Beaverton Heating and Cooling
It's NOT always just about the money! This company not only warmed up our home quickly, but also warmed up our hearts during a very difficult time!
Yes, people work to earn money, and businesses are operated to cover costs and make profit. Our mother often quoted this little verse from the Bible, "The laborer deserves his wages," when the topic of how much services cost came up.
Our very old furnace stopped working in the middle of a weekend night. We were already struggling through some unexpected expenses on top of my regular medical costs. I share my home with family, and there were three young children and a brand-new infant downstairs that would be waking to a very cold morning. I had just lost a week of work as my mother had passed away.
Many places wouldn't even be open on weekends, and those that were would probably be charging a higher weekend service fee just for coming out to inspect the furnace.
I called Right Now Beaverton Heating and Cooling. Jack, the owner, asked me some questions about the furnace, and then gently let me know it would be wise to start thinking about a new furnace soon (I believe the furnace to be close to 30 years old!). I briefly explained my current situation and how a new furnace was on our list to save up for. It sounded like the costs of the diagnostic visit and possible replacement parts/repairs would be more than I could pay at the time. I would have to save up and call him back when I had it saved. I thanked him for his time and all the information he had given me.
That's when Jack wished me a "Merry Christmas" and told me his partner, Glen, would be out soon to check the furnace over and do what they could to get us some heat!
Beaverton Heating and Cooling then gave us the most unexpected and most appreciated gift of the holiday season! Just a short time later Glen called to say he was on his way. The professionalism, knowledge and skill of this man were amazing. It was a tricky furnace and appeared to have been "jimmy-rigged" by a previous service company. It took him several hours and several parts to get the furnace going, but he did it! Then he allowed me to give him a hug and he, too, wished me a Merry Christmas and was on his way!
I will be saving up for a new furnace! It will take some time with our higher medical expenses, but it can be done. And I already know who I will be calling on for the purchase and installation of that new furnace ¬- Right Now Beaverton Heating and Cooling! read more
