Darren and his crew from Modern Hearing and Air were extremely considerate and the took time to ask if I had any questions before the work began and then knowledgeably and kindly answered all.
Extreme care was taken to protect our home and all debris was cleaned when the job was done, would have never known they were even here.
Darren and Keegan took time to show me the air and furnace install. They explained details about each unit and what to expect and also how to use the units, humidifier and thermostat.
Extremely pleased with the workmanship, knowledge and character of Darren and the crew. Highly recommend.

Modern did a fantastic job. Corbin is an excellent salesman, he performed all the calculations other salespeople refused to do and designed a system perfectly sized for our house.
The install team worked quickly and carefully and had our whole system setup and working by 4 in the afternoon.
We couldn’t be more happy with our heat pump system and would recommend them to anyone.

The Modern team installed a new Lennox AC and Heater last week. Sam, Loren and Aaron were professional and fast. Sam kept me posted on progress as they working and provided a “tour” of my AC. Aaron gave me the same “tour” of my new furnace. Great people to work with. Shout out to Nick who helped me navigate the home warranty maze! Much appreciated. The whole team was outstanding.

American Home Shield assigned Modern to replace my furnace and AC. I questioned their ability and pricing. I performed a competitive analysis on the pricing and vetted out their abilities with local HVAC techs. They checked out enough to allow AHS to use them to perform my equipment replacement. I am HAPPY I let them do the work.

1. They did a great job on the install. 2. Their customer service is kind and effective. 3. When a loud rattle came from the unit 2 months after install, they came out and fixed it same day at no cost. 4. Their techs are knowledgeable and chill. They can hold a relatable conversation.

I am now on a maintenance plan with Modern and trust them with all of my plumbing, heating, and cooling needs.
