I called College Electric hoping to purchase a furnace filter and support a local business just two blocks away from my home, but I was met with a shockingly condescending employee and a Predatory Sales Tactics. During my inquiry, I spoke with an employee who was intensely condescending and barely allowed me to speak. When I asked about purchasing a filter, the employee initially claimed that they do not sell filters to the public. The employees then engaged in clear fear-mongering tactics, claiming that the filters are incredibly scarce, hard to get, and frequently back-ordered for up to three months. The employee also attempted to justify inflated costs by stating you have to charge for traveling—a ridiculous claim given that my residence is only two blocks away. the employee attempted to force a bundled upsell. I was told that I could buy the filters, but only if I purchased a package of 3 filters for $149.99, and booked a mandatory service call the tune-up for $99.99. This brought the forced grand total to $279.98. To test the validity of his scarcity claims, I drove across town to another local heating and cooling business. I was easily able to purchase a single filter immediately, off the shelf, for $69.48 including tax. Your employee’s contradictions make it clear that the claims of parts shortages and strict public-sale policies were entirely manufactured to bully me into a high-priced service package. I cannot support a local business that uses fear tactics and price gouging to take advantage of its community

Furnace broke down in the winter. They were quick to provide solutions, quotes and got the furnace and water tank installed urgently and professionally. Incredibly knowledgeable and everyone we dealt with provided great service. We will certainly keep doing business with them and contact them for any services needed in the future

College Electric helped us with the installation of our new furnace, hot water tank, and air conditioner, and they did an outstanding job. The team was professional, friendly, and worked efficiently from start to finish. The pricing was great, and everything was done perfectly. We’re really happy with the outcome and highly recommend them.

We have used College Electric/Home Service Plus for years and have always been satisfied with the service we have received. Response times are incredible. Knowledge, experience and skills are incredible. Professionalism and customer-service focus are second to none. And as an added bonus - most recently you guys supported my elderly parents with their Furnace and AC unit replacements. Your patience, kindness and professionalism through that entire experience were so greatly appreciated. Brad and Brandon are fantastic! Thank you!

I would highly recommended any other company. They failed to properly installing the furnaces exhaust by running it through the attic and failing to adequately insulate it. Instead of doing the job right they took whst they say as the cheap/easier way. Which is now lead to thousands of dollars of repairs to my attic and insulation. That could have been easily this well known and documented issue. I would go anywhere else, ANYWHERE.
