TESTIMONIALS

I could not have asked for a more professional, courteous and knowledgeable group of people to handle the installation of my furnace and do the weatherization on my home. From the first contact person in your office until the completion of the work, it was a very positive and painless experience. Thank you all so very much. A special shout out to Dylan, Pablo and Steve, you guys are great.

Lana

We had a furnace placed in today. Firstly, we are so thankful for this organization as we had a furnace that was original to our home in 1995. We are a family with 5 children, so this was very much needed living up in the mountain. We get extreme winters up here so we are so appreciative of their existence. We had Pablo and Dylan. We couldn’t have asked for better humans to have done the job for our family. They are extremely knowledgeable, so organized and considerate of keeping our home clean, and they were the nicest guys. We felt so comfortable having them in our home for the entire day. They worked so hard and we are so grateful for every minute they spent with us. Thank you, guys! Contractors absolutely the best and so happy with the people and work that we have received. You’re all such a blessing :-)

I want to thank the northern Colorado crew who worked hard to provide me a new furnace and outstanding weatherization upgrades. Dylan and the rest of the furnace crew were absolute professionals and were gracious and kind. THANK YOU one and all.

Michael

I want to give thanks to the Energy Resource Center-to each staff member I dealt with either over the phone, in person or by email. They were all very respectful friendly, and professional. They communicated to me in advance regarding the process and the expected time frame for completion. Bill was great at getting the ball rolling. Bill would contact me to go over the schedule of when the crew would be coming to my home to do their part. There was a special part that needed to be ordered and I was kept informed of the status of that. Pablo and Dylan just recently finished installing the furnaces and they did an excellent job. They were great at answering my questions and explaining important information to me about the furnaces. Also, they were very careful when going into my home with tools, ladders, etc...They also did a great job of cleaning up afterwards. My home is a much older home and I know there were some challenges, which they handled very professionally.
Thanks so much!!!

I am so impressed with the installation of my new furnace! Pablo and Dylan were very professional, knowledgeable, and personable. They made quick work of the installation and made sure to clean up after the work was done. Their explanations of what they were doing and why were very helpful. Thank you both for making this installation a pleasant experience. Thank you also to Bill for his expertise, explanation of what needed to be done, and answering all my questions. ERC has provided the best service I’ve had in a long while. It is very much appreciated!

Dawn & Jim

From the initial acceptance of my application to the installation of the new furnace and from the office staff and supervisory staff to the boots on the ground workers, there is nothing that I would change. Professional, skilled, courteous and kind, this experience has so far restored my faith in good construction people. Thanks Dylan & Pablo and bill and John and crew of ERC staff in Loveland. I am happy.

Jean

Pablo and Dylan did a fantastic job installing my furnace! Dylan was extremely helpful in showing me how to operate my new thermostat and getting it setup. Both were very professional, proficient and friendly. Thanks for all of your hard work, and thank you Energy Resource.
