MRS Heating & Cooling

Kara R.

I've waited several weeks to post this review as I've been hoping that MRS would make this situation right. My family has been MRS customers as long as I can remember. My father even owned his own business for about 25 years before selling to someone and he used MRS for his business. Unfortunately, it seems they are getting too big for their britches and don't care about the customer anymore. They seem to care about how much money they can drain from your bank account. Our furnace has gone out over and over again this winter. Luckily, we have a gas fireplace, so the first 2 or 3 times it went out (all on a Friday or Saturday of course) we just switched that on and we were fine. We still wanted our furnace fixed of course, so we called MRS.

Jeff Nation came the first time and worked on our furnace. We've had Jeff before. We like Jeff. Unfortunately, Jeff doesn't own the place. He replaced a part and did some work. We paid $80 for the service call and about $250 for repairs.

The second time, when our heat did the same exact thing, he came again. We got charged another $80 for a service call and were told it was our filters. They were too dirty and caused the furnace to overheat. As soon as he left I looked at my husband and said - There's no way it's just the filters. It hasn't been THAT long since we changed them and that's never happened before and I told him I expected to be calling them back again soon for the same exact thing... which is exactly what happened.

But this time, I insisted on knowing wether we would be charged yet another service call. The lady in the office said it depends on wether it's for the same problem or not. Well thing is, I say, I don't believe for one second it was the filters last time and our furnace is still doing the same thing it was doing before you guys came the first two times. So yeah. I would say it's the same problem. She told me she would have to talk to some guy and call me back... Which never happened (because they don't care). I never received my return call and when I finally called back and insisted on talking to him he gave me an answer I would expect to get from a company that doesn't care and just wants your money - Oh, those old systems will nickel and dime you to death. But he still couldn't just waive the service call fee for once for a customer who's entire family uses their services and is upset.

Really? It might be time for us to buy a new system, I won't argue there, but there is a specific problem going on here and here's the thing...

I wouldn't mind paying for some different parts and labor. I'm not completely unreasonable and I understand that no one's perfect. Everyone makes mistakes. They may NEVER be able to find the problem/answer and that's okay. What's NOT okay is a company I've used for years trying to charge me over and over for the same service call and generally acting like they don't care (except for Jeff, if it were Jeff's company he would have come back without charging us again).

Bottom line - MRS will give you good service as long as they can find the problem, but they aren't cheap. Also, don't expect the higher ups to actually care about you... the customer.
