were up to code/installed properly orginally. Mountain wanted to take advantage of me and tried to give me empty reasons to do a complete replacement of all those line items. If I didn't agree to the quote, no work would be done, but then Mountain would make me pay the amount I agreed to regardless of if those items needed to be replaced or not. Mountain used specific language to ensure AHS wouldn't cover these fees. AHS doesn't pay the normal rate of labor, so Mountain took this opportunity to try and squeeze it out of me. They called all items "Modifications" but AHS doesn't cover modifications, just installs and replacements. Mountain Heating & Cooling is deceitful and dishonest. I would take your business elsewhere. I definitely did.

    As far as I can tell, the business overall including the owner do NOT care to practice business ethically. It's been 2.5 years since this company sold my home warranty company (and us) a new furnace and heat pump, As our newly purchased house system was running on emergency heat to keep warm. Upon installing (and after getting our money) On the day of installation, the 2 young men sent to install the unit tell us that there is no main power line from the fuse box to our heat pump. So they put the new unit they installed on emergency heat, exactly the same position we were in before they sold us the unit. Now, I still don't know if this was an purposeful UDAP situation but their claim is that they didnt find it when they scoped the job. They either sold us a unit they knew would not fix our problem, or they missed it when scoping the job. Either way, the liability is on them. The office manager told us, "all we had to do was get the line ran", and they could come back out and finish the job they were paid for. We live VERY remote, so getting an electrician was impossible during covid, in addition to that, supply was an issue. After a year of being unable to secure an electrician, we spent 2 years learning how to run the line ourselves. During this time Mountain heating and air, ignored our calls, stopped responding to our pleas for help and the owner (who is a licensed electrician) who promised to assist us, never followed through. Call after call was ignored. Here we are 2.5 years later, in the same scenario, just a newer model, out thousands of dollars, and they finally stepped up and made an appointment to come out and fix it Dec 19th, but canceled via emIal with an attached invoice for $646.80 to do something they were already paid for 2.5 years ago. We have now hired a different professional to fire off the heat ppumpnow that the direct line is fixed and will be following up within all our legal rights the law allows for compensation and damages from Mountain Heating and Air. Shame on you Mountain Heating and Air for your deceitful and negligent business practices. 100% Do NOT recommend.

    They obviously completely ignored this ducting

    UPDATING TO FIVE STARS because Brett and Quintan came today and were AWESOME. They not only fixed…read morethe issues I originally posted with a 3* review, but also revisited what we had discussed back in March - fixed it, and found something new going on that we will fix soon. VERY happy now. Prior review: We hired Capitol Duct because they were the only company we called that used a scope (camera) to examine the ducts before cleaning. We should have gotten the ducts cleaned before installing an in-duct booster fan, but we didn't think of it, so we needed the cleaners to be extra careful with their rotating brushes in that area. They came out 3-2-26. [I deleted the rest of my review, but the photos can' be deleted - they show dirt that showed up on our filter 2 months later. Capitol Duct came out again right away and took care of everything. NOTE to others - if something goes wrong, call them before posting a bad review.]

    I hired Capitol Duct Cleaning to clean a dryer vent in April 2025. Fourteen months later, when the…read moredryer started malfunctioning, an appliance repair technician found the cause: a cleaning brush lodged in the duct. I don't know how or when the brush ended up there -- but I do know that a thorough duct cleaning should have found and removed it, and Capitol's did not. When I called to raise this, they denied any responsibility and offered excuses for why their air-hose method wouldn't have caught it -- while refusing to remove it now except as a new, separately paid job. Whatever the brush's origin, their original service demonstrably failed to clear the duct. I agreed to pay again anyway, just to get it resolved. I was told a manager would call me first to discuss it. No one called. I waited for the scheduled technician instead; no one showed. When I followed up, I learned the office had canceled the appointment without telling me. I rescheduled a third time, and to avoid any confusion, I emailed a photo of the brush along with the access details (about 10 feet in, no crawlspace) and asked them to confirm they could do the job at the agreed price. The email went unanswered. When I called, I was assured the office had seen it, reviewed the photo, and confirmed the job and price. Two weeks later, the technicians arrived -- 90 minutes early, before I was ready -- with no idea they were there to remove a stuck brush. After using about 15 minutes of my time, they concluded they couldn't remove it after all. I told them to leave and hired someone else. Across three separate appointments and every point of contact -- the initial cleaning a year ago, the manager callback, the scheduled visit, the confirmed job -- Capitol Duct Cleaning did not follow through on a single commitment it made. I won't use them again.

Owner Rohan, Brett (scheduler and service technician), and their entire crew were professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely cared about getting everything done right. Our installation turned out to have several unexpected challenges, but instead of taking shortcuts or treating them as problems for us to solve, they stayed with it, communicated clearly, and worked through every issue until everything met our expectations. The crew showed up when they said they would, kept the work areas clean, treated our home with respect, and paid attention to details throughout the installation. We always felt informed and never pressured. One year later, the system has worked flawlessly and has exceeded our expectations for comfort and performance. Since our installation, I've referred many friends and acquaintances to Best Choice Heating, and every person has reported back with 100% positive experiences. It's rare to find a company that combines technical expertise, excellent customer service, integrity, and follow-through this well. We would absolutely recommend Best Choice Heating to anyone looking for heating and air conditioning work in the Tacoma area.

Each time, the technician listened to the problems we were experiencing, correctly diagnosed the problem and repaired the unit. This last time, the technician was able to assure me there was no leakage problem and the alarm was an error. He did a through investigation. I have been very satisfied with the communication. Too often, a service provider is unwilling to take the time to talk to the customer (especially if the customer is a woman). We have purchased a Priority Plus membership because I anticipate on-going problems with this water heater. I trust the technicians who have provided services. Several services are available at a discount with the membership and I plan to use them.

While scheduling the appointment, I have just been told, that because I said, "I didn't think it's heating like it should" That I now have to make an appointment for a " repair technician" that will cost $100+ for the visit. I asked "well then what am I paying for monthly who comes out for the free maintenance appointment?!? and she said something like well that's the "maintenance and safety technician". The "free" appointment that I pay for every month is only for the once a year visit by the "maintenance and safety technician" and because I simply said I don't think t's working quite like it should" now I have to pay $100+ for this visit. What?!? SCAM SCAM SCAM SCAM!! Bait & SWITCH! I told her on the phone "OK, I take it back. Suddenly my heater is working beautifully. I need the free maintenance visit," she replied "well now that I've already said it wasn't working properly and it's been recorded, I have to pay the $100+ for the appointment. I became a total 'Karen' and asked to speak to someone on a higher level. I was furious!! She couldn't transfer me because it's a Saturday. She continued refusing to give me my standard free appointment (that I actually pay every month for). How does she know if the safety maintenance man can simply push a button and it starts to work better? She doesn't! SCAM!! SCAM!! SCAM!! SCAM!! Do NOT use this company! Do NOT buy a unit from this company! And absolutely do NOT pay monthly for there scam of the "free maintenance visit" THIS IS A CLASSIC, GREEDY COMPANY SCAM!!
