Oehl Plumbing Heating Electric & Air Conditioning

If I could give Oehl plumbing and heating zero stars I would. My husband has never had such rude costumer service, especially by the owner! AND then to receive a BS bill on top of it! We will take our business else where.

They are always here when we need them. Called a 5am on Saturday morning had central air up and running again by 9am. Thank you

Fast, prompt service during extremely cold temperatures! My technician went above and beyond to make sure my furnace was running smoothly. He taught me about my furnace as well going over the things to look for if I worry if there is a problem. Great experience.

Beware. Not very upfront about what services are gonna cost. Weekend call cost $127 service call and then another $127 labor charge For a total bill of $272 with no parts involved. Not bad for one hours worth of work. One week later needed another service call on a weekend but used a different company. They replaced the igniter in the furnace and where they're about the same amount of time and charges only $125. I will never use their services again. Reply to your reply. The tech was not up front about the cost When I call he never rates. He never mentioned anything about a service call in addition to an hourly rate. The only thing that the Tech cleaned my furnace was putting his mouth on one of the tubes and blowing on it. I watched him the whole time. Nothing else was cleaned. Upon leaving I asked him what the bill would be and he stated it should not be more than $200 but he did not want to give me an invoice when I requested one. He said he would mail it.... I should have been suspicious then. Good thing I watch him if it happens again I will be able to fix it myself. It will be the easiest $272 I will ever not make. Live and learn. Doesn't look like I am the only one that complains about share billing practices either.

I already knew our system was getting old and will need replacing. Then I just wanted it fixed for the short term and kept getting warned it was going to cost a lot. Even before he knew what was really wrong. Guess what, it cost a lot. Fine but he left me saying he didn’t know if the heat will work or not but AC is back working. Great, I guess we will find out come fall if we don’t schedule a replacement system that he said could be 15 or 20k. Sounds excessive but something we would like to plan for. So our AC system is working and maybe our heat will come on when we need it. Great and did I mention it cost just what he was predicting, before he even knew what was wrong. Nice they sent someone the next day but I will try another place next time, probably when my heat doesn’t come on this fall. Well here we are 9/29 and the first cold snap. Tried my heater and guess what?? It did not work. My fault for not checking right after the AC was fixed and the Technician said "I don't know if the heat will work or not." He said this as he was leaving, again reminding me that our system was old and needed to be replaced. Well, Davis Heating and Cooling of Iowa City just left and the heat is back on. Seems that a wire that would turn the heater on was missing. Imagine that! How in the world would that short piece of wire just get up and walk away? The wire was replaced and the Davis guy actually checked the heat ex-changer and for CO2, didn't just speculate because it was an old system. I always recommend getting second opinions, so if you still use Oehl, I highly recommend a second opinion before you replace anything.
