After a few disappointing calls with local heating and air conditioning specialists, I called Simmons (Adam Simmons) and left a message. Unlike the other calls where I was told that it would cost me $100 to have a specialist show up to just diagnose the problem, Adam told me he charges $85 an hour and that he can usually fix the problem within the hour. I took a chance and it worked out perfectly. Adam fixed our heating problem in about 45 minutes. He also explained to me what was going on and gave me comfort in knowing how to handle future issues and maintenance requirements. I recommend Simmons before trying some of the other service providers in the area.
Pros: Intelligent (16 years exp), affordable (does not charge $100 for visit)
Cons: Charges by the hour which may make some feel uncomfortble but he was able to fix my problem within the hour
