Today, Adam came to install two UV units. We have been with Dave’s Heating & Air Company for more than 20 years, even through a change in ownership. We still recognize many of their technicians from the old days. Adam is very knowledgeable about HVAC systems. He is friendly, professional, and clearly takes pride in his work. We were very pleased and grateful to have him help us. Dave’s company is lucky to have employees like Adam.
