I bought two a/c/heating units from Ancae 6 years ago this spring. The first year it worked fine, or did it? because the upstairs unit would not cool and the freon had to be loaded. Each year they have had to come out and charge the unit with more freon. Which means more time off work each year. Then in year 4, John indicated the problems I was having was due to a possible defective unit. He did put dye in the unit to beable to see where the leak was coming from and some kind of sealant to seal any leak. That didn't work... When they came out this year on may 15, the new repair person said he could see the dye on the coil. He contacted Andell the owner and Andell ordered a new coil and said he would pay for it. Installed the following week. Shabbily. They came back on 5/26 to seal over the unit with some special tape as cold air was leaking out of the unit but it was cooling. Now on Friday 6/5, the unit stopped working AGAIN. I sent Andell a email and told him this unit needed to be replaced and it was old that after all this time it was still not working. He responded saying not to threaten him. I responded and said I was not threatening him, just was very frustrated and if he would put himself in my position, he would be frustrated as well. I called later that morning and he does not have anyone available to fix my unit and I should perhaps call someone else (which I am doing). Andell was reminding me that I have not had to pay anything (except for the $230.72 freon bill in 2017 and reminded me that labor was only through the 1st year, but if I registered the units, I have a 10 year warranty on parts. Which made me ask then, why he had to pay for the coil? I just think if the unit has never worked, then they should be liable and make it right.
It isn't worth the battle. I would not, in all sincerity be able to recommend but rather stay away from them.
