Update: The owner…read moredid respond to my emails and calls. Apparently, it was a system error. I'm glad the issue was resolved. I did have to call and email multiple times to have the issue resolved, but it was resolved. Hopefully others have a more positive experience with this company than we did: They came to our home in May 2024 for AC "tune up" for the season. I was told that the system was in great order by the tech and supervisor with him. They charged me for the service: $169. That very same day the motor on our condenser failed. The part was under warranty, luckily; although they tried to charge me for the part, until I reminded the billing department I looked up the warranty myself. They did charge for the labor (169 again)-- despite the motor failure occurring the day they tuned up the system. November of 2024, we realized the Honeywell control board for our heating system had failed. Our system was about five years old at that point. Schulz techs replaced that part and charged us 455 for the service, which we paid shortly after receiving the bill. We paid using their online payment system on 11/17/2024 and payment processed 11/18/24. Eight months after they replaced the control board and we paid for the service, they sent another invoice for that same part from 11/2024 for 296 dollars. The original bill was for parts and labor. We found a far better company to use. We will not use Schulz again. Luckily my husband has his credit card statement and invoice to show we paid previously. Maybe just an error, but it isn't the first issue with this company.

I have used them for almost 10 years for my apartment building with generally good results, but…read moretheir latest behavior is just disgusting. Their employee apparently quoted me too low a price, for a service I would not want at a higher price. After it was done (badly) they tried to collect 3x the quoted price, and the owner actually accused me of lying about the quote. I don't need to deal with people who treat their good customers so badly.

Half never got back to me, the others gave me prices all over the map. I chose Chilli Willie for a handful of reasons: 1. They got back to me immediately, made an appt, and showed up on time. 2. They weren't the cheapest nor the most expensive. They clearly explained what needed to be done and quoted a fair price. 3. Their staffpeople were AWESOME, super-respectful about wearing masks, taking care of the premises, and always being on-time. After they installed it, they stayed in touch, came back to inspect the boiler, and gave me maintenance instructions. And lastly, Steve and Jared, the owners, are just plain nice people.

As someone previously in the home energy and sustainability field, I get asked often about our heat…read morepumps and I am constantly telling people to avoid this company. NE Ductless installed our heat pumps in 2021 and it's been one problem after another. Our air handler was faulty from the beginning and needed to be replaced immediately, they were not responsive to requests to inspect the system two years later and troubleshoot why it wasn't able to keep up in the winter months, and we subsequently had a subpar service visit from them. I knew I was really done with them when I identified that they used a product in my install that is prone to corrosion and refrigerant leaks, and they refused to do anything unless/until a leak occurs. Now, I've had a major leak into my bedroom from the air handler and it was discovered that there were several things NE Ductless did incorrectly during the install that caused the leak (including an improper joint transition in the drainage line that was kinked and caused the system to back up, drainage parts that hadn't been installed, and a drain pan that was noticeably pitched instead of level as it should have been). The company who came to fix it was really shocked at how poor of an installation it was, and of course these things were not noticed when they came for service less than 2 years prior. When I let NE Ductless know, I got a defensive email back. This company does not stand by its work and its customer service is atrocious. Run, don't walk.

I rarely leave negative reviews, but this experience warrants one so others can make an informed…read moredecision. Boston Standard sold and installed a brand-new heat pump HVAC system for my home, representing that it was properly sized and appropriate for the unit. The installation itself appeared to go smoothly, and cooling worked as expected through the summer and fall. However, once winter temperatures arrived, the system failed to perform. For 16 consecutive days, my family was unable to get our home above 63°F, despite repeated assurances that the issue had been resolved. Our infants slept in sweatshirts and we relied on space heaters during that period. Over those 16 days, Boston Standard made five separate service visits, each time diagnosing a different root cause: - First guy reset the system then told me it was working like normal - Then, second guy diagnosed an electrical/wiring issue and said that was fixed - Third visit was improper airflow causing the gas to blow out - Fourth was faulty sensors and a replacement control board - Finally, they resolved after troubleshooting live with the manufacturers support where they had to rig the control board wiring in a confusing way  Throughout this process, communication was inconsistent. At various points I was told parts were needed, then that they were not. I was repeatedly told the system was "fixed" when it clearly was not. Escalation was difficult, and it took multiple attempts over several days to reach a service manager Joe Trainito. The most troubling part is not that there was an issue, but that Boston Standard did not fully understand how to install or configure the system they sold me. From a homeowner's perspective, it felt like troubleshooting & training was being done live on my house, at my family's expense. Several people at the company acknowledged that they were having widespread issues with these new installs. When I asked what they would do to make this right, the primary offer was a 10% warranty extension, which was not meaningful after a prolonged failure. A request for a partial refund was met with an offer of $1,000, less than 4% of the total project cost, despite the system being unusable for heat for a significant portion of the winter. This was a full, ground-up HVAC replacement that should have been correctly designed, installed, and supported in the first place. Unfortunately, the experience fell far short of that standard. I cannot recommend Boston Standard based on reliability, execution, or post-installation support and will not be using them again.

Phenomenal. I…read moreordered my ACs and wanted to bump up the installation date because it started to get unseasonably warm in the city and they were able to accommodate. Jim and his guy arrived right within the delivery window Jim specified and he called (then texted when I missed his call which was much appreciated) to let me know their ETA. When they arrived and found that one of the units didn't fit in the window, they had another one in the van that they were able swap it out with instead. I appreciated that they were ready to handle issues like this without it resulting in a second trip. Because the unit that would fit in the window was smaller than the one I ordered, there was of course a price difference in what I paid for vs. what was being installed and Jim let me know he'd be refund the difference without my asking. That spoke volumes about his business' ethics to me. Worth mentioning: Also without my asking, I noticed Jim removed his shoes when he was installing an AC unit in my bedroom (probably because he saw I was barefoot). I thought that was incredibly considerate and as someone who never writes reviews, that is the reason I'm writing this review. Really professional service, the units are super clean, and all-in-all, the whole process from booking to installation was a seamless experience. Definitely don't hesitate to book with these guys, it's worth every penny.
