I woke up to no heat. An appointment made for noon, the same day. Alan showed up, quickly identified the problem and re-established heat. Because my furnace is over 20 years old, Alan suggested I might want to get a quote for a new furnace. Fifty percent of my repair charge would be applied to purchase of a new unit. This is the second time I’ve used Vern & Ellsworth Hann. Both experiences were flawless from my initial call to completion of the project. As a new Ohio resident, it’s a relief to have a top notch heating and air conditioning company in my pocket. Thank you V.E. Hann

Here we are, a couple weeks since my last review. Verne and Ellsworth Hann just replaced my gas furnace and gas water heater. Notch another 5 star review in the books!! Once again everything about this project was flawless. Communication is helpful and timely. I wish I could remember the names of everyone in the office, who helped me. They all have been wonderful. Karen, Nancy and Patricia I believe.

My Project Manager, Kevin, was perfect to work with. He presented me with several options while clearly explaining pros, cons and costs of each. He followed up, 30 minutes after the job was done, to make sure we were happy. Our installers, Barry and Jayson were great, The made sure we were without heat and hot water for a minimal amount of time. They kept us informed during all aspects of the installation. The explained everything they did upon completion of the job and patiently fielded our questions. But best of all, they threw the ball for our dog every time the had to go to their truck.

Thanks again V.E, Hann.

We have used Verne & Ellsworth Hann for 25 years for yearly tune ups and repairs. We would trust no one else. Three years ago they installed an air conditioning system in our old, large Shaker Heights home. They did a fantastic job. Other companies who install AC in these old homes will tell you that they can only put duct work to the 2nd floor. Verne & Ellsworth Hann was able to snake the air conditioning ducts down into almost all of our 1st floor rooms. Their workers were professional, neat and efficient and we love the new system. This past fall upon our annual boiler inspection, the technician found that we had a crack in our 20+ year old boiler. He was able to remove some heating units to nurse it along until we could schedule a new boiler installation. This was completed in December (including running new return lines and asbestos removal). Again, the work was all completed professionally, efficiently and neatly. I always recommend Verne & Ellsworth Hann to my friends. I would recommend them to anyone without hesitation.

I can't say enough good things about this company! They were very responsive and able to get things done in record time. Their price was excellent and the best we got of several estimates. I especially appreciated their healthcare hero discount. They were respectful of social distancing and very clean, courteous and kind. I appreciated Brian texting me updates and his clear communication throughout the process. We got both a furnace and A/C and we are never going with another company again! We will be customers for life! Thank you. Thank you!

Straight forward pricing and quick to diagnose then fix the issue I had with my furnace. They gave me a 4 hour window for when the technician would show and called me about 15 minutes prior to them arriving. It was $90 base charge for the service and $24 every 15 minutes. In and out in an hour and a half. The technician explained everything that he was doing to troubleshoot the issue while I watched. Will definitely be using them in the future!

From the very first contact Verne & Ellsworth Hann, Inc (VEH) was incredibly responsive and professional! During a heat wave, my A/C system came to the end of its life. They were out the very next morning to check things out, and I had an estimate with four different options within hours. Because I was without A/C, VEH also rearranged their schedule, so that my new system could be installed in days. The whole process from start to finish took less than a week which is practically unheard today. I highly recommend VEH for their service, quality, and customer satisfaction.

Verne & Ellsworth Hann did a great job installing a new boiler for me last year. Joe S. was here today for the annual maintenance. He was exactly on time, very friendly and most importantly so knowledgeable. He helped me adjust my third floor radiators and caught a leak I had not noticed in another radiator. He explained how the vents work to help me manage my system to meet my needs. I highly recommend Joe S. and the rest of the team.

From start to finish, our experience with Verne & Ellsworth Hann has been five star worthy. We were in need of both an AC and furnace replacement, and after receiving estimates from multiple businesses, we knew we wanted to trust Verne & Ellsworth. Tim was wonderful to work with during the proposal stage of the process. He took the time to answer all of our questions, and he was extremely knowledgeable about the installation process and equipment. We appreciated that his expertise went beyond just sales! Tony, the project manager, was wonderful enough to contact me as soon as an opening was available so that we could get the equipment installed sooner than initially scheduled. I was most impressed with the installers, Greg and Sean, who went above and beyond! They worked tirelessly for 2 days, and they were professional, kind, and explained everything to me once the installation was completed. The best part is that there was no mess after they finished! I couldn’t believe how clean and organized their work area was even after day 1/2 of the project. I just assume that I’ll always have a mess to clean up after having any kind of work done in the house, and it meant a lot to me that they took extra care to respect our home. We absolutely recommended Verne & Ellsworth, you won’t regret it!

This was a huge job from 9:00am to 3:00pm. He explained to me what he was doing and then gave me a tour of the completed work. He cleaned the area after the work in the kitchen and basement. I now have a kitchen sink that is really working well. Thank you Jimmy and Verne & Ellsworth Hann I will continue to use your services.

The furnace in my home was malfunctioning. The techs from Verne and Ellsworth Hann made two trips to my home to fix it.

Verne and Ellsworth Hann are definitely worth checking out. My furnace died, and my AC was very old. Working with Chris was a pleasant and straightforward person to work with. He immediately realized that the unit was too big and to reduce the cost of gas and electricity, he suggested going for a smaller size. I anticipated it would take some time, however they were able to schedule the installation quickly. The installation crew was outstanding, diligent, and professional, arrived on time, communicated well (to me that is a plus). Every time I went to check on their progress during the day, I was amazed by how much they were accomplishing. They would also ask if I had any other questions. Nothing was left behind when they left but a brand-new heating and cooling system and a very content customer.

We recently moved to the east side and needed a new HVAC company to service our house. These guys came highly recommended via multiple family members. We’ve had them out to our house a couple of times now for basic system maintenance, to troubleshoot issues with our AC, and to ultimately do a full system replacement. Every team member we’ve interacted with has been professional, friendly, and a pleasure to work with. The team worked hard to get our new AC up and running in one day due to the 85-degree temps outside. They even pointed out an issue with the venting on our water tank that was missed during the home inspection. Fixing that will probably get us a couple of extra years out of the tank as a result. One of the best service companies we’ve ever worked with.

Jayson even went so far as to ensure that my climbing vines growing on the fence surrounding the outdoor compressors remained undisturbed during the replacement process. I consider this type of service above and beyond. Verne & Ellsworth Hann are not an expensive company, but the service provided and the quality of the materials installed make the price differential worth it. Our home is now comfortable.

I have used VEH for several maintenance issues in prior years. Last summer they advised me that I should think about getting a new AC unit for 2017 as my old was not efficient and had a leak that was costly to repair. I decided to take their advice and get some quotes at the end of winter 2017. Chris met me at the house for a quote on a Friday evening outside of normal business hours. He was professional, friendly, and provided me a few options for AC. He answered my follow up questions via email very quickly, and although they were not the cheapest quote I still chose them for the job based upon my confidence in their ability to do the job and back it up in the future. Chris applied zero pressure in his sales pitch. He installed the unit in one day, better than his promised expectation of a day and a half. They were clean, respectful, and came in at the quoted price.

During an extremely cold week our old boiler finally gave out. After quotes from 3 companies, we decided to go with VEH because they did the best job of explaining our options and they had the best price. More importantly, they had the best price because they matched the size of the boiler to what we actually needed. (The other 2 companies acknowledged, after some prodding, that they had priced a boiler that was about 25% too large, because the line they represented didn't have a boiler that matched the size we actually needed.)

