Update. because I left 1 star review, the company told me they will no longer service or address any issues I am having with the new system. Basically all their provided warranties are voided -------- Hired them to replace old/broken duct work and install new Carrier Infinity system. The owner John came out was very pleasant to deal with before the job and any issues started. Initially was told it will take 3-5 days to do.
The job started early May and completed end of July. Feels like everything that could go wrong, went wrong. System stopped working the next due to low refrigerant, due to a leak. After they filled it, system stopped working due to Too high pressure in the line Heating failed due to Air in the Gas line, failing temperature sentsors. Big gaps in newly installed duct work. leaking drain line. (video attached) crushed new duct work. I had about a dozen service calls and system still works half way. Last message I got from them, is that they came out too many times, and can't keep doing it.

Great company. Just moved to town and needed my HVAC repaired cause it was leaking. Other companies wouldn't schedule me for weeks because I was a new customer. They got me on the schedule in two days.

We have dealt with TTC for over 10years and would readily give them a five star rating but our last experience was the worst example of customer service ever. They didn't show up the first day. The second day they were late but called. The technician had van trouble and was more worried about that than servicing our heating system. After the problem with his van was fixed it was left in our driveway all night long prompting a call from the police at 11:30 that night. The technician left the cover off our tankless water heater. Not even an apology from them after I emailed them. Lots of choices out there. off our list. Very disappointed.

I was given three companies by American Standard for my Water Tank. The first on the list told me they don't do Residential. The Second, Aspen Wall Plumbing told me they were too busy. The Third, Total Temperature Control were busy also; understood my position having no hot water and sent someone that afternoon. The Technician knew exactly what he was doing and after trying several solutions concluded I needed a new part.
He arranged for me to have it shipped overnight. It arrived the next morning and the tech return in the early afternoon and completed the job. Without reservation I would recommend this company. A Caveat to this would be to maintain your receipts. A year and a half I was billed for the services which I had paid for at the time. I called and was told to send a copy of my Credit Card Statement which I did. A year later they billed me again and claimed they never received it. I told them I would send via email and the next time they asked for it I would show it in COURT! Horrible staff in the Office.

This is the second 5 star review for Total Temperature Control! John, the owner, called us back promptly and arranged for tech Jamie to come out to ensure us that our recent installation was working efficiently. Jamie, the technician, is so knowledgeable and thorough. Jamie went out of his way to make sure that customer satisfaction comes first! We not only recommend Total Temperature Control we also highly recommend their commitment to service and putting the customer first!
