Now That's What I Call Service!
Since my 22 year old HVAC system had already reached its full service life expectancy, I figured it would be a good time to replace it and take advantage of the 2009-2010 tax credit. Got three estimates, the third being from Reliable. Was impressed with Dan Jape Sr. (Mr Reliable himself) who did my quote - he did not try to oversell me with an overly advanced system that would put this job beyond my budget. In fact, his quote was lower than, or at least in line with the other two, and even included the replacement of my 14 year old hot water heater. Dan sincerely seemed responsive to my needs.

I couldn't believe they were able to do my installation the following day! His crew of Phil, Chris and Sean were very courteous and knowledgeable and willingly answered all my questions as I observed them at each step of the installation, and they didn't take any shortcuts. They were even able to solve a duct problem which prevented three of my rooms from getting adequate heat/air. When the job was done, Phil reviewed each item on my quote with me to ensure everything was done to my satisfaction, and I was satisfied with my new system's performance, and made sure I fully understood how to effectively utilize it. Also did a great job of cleaning up after themselves.

I would highly recommend this company for all your HVAC needs - they are one class act. Great job guys!!

Excellent Installation
My thanks to Oscar and Raul for their excellent service and installation of an AC and Heating unit this week, 2/2/10 in Southeast Atlanta. They were knowlegable and professional in all aspects.
They represented themselves and Reliable H&A positively. Thank you.

Excellent price and work
Reliable did an excellent job. The price that I was quoted by Forrest beat the other quotes. The installation by Raul and Oscar was top notch. Reliable was very professional and on time for both the estimate and the actual installation.

Thanks guys

Great service
My experience with Reliable has been absolutely wonderful from start to finish. From the lady who answered the phone and the original tech, Sam who came out and diagnosed the problem to the installation crew of my brand new unit John & Kyle. They really care about their customers and the price is competitive. Their response time was great too! Not only did they loan me portable heaters to get me through the night until they could install my new unit, the crew who installed my unit gave me several tips for energy savings! I would highly recommend Reliable to anyone with a Heating & Air Conditioner need.

Sales Associate dropped the ball
My husband called Reliable to come out and see if we could get a whole house humidifier. Forrest was nice enough even though he accidentally locked his keys in his truck and had to have a wrecker come jimmy open the door. While here, he wouldn't really talk details with me other than to say that it wasn't really possible, he wanted only to talk to my husband, his original contact. When my husband tried to call him concerning our options, we never got a call back. We've already hired another local company to do the work.

UPDATE: I see a reply from the same date. Forrest mentioned a steam humidifier that would be possible in a closeted area the would pump steam into the ducts. Personally, I think you all didn't want to do the job. Not a problem, you just should've said that from the beginning.

I apologize for the confusion between Forrest and your husband, but after speaking to Forrest, he was waiting to hear back from your husband, having left a message for him. Possibly there was a mistake in phone numbers left, but the message he wanted to give him was that we did not feel it was safe to install a water line and humidifier in your home because both of your furnaces are in the attic. You also have fiberglass duct work which is not strong enough to support a humidifier. We used to install these machines in attics, but after the last two years extreme cold spells, many of these froze up as did the drain lines. If an attic is ventilated properly, it gets as cold as the outside temperature and the humidifier can't help but freeze. Water then comes through the ceiling causing damage to the floors and personal belongings. We are sorry we could not serve you, but we stand behind every product we install and if it damages your home, we make it right. We saw hundreds of frozen humidifiers and a lot of property damage in the last few weeks. Thanks, Dan Jape UPDATE: I can't understand why you feel we didn't want to do your job. We spend a lot of our company revenue advertising our services on TV, radio and print/newspapers. I work on keeping our customer service experience the best possible in the industry. I work on Kudzu answers 7 days a week and try extremely hard to satisfy each and everyone who actually does business with us. We would never take the time, money and gas to drive out to your home to give you an estimate on work we could do and then just decide we don't want your business. That is absolutely not in my makeup. Forrest asked me about installing a steam humidifier in a closet and running a hose up in your attic to tie into the duct work. The steam humidifier has a limit on the length of the distance it can be mounted away from the furnace and if it exceeds the recommended length it does not add the proper amount of moisture to the home. Once again, I am sorry we could not serve you, but we will not install a product that may not work properly or might freeze up and cause damage to your home. If we had charged you to come out and give you a estimate, I would gladly refund the money spent, but we never charge for an estimate. I am sorry you feel we wasted your time, but we have to come out and look at every job we do and 99.99% of the time we have an answer and a price. Thanks, Dan

Wonderful experience from start to finish!
My family recently moved into a 65 year old house. After living there for 6 months it became obvious that the two HVAC systems were not going to meet our needs.