When Bill Hann, one of the owners, was at our house to do a full review and plan for the specifics, my 11 year old son spent the hour following him around asking a million questions. (He literally asked about 50 questions, everything from how the vents on the end of the radiators worked, to what happened to the steam that turned back into water, to how long the new boiler would last.) Bill took the time to answer all of them; I'm guessing my son now knows more about steam heating systems than any middle schooler in Northeast Ohio! What I appreciated was the reason by behind Bill taking the time to answer the questions. He has a genuine passion for his work that comes through in how well he explains what is going on, what your options are, and why he is recommending what he is recommending. I'm the sort of person who likes to know the details of what choices I'm making, but even if you are the sort of person who just wants the expert to make the decisions, it is good to know the expert has put some thought into his recommendations.

During the several days that it took to get the work done, VEH loaned us some space heaters to keep the edge off the cold in the house. While they were doing the work, they coordinated their people and the subcontractors (asbestos mitigation) efficiently. The work got done quickly and will minimal disruption. And when Bill came to do the final walk through and orient us to the system and emergency power backup, he brought a VEH hard hat for my son!

The next summer, we decided to renovate our kitchen and picked VEH to do the realignment of the radiators because of our experience with them. As we were walking through the basement and discussing what needed to be done, Bill pointed out the extra T-valve they had installed when they put in the new boiler. Having this T-valve already installed, a part that cost a couple of dollars up front, saved us several hundred dollars because it meant they didn't have to cut into the existing pipe in order to get access. When I asked Bill why he had thought to put it in originally, he said they always did it because boilers last so long (30 years, 50 years, sometimes longer) that there is a high likelihood that the homeowner (or a subsequent homeowner) is going to need it. Bill talked about going into old homes where someone had installed a T-valve 30, 40, 50 years ago and thinking about the person who had done that originally and admiring their foresight, kind of like how you look at an oak tree and appreciate the person who had the foresight to plant it decades before. And that he wanted to leave that sort of legacy. I joked to him that this was one instance where he was going to get to eat his own cooking.

If you are installing a boiler, you are probably installing it in an old home. And old homes last in ways new homes won't. Part of what is special about an old home is the connection you have to families that lived there decades before you and that will live there decades after you. If you want the work done right for a fair price, I highly recommend VEH. They care about the work they do and the legacy they are leaving behind in your house.

I should mention that Bill and VEH had previously quoted installing A/C for us. We ended up not doing the project and I felt bad about having had them spend time working up a quote. However, at our first meeting about the boiler, Bill mentioned he remembered doing the quote and that it would be easy to update when we wanted to move forward. His graciousness put me at ease.

We first hired Verne and Ellsworth Hann about 10 years ago in our 1917 center hall Colonial to fix our cold main floor and swelteringly hot upstairs. They removed the old boiler and the redundant asbestos covered octopus boiler. Then they split the house into upper and lower zones with two smaller boilers. Then we added whole house air conditioning. This became the most comfortable house I have ever lived in!

Several years later, we moved into a larger 1917 Tudor and hired Verne and Ellsworth Hann again to add air conditioning to the main floor. Our friends now love to come over in the hot, humid days of summer to cool off.

Finally, when two other companies (referred from our home warranty program) could not solve the water hammer noises coming from our steam heat system, we called VE Hann again. They quickly identified the problem, changed out and re-plumbed several clogged return pipes, and the loud noises were gone.

Their initial quote might seem a little high at first, but they'll take care of the job properly and follow through on work. In the long run, you'll save more money getting it right the first time. They'll keep your house clean and you'll feel comfortable having their polite team in your home.

These guys have bailed me out of a jam more than once. We've used them for new ductwork, a new water heater, and most recently a new furnace and a/c. All in older homes where passing a Point of Sale inspection is a must (and they do with flying colors). They are professional, down-to-earth, and their price is always better than the competitors. Chris is easy to work with and never engages in high pressure sales tactics like some other big-name local HVAC companies. He explains the problem, lays out options, and gives his guidance on the best route to take. I still feel like I am making the decision after being educated versus being pushed into an over-priced solution or a scam of a service-plan. I love that I can trust VE&H and will continue using them for all things HVAC.

I have never experienced such care in a contractor's work. I got multiple estimates and they were in the middle. I never pick the low bidder because they usually disappoint you. Also got a recommendation from a friend which helped in my decision between the middle bidders. I must say that I was not disappointed in any way. They showed up promptly, covered the path in my home to move the equipment in and out and did a fabulous job. Even after installing the AC unit on the side of the house on a rainy day, when all was said and done, there was no evidence in my home that there were even here except I have a new HVAC system running quietly on my basement.
Excellent contractors.

V&E Hann did a fantastic job with our installation. A previous owner had pulled out all the cold air return ductwork in our utility room because it was blocking the laundry area. Obviously this is not up to code, so a big part of the installation was adding that back in. They were super careful to check in with us about the ductwork and our laundry area as they did the work and came up with a system that barely takes up any more room than not having the ductwork did. They also removed our cement utility sink and installed a new one and cleaned up and improved the awkward drain system that had previously been there. We have had a chance to use both AC and heat since it is a Cleveland fall and both are working perfectly. The AC unit is shockingly quiet, quieter than our neighbors’ relatively new units, and much much quieter than our 30+ year old monster was. It sounds like a big fan. We did find a small leak in the pipe that drains condensation from the furnace but they came out within days and fixed it up. They really are fantastic to work with!

This company is the real deal. Being a perfectionist, I rarely find a contractor I am happy with. They do business the right way! Calls were always answered, showed up when scheduled, cleaned up after job was done, work was done flawlessly. So hard to find a company like them anymore. Only ones I will use from now on!

The installers were super friendly, clean, and professional. We have an older house so there were a lot of things to figure out and decisions to make when installing A/C, and we always felt we understood all the steps happening and options available.

For having so many people all over the house for such an extended period (3 weeks), it all felt very easy. We also appreciated the incredibly consistent 8-4 schedule every day - that was so helpful in managing our dogs and everything else.

Everyone in the office has been great, too. They also handled all the permitting and communication with the city. Honestly from the first meeting at our house until the end installation, it's been amazing. I couldn't imagine a project like this could go so smoothly.

Overall, we could not have been more impressed and will always recommend this company to anyone and everyone.

We have been using Verne and Ellsworth Hann for all our heating and plumbing needs over the past 2.5 years. This past month we had the pleasure of hiring them to install whole house central air. I absolutely cannot recommend this company highly enough.

Truly, we are so blown away by the care, consideration, and meticulous-attention-to-detail taken at every stage of the AC installation by Bill Hann, Greg, Sean and Sean. I honestly have to say we have never experienced such impeccable work done in our home. Absolute master-level craftsmanship - our home was well cared for in every step with the utmost level of professionalism.

If you want a job done right THIS is the company to call.

We used Verne & Ellsworth Hann to install a new AC system from scratch, and I couldn't be happier. The co-owner, Bill worked with us to come up with a unique plan that fit our needs and budget. The guys that installed were exceptionally professional, courteous, and thorough. They delivered everything we could have asked for.

