CASI Heating & Cooling

I would like to preface my feedback by stating that I generally do not leave either positive or negative comments on the Internet and respect the right for all businesses to earn a profit. However, I felt compelled leave feedback in the case of CASI Air and Water because I have never felt quite so disrespected before and am rather shocked and appalled by their lack of transparency and professionalism...

As part of their duct cleaning services, they offered my mother (who is a widow) free furnace filter inspection/replacement for three years. As such, she was notified by the company this week that they would perform their annual inspection today at no cost. The Service Technician who I later discovered is the Owner of the company, was about one hour late which I completely understand since it is a busy time of year. Upon his arrival, he proceeded to remove the old furnace filter and informed us that he would return later in the evening with a new furnace filter. After not hearing back from him for several hours (three hours to be exact), I had to contact the office around 7pm to let them know that we were still waiting for a new furnace filter replacement. The same Service Technician/Owner eventually showed up at around 10pm that same evening and proceeded to bill my mother for the new furnace filter which cost $60.00. Needless to say that not only was she surprised by the cost but also quite hurt because she felt that she had been misled and taken advantage of as a senior citizen...

When I called the Service Technical/Owner on his cell phone on her behalf to simply query the billing around 10:30pm that same evening, I was treated rather rudely (not only did he complain to me about his long and difficult day, he also stated repeatedly that he had the right as a business owner to charge my mother for the new filter so that he could make an $8.00 profit on a $52.00 furnace filter). After hearing him explain his side of things which included the use of colorful language (profanity) for approximately 10 minutes or so, he finally relented and told me that he would refund the money that evening if I texted him my email address as he said he needed that information before he could send me the refund. Not only did I text him the requested information immediately, I also sent him an email with the requested information just to be safe. Unfortunately, as of the time of this post, I have yet to receive any refund which I must admit, is extremely disappointing because the Service Technician/Owner did promise to refund the money that evening if I texted him my email address...

I would like to add that during our phone conversation, I remained quite cordial and open to his explanation of things because I try to respect everyone at all times. However, the Service Technician/Owner accused me of basically "wanting something for free" and actually, hung up the phone during our conversation which again, was quite rude and inappropriate since I was completely respectful and courteous towards him. When I called him back a few seconds later, he again reiterated his promise to refund the money and then abruptly concluded our phone conversation by informing me that my mother and I were "dead to him" and that we should "go find another company" to handle our affairs which I honestly felt was uncalled for and in extremely poor taste because I do not believe that my mother and I did anything to justify such verbal abuse and open hostility. Moreover, I am simply appalled by the lack of respect and professionalism exhibited by the Service Technician/Owner and would strongly encourage anyone considering using this company to look elsewhere because, as previously mentioned throughout this post, they appear to be quite dishonest and rather unprofessional particularly when it comes to addressing sincere concerns raised by customers...
The Business Owner Replied:

I would like to provide an update on my review as I contacted an employee of the company (Devon) first thing the next morning who was very understanding and granted my request for a full refund... As such, I would to extend my sincere appreciation to Devon for all her assistance...

We had a furnace and AC scheduled but cancelled the project well before the latest acceptable cancellation date. The $5198 down payment we were promised would be refunded, was never received. Phone calls didn't help. There was always some excuse or other why we couldn't have the money just yet, and now, two years later, we still don't have our money. My advice: don't deal with this company.
The Business Owner Replied:

Hi there, If you can please email casicleanair@gmail.com with any concerns of possible monies owed to you, we will have management look into it right away. Thank you

I am not one bit pleased with this company. I have complained about the dirty crpet they left. I am always promised they will have it cleaned and after about 4 years, it is still dirty. People, please be aware of CASI. I wish I had never allowed them to enter my home.
The Business Owner Replied:

Hi William. Your file has been in review for over a month now. We are trying to honor the work that someone else did 2 years ago. The reason it has taken some time in review is because we are not understanding what the stain is from, and how it was made on the bottom of your stairs, when the gentleman are generally by the furnace or upstairs doing the vents. This happened 2 years ago according to our records, not 4. We do apologize no one has got back to you, but please know that this is in review by upper management to try and get it cleaned professionally for you if management accepts that it was from the duct cleaners as it was not noticed until a few days after our cleaning occurred.

Casi installed the wrong size furnace and air conditioner 3 years ago. There have been many techs show up, each one fiddling with parts in an attempt to make it work anyway. Several of these techs verified the units are too small. The last Tech told me that because of all the changes they made in attempt to make it work, my furnace unit is not efficient any more. This is evidenced by London Hydro because I had to pay an additional 300 over budget, from the period of September to March of this year. The owner even came over to look at it and told me all would be resolved by Christmas. Now they will not answer my phone calls. I wrote to them twice and have not receive a response. Also the 10 year warranty they gave me is no good because they did not register the units with American Standard. American Standard told me they do not do anything with one of their suppliers. So I am suck with units that run nonstop and do not reach their temperature.
The Business Owner Replied:

Hi Carol, We have had 2 service technicians over to your home who have both stated it is regarding your venting within the home. The issue was with the air conditioning and nothing has ever been mentioned by you regarding your furnace having an issue. A lot of our past employees were giving customers false information, which is why they are no longer with our company. Our senior technician who has been with the company for many years was the one to define that it is is due to venting. Since it was the A/C issue, there was nothing we were able to do until it is A/C season which has fallen upon us within the past few days. If it was in regards to your furnace not working properly we would have dealt with it immediately of course as it was just winter. We will have a service technician to your home once again by the end of next week, being May 17th. We will assure to have your units operating at optimal efficiency for you. Thanks!

