Best Electric Furnace Installation in San Diego CA
Electrician
Contacted this company due to the overall good ratings on Yelp. I had an old hot water heater in a stand-alone wash house on my property and it finally gave up the ghost. (It was also horribly out of code.) I gave consideration to replacing it with an electric tankless device which would have required installation of 220v.
Wrote a request for service via their website, and to my surprise I was called back within a couple of hours - 7:30 that evening! The technician and I chatted about the pros and cons of such a scenario, and promised to send out one of their electricians next-day.
He came, and after chatting a bit, we agreed it wasn't an ideal solution - best to just go with another traditional gas water heater. He stated he would make an effort to get one of their plumbers out next week to assess. (I waited a few days for a phone call but didn't receive one, so I just went back to their site and wrote up another request - no biggie, perhaps just a communication error.)
That written request, again, was followed up by a phone call in record time, and after Ideal came out and reassessed the needs (plus addressing all the needs to bring the install up-to-code!) I committed to the estimate and install date.
Friday morning 2 gentlemen showed up with everything that was needed for a top-notch, professional, almost gorgeous in-code install of a new hot water heater. The re-plumbing that had to be done was a work of art upon completion, and they had all the parts and tools needed to even vent up through the roof as my out-of-compliance previous install from dozens of years ago vented out the side wall. They didn't need to borrow a tool or interface with me once - by noon, Norris and Rob were done, and the old water heater was taken away.
These guys weren't just plumbers - they were artistic technicians - and as professional and friendly as one can get. I even showed off their job to some pretty hard-nosed critic friends of mine, and they were impressed. It sounds ridiculous, but I still find myself just staring at their work sometimes, out of sheer admiration for the challenges they faced and coming through with flying colors.
The estimate I was quoted upon that second visit (I think it was the actual owner!) didn't vary one red cent from the final bill.
I now have total peace of mind for all my plumbing, heating, air and electrical needs in future. Thanks, Ideal!
