They couldn't care less about you. we were with them for 30 years and when we needed them to honor our warranty they ignored us like we were nobody. They have no loyalty and they don't know what they are dping management wise. Their workers used to be great and you still might get a good one but don't count on it. They work on commission so they will try to gouge you every chance they get. We fell for it for years and we're loyal customers but in the end that meant nothing to them. Beware

Thank you John and crew for such a timely response. During a time where my parents faced medical challenges, the 2nd Wind Crew came to their need, and provided them a brand new unit in a day! That is service with a heart, thanks guys!

I have a maintenance contract with 2nd Wind. They visit my home quarterly to inspect and maintain my HVAC system. Their communication is timely. The in-house and field personnel are professional, courteous, and responsive. This is the second time Cedrick has come out to replace my filters and inspect my heater and air conditioning. He's always polite and willing to explain the steps he's taking to keep my system running as expected. I appreciate the service and the value I receive. I highly recommend this business.

We just had Cedric come to our home. He was very polite. He performed our service required by our maintenance agreement and he was very thorough. He discovered that our coil was icing up. We wondered why our energy bill was going up, that explains it. Another service tech was sent out for a second opinion. they were prompt, clean, polite and very thorough. I highly recommend 2nd wind Heating & Air!

Friday the 13th was indeed an unlucky day for us, for our old Goodman unit simply imploded and was beyond repair. On the lucky side, we had a long-standing contract with 2nd Wind and service tech Robert Morgan was quickly dispatched to the scene. In short order we had a contract for a new Tempstar unit, but on the downside, it could not be installed until Monday. To make it through a very hot weekend, service tach Morgan brought us two window units for our bedrooms.
Then first thing on Monday morning, service techs Dustin and Jervet showed up to begin the install. Unfortunately, this was just about the time that tropical storm Fred was sending bad weather through our area. Yet in spite of the poor weather conditions, the unit was finally installed by Tuesday and we finally had a cool house once again. The 2nd Wind service staff were professional, knowledgeable, and most importantly, supportive in our time of need. I would highly recommend 2nd Wind and their service contact.