I installed the top notch furnace (fully automatic) with a humidifier a year ago and am fully satisfied. Now I am installing a tankless heater plus the coil for the antimold inside the furnace. I am convince it's the right thing to do.
The Business Owner Replied:

Thank you for the 5 star review! We recommend the UV light for above the coil to kill virus, bacteria and much more! Everyone is switching to the Navien Tankless, it is a great decision.

The Business Owner Replied:

Hi Doug, After speaking with you on the phone this morning I had called energuy, and you are not supposed to get your cheque until the beginning of December from Union Gas. CASI has done everything needed, and from here on is the wait for Union Gas to process your file. If there is still an issue with the installation, please call 5196462274 and we will have a gas technician out there within 48 hours. Thank you!

I was very happy in the beginning with this company. Not so much now. They were very quick to put the furnace and air in. Had to come back because they connected the outside vent wrong. Then they did not have the right filter for the unit so they had to use ours until one came in. Then they said they would come back when it got warmer to charge the air. Well we called because they did not. We had that hot weather brand new air conditioner and we could not use it. We called and asked when they were coming. They said oh you have to make an appointment. Made appointment. They did not come. We called again. Set another appointment. No show. Called them they said we did not have an appointment for us. Really? So we called again. We will see if they show tomorrow.
The Business Owner Replied:

Mrs.Cogghe, We do understand your frustration.. but unfortunately we are trying our very hardest. We have been slightly understaffed, and are recruiting more help to take care of our customers properly. I personally have spoke with your husband multiple times, and I hope it has shown that I am trying to get your A/C started.. unfortunately with gentleman calling in sick and having family emergencies it becomes tough. I had promised Mr.Cogghe that the air will be working today, so please expect the 20 minutes heads up call from our technician Arthur! Thank you, Shyla

Today a young man named Derek came to do a final inspection of our new furnace, he was very thorough, very knowledgable and very polite, explained everything in depth so we understood. We have experienced high pressure sales from 2 other CASI employees who will never be inside our home again. It's good to know there are still good people working at CASI of which Derek is definately one.
The Business Owner Replied:

Kathleen, We are pleased to hear that you had a great experience with Derek! We will pass on these kind words to him, and we can assure in the system that he comes to your house from here on! Thank you for being a valued customer of ours.

We installed a new furnace, air conditioner and water heater last summer with this company. We very much regret the decision. The equipment they installed is fine (besides the mess left after the install, failure to remove the water heater they said they would, the inspector coming and commenting to the many errors made on installation) but beyond frustrating is the failure to return calls, the mis-information we have received and not to mention the thousands in rebates they guarantee that now 10 months later we have not seen a penny of. I would advise everyone to not allow the duct cleaning service they offer into your home and be prepared that even just a filter change will result in HIGH PRESSURE sales of everything else you "need" to get.
The Business Owner Replied:

Danielle, I just spoke with your partner and explained the situation and how we are going to fix the "High Pressure" feeling. As I explained to Jon, our service gentleman are trained to go over the customers needs and analysis to assure we keep them as comfortable as possible. I have noted in the file to only contact you once a year, and any other service you need to call in for! I asked your husband to call Union Gas, because the rebate money does not come from us so it is not our error that you have not received this, but on March 5th I did inquire to the auditor for you and did forward those emails to you. I provided your husband with my personal phone number, so that if you have any further questions you can call me even off work hours. Thank you, Shyla

The people in this company are very friendly, but they aren't very organized. When the furnace was due to be installed in December nobody showed up for the initial appointment. The next day they called to rebook it for the following day. Now it's May and we are still waiting for our air to be installed. I called to make an appointment on Tuesday May 1st, someone called me on Thursday morning and said they would be there between 12-2 the next day to hook it up, but probably closer to 2. A guy showed up to go over the 10 year warranty (which I had already done), but he had no idea about hooking up the air. I called them back and they said how sorry they were about the misunderstanding, and they would try to have someone give me a call next week hopefully to make an appointment to install the air. Again.. very nice people, very disorganized when it comes to getting things done. We will see if they actually follow up with the call next week.
The Business Owner Replied:

Donna We try our absolute best too keep organized and all our customers pleased. The reason we would have re-scheduled your installation date is due to no heat emergencies. When a customer calls in because they have no heat and need a new furnace, this of course takes precedence over someone who does have heat in their home. The AC is installed, but the reason it is not working, is the weather needs to be above 18* C for us to charge it, which is not attainable in December. The reason we had to post-pone the AC charge on Thursday was due to the weather not being on our side. In your area, it was raining all day and we are unable to complete our job correctly in the rain. A message was left on your phone yesterday with enough notice informing you we are unable to make it. We do apologize for any inconvenience, but you are one of the top 10 customers getting their AC charged first.

