    Service date 11/14/2024 The furnace trap, hoes, draft inducer, and drip leg were pulled and cleaned. System ran about 45 minutes, stopped working. The next morning, I called Appleton, the tech supervisor was rude, I was told if I send a tech back out It will be another $800 or more. I asked If the $370 we paid will that amount be deducted since we paid you to fix the furnace, it only worked for 45 minutes, I was told no and only if you purchased new system, we would deduct $370 from the total. ****** Heating came out, fixed our system and it still working. However, we had to pay them. The tech complain that he doesn't normally work nights, and he was tied. Why did they dispatch a tech who said he doesn't work nights and was tied. I feel like the tech didn't put much effort in repairing it correctly. I'm asking for some kind of refund.
