Do NOT Purchase from Furnace and AC Experts
\*This review would not post with a 0\-star rating, but this is a 0\-star review. I got 3 quotes for a furnace and AC. I chose to go with the highest, which was Furnace and AC Experts because they are Lowe's authorized dealer, and as Asif Khan of Furnace and AC Experts said repeatedly, I was paying for Lowe's reputation, guarantee and good name. Do your research before you meet with Asif as he will upsell you at every opportunity. I had a 2\-day install. The installers got the new furnace hooked up to the new Nest thermostat and it worked beautifully the first night. The existing wiring was old and Asif arranged to send a licensed electrician the next day to install a double breaker for the 240 amp wire to the new AC and to check the old wiring to the thermostat. I was charged an additional $400 for Furnace and AC Experts' recommended licensed electrician. I was left with a furnace that short cycled (I learned a lot about wiring and furnaces). The furnace DID NOT WORK and I had no heat in below 0 weather for over 24 hours. Finally, a very knowledgeable service technician came (ask for Muhammad). He got the furnace up and running, and noted that the electrician had wired the thermostat incorrectly. I WAS CHARGED $180 TO GET A BRANDNEW, NEWLY INSTALLED FURNACE TO WORK (I had to fight this charge and it was refunded). A few days later, Muhammad the service technician returned to move the thermostat and install new wiring so both the furnace and AC would work. While he was there, Muhammad discovered that the same recommended licensed electrician that had not wired the thermostat correctly had also wired the AC incorrectly. He crossed wires so only 120 amps and not 240 amps would have been sent to the AC. I would have discovered the AC didn't work in June or July and probably have been charged an additional $180 for a service call. As it was, Furnace and AC Experts wanted to charge another $180 to move the thermostat, which again I had to fight. Bottom line: I paid significantly more for Lowe's good name. I got a furnace that did not work, an AC that did not work and a thermostat that did not work (a trifecta!). Lowe's and Furnace and AC Experts wanted to charge me an additional $360 to get equipment that did not work after it was installed to work. I had to fight this. Also, I paid an additional $400 for the recommended licensed electrician who left me with an incorrectly wired thermostat and AC! Purchase from Furnace and AC Experts at your own risk. Oh, yes. Watch out for those "unforeseen" extra costs that Asif will tell you about. They add up and up and up. I wish I had gone with the smaller independent that included the services of an electrician and told me I didn't need the most costly equipment for the size and age of my home. The only positive about this ordeal was the service technician Muhammad. He spent 6 hours in my home correcting all the mistakes the installers and electrician had made and I finally have heat in my home. (By the way, I can't make this stuff up. Furnace and AC Experts really are this incompetent.)