After extensive research I decided on Trane equipment and I got quotes from three recognized dealers in Atlanta. I was immediately impressed when Dan Jape, the owner of Reliable Heating & Air, came out on a Saturday and spent over 2 hours going over every detail of my existing systems. Dan knew the products and their capabilities and was a straight shooter from start to finish. Dan then spent a good bit of time writing up a proposal, which turned out to be substantially lower than the other competitors.

Within four days, Dan had a 5 man crew show up to complete the installation of two new systems in our home. Mike, Rob, Shawn, Jim, and Roberto were true professionals and worked from 8 AM till almost 7 PM getting everything just right. I had the opportunity throughout the day to speak with each of them individually and I was impressed not only with their industry knowledge and technical skills, but their social skills and courtesy to me as a customer.

Reliable provides a 10 year parts and labor warranty on Trane equipment. This is very reassuring to a consumer and gives you allot of "Bang for your Buck"!!. The entire experience was stress free and I highly recommend Reliable!!!

Reliable Heating & Air - Dan Jape replied on 01-25-2010
I am very pleased to hear all went well with your install Saturday. The crews told me that we were able to get really good airflow to your master bedroom, which I was concerned about and also we were able to exit your two foot granite wall away from a window with the flue. Your installation was a big job to do in one day and needed good planning to do on a weekend. I very much enjoyed meeting with you and your father-in-law! He has truly been a great American and has done more for others than most people only dream of. Tell him thanks for the referral! The techs I sent you have all been with us here at Reliable for many years and it made me very happy they represented the company so well. I hire techs not only on their heating and air skills but also on their people skills along with their honesty and integrity. Thanks so much for the chance to earn your business and for selecting us considering how much pressure your other potential vendor was exerting. Thanks for taking the time to register here at Kudzu and giving us a 5 star rating! Call me when your father-in-law wants to get his systems serviced. Dan Jape

Class A operation
To Whom It May Concern:
My husband and I would like to express our gratitude to Reliable Heating and Air for making the whole process of purchasing and installing a new heating and air system such a pleasant experience, especially in our time of need.
Forrest Paran was able to come out and give us an honest and fair estimate. The entire experience was informative, pleasant and appreciated.
We would like to extend our gratitude to Raul and Oscar Ceron for installing our new system with such great professionalism and courtesy. These two gentlemen displayed superior knowledge. I would gladly and highly recommend Dan Japes team at Reliable Heating and Air.
Many thanks to Kim and Dan.

It was a pleasure serving you and I want to thank you for the great review and the 5 star rating! I am very pleased you were happy with Forrest and his estimate. He has become a very important part of our team in the last year. I hired him away from one of competitors and he has really fit in here at Reliable. Raul and Oscar are one of our great install teams and you will see their names mentioned here in Kudzu often. They always do a great job and are very conscientious. I am glad we were referred to you and were able to help. Thanks for your business! Dan Jape

Two Happy Visits
Today is the second time that I have used Reliable in a year and both times, they have come through with excellent service. Technician Larry is knowledgable, pleasant and provides excellent service and the office staff that made my appointment were equally as good. I highly recommend this company. Holly Underwood

Thank you very much for taking the time to register with Kudzu and give us this great 5 star review. Larry is a great guy and a very good tech. He has a heart of gold and works very hard for us here at Reliable. I am also glad you found our office staff treated you well also. They all have a real tough job, as our phones ring all day long from the early morning when they arrive until late into the evening. They do not often have any spare time to even get up from their desks to stretch and take a break. All of us here at Reliable really appreciate your business. THANKS! Dan Jape