It's the little things that count when you're bringing in outsiders to do work in your home. From the beginning the guys at V&EH are absolute class. They laid down carpet protectors, cleaned thoroughly each day, and were considerate of our very skittish cat that was none too pleased to have outsiders in her home.

Whenever you do work on your home get multiple quotes but I strongly recommend to include them in your quoting process. You will not be disappointed.

Second experience with these folks, neither have been great. The technician showed up and was professional. He respected the social distancing in place at the time of this review and wore booties on his shoes when entering the home.

The service call was $98 to walk through the door, seems steep, but I knew that going in. The issues with our boiler was diagnosed to be leak in the quarter turn valve (which I suspected initially). The cost to repair was $350 + the $98 diagnostic (not rolled into the cost of repair as many companies do).

The cost for the valve install was around $250 higher than any other company I've worked with int he past. I was quoted between $75 and $100 from three other plumbers for this work.

In short: They'll show up right on time and over charge you.

My hot water tank failed on a weekend evening, and they were able to help me over the phone on the evening it occurred, with help of pictures they had of my set-up (benefits of a long-standing relationship), and then add that repair to the appointment I already had scheduled for HVAC tune-up the following Monday. On Tuesday, it was all done. They had to replace the tank, but saved expense of replacing the still new concentrator.

I have lived in a house with a boiler and no air conditioning for 27 years. It is a great option when you have a child with Asthma. Empty nesters now, we decided to see if we could reasonably cool the house. We did the right thing and had other HVAC companies come in for ideas and estimates. While it was clear why they thought the ductless system was the best solution, I did not want that big thing on the walls of my cute little house. I reached out to Bill of Verne & Ellsworth Hann. He heard me when I described what I did NOT want. After a thorough evaluation of our home, he explained in detail what he could do that would work within our budget. It is pretty amazing what they designed to put in the house to accomplish the goal. I received a full education on how to operate and care for the system. Secretly, I did not care how it worked but I listened since I could do it in an air conditioned room. The guys were on time, friendly and considerate. They are neat and cleaned up after the work was done.They left it in better shape than they found it.

Please note: We love Bill Hahn and his team.A few years ago we had a boiler replaced by Verne & Ellsworth Hann. I can't say enough about how positive that experience was. We try to stay with a rule of 3 estimates for something this big. From the beginning we had no doubt that Bill would come up with a creative solution for this problem.And he did.

There is no such thing as a prefect installation. And this one was no exception. Given the fact that the houses in The Heights are always unique to themselves. There were a few minor hiccups but I was never concerned about their ability for the solution that was discussed.

I told the owner that we had family coming in for the holiday and they ended up sending 3 crews the very next day to complete this job in one day instead of the usual 2 days. Most professional and service oriented company I have ever dealt with. They did an amazing job installing all the new equipment and even called a few days later to make sure everything was still working properly.

Just wanted to say how impressed (but not surprised) by Verne & Ellworth Hann's work. Part of me doesn’t want to plaster the walls because the copper lines look so pretty. The lines were run perfectly parallel; every joint was neatly done; the house was cleaner when the crew left than when they arrived. Even though their work is hidden in the final product, the pride and skill shown tells me the crews are true craftsmen.

Also, when they were done, out of curiosity I asked them to walk me through what was done. Even though it was the end of the day, they took the time to explain everything and answer all my questions.

They were upfront with their pricing--$90 to come to the door and then $24 per 15 minutes thereafter, but we later learned that a competent plumber could have diagnosed the problem from our phone description and given us an estimate for a replacement water heater over the phone. So we paid $90 for an estimate--not credited against any work--for a replacement traditional water heater that we do not want and some additional incorrect code information and disparagement of tankless heaters--our preferred replacement-- that they will not install. Oh, and the diagnosis of the noises the boiler was still making was wrong and no advice on dealing with the leaking water was offered.

Most professional and knowledgeable boiler company I have ever spoken or did business with!! This company has old school values of being professional, providing customer service and being knowledgeable and getting the job done right. They really came to my rescue when my old boiler caught fire and it was freezing out, others companies I spoke with didnt know a wrench from a hammer, needles to say I was terrified to let some amateurs come replace my boiler. When I called and talk to Bill, he was extremely knowledgeable and professional and was able to start working to replace asap, other companies didn't care and said they could get me on schedule for a couple weeks out. This company cared that I needed heat asap and did just that. I had a new boiker and heat installed asap. They even contacted me during process to check in. Every team member who came in my home left no sign of them being there, they actually left my basement in better shape than it was before, all professional and all knowledgeable. They took time to work around my schedule to show me and boyfriend how boiler works. Every company should take a note from Verne & Ellsworth Hann on being the best in your industry. Trust me if you're gonna to spend thousands, you want to be in good hands. You're in good hands with this company. Thank you all very much, I appreciate everything you did to accommodate me!!

I usually do not write reviews, but I must say that after the experience I had with Verne & Ellsworth Hann, the least I can do is let others know about it. It is never good news to hear that your furnace is beyond repair. I had been a participant in a home insurance program where I thought they would always send a company out to fix it no matter what. Of course on the coldest day of 2017 I was told that it could no longer be fixed. The company that came out left some numbers on a piece of paper and told me to call to set up an appointment for a future install. I called another company - same thing, just numbers and a weak promise that they may be able to come out later in the month.

When I called the Hanns, the process was completely different. They cared about making sure I understood what my options were. I was given a detailed explanation on three different price levels for a furnace and an air conditioner. I had questions. They had answers. It was an actual conversation where I did not feel at all that I was being pushed toward the highest priced option. I was told about things that could be added on, but again no pressure. Potential complications related to my ducting were explained. I actually felt like I knew something about HVAC after talking to Bill Hann several times.

Best of all, they were in a hurry to get the equipment put in my home after I decided to go with them. From the point of my first phone call to the final installation only one week had gone by. I recently had my entire kitchen and basement redone and never thought that work of this magnitude could get done in one week. The crew that came into my house was kind and considerate from the first day. Drop cloths went everywhere. They made sure I understood what they had to do and where things would go. My daughter was home sick and didn't wake up once. The new features were explained in detail. A complimentary service plan was given.

This will probably be the only time in my life that I will be shopping for a furnace and/or air conditioner. I felt it was important to share with whoever is looking for services in this area - you must do yourself a favor and choose to work with Verne & Ellsworth Hann Inc.

Verne and Ellsworth came to our house to correct a leaking boiler. A different vendor had tied our existing boiler into a floor heating system and the system leaked during the first winter. I don't remember the name of the person who was here, but they quickly identified what the issue was (something about not enough room for the pressure of the added system). They installed an additional expansion tank and the replaced some small parts that rusted.

It's a comfort to work with a company that I can trust! The work was completed quickly and within budget.

We called multiple companies to look at our century home which never had air conditioning or ductwork.

He knew what to do before even setting foot into our home with just a few questions. His crews were clean, on time every day, and explained exactly what they were doing at the beginning and ending of each work day. They finished a few days ahead of schedule and we’re cool as cucumbers.

Bill Hann spent a large amount of time reviewing my current steam boiler setup that has plagued us with less than ideal performance for 2+ years in our 90 year old home. He spent a lot of time talking with me to understand my situation as well as taking a holistic approach to dealing with our current boiler. He then offered a number of options to consider ranging in both price and timeframe of when the work should be considered. His staff was courteous and his response time was very prompt, especially considering it is such a busy time of the season for him. We are looking forward to working with him and his crew in the future.

