1. Overcharging for Common HVAC Parts

Claim: Customers report being charged highly inflated prices for common HVAC components such as capacitors.

Examples:

One customer reported being charged $387 for a capacitor, a part that typically retails for $20–$40, and was then pressured into a $15,000 system replacement, even though the system was functioning properly.

2. Recommending Unnecessary or Fictitious Repairs

Claim: Technicians reportedly diagnosed HVAC systems as needing major repairs or replacements that were later proven unnecessary by independent inspectors.

Examples:

A customer was told their blower motor was "damaged" and was quoted $959 for replacement. A second technician later confirmed the motor was functioning normally.

In multiple cases, AllTech technicians recommended full unit replacements when less invasive, lower-cost fixes would suffice.

3. "Energy Saver" and "Run Generator" Devices of Fictitious name

Claim: Customers allege being sold or recommended mysterious devices labeled as “energy savers” or “run generators,” which lack clear function or necessity.

Examples:

These devices are not standard components in HVAC systems, and the technical purpose is often left vague during service calls. Some suspect they are fictitious or unnecessary add-ons used to inflate bills.

4. High-Pressure Sales Tactics and Misleading Consultations

Claim: Multiple reviewers say they were subjected to high-pressure sales pitches, often during "free inspections" that led to aggressive upselling or invasive photo-taking without follow-through.

Examples:

Customers report being visited by salespeople rather than licensed technicians.

Technicians allegedly photographed HVAC systems but failed to provide itemized quotes, and followed up with repeated calls to close deals.

5. Poor Follow-Through, Communication Failures, and Billing Issues

Claim: Customers allege that AllTech’s office routinely fails to return calls, cancels scheduled visits, or charges for services that were not rendered.

Examples:

One complaint details a canceled installation appointment that was still billed.

Another customer filed a refund request for a same-day contract cancellation and struggled to receive the money back.

6. Corporate Obfuscation or Identity Shifting

Claim: There are signs of shifting names, addresses, or operational fronts that may confuse consumers.

Examples:

A listing for AllTech Services Heating & AC at their Sterling address is marked “permanently closed” on MapQuest, yet their website remains active.

The company also operated under names like Wittman Mechanical Contractors.
