Great people facing skills

I had 3 engineers come and service my boiler, replace a radiator and box in the pipework and come back out because the heating went off! They all had exceptional people facing skills. A special shout out to Isaac and the last young man whose name I forgot to ask, who made suggestions as to how I could ensure most heat in my lounge.

Heat Pump specialists? Not in my experience.

Despite the rave reviews on Google and Trustpilot, my experience has been appalling. Scheduled an annual service of our air source heat pump which has been serviced annually by another company.

Big mistake. When we turned the heating on a few days after the 'service', it started up and....stopped. A little tepid water in the pipes from the system that couldn't make it to the rooms. Bottom line...the engineers didn't check that the heating would reach the room and HEAT.

Called them back. Return visit had lots of scratching of heads. They tried calling the office for advice but, as it was 4.30 on a Friday, nobody there. Theories ranged from the electrical controls being on the fritz to the heat exchange plates being clogged up or even calcified (we're in a soft water county). I had to chase the office multiple times to get some diagnosis and action plan.

Umpteen promises (after me calling them) that they'd be back in two weeks to try pressure washing the plates which would take a full day's labour (no heat for this period and my wife is disabled) but still no date confirmed. They even proposed that the exchange unit might need replacing if it's calcified but still haven't been able to come up with a cost and lead time.

Then... after being told 'no charge for the follow-up visit as it's linked to the service' I get an invoice for £70 this morning!

I called again this morning to challenge the invoice and ask what's going on. After calling first thing today, it's nearly 12 and I'm awaiting a callback/resolution from a manager but, honestly, I know it's busy season now as people turn their heating on, but, based on this experience I can't recommend anyone to rely on either engineers or central office of this supposed 'specialist' in heat pumps and feel the need to warn others.

Maybe I've just been unusually unfortunate and there are many happy customers, but winter is coming.

Shame they let us down

This company are usually brilliant and I'm glad I switched to them to service my boiler. However we were left without any heating for five days at the end of last Winter. I understand it was partly over a bank holiday but still wasn't good for two people with severe health issues.

While the bank holiday did unfortunately affect availability, we completely understand how difficult this must have been, especially given your circumstances.