Don't waste your time, not doing their work! hope there's a money back guarantee!! maintenance is doing vacuum on the boiler - thats it. laughable :)
guy came over looked at the boiler and started selling - repair this and that , lets do that etc - without even proper inspection. he offered to change the tube part for $ 40 but I decline because he just came to the house. I would have him do the repairs after doing some diagnosis to keep the boiler in shape. After he was done with the vacuum, it was pay time right. he send me this email about the inspection and there's one there that said instructed customer to flush the water lol -- IT NEVER HAPPENED.
Stay away, find some people that do work properly!!

I worked with Bill to solve a long-standing issue in that the east wing of the 2nd floor was not being heated and cooled satisfactorily. A major renovation years earlier went well except for the HVAC redesign. I got 4 quotes to fix my problem and got 4 different solutions... all around the same cost but very different in approach and equipment. Bill's was on the mark (without writing a short story, I can confirm his was the the best solution). I am extremely satisfied with the work and result. I have used many different HVAC contractors over the past 20 years and none come close to the knowledge, skill and work ethic of Verne & Ellsworth Hann, but especially Bill Hann.

I live on the second floor of a condo and had an AC issue where the wiring to my roof condenser unit (3 floors above me) didn’t turn on because a kitchen remodeler ripped the wiring out between my thermostat, air handler and roof unit. I didn’t know it until the cooling season started and the kitchen was already remodeled. Verne & Ellsworth Hann was able to figure out a work-around that didn’t require a costly demo to get into the area where the wires were ripped out. The company employees and technicians put their heads together and Ray and Allan, the technicians, installed a wireless transmitter that “talked” to all the units. . . The roof unit, the condo unit and the thermostat! I had AC again and was so relieved I didn’t have to tear out ceilings, trace wires, etc. I’m happy with the work performed and highly recommend Verne & Ellsworth Hann. They saved the day!

I had a furnace installed last year, and recently reached out to Chris Hann regarding follow up services that I thought were included with the purchase. He confirmed via email that I was correct, but when I tried to schedule the service, I was told it was not included. I mentioned that Chris had clearly confirmed it via email, and then got a voicemail back from him talking to me like I was an idiot for expecting him to follow through on what he agreed to via email. Apparently he misread my email, but instead of simply saying that he misread it and gave me incorrect info, he got a VERY nasty attitude and told me to go elsewhere for services - so that is what I will be doing, and suggest others do as well.
When I submitted this complaint to them, Chris wrote back a largely inaccurate response trying to defend himself, which made me even more aware of the lack of professionalism from this company. Now I understand why I saw so many other reviews calling them rude.

Recently I had to replace the steam / boiler type furnace in my house. For such a big investment, I decided to get three quotes. The third company that came to inspect the furnace was Verne & Ellsworth Hann Inc. They are in my neighborhood, and I like to support locally owned and operated businesses. I was initially very impressed that one of the co-owners, Bill Hann, showed up to inspect my furnace and quote the job. My first impression changed pretty dramatically soon after. He was not friendly at all, and certainly didn't have the demeanor you'd expect from someone trying to sell you a very expensive product and service. When I told him I was getting other quotes things went from bad to worse. He proceeded to get very aggressive and downright rude with his attitude and questions. He insisted that his was the only company in the area that could do this type of job properly. He asked how much I had been quoted, and when I mentioned one of the quotes I had received, he scoffed and said there was no way the job would be done properly for that amount. He then proceeded to ask aggressive questions about what they would or wouldn't be doing as part of the job. I am not a timid person, and I felt like I was involved in an argument simply to get a quote. I felt like I was being attacked, and like my intelligence was being insulted. At one point I nearly asked him to leave my house he was being so rude, but by that point I wanted to at least see what price they would quote, since according to him hiring any other company would be a disaster! When he left he promised to get me a quote right away. I'm still waiting for that quote, which apparently he decided not to submit. I hired another company to do the job, and have been very happy with my new furnace. I certainly never expected to be treated so poorly by a 4th generation family owned business. Apparently the previous generations knew a lot more about customer service than the current one!

I am so glad we got a second opinion from an honest and reputable company like VEH as it literally saved us a lot of money and hassle.

V&E Hann installed a commercial boiler to heat our Shaker Heights home several years ago, so when we wanted to update our HVAC system, we called Bill Hann. We started planning the project in late fall 2019, and his team worked at our home daily for three weeks during February/March 2020 to install a new zoned AC system utilizing the latest technology from Bryant.

The coolant was loaded last week, and the system was fine-tuned just in time for warmer temps. Today with outdoor temps at 83F and very humid, the house is nice and cool throughout. Importantly, the Bryant system is so quiet! As we sat on the patio, we couldn’t even hear the sound of the compressor from behind the house.

Pandemic 2020 has brought both of our adult children back to Cleveland, so we’re using bedrooms throughout the house, including those on the third floor, and I’m happy to report that the temps up there are just as comfortable as on the first and second floors of the house. The touchpad controls are easy to use and offer additional features (add app to iPhone, etc.)

It was important to examine the differences in the Unico and conventional systems, and Bill arranged with his customers to allow us the opportunity to see for ourselves how they operated. This was enormously helpful in our decision-making as Bill helped us select the best system for our home. V&E Hann have a great crew of professionals who worked diligently to minimize disruption and maximize efficiency.

We are very pleased with V&E Hann, Bill Hann and the entire team that worked on our project and the very quiet Bryant system!!

Mixed and generally a disappointment. I called them because they were local and 4th generation, which I respect, and seemed very credible to me. However, with my past history as an exec with a 700+ truck service co myself, and being a tech/dispatch trainer, it was surprising to me that they would quote for a svc call + qtr hourly + parts and then bill me (per my own calculations) for time they waited at my home for quotes on parts from their office. I felt it was not professional to not itemize the bill as they quoted on the phone.

I was then quoted $489 addl to replace a blower motor, again with no written quote left and wondering how much I'd be charged for the travel time it would take for their tech to go and pick up the motor he said he had to do. Why not use a supplier that delivers to them and save their customers this cost? To charge a customer $100+/- hourly to pick up a motor locally seems like suspiciously bad service policy to me. If my cleaning company charged our customers to pick up a gallon of shampoo, we would be out of business. I went online and found a blower motor locally and since I've replaced those before in half an hour, was happy to pick one up and install it myself for around $100.

On the positive side, the tech was good and they were courteous about allowing me to postdate a check until I could get money moved to my checking account. In a bind I'd use them again, but feel they could tighten up their phone response to sound more friendly and more closely match their pricing and invoicing policies to what they actually tell the consumer at the initial phone call.

Our furnace went out and I called them. They were great about scheduling a service call quickly, notifying us when they were coming (text includes a photo of the service tech - great safety item), and diagnosing the problem. We wound up deciding to replace our old furnace and ac unit, and they did a fantastic job getting that work done quickly and expertly. It's very telling when you talk to employees and find out that most of them have been there for years. From the office staff to the technicians to Chris, one of the owners, everyone was great. Could not recommend more highly.

