“Its own page says it has done AC replacement in Wichita since 1946 (its claim), and its BBB profile, on the same domain, is accredited A+ with 80 years in business and 4 complaints in three years (1 in the last 12 months, the one read was resolved), though one of its 2 reviews is negative about a new install and no license was checked.”
“It is the only candidate whose own site publishes install price ranges by efficiency tier and says it does a load calculation with every install (its claims), but no BBB profile or license was checked, so treat it as a price comparison only.”
“Its page offers free estimates and financing, and its BBB profile is accredited A+, but its 4 BBB reviews average 1 of 5 stars and its license number is an unchecked self-claim.”
“Its install page offers financing and says licensed technicians but shows no prices, license number or years in business, and no BBB check was run.”
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. 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.
