“Its pages show a 5.0 Google rating from 138 reviews, BBB A+ accreditation, 12,000+ installs since 2014, Manual J load sizing, free estimates, and published Denver prices (14 SEER systems at $6,900 to $8,700, with 2025 customers averaging about $6,700).”
“Best Pick Reports certifies it with 4.8 stars from 5,623 reviews and lists it as licensed, insured, in business since 1983, doing HVAC installation and replacement, and offering a 2-year parts and labor warranty plus a lifetime workmanship warranty.”
“It is a Best Pick Reports certified company with 4.8 stars from 8,691 reviews, and its own site claims 50+ years in Denver and guaranteed installs of central AC, heat pumps, and mini-splits.”
“Its pricing is very clear (3-ton 16 SEER at $5,500 to $7,000 with a 10-year warranty), but the pages I opened had no rating or review count and still describe an expired federal tax credit as available.”
“It posts prices and claims 5.0 from 153 reviews, but that evidence is only on its own site, it lists far fewer jobs (1,200+), and it mentions federal tax credits that no longer apply.”
“It is Best Pick certified with 4.8 from 3,606 reviews, but nothing I opened described its AC installation work, prices, or install warranty.”
“It has a lower rating (4.6 from 149+ reviews), the highest posted price range I saw ($6,500 to $13,000), and cites an expired federal credit.”
“It says it dispatches jobs to a network of local technicians, so it is unclear who would actually install the system, and its rating claim is only on its own site.”
“Its install page focuses mostly on commercial work and shows no rating, license, pricing, or years in business.”
“The Best Pick list shows it certified with 4.9 from 2,792 reviews, but its profile page returned a 404 and I did not open its own site to check install details.”
“I saw only its Best Pick list entry (4.8 from 1,645 reviews, not marked Certified) and did not open its own site.”

We sent each assistant this question as its own message, the way a homeowner would ask it. It searched the web and read business sites on its own. Each answer shows which assistant and version answered and when. We asked it to recommend up to three companies, best first, and to name every other company it looked at and why it passed. Reasons are quoted as given. Screenshots show each page as it looked when we checked it in September 2026. We ask again every month and keep every answer.