This company installed AC on 3rd floor to cool 2nd/3rd floor of an older home. The are a very professional company. They communicated well - office staff, on the job workers, lead sales representatives - all communicated very well. They explained the details of the job so I knew exactly what work they were doing and why they were doing it. They cleaned up there mess better than most venders I have ever used. The electric they referred me to for the wiring beat any of the electric quotes that I received from other electricians. I also attained multiple AC quotes from competitor companies in the area. Verne was slightly higher than 1 other quote but competitive on the others. The slightly higher fees were well worth the money spent. They use top of the line equipment whereas other local companies did not and this partially explains the higher price. They were also concerned with the aesthetics of the job. Thank very much.

We had uneven heat in our kitchen area. Chris Hann came out and looked at our situtation. He came up with a plan to remedy the problem. The technicians were out the very next day to add 2 additional vents to our kitchen area. Everything was done with great attention to detail, they even cleaned my dogs paws off after letting him outside.

Have to edit since we've had additional experiences on which to opine that may be of use to others. Given the age of our home (100+ years) and our ever changing needs, the Hann's have been invaluable to us in ensuring that we find the best service providers for every need. The depth and breadth of knowledge of this team is unparalleled - from referrals for electricians, painters, plumbers, architects and everything in between, the Hann's have helped us achieve every goal we've had for our home. Would recommend without reservation for any and all services.

Can't say enough about our experiences with the Hann's for the past two years. They did an awesome job installing our air conditioning - not an easy or quick job for our 100+ year old house and followed that up with excellent maintenance and tune up for our heating system. Bill even gave us an additional perfect radiator because our living room was too cold and was clearly missing one, and he just charged for the service time. Who does that? Did I mention the emergency visit when our tankless water heater exploded last winter when it was well below freezing out and his people showed up within the hour? Oh and the time the garbage disposal ate my wisk and they found a way to get the disposal under warrantee and again just charged us for the tech's time to install a new and better model? They even showed up to shame the flooring guys into doing a better job. My go to guys for everything! Will recommend for absolutely everything without hesitation.

My father in law has been using Verne & Ellsworth for over 35 years and trusts them, so when it was time to replace our aging HVAC system, it was an easy decision about who to call. Jake and Andrew came out to our home and spent 2 days removing our old equipment and replacing our system. They laid down floor coverings and were neat, respectful, on time, professional and very friendly. It was a pleasure to have them in our home. After they completed the job, the Pepper Pike Inspector came to look at the work and said these guys know exactly what they're doing and it's always top notch work - they never cut corners.

Technician Jeff came out today, he was a friendly enough guy but pretty quickly jumped to having the conversation of a whole new furnace (which we did eventually ask about later on). My main frustration lies in that we were told it would be $98 for diagnostics (fine) Jeff then told us that it would be $120 hourly charge for labor (this was sprung on us after he had already spent an hour in our home). I really think the company should tell customers this ahead of time so they aren’t surprised later on. I felt we weren’t getting much clarity on the issue with the furnace and decided to decline repair options presented to us. I will get a second opinion and likely move forward with a different company. I’m disappointed because I had heard such great things about this business.

Original post:
We needed quick help on New Year's Eve since our furnace in the house we just bought was failing. We knew Verne & Ellsworth Hann by reputation from over 50 years ago, so we called and the owner came to our house in a few hours. They loaned us space heaters in case we needed them, which we did for about 24 hours -- the team arrived on time and had everything installed and functioning in one day. Also very helpful with Ecobee thermostats and working with Home Warranty company.

I’m a very meticulous person and I have to say, these guys impressed me, not only with the total installation, start-to-finish, but with how amazingly neat they were every day they were on site. I would highly recommend V&E Hann to anyone.

I had V & E H Inc replace my 80's era furnace with a new high efficiency furnace and new AC in 2011. They were all around very good: good customer service, knowledgeable, quick with the installation. They were on the high end of quotes, but it was only a difference of a few hundred dollars, and in the end it was worth it. They put in a nice quality unit (York). They have their own metal fab guys, so the adapting from the old unit to the new was custom to my home, and top quality work. They were super helpful with the paperwork to get a tax credit for the upgrade. Total replacement took a day and a half.

Since then, the manufacturer had a recall on the gas valve - they came and replaced it for free. I had a bearing on the blower start to go a little more than a year after install, and they fixed it free under warranty. Had a control board fail as well one January morning, when we up early to leave town for vacation. Left a key - they came out that day, fixed it, locked up the place and didn't leave a footprint. Again free under warranty. I appreciate the professionalism and trust.

A power surge pushed our old boiler system into extinction in the middle of the winter Polar Vortex. With temperatures hovering in the single digits, Verne & Ellsworth Hann was able to help out with an emergency installation. In my opinion, this company went above and beyond what would be considered ordinary customer service. They were accommodating, professional and genuinely concerned about us as a family. When we have family or friends come over, we actually take them down in the basement to show off our new boiler – we’re actually proud of it!

Bryan replaced kitchen faucet supply line valves. The kitchen hot water had flecks of black debris. Online, I read that old supply valves or an old faucet could be the problem. The black specks persisted after the valves were replaced, so Bryan checked the faucet, taking off the faucet head from the flexible neck. Inside the faucet head was a pocket of black debris. I didn't know that the sprayer head unscrewed from the hose. Now, our hot water is clear, thanks to our plumber's persistence.

Verne & Ellsworth Hann installed a new Peerless boiler in my home in September. Their work was of the highest quality.

I can strongly recommend Verne & Ellsworth Hann without reservation.

As is the case with most homeowners in my shoes, I knew very little about boilers when I started to look for a replacement for the 40 year old boiler in my Shaker Heights home. It was a major investment. Choosing the right boiler was important and proper installation was critical. There were so many things that could go wrong. For these reasons, I was looking for a company and people that I could trust.

I received quotes from several Cleveland companies, including Verne & Ellsworth Hann. I met with Bill Hann at my home. I toured the Verne & Ellsworth Hann facility in Cleveland Heights. I have 40 years of experience in lead roles for a major global tool manufacturer and I was impressed with all aspects of the Verne & Ellsworth Hann organization. Most importantly, Bill earned my trust.

The removal of the old boiler, and the installation of the new boiler and new copper cold water return pipes in my basement took about three days. The Verne & Ellsworth Hann installation team was excellent. They were experienced. They arrived precisely on time every day. They explained every step of the process. They worked as a team. They treated my home with extreme care, as if it was their own.

The new boiler works great and the installation is a thing of beauty. My radiators used to be very noisy, now they are much more quiet. Sometimes I miss the clanging noises, but every time I go into my basement, I smile. I now have a reliable, efficient system and I can leave town in the winter without worry.

I don’t usually take the time to write recommendations, but in this case I am doing so because it is so well deserved.

After months of chasing other companies that never called back or gave us a price, we called Hann(should have done that from day one). The same day Bill Hann came out to see what needed to be done, he emailed an estimate, complete with asbestos removal from another company.
About a week after the asbestos was done, a 7-man crew showed up and took out our almost 100yr old boiler in just a few hours. The same day they got the new one set and ready for a quick day of buttoning up.
Super fast, all the guys were polite, funny, and really knew what they were talking about. I’ve never felt so confident about a large project thanks to them.

The tech came at the appointment time and went to the basement. He took a couple of readings but didn't open up anything on the basement blower, which I found unusual, as in the past, the tech has always cleaned out the blower area. He did change the filter that I had in there with a new one that I already had here. Being that the HVAC is fairly new, I wasn't worried about there being any problems. He didn't look at the attached humidifier or air filter system, as techs in the past have also done. He immediately went to the compressor outside and did clean it out. I wasn't with him outside but I assume that he took some readings there as well. All in all is was fine, I just was a little surprised that so little was done, particularly in the basement. Of course I will continue to use V & E Hann.

