For those of you who are looking for a quick review, hire Buttons Heating and save yourself the time with others for estimates.
We had a number of estimates from others referred to on HomeStars. Todd Button came to our home and provided the best full and frank estimate of everyone we spoke with. He was honest and only suggesting products we needed, not to make an extra dollar. Buttons Heating is fairly priced. Their prices are consistent with most of the estimates provided.
Originally, we were only planning on having our air conditioner replaced. Our furnace was only 14 years old and we believed there was much life left. During the installation of the air conditioner, one of the installers had noticed a cracked heat exchanger. He showed me the issue, which resulted in having to have our furnace replaced as well...obviously a no brainer.
Even though Buttons had only set aside the appropriate time for the air conditioner installation they bent over backwards to order, deliver and install the new furnace as well. We took the advice of Todd and went with a Trane air conditioner, air cleaner and furnace. I must say, this was the best advise we could have had. The air conditioner is quiet as ever and works like a charm.
By no means is the purchase of an air conditioner and furnace attractive. Lets admit, nothing pretty to look at for the price we pay. Regardless, the entire process in dealing with the Buttons staff was top notch. I couldn't have asked to have better installers in my home. Justin, Ryan, Dan and Ross had a great sense of humour and did an excellent job in the installation. They were personable, knowledgable and clean! A runner was laid from the front door to the utility room. Absolutely no mess.
Again, save yourself the time with other estimates and just hire Buttons. You won't be disappointed.
