I submitted a ticket online the week of the 19th to receive my invoices from work done back in June of 2023, and also get scheduled inspections(permits were pulled, work was done, but inspection still has not happened yet). The invoices were sent to me on the 21st of February and I noticed a potential discrepancy in the amount labeled "move for accounting." The issue was partially resolved and they explained to me what that was, but that raised a question about the final amount that was paid. Back in June, in between getting all of the work done, I called in to Heart to see about getting a better deal on parts and labor since I was getting a lot of work done. I cannot recall what the discount or the outcome even was, but at a minimum I am at least missing the 15% discount on the **** work, associated with being a member. I called to discuss this potential discrepancy on the 23rd of February. The person I spoke to said they would research and listen back to the recorded lines and give me a call back on the 26th. This never happened. With how busy people are nowadays I was being flexible and let it go, and called back on the 5th of March. The person I spoke to then could not help me, and also told me that they would touch base and have someone call me back on the 6th. That still did not happen. Again, being understanding I let it go and called on the 8th and asked to speak to a manager of customer care/customer service. I called at ********, but nobody was available. The receptionist/customer service rep told me they sent a message and I would get a call back after lunch. Of course as the track record goes, normal lunch hours went by, and I did not get a call back. On 03/08 I called back and still have not been able to get in touch with anyone. I was advised my best option is to send an email. I sent an email the evening of the 8th and still have not received a call or email reply as of 10:30 am MST on 03/12.Business response

On October 27, 2023, I had my heat-pump/AC unit replaced (cost: $8579.24) by a technician from Heart Heating. The unit was installed but was found, after installation, to be not fully functional at that time. They were not able to figure out why at the time. A second technician came out a few days later at a time I had specifically told the dispatchers generally did not fit my schedule. He was there for a while but could not figure out the issue either. I had to then schedule yet another day with them to try to get this unit functioning properly. This third time the technician was once again uncertain as to what the problem was but waited out front of my place for quite some time to get a call back from the manufacturers support division. It was then that they were instructed to do one other test and subsequently told me that they had to install a new part. In essence, I was told by the technician that they had to undo a portion of what they had already done in order to fix this once and for all. I contacted them via email, phone, and text messages to try to get more precise information as to the breakdown of the new costs, but they wouldnt give that to me. I emailed a representative again (Stefawna) and expressed my concerns, but no one responded other than to resend the original invoice for the new work. I left a message with another representative (****) to get back to me, but she never did. In all, I had to take two extra days off from work after the initial installation for the subsequent visit plus all the time to try to get a direct response from someone there, but to no avail. What I did get was several calls and texts to get me to have this unit inspected and approved, even before it was complete and functional. As of now, the unit is still not fully functional (no AC). I hope to get a call directly from someone there who will hear my concerns and has some authority.Business response

Upon receipt of a complaint from ************************* regarding his heat pump, we promptly initiated communication to discuss the reported issue. Subsequent research revealed an incongruence between the heat pump condenser and the pre-existing evaporating coil, a matter that ideally should have been identified during the initial transaction. In acknowledgment of this oversight, we proactively extended an offer to remedy the situation by installing a compatible evaporator coil, covered under warranty, without incurring any additional charges.
On January 31, ****, the replacement of the evaporator coil was successfully executed, accompanied by a thorough operational inspection. At present, the heat pump is functioning within normal parameters.Customer response

On July 11, 2023 a plumber from Heart Heating, Cooling, Plumbing & Electric went to my home to fix a leak that had caused water damage. The plumber arrived after 9:30 AM and was complete at 5:15 PM, so this was no more than 8 hours of work by one person total. He called me to talk through what he discovered and get my approval to move forward with repairs at 11 AM, and I agreed to repairs that he said would cost ~$1400 (replacing a sump pump and fixing a pipe under the sink). At 1:20 PM, he called again and said that work was complete but he discovered another leaky pipe behind the kitchen wall, and the new total would be ~$2700 if he fixed that as well. I agreed to pay ~$2700, and he completed the work. At 5:15 PM, he called and said he was complete and the total amount I owed was ~$4200. I was shocked and said I agreed to pay only ~$2700, and he then explained it was ~$2700 plus the ~$1400 from earlier. I said that was way too much and refused to pay on the phone, instead asking that he have somebody from the office call me to discuss the pricing and agree on what I should pay. Since then, I got a few calls from the office asking me for payment, and when I expressed that I wanted to speak with somebody about adjusting the price, they had the plumber himself call me back. We were unable to reach a satisfactory resolution when we spoke 3 weeks ago, so I asked that he have somebody in management call me back. I have not heard back and have not been able to connect through to a person each time I've tried calling their office since. I am seeking BBB support with getting them to contact me, reach a satisfactory resolution, and adjust the price so I can pay my bill. By my calculations, 8 hours of work + a new sump pump + pipe components should come in well under $2700, so I am only willing to pay what I agreed to on the phone, $2700. I have attached the invoice they sent me.Customer response

The company contacted me thanks to this claim, and we reached a resolution on the amount owed ($2600). I paid the bill, so this claim can be closed. Thank you very much for existing as a service to support consumers like me!