When our central air went out a few weeks ago, we needed to find someone to come in and get our system back up and running or replaced as soon as possible. We had received a quote from another reputable company but I always like to get a second opinion before dishing out a lot of money. Verne Ellsworth & Hann Inc. sent someone to our house within days of my husband calling them. They confirmed what we thought and they worked with us on getting our air conditioning and heating replaced as quickly as possible. Jake and Kyle introduced themselves when they arrived and and they did a wonderful job at keeping things neat and tidy as they got work done. They explained to me each day what they were going to be working on and what was going to be completed by the end of that day. I thought it was going to take longer than what it did tearing out that old Williamson Five in One system and then bringing in the new equipment. Turns out, this company was the one who originally installed our old system! Knowing this and the work they just finished for us gives me confidence to refer anyone to this business.

We have been using Verne & Ellsworth Hann to service our steam boiler and garage Reznor heater for years. Their reputation is stellar, and they are our neighbors. They have always responded quickly and professionally, and the cost has always been reasonable. When we flipped the switch on our 38-year-old steam boiler earlier this month, we realized that our old dear friend was ailing. We called VEH and they showed up within hours and performed an extensive diagnosis. With profusely leaking tanks and high CO2 levels, and the tech urged us to have him shut it off immediately. Bill Hann showed up bright and early the next morning. He looked at the boiler, measured, asked questions and was very thorough in accessing our needs and desires. He promised to give us a fair price and pointed out their extra-long warranty. We liked Bill from the start. He is friendly, professional, and has a great sense of humor. We knew right away that this was the company that we wanted to do this job. The price that Bill quoted was in our budget and he even threw in a few extras.
Yesterday, “The Crew” showed up first thing in the morning. These guys do not mess around. There were 4 trucks and workers everywhere. They promised that they would do their best to restore heat later in the day. Within hours the house began to thaw, and smiles were all around. I want to commend the level of knowledge and professionalism of every employee that I interacted with. Bill Hann even stopped over during the day to see how things were going and ask if I had any questions. The Crew left after about 8 hours and we enjoyed our evening in our toasty house.
This morning, the tech Bill showed up, added a drain line for free and installed new vents on all our radiators. We discussed which rooms needed more heat and he said that he would do his best to adjust things accordingly. Bill spent a great deal of time explaining the new system to me and demonstrated all the maintenance and safety features. He also explained how to use and program the new thermostat.
All in all, we are thrilled with our decision to use Verne & Ellsworth Hann for this job. We would recommend this company to anyone looking for an honest, thorough, dependable, and reasonably priced HVAC company. Thank you, Bill, for taking the sting out of this situation. We really appreciate you and your company. We intend to be customers for life!

I had Verne & Ellsworth Hann do a complete installation on a central heating and cooling system, while removing my old boiler system.

Bill was incredible nice to work with. He went out of his way to answers my questions, show me work they had done similar to mine, give me options for the work that he thought made sense, and make adjustments along the way.

Their workers were always on time, cleaned up after themselves, and were professional and friendly.

Since the installation they have answered all my questions, made adjustments to the system as needed, and provided me with all the resources to make sure the system is running properly.

I would highly recommend.

Verne & Ellsworth Hann installed a high velocity Unico central air conditioning system in my home which is almost 100 years old. I wanted a system that could be installed without gutting my old house or losing lots of storage space. I am so pleased with the work! Bill Hann was my contact person and did a great job communicating. John and Brian did a wonderful job installing the system. They are old house experts and chose pathways that minimized intrusiveness and preserved storage space and maximized aesthetics. Everything they did was neat and tidy. They always consulted me about placement of vents, thermostat, etc. If you want central air and have an old house, the Unico system from Verne & Ellsworth Hann is the way to go. Highly recommended.

We have a century home in Lakewood, which still had the original furnace (for a hot-water gravity system using radiators). Bill Hann and his team were very professional in their work, and they replaced not only the furnace (with a much more efficient boiler), but the hot-water tank too, as it was about 18 years old... beyond its warranty and (again) less efficient than current models. Now we're looking to add air conditioning, which means new ductwork, and the Hanns are advising us and also listening to our plans for an attic renovation. They are easy to get along with, knowledgeable, and versatile in finding the best solution for each home.

And when I needed to ask about a heating/cooling unit for a new place I'm moving to in N.

The entire VEH team has been a pleasure to work with. Bill Hann answered our questions completely and communicated with us closely as the installation date approached. Bill initiated a call to an asbestos removal company to have that work completed before the new boiler could be installed. That work went very smoothly. VEH Technicians Bill, Adam, and Graham installed a new boiler and thermostat to replace our 97-year-old boiler. They were on time and kept us updated about their schedule as the project was completed. They were very nice guys, kept the work area neat, and cleaned up carefully when the installation was done. Bill explained the new boiler and thermostat operation to us in detail.

Bill and his crew were professional and thorough. He was responsive and had the new boiler installed and the heat on within 36 hours of my initial call in mid December! When he arrived he was courteous and walked with me though the house to assess our heating situation and needs. He then recomended the appropriate size boiler and itemized the estimate clearly for me so I knew exactly what to the job entailed. Additionally he showed me similar work completed recently for comparison of the price. His crew will also be checking back in the next months to ensure a smooth start. Additionally he includes a one year maintenance plan in the price. I highly recommend Verne & Ellsworth Hann Inc.

Verne & Ellsworth, and Bill Hann, yes he is a real gent, and as fine a contractor as I have had the pleasure of working with, did a 1st rate job on getting the two systems supporting the three floors of our century home replaced - never anything simple there. The entire experience was a cut-above from beginning to end. Professional, experienced, attentive, that just-right blend of speed that comes with knowing what you are doing, combined with splendid attention to detail, and plain old-school high-value - you get what you pay for. The right gear, the right design (and redesign - a century home, remember), done well and right the first time. Bill, Brian, John, and their entire crew have our highest recommendation.

Where do I begin! If you need a HVAC system or repairs you need to call VERNE & ELLSWORTH HANN INC. They are AMAZING!! I live in Richmond, Va. and although they didn't put a system in my home they did put one in my parents home. We had four different companies to give quotes on replacing the AC and furnace in my parents home. Although, VEH wasn't the lowest in price they were the BEST! I have learned that cheaper isn't always better and you pay for what you get! They were the ONLY company that mentioned replacing the old duct work. All the other companies were just replacing the units and still using all the existing old duct work not to mention my mom's old duct work was 40+ years old!! Bill ( one of the owners) came out to give my mom a quote on her system, I loved that because you were not dealing with some sales rep. you had the owner himself and that spoke volume to me. He was prompt, professional, there was no pressure selling and he was HONEST! With me living in Virginia 350 miles away it sure felt good knowing my parents were in great hands! Bill kept me updated every single step of the way. He emailed or called me to let me know what would be taking place next. The crew was spotless they cleaned up so well you couldn't even tell that they had been there. I don't think my parents basement floor has ever been that clean! :) The HVAC technicians were knowledgeable and very nice. Bill told me it would take two days and they finished right on time. First impressions mean a lot and they are usually deal breakers for me. VERNE & ELLSWORTH HANN left an everlasting impression. My mom is happy and that makes me an even happier customer here in Virginia. I posted some pictures of the before and after. I think you will be able to tell which are the AFTER photos simply beautiful! Thanks so much VERNE & ELLSWORTH HANN for an excellent job well done!!

