I used the Witmer Company for the installation of a new heat pump in 2018. Since that date, it has had constant problems. Every time it switches from air to heat, a problem occurs. Witmer has spent a total of over 30 hours "repairing" it, and have replaced at least 20 different parts. I do not think that a heat pump bought in 2018 can have this many problems, I feel that the unit (an Amana) is a lemon and would like it replaced.
I was told today that the indoor unit would be placed. Three men, including Andy came out and of course found another problem to fix, so it was decided I did not need a new unit. I have never been treated so unprofessionally. Andy was rude and degrading and Jeff who said I would get a new unit today, had no intention of replacing my unit. I would not recommend the Witmer company for anything. They are the worst company I have ever dealt with, and I am a retired vice president of a company and have worked with 100's of many different companies. DO NOT use Witmer, unless you want to deal with constant frustration and lies.

Problem withing constant pinging in every vent after installing brand new hvac system. Someone came to check it out and was told they do not know what it is. Left hanging with noises that I need earplugs and white noise machine. Very dissappointed, they got my money and blew me off.

Critical: Value The repair for a kitchen faucet installation was the highest at 724. For a replacement. The unit was marked up 4 times its price at Lowe's. I feel taken advantage of. I had another repair needed but have to wait. Service: Faucet installation

Critical: Quality Called for emergency service when our sump stopped working. After stumbling over his words, the technician who returned the call said they're not accepting new customers for emergency calls. Why advertise as 24/7 and offer emergency calls if you won't take on an emergency?

Jeff is one of those rare guys who will care about your project as much as you do, including that you get a good price. Have done many projects with him over the years and each time leaves me feeling better. Andy and John have been great as well. Always there for you!

Ryan did a great job on our Heater/Air Conditioner check up. He was very professional, courteous, and informative. I would recommend Wimmer Company to anyone that needed their service. You are the best by far. Thank you. Martin & Sandi
