After a winter of furnace flakiness and a potential summer of 29 degress above inside the house (we get a ton of sun in the morning and evening), we decided to replace the old furnace and hot water tank, as well as get a new AC and humidifier, all at once, to minimize the labour costs. I spoke with a few HVAC resources, some too big (very expensive estimates), some too small (no confidence they could actually do the job), and after talking to Brent at Shift Air, one just right.
Brent's estimate was professional and reasonable, and after weighing a few options (he was very patient with me as I tried to make up my mind as to exactly what I wanted), the estimate he gave me was exactly (to the penny) what the end cost of the job turned out to be.
Not only did Brent always show up on time and return my questions in a timely fashion (some places didn't return phone calls or voice messages), he always gave me the impression the entire time he actually cared about the quality of work he was to deliver, which really went a long way in my book. Brent enjoys doing the job well, and it shows in the quality of his work.
The job itself took a couple days (the time he said it would), and Brent and his crew (very nice people) were always positive and clearly working hard. All of our old stuff was removed from site the first day, and everything was hooked up and working properly by the middle of the second day, an excellent accomplishment, given the scope of the job. There were no surprises or things that came up on the job, like I said earlier my invoice was the exact amount of Brent's original estimate.
Overall, I am very happy with Brent's work, and would recommend him and Shift Air to anyone interested in getting quality HVAC work done at a reasonable price.

Colin,
Your house was a very nice and clean installation. I know that the system that we put into your house is the correct for your situation. You were a pleasure to work with and the red link thermostat was a great idea and I think that we are both enjoying them now.
I know that you will be enjoying the air conditioning this summer and the heat this winter. You know my number. Thanks again. Brent
