"Technician, Minton, who is a fellow Veteran (he has was in the Marines) was very professional, polite and answered all my questions in a way I could understand. He checked the air handler unit inside the house and the condenser unit outside. He didn’t rush like he was in a hurry to go to the next job and went about his work in a very thorough manner- which I really appreciated. Good job!!!"
