I estimated a furnace for 2500 by the time we were done with all the upselling and extra fees and costs it was 3500. the furnace installation took 4 days because they kept missing parts. i called the company to complain but i had already paid so I had to just wait. i would not recommend reliance to anyone.

Water Heater Rental

We've been very satisfied with Reliance as our water heater company. The rental rates are fair, and we've never had any issue with service or with bill payment. I would recommend Reliance

Water Heater Breakdown

We had just bought a new home and within a week suddenly realized our hot water heater was not working at all, and it was after 10pm. We called Reliance and learned that the water heater was not covered - they sent someone out to take a look for us.
The gentleman who came to our home was great. He fixed the faulty equipment and then showed us a few other issues with both the furnace and the central air. He did not try to 'sell' us further services - just showed us what to look for, how things could/should be fixed, etc.
I was very impressed with the professionalism and courtessy. Needless to say we now rent from Reliance and have purchased a service plan from them.

Installation of hot water tank

Since the day I moved into my new house Reliance kept sending door-to-door sales reps. Finally when I decide to change the previous owner's ancient hot water tank from Direct Energy, the service that I get is so bad!!! First, one guy from Dynasty (the contractor of Reliance) comes for site inspection and don't call or anything for over 1.5 months. Then I call them 2-3 times and finally someone comes to change the water tank. Now, the water tank has been changed, but the contractor has not given me the return confirmation form signed by Direct Energy after returning the old water heater!!! And everyone knows what that means! No water heater returned, no stopping the billing. I keep calling Reliance, they can't even find me on their system. I call Dynasty, they avoid my calls. If Direct Energy doesn't stop billing me, I am not paying a dime to Reliance. Why do they sell their product, if they can't give the service? My advise, stick to your existing water heater company, because switching is just a pain in.......

Rental Agreement

We purchased a home but have not moved in. I called Reliance because the paperwork given by the lawyer did not mention what product/service we were getting from Reliance. NO ONE RETURNED MY CALL. Bills started coming in from Reliance and Enbridge - Double billing. I phoned reliance again to find out what these bills were for. Spoke to Lucy who explained it was for rental of the furnace and air conditioning unit. I told her we did not want this service and wanted these out. She told me as per the contract there is a fee of $ 720. I told her to email or mail me the contract - NO THING. Emails bounced and Lucy is not there. Spoke with Melissa and was told that she will rectify this situation. NO THING. This has been going back and forth since April. Now Reliance has put this on collection with threats. What kind of a company is this. We are seniors and this company is not providing any information or customer service.

Hot Water Scam!

First problem was the water heater salesmen scammed his way in by saying our water heater was unsafe and government says it should be replaced. Unfortunately I was not home at the time. 2nd was it should have never been put in without the home owners permission which we are not we just rent. And 3rd like all the other comments in these reviews the customer service is non existent cause they always promise to call you back and have not called once. Direct Energy is coming Friday to put back in the water heater that still should be there and we shall see Reliance in court soon!

Replacement of our 20 year old Air Conditioner

Reliance Home Comfort came in with the best quote on the best air conditioner on the market. The installers kept the site clean and the AC is the quietest ever A+. I recently had my annual check up and I can honestly say that Reliance Home Comfort is the most professional, easy to work with, and reliable company I have ever worked with. Their salesperson is no nonsense and truly knowledgable. All my questions were answered completely. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for any of their home heating or cooling needs. They also service many of the models on the market - so even if you don't need a new one - they can likely service your existing system.

Water tank

I am not sure if I would be recommending Reliance as I have a complaint and I have yet to hear back from them about it. I have emailed them, sent in a letter and still nothing. My first service call with them was very poor. It was a Saturday and they told me I would get a call from there contractor Hot Sauce within 3 hours. After 3 hours no call. Each time I had to call back they never had my information and I had to wait while they found my info in there system. They said I am sorry the contractor has gone home for the day they will call you before 9am.

The bootom line is do not call them on the weekend as there weekend contractors do not get back to you.
