Customer Testimonials
“McDowell & Son Heating and Air Conditioning did a wonderful job in everything from initial contact all the way to job completion and follow-up. We can highly recommend Terry and his team! :-)”
“While I was gone in Belize on a missions trip, my wife who was 7 months pregnant, had the misfortune of our furnace going out. McDowell and Son brought her heat on a Saturday, diagnosed the problem, and ordered parts. Our furnace was fixed that following week faster and less expensive than our neighbors furnace that was fixed by another company, and they did not get portable heat or Saturday service!”
“We had McDowell out this past Thursday for a service call and as usual we were impressed with the service we received. Terry took the time to research our warranty and Anthony was on time (early!), friendly, and helpful. We are very happy to continue to be McDowell customers!”
“Excellent service! My A/C broke and I was desperate for assistance because the heat wave had everyone booked for the remainder of the week. Terri called me back and walked me through what he anticipated was the problem and even explained how I might fix it myself (since his technicians were also booked for a few days). He was so thorough in his explanation and patient with me, considering I’m a person who has never even given an A/C unit a second glance. He even offered to sell me a spare part that I could install myself! He genuinely seemed to care about my situation and even told me to call him back and give him the resolution (even if it wasn’t with the help of his company) just so he would know I was taken care of. I trust his service would’ve reflected the same care and diligence if I had used this company.”
“Thank you so much. You, Terry, and your technicians have been wonderful to work with! We will recommend you highly to our friends and family.”
“Two years ago, Terry installed two Mitsubishi mini-split heaters at out house on Seven Mile Hill Road outside of Mosier. Within the warranty period, the condenser went out recently. Terry and his team made three trips to the house to diagnose and replace the defective condenser with a new one without charge. His work was prompt and in a difficult situation. It is such a great relief to have worked with a professional who stood behind his work with pride and reliability. We are up and running…and happy. We highly recommend McDowell & Son.”
“For several years we dealt with an intermittent problem with our furnace where it would cycle off before reaching the thermostat set point. The diagnosis by another HVAC company was that we had a cracked core and needed a whole new furnace. Before taking that step, I asked a local builder who he thought was the best HVAC guy in the Gorge and he told me Terry McDowell. He was right! Terry found an incredibly difficult-to-diagnose vacuum problem related to the way the system was originally installed. His persistence and smarts saved me thousands of dollars. Terry is sharp, honest, and professional. I’ll never call anyone else for HVAC work.”
