Ernst Heating & Cooling

I would give this a negative review.

I purchased my unit from Ernst in 2013. The warranty as explained was 5 years on labor and 10 years on parts. I recently called due to a bad thermostat. This was covered by warranty. However, I was charged for having someone sent out along with a deductible for the thermostat. Deductibles and charges for sending someone out on a warranty call was not explained at time of purchase. I have called Ernst before for warranty work and incurred charges due to it being a holiday. In my opinion there should be no charge if the warranty is involved. As far as the work itself is concerned the thermostat was not registered and I had to perform this task myself. The rest of the work was fine. I'm not sure I would recommend Ernst at this point. The work is fine but I am very disappointed in the way the warranty has been handled.

Hi Cletus. Thanks for your review. I'm sorry that you weren't pleased with how the warranty was handled. Warranty issues in the heating & cooling industry are one of the biggest challenges we face. As a rule of thumb, we charge the diagnostic fee any time that we have to send a technician to make a repair. That deductible that was charged shouldn't have been. I think I would chalk that up to simply a mistake. I'm going to be sending you a check for the amount on the invoice. Once again I apologize and please let me know if there is anything else I can do for you.
Thanks,
Dusty Ernst