We had a great experience with an installation of an air conditioning system in our quirky hundred year old home. Tim came out to give us an estimate, took our needs seriously, and did a thorough job measuring our spaces and crafting a plan. He even called in Bill to address some of the stranger features of our house so we all felt confident in the estimate. Other reputable companies had given us quotes, but were very fuzzy on the details.

The installation team was fantastic. Greg G., Sean M., and Sean B. were incredibly professional, courteous, easy to communicate with, and tidy--in a nearly 3 week install with lots of holes being made, we never had to clean up after anyone. The three of them were in and out like clockwork 8-4, and truly as unobtrusive as people completing an extensive house project could be. They even worked to avoid disturbing our baby's naps! We couldn't recommend this team more highly.

We're looking forward to a much more comfortable Cleveland summer!

If you own a home you already know that there is never a shortage of things in need of repair or the desire for upgrades; I believe this is the given of home ownership. What should NOT be a given is finding reputable companies that provide services WORTH paying for. I seldom find the need to write a review but I was so impressed with the services and the work performed by Verne & Ellsworth Hann that I felt compelled to share my experience.

My husband and I hired Verne & Ellsworth Hann to install a heat pump and a Unico A/C system; I was impressed with their work in so many ways, I can only highlight a few. First, thanks to their ability to do a job that according to other companies was not possible in a centennial home, I am not only looking forward to next summer but can finally work comfortably in my sunroom/office conversion. Second, I was blown away by the thoroughness and quality of their work, the crew was mindful of space, room use and aesthetics. Most importantly, I was so very pleased with the professionalism of the crew, they were knowledgeable, dependable, kind, a pleasure to interact with, and always willing to go above and beyond.

Case in point, in the midst of the A/C installation, the crew discovered that our boiler was leaking and actively flooding our basement; with my husband being out of town, this amazing team took it upon themselves to clear out the area, remove the water, and arrange a formal assessment of the situation. Bill Hann immediately secured a unit and proceeded to mobilize a second crew to come to my home the very next day. This second team replaced the boiler in three days flat, the work was seamless. They managed to remove a boiler that was well over 30 years old, replace seriously corroded pipes, and give me heat by day two; it was totally impressive.

Hands down, an outstanding experience worth sharing. I will most certainly call on Verne & Ellsworth Hann for future work and for continued service needs. Absolutely fabulous work!

My boiler sprung a leak two days before the artic freeze we had this past winter. I had Hann come out and they were able to bypass the leak till they could install a new boiler. When I had the inspection done after the install, the inspector kept commenting on the craftsmanship and quality of the work done. He said he was very impressed because you just don't see that quality of work anymore and some took a lot of pride in what they did. I am very happy and was very warm the rest of the winter.

My wife and I are very pleased with the work that Bill Hann and his team did replacing our old steam boiler and return pipes. I called Verne & Ellsworth Hann at the recommendation of a neighbor, who had greatly appreciated an emergency boiler replacement that V & EH did for them at a reasonable cost during a cold snap last winter. In our case, I noticed recently that our old boiler had developed severe corrosion. I initially requested an estimate for replacement from a national service company that my wife and I had been using for years. The only option that the national service company offered was to replace our old boiler with the same model, and the national service company’s quote was unreasonably high. I called Verne & Ellsworth Hann to request an estimate for comparison. Bill Hann returned my call. I explained the situation. It was apparent from talking with Bill that he has great knowledge and interest in steam boilers and a sincere commitment to providing excellent service at a reasonable cost. He stopped by our house, checked our boiler, provided a clear and specific explanation for the corrosion and why we should avoid replacing our old boiler with the same model, explained our options regarding replacement, and made a recommendation for a replacement boiler and some additional work that made sense. It was an easy call to hire his company. Bill and his team did a great job on the actual work too. The team members were knowledgeable, courteous, and clearly interested in providing excellent service. I have great confidence in the quality of Bill’s recommendation and the work that he and his team did for us. My wife and I highly recommend Verne & Ellsworth Hann.

They were very professional. I am completely satisfied with their work and their furnace. I highly recommend this company to anyone. They put two furnaces in the house at the same time 21 years ago. We have been very pleased with their work then and now. Mr. Chris Hann put the older furnaces in back then. He is awesome.

I have nothing but glowing things to say about Vern & Ellsworth Hann! Chris the owner came out to give me a quote fir a new furnace and was personable and a straight shooter. No hard selling just facts and options. I had been without heat for over a week and it was getting colder by the day. The quote was reasonable and I also qualified for some interest free financing - amazing! After getting several quotes to compare, Chris came in lower and I decided to pull the trigger.
VEH ordered my equipment and squeezed me into their schedule right away! He even told me to swing by the shop to pick up some loaner space heaters for the weekend since they wouldn’t be installing for a few days. I was so impressed with their customer service! I signed on a Friday and they had a technician over to the house by the following Tuesday to prep the work area. The techs Jacob and Andrew arrived promptly at exactly 8am on Wednesday. They were so nice, professional and got right to work. They kept me in the loop through the entire installation. They came back the following morning promptly at 8am and finished that afternoon. Once they had cleaned up the basement and the outdoor area around my AC unit, they walked me through everything. Jacob showed me how to turn off the gas, pointed out and identified all the new duct work and how to operate the humidifier and use the new thermostat. What an incredible experience. I am a first time home owner and to have your furnace break just as it starts to snow is an incredibly scary experience. From the quote process to the financing option to the install and clean up, Vern & Ellsworth Hann delivered above and beyond! Thank you to the VEH Team! I whole heartedly recommend them for all your HVAC needs.

I used Verne & Ellsworth Hann to install a mini split system to heat and cool my finished attic. My experience with them exceeded my expectations, and everyone I worked with was fantastic. Kevin stopped by first to provide an estimate. He was very knowledgeable and provided quotes for several options to help me make the best choice. A couple weeks later, Barry and Jayson installed the new system. They worked super efficiently, their work was clean, and they were very respectful of my home. I even overheard high praise from the city inspector for their work. My new system is working great, and I’m very happy with my decision to go with Verne and Ellsworth Hann. I highly recommend and I will definitely use them again in the future.

VEH installed central air conditioning (mini-split system) into our vintage Shaker Heights home that has a boiler/radiators. Bill Hann and his staff were amazing and extremely creative in figuring out how to install the AC system and still maintain the integrity of our home. The installers were always punctual, professional and friendly. They took great care to protect the walls and floors inside as well as the landscaping outside. We have had over 20 years of relying on VEH for our new boiler and water heater installation as well as ongoing annual maintenance. This is an outstanding company and deserves at least 10 gold stars for its integrity and excellent service.

We called many people beforehand and this company was very responsive and was out in a matter of a few hours, diagnosed the issue and repaired same day in a very timely manner.

By now Bill and his crew had two major works in my house.

First, old boiler had to be replaced. Bill and his crew used the occasion to fix also a bunch of radiators and pipe connections that were not working properly (and sometimes not working at all).

Bill did an amazing job of not only replacing the boiler but in recognizing that the boiler is just one piece of a big system. It happened that our old house had many pipes and valves that were not working properly, with the result that the whole heating system was very inefficient.

