    My home air conditioning unit stopped cooling the house. Superior heating and cooling was called. The technician showed up and in less than 5 minutes he knew the cause of the problem. A bad x-13 blower motor. Date was 05/13/2024. They changed me a total of $200. $60 for a service call and $140 hourly rate. And they wanted $350 additional for parts. Being a new homeowner. The company that installed the air conditioning unit new in 2020 came out and replaced the parts for nothing under warranty. I was charged an hourly rate for something that was never done and I was robbed of my money and the manager said that it was my own tuff luck that they dont refund anything. I spoke with another representative at supervisor heating and she said they would refund $140 to my credit card for them not providing any service. But that hasnt happened and now the office manager said they will not refund anything

    Superior Heating and cooling received a call for service on a down unit, a technician was dispatched to the call this customer is not a contract customer and was charged a 60 trip charge, due to the fact that our technician went to the home and Diagnosed the unit. The customer had another provider install the motor So we went ahead and refunded the customer for the 140 Diagnostic fee.

    Called Superior to have them check air conditioner because it was making a loud sound when shutting off. The air conditioner is under warranty. They told me that it was the compressor but that I would have to pay between $ ***** to ***** for the freon to be filled. I feel that because it is under warranty and it is manufacturer default that freon should be included. The air conditioner was installed in February, 2023. The company offered to put a blanket on, to reduce the sound. But my problem is that it is under warranty.

    In June of 2023, I was lured into a full air conditioner replacement by their statement that they take care of law enforcement and military personnel. 12 year parts warranty. Contract was signed and install date was scheduled in 4 days. We live in ** and had no functional air conditioning. Install day arrived and they canceled. A total of five scheduled dates were canceled. Delay after delay, excuse after excuse. Finally, after nearly 2 weeks of no shows, no calls, a/c was installed in July of 2023. We immediately had issues. Most recently, August of 2023, less than 2 months in, we had water running down our walls from a mini split head unit. We called Superior Air for service, appointment was set and no one shows. Call again, excuse after excuse, six appointments set, no shows, no calls. *** is sick. ***** is sick. Crew was too busy. Forgot to put you on schedule. No communication. No returned calls. Always someone elses fault. I reach out to *********** They report that Superior Air is NOT a Diamond Dealer and cannot take a formal complaint on them. I was advised to contact their distributor, Gemaire. Superior Air is Not a Diamond Dealer and can only offer a 10 year parts warranty. Thus, Superior Air was dishonest in their contract. Four weeks later, we still had water running down our walls and Superior Air only offers inferior service or no service at all. Superior Air does not take care of law enforcement or military personnel as promised. They say to call another company for repair and they will reimburse the cost. I am confident no reimbursement would ever arrive based on other reviews. I want Superior Air to provide repair service immediately and assess mold possibilities in wall after six weeks of requests. Continued delays and excuses. Lastly, I want a signed statement that 12 year parts warranty in contract will be honored.

    I entered into a multi year AC service contract summer of 2021 and includes a cancelation at anytime with a refund for the remaining unused term. I called them on 6/5/2023 and canceled my contract.I waited patiently 4 weeks. I called them the week of July 10th and spoke to ******** who reluctantly would look into it. When it didnt come in the mail the following week, I called back on July 21st, and again ******** said she would turn into accounting. So, still was not done. I called yesterday 7/28, I waited on hold, and then Was offered a call back, which never came. I should not have to wait over 8 weeks for my refund and have to beg for. This is poor business practice. My refund should be recognized as canceled back on 6/5/23. ******** would never confirm my refund amount which should be $300-$400. Please help!

    This business cold called (spammed) me, during my work day and disrupted me to try to telemarket their products in an unsolicited manner to someone who is not interested in their services. I am on the national do not call registry and this needs to be documented so that in the event of a future issue for others like me, the proper legal processes can be followed to ensure this company changes their business proceedings and learns their limitations on marketing in *****************. Stop. Calling. Me. And do not contact my parents or home phone either. Otherwise, legal action will be taken. This is your second and final warning.

