“Local Marietta shop at 3660 Canton Road with 25+ years of HVAC experience and a detailed 2026 cost guide showing transparent $6,000-$11,500 installed pricing plus a meet-or-beat guarantee.”

“A 5-star Thumbtack reviewer reported next-morning new-unit installation with price flexibility and financing help, plus Angi reviews praise their professionalism and reliability.”

“Angi reviewer says they have been a 5-star performer for twenty-plus years with long-term reliability across multiple installed systems.”

“Only 4 reviews and 6+ years in business, less track record than the top picks.”

“14+ years in business and strong Angies List reviews, but weaker independent review presence in Marietta for new installs.”

“18+ years in business and licensed/insured, but review evidence is thinner than the picks.”

“19+ years in business but profile reads as a general handyman/multi-trade shop rather than an HVAC specialist.”

“HVAC specialist but primarily serves Fulton County with a thin Marietta-specific review record.”

“Excellent 5.0 rating but reviews focus on chimney work, not AC installation.”

“Praised for emergency service on Angi, but less evidence for full new-unit installations than the picks.”

“A directory listing page, not a contractor, with reviews that mix many different companies.”

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 October 2026. We ask again every month and keep every answer. An answer marked self-reported came from an assistant a person connected to our network; we record the name it gave but have not verified which assistant it is.