Beware of these folks!! Recently they came out to my mother's home for an annual inspection of the furnace. The service tech noticed a rust hole in the outer shell of the rental water heater (the inner vessel was fine). He went into a scare tactic sales pitch stating the the water heater was ready to burst and proceeded to push a $4000 tank-less replacement that she didn't need. Extremely disappointed they tried to take advantage.
The Business Owner Replied:

Mr. Willard: WE take rust holes in water heaters seriously. This can lead to a serious situation in your home. The fact is your mother did need a replacement for her tank. We provided her with many options and the tank we recommended is the most efficient and provides her with a rebate. We did not take advantage of her with any scare tactics. Please contact us directly if you wish to meet and review our sales system and the excellent way we treat all customers.

2 years ago Casi cleaned our ducts Great job!! We also bought a uv light system for $1000 good investment. But the trouble is with the sales person. My wife has alzhelmer's so she does not realize everything going on. She should not be taken advantage of. Six months ago a sles person from Casi showed up to inspect our furnace. We RENT the furnace from Reliance. The sales person tried to sell a $3000 filter system I said we RENT and do not want the system. Last week sale person showed up again to check our RENTED furnace I was out for about a hour, He said the humitifier was leaking and made a work order for repair which my wife signed and put down a deposit, Cost $676.87 He was gone when I got back I phoned and cancelled the work. We RENT the furnace I called Reliiance for the repair. It was a loose hose clamp service man in and out 15 minutes. Cost no charge Casi for same cost $676.87. My wife put down a deposit I called 4 times still no refund. I feel that the sales person took advanage of a person with ALZHELMER,s that is not playing fair, Serviceis great Beware of the sales. They do not play nice get a second opinion for work!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Business Owner Replied:

Hi Mr.Cater, We do apologize that you have not had the experience we had hoped for. When a case of Alzheimer's is known to the company, it is always put directly into the system. When all service calls are scheduled, that department is trained to assure both home owners will be present to avoid any missed questions or problems. In the system, we have that you were scheduled for a ventilation inspection as you had the ducts cleaned which was stated above. If the furnace is rented by another company we will not service it, but as we did clean it he would have been checking the cleanliness of the unit to assure optimal performance. Regarding the humidifier, the service technician would have recommended the purchase of a new unit with no obligation to buy or sign as usual. The cost of 676.87 was not for the service of the humidifier, yet it was for a brand new unit itself which is sold for 899 plus tax. Being a preferred customer, you were receiving a significant discount. I spoke with accounting and was assured a cheque was sent out of the deposit your wife had made, which is totaling $35.00. We have put into the system that your wife has Alzheimer's and service calls will no longer be scheduled with her, but only with yourself. If you do need confirmation that this has been completed you can call in directly to the main line and provide your email, as well if you would like the cheque number that is available to you as well. We once again apologize for your experience.

had first apt scheduled march 27, 2018..They cancelled due to truck breakdown, no worriesd, rescheduled for following Monday at 3 pm.. Technician called at 11 45, they were ahead of schedule, wanted to clean my ducts at that time. Explained I rearranged my work schedule so that I could be home for 3. Thwy told me it was not worth the wait to stick around in town for 3 hours, so they cancelled the appt. I phoned office, spoke to Melissa who was very courteous, however no attempt was made by management to contact me, still waiting for this call to a very unprofessional work ethic...
The Business Owner Replied:

We did contact Joe and set an appointment on April 2/18. The truck was not able to attend due to jobs that were delayed. We did let Joe know of the change. He did not want to schedule another appointment. We try to keep to schedules but delays do happen that are not the companies delay-people are late at appointments and some homes take longer to complete the work.

What started as a very cold Saturday morning turned into a good thing!!! My furnace had "died" and CASI had an emergency number to call. I planned on replacing the furnace this year and add an A/C unit...but was hoping to wait until May. They were able to get the heat going BUT the furnace might not make it. Ed from CASI came out to explain in detail the rebates available...as well as answer questions. We've gone ahead and installed the furnace, A/C and hot water tank (no more rent). The energy auditor was out today and once I have the second item installed and audited...I can expect the rebate cheques. I wanted to say a huge THANK YOU to Ed, Abe, Ryan, Joseph, Jason, Pete and Shyla!! You exceed the qualities I value including knowledge, expertise, professionalism and customer service. YOU'RE AWESOME AND AGAIN MY SINCERE THANKS!!!

New furnace installed in October and as of 10/09/2018 furnace still not working properly. Ownership deletes my poor reviews. Another service tech was promised to be here first thing in morning again and it is now almost 2 pm and no show. They have tried to explain the problem but 2 months into repairs it still doesn't work properly. NO NOT LET THESE PEOPLE IN YOUR HOME. THIS IS MY 3RD BAD REVIEW BUT STILL NO HELP!!!!!