    Service call on furnace not working 2-16-21. Their sticker was on my thermostat. Ticket number ******. They said it needed a pc board. When they pulled out the ignitor to check it, it snapped in half. They said they would replace it. Then was told maybe if the igniter is fixed its only that. Then came back several visits with the wrong ignitor. Never would return calls. Months would pass. I have a 10-2-21 ticket stating need 1 board and 1 ignitor ticket number ****** then states warranty. With a note saying have ignitor to bring to supply house to get the right one. The office manager thought the service manager took care of it. He did not. Im a surgical assistant. Im always in surgery, Im not allowed to make personal calls so months pass again. Then they would come out, wrong part again. Now it is November 2022. I cant even tell you how many times they have come with the wrong part telling me they would call me when the part comes in and they dont. So I call. Then set up a Saturday appt. No show. Then I call set up the next Saturday. He says, there is a bracket I need. I will call you Monday and let you know when I can do this. Mind you they send their best guy and he promises to see it through because it has been a year and half with nothing. He doesnt call me back but he gives me his work cell phone number. I send him a test 2 weeks later no response. Today I leave him a message to let him know Im off 2 days and nothing. I call the office and Im given excuses of him having medical problems of which he already had that I knew about. But he still is working so no excuses. I explain this is almost 2 years old and I want my heater fixed. The office manager tells me that I havent paid anything so. I said of course not, nothing is fixed and your guy broke my ignitor to begin with when how he was going to do was check the ignitor. Then the general manager got on the phone and said he spoke to the owner and said for me to find another company for service

    The customer called us because she had no Heat we sent a service guy out to the home on 2-8-21 on this date our tech quoted the customer on a new unit because the unit is not under warranty she didnt buy the unit, he also quoted her on a repair for the ** BOARD & IGNITOR for 675. the customer did pay a 60 service call fee for us to go to the home as she does not have a maintenance agreement with us, the prior home owner did buy the unit from our company and we had not been to this property since 2017 ************ bought the condo in 2020 the unit comes with a 5 year manufactory warranty to the second owner. meaning that unit had no warranty on the unit when she bought the condo, we did try to find the part for the customer and came out the first time and found the supplier gave us the wrong part. we did try to search for the part for the customer, how ever we have not been paid for our MULTIPLE service calls or the part the customer paid 60 for the service call for us to Diagnose the issue. The customer called today we informed her she needed to find another company after she informed me that we have done nothing for her and we broke the heater,

    I am rejecting this response because: this is a lie. I did not say they broke my heater as explained in the letter. They broke the ignitor. Big difference. Also, the reason I did not pay for a service call is because they did not perform a service. They never had the right part or one time broke one of them when they were here. Btw, they offered to do the work for free but they never completed one thing. Every single time they were here there was a reason why it couldnt be fixed, wrong one one ordered, wrong one was sent, the one that was sent broke, they didnt have a bracket. Never once did I say I would not pay them, not once. I even got a credit card their company offered to pay them. I can prove that if need be. They are incompetent and poor customer service and communication and lying about me now. I never accused them of breaking my heater, only the ignitor. Its a $20-30 part. Shouldnt be a big deal but almost 2 years later they want to drop me because they cant get it right. I will not accept this. 

    Sincerely,

    In March of 2022 we purchased and had installed an air conditioner with purifier from Superior Heating and Cooling in ********. We paid $8200.00 cash and it was to include joining ************ to the existing system. We were preparing to leave the state and were told that the materials to finish the sun room weren't currently available but they would finish the job as soon as they were. I left them with the name and phone number of a contact person who would allow them access to the property so they could work. By ******** had heard nothing from Superior so I called to inquire when the job would be finished. Was told they would schedule it. Called in September, same answer but no work had been done. Called when we arrived in ******* the beginning of October and asked that they finish the sun room since we were now back. Told them we would manage our schedule to accommodate their schedule to finish the work. Long story short, I called and was given an installation date 4 different times and there was no show, no call explaining why or rescheduling. I sent email to email address listed on one of their web sites. It never went through, not a functioning address. Found another web site with a different email address. No longer good. After speaking with ****, the scheduler so many times with no result I am asking BBB for help. This is a room in my house that is unusable because of fluctuating temperatures. $8200.00 was a lot of money for an incomplete job.