On 2/11/2023 we met with **** and agreed to upgrade our **** system to an energy efficient gas furnace, tankless water heater, and cold weather heat pump (Project ID ********, $25,465.46). The quote included duct cleaning $600, which we asked to be removed from the financing and was not. The water heater was installed incorrectly and not to code which lead to a major leak and water damage to our kitchen ceiling. We asked for a third party to confirm that no structural damage occurred to our home due to this issue and never received the final inspection report. They destroyed several of our stairs while installing the new equipment on our second floor. The **** system, heat pump, and ********** took multiple visits by several of their most qualified and experienced technicians to trouble shoot and get working, including ****, one of the co-owners of the company. **** assured us we would get exactly what we were promised and that adequate compensation for our troubles and extensive time-off work to manage all these additional site visits would be negotiated. "we want to make it right" was his tagline. After all the repairs were completed we met with **** again to discuss compensation. We agreed upon the installation of a humidifier to our upgrade **** system and a reimbursement check of $2000 ($1400 to cover our work absences, and $600 for the duct cleaning charge that was not removed from our project financing). The final plumbing, electrical, and mechanical inspections finally passed (needed return visits as there were issues, again adding more unnecessary time-off on my part) at the end of June 2023. We have yet to receive the reimbursement check, or any of the records for the work completed at our home. I've called Heart several times, left messages for both **** and **** and they've ghosted us. This is not acting with integrity and valuing customer service above all else, as their messaging suggests. We just want them to honor the commitment they made.Business response

September 2022 Heart Heating installed an airconditioning system into my condo. I paid them over $11000 before work completed. Turned out they did not fix any problems despite a new unit installation. THey felt there may be a leak (which they never mentioned until unit installed). They asked for another $1000 to complete. I wanted more information yet they never showed up to complete work. I have been without air for over a year. While lthey lent us portable unit that only showed that their work was not completed. I have place daily call to Heart (manager Named ***** with no reply. Tempertures in my condo reach 87 with no relief in sight. I want a refund over the $11000 or complete the work. I have documents for all work, invoices, emails and texts.Business response

Mr. ************ original quote and scope of work (attached), was for replacement of the air handler only. After installation of the air handler, and while attempting to start up his system, it was discovered that the lineset (the piping from the indoor air handler to the outdoor condenser), would not hold pressure. This indicating a leak in that piping. Replacement or repair of that piping was not part of the original scope of work. In spite of that, Heart has gone to great lengths attempting to locate the source of the leak, hiring "Professional Locators" to attempt to trace the piping through the walls, working with the *** to find a solution, all at no charge to Mr. ********** due to feeling bad for him in the situation. The piping travels from Mr. ************ unit, through 2 other condos, before eventually going through the roof. Finding a solution to this issue has been difficult due to requiring access to all units involved. We have currently offered to run new lineset at a highly discounted rate of $1000 for him, again just to assist him with this issue. But given that Mr. ********** does not seem to find that to be an acceptable solution, we will withdraw that estimate. We have completed our original scope of work back in September of 2022. This other issue is not our responsibility, and clearly Mr. ********** would prefer to have someone else handle it. Additionally, we need the immediate return of the temporary cooling units we loaned to him at no charge.
We have also attached call records showing the numerous attempts made to reach Mr. ********** to coordinate the installation of the new piping. We have the recordings of these calls as well.

On 11/30/2022 this business was contracted to replace the water heater at *****************************************************************************. After the work was completed, two main issues occurred:1. Gas leak was reported and had to be repaired. Heart H.C.P.E. was contacted and corrected this. 2. It was discovered that a permit was not submitted to the *************************************** for this work to be conducted. ********************************************** I am concerned that they have not submitted the permit and are conducting work on other properties. Fortunately, we had just moved out before this work so no one lived in the resident when the gas leak occurred. Unfortunately, we are in the process of selling the residence and cannot proceed without this permit. I have been in contact with this business but they keep claiming that the city has to go inspect the work and then we'll get the permit, but it is my understanding that they need to pull a permit first and then the city will come inspect the work. Since the site is not showing any permits in 2022, I am led to believe the business has not requested a permit. Would like for permit to be submitted by business.Business response

We reached out to ********************, and agreed that he would pull the permit himself, due to the backlog of inspections at Pikes Peak, and that Heart Heating & Cooling will refund him the cost of the permit, and the initial fee charged for the permit. In all ******************** is refunded $100 for the permits and in conversation with ********************, his water heater was inspected and passed. The refund check was mailed on Friday 27th January 2023.Customer response

Hello,
In regards to complaint #********, this issue has been resolved. Details below:
The *************************************** confirmed that Heart Heating, Cooling, Plumbing & Electric does not have a current plumbing license.
After entering a ****** review, their C.O.O. reached out to me. C.O.O. agreed to reimburse me for services I paid for but were not rendered (the permit) as well as the permit I had to pull as a homeowner. Was promised to be reimbursed on 1/28/2023, didn't hear back so I called back on 2/15/2023 and finally got reimbursed.
