“4.5 on HomeAdvisor with 67 reviews, in business since 1997, and a detailed review of a recent heat pump install on the homeowner's timetable.”
“In business since 1975, 4.4 on HomeAdvisor with 105 reviews, and offers emergency services.”
“Seattle-based with 852 reviews at 4.44 on Porch and reviewers praising clean, timely, well-communicated heat pump and furnace work.”
“One very positive Thumbtack review, but too little review breadth compared to the picks.”
“4.7 on HomeAdvisor with 151 reviews, but heat pump install evidence was thinner than the picks.”
“4.2 with 377 reviews and 24/7 service, but primarily plumbing-focused and priced expensive.”
“Good Porch feedback (152 reviews) but geothermal niche, smaller review base.”
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.
