Brandon is a top notch technician. He went out of his way to explain things to me and was very patient and professional. The service fees are very reasonable as well. I recommend him and Kohl's & Bach 100%. Service: A/C system maintenance

Our air conditioner was not working properly and I called to set an appointment, and surprisingly they were able to have someone come that day. I was expecting it to be a number of days or a week. The tech, Sherrill, was very knowledgeable. He diagnosed the problem and even found what probably led to the issue in the first place. I am extremely happy with how quickly they were able to come and fix my issue, their knowledge and professionalism. I will definitely be using Kohles and Bach moving forward.

The technician was excellent. He answered our questions and was knowledgeable, professional, and very pleasant. He explained what he was going to do and completed the job efficiently. We're very satisfied with Kohles and Bach and your service plan to take care of our furnace before winter and air conditioner at the start of summer puts our minds at ease that these appliances are working properly, and also that we're safe and comfortable. I've recommended your services to a number of family and neighbors.

Service representative Brandon was pleasant, knowledgeable and very efficient. He was courteous and made sure his work area was spotless when he was finished. Most of all, coming from a tropical State, I really appreciate him not trying to sway us into buying something we don't need. I highly recommend Kohles and Bach Heating & Cooling.

Brandon called and arrived promptly. He went the extra mile when my dog got out and waited until dog was in the house, explained how gas fireplaces operate, how to use igniter and told me about changing switch for variable speed fan. No mess and well organized. Very knowledgeable and friendly. I would like him to return if I need additional work. I liked the staff photo.