Of course we did not know that--nor did the other companies that gave us quotes for the job. With basically the same cost of the other quotes, Bill and his crew were able to replace the radiator and fix these other problems. Most notably, the strong (and very annoying) clunk noises that would come whenever the heating system started (which we assumed were inevitable since we bought the house 10 years ago) are now gone!

The company was very professional in terms of explaining us the work to be done. They were always on time and there was no hiccups at all during the installation and later fine tunes. We are thoroughly impressed with their work.

The second work was just finished, and that was the installation of central AC.

Immediately after the job was finished, I wrote a message to Bill to commend his crew for their professionalism. I was thoroughly impressed (but not surprised!) with the work. The job was well done; communication was great (always seeking input from us and giving us the right feedback); not much disruption during the work; all very clean; and last but not least an amazing patience with a new puppy trying to bite everybody and eat everything!

I can say that this company is the most professional contractor we have ever dealt with in Northeast Ohio!

Having to move from the Chicago area into an old Shaker Heights home without AC, we set out to find a HVAC contractor to help us. We were fortunate to have found Ellsworth and Hann. After some back and forth about how to proceed, I learned that Bill Hann knows these systems well enough to determine the most efficient and effective way to proceed, and that he’ll have my interests and concerns in mind. Through his guidance we decided to convert the house to a forced air system, and went through a weeks long installation process without a hitch. The new system works great. Being a contractor myself, I have to say that I’ve been impressed with this company from start to finish. I wouldn’t consider looking elsewhere.

Great experience. Friends recommended VEH, so when we needed to replace our furnace and air conditioning unit this year I gave them a call. After 30 minutes with Chris I knew I didn't need to call anyone else. His inspection and analysis was thorough, the range of options he offered was excellent and scheduling the work was easy. What impressed me most, however, was the expertise and professionalism of the gentlemen who did the installation. The quality of their work was outstanding and now I know why VEH is so highly rated.

V&E Hann had the experience, and responded immediately with an assessment & replacement quote, and even provided a fantastic temporary heat solution to get us through a Holiday weekend. They were fair, honest, respectful, and efficient. We appreciated the great working relationship, and look forward to utilizing their services in the future.

On the days of installation, Bill R., Adam, and Graham arrived promptly and were wonderful. Updates were communicated regularly, and all of them took their time going over my new setup, going over troubleshooting concerns, and even labeling all of the valves. I hope to enjoy this system for many many years to come. Highly recommend V&E.

My furnace completely died on a late Saturday afternoon. I called and a service tech was at my home within the hour. He completed a thorough inspection of my 22 year old furnace, and suggested replacing it. On Monday Morning the owner of the Company came to my home and provided a quote and explained the benefits of a high efficiency unit.

Promptly at 8:00 AM on Tuesday a crew of three service techs. They were polite hard working and explained what modifications needed to be completed due to my older home. The walked me through my new thermostat and explained how to use it to save energy in my home. By 3:00 on Tuesday my heat was up and running and I could feel the difference immediately.

Very poor experience. I recently purchased and older home and had to get my A/C unit serviced. I called Verne & Ellsworth because I wanted to support local business.

They sent their service technician out who spent maybe 15 minutes at my house before proceeding to tell me a needed a new unit. I asked him what the issue was. My thermostat wire was not wired to my A/C unit. I asked him if he could wire it together and see if the A/C unit worked. He said he couldn't do it because he'd need the wiring schematic and that Verne and Ellsworth as a company doesn't do this.

So, I called an electrician. The electrician was able to wire the thermostat wire to the A/C. I asked him where he found the wiring schematic, and he informed me that it was on the inside of the furnace (go figure). I then spoke with one of the sales reps at Verne & Ellsworth that wanted to sell me a new unit, told him about my experience (including the wiring schematic portion) and he was completely nonchalant about my experience.

Since my first experience with Verne & Ellsworth left a lot to be desired, I called P.K. Wadsworth. What a different experience. Their technician came out and actually spent time diagnosing the problem (1-2 hours), came back two days later and fixed my unit. I now have A/C that functions great from a unit that, according to Verne and Ellsworth, needs replaced.

I'm just disappointed that they didn't even take the time to actually diagnose the problem and fix it whatsoever. They just saw it was an older unit and figured I was a sale. I'm out $100 for a diagnosis that diagnosed absolutely nothing. If you have an older A/C unit that you're trying to have repaired, do yourself a favor and skip over this company.

I had Verne & Ellsworth Hann come out to evaluate a mini split system at my home. They told me that they aren't able to work on my unit and would need to replace the whole system. That's fine, it's their policy since the prior owner of my home had self-installed the unit. The pricing was very high for a service visit at $210 (visit fee plus an hour of labor when they were only on-site for 15 minutes...). It is what it is.

Then, I called to schedule a repair for a bathroom sink and a kitchen sink fixture install. The day before my scheduled appointment, they texted to tell me they had an issue and had to cancel the appointment. Frustrating, but it happens. Then, the day of the rescheduled appointment, they texted again to cancel because of multiple plumbing emergencies. I'm glad that I don't have an emergency and understand that things happen. But, there was no real apology offered, no offer of a discount or service recovery, just another day where I had rearranged my family's schedule to be home for no reason. They offered to re-reschedule in two weeks, which would be well over a month after I'd first called.

I decided to schedule with a different provider because I felt it was unreasonable to cancel on me with less than 24 hours' notice twice in a row. Disappointing, and could have been avoided if they'd acknowledged and apologized for wasting my time.

I used my 40+ years of experience as a real estate developer to secure 3 bids to replace the boiler in my own house. The prices of all 3 bids were quite close to one another. I could have chosen any of them if cost was my only criterion. It wasn't. I wanted to know more about the details of what was being proposed by each bidder, projected timelines, reputation, etc. I chose Verne & Ellsworth Hann because they scored very high on each criterion. Turns out, my wife and I couldn't be happier with them. There were no hidden add-ons to the price, they started and finished the job well within the proposed time horizon. They left the work area as clean as it could be. They have been very prompt and efficient with the few follow-on items that needed attention. In short, they couldn't have done a better job and both the principals and the staff could not be more competent and pleasant to work with. I highly recommend Verne & Ellsworth Hann to anyone needing a new boiler or any other HVAC system installation.

UPDATE:
2 years so far with the new furnace and AC. Has required FAR more service expense than expected for brand new, relatively high-end units. We had service with Hann for our prior HVAC for many years and had very reasonable service costs - and the annual service contracts were reasonably priced and covered more. Now - not so much. Not awful, but not exceptional either.

ORIGINAL: (was a 5 star).
We replaced our furnace and AC /air conditioner in Sept 2021, in our home in Cleveland Heights. We'd gotten 4 bids, and Verne & Ellsworth Hann came in as overall best value - and the other 3 companies were strong and had solid bids. We chose VEH because of reputation, reviews and the superior communication and followup, and patient, professional process - very educational and helpful.

The installation was complete in about 2.5 days, service personnel exceeded expectations - polite, communicative, highly competent, and very tidy - great cleanup, each day and at the end of install.

Could not recommend them more highly!

I am very happy with my service from VEH. We had two AC units installed at a duplex property that previously did not have central air. Kevin came to make the estimate and walk me through what the work would entail. I am a new homeowner so there is a lot to learn and Kevin was happy to thoroughly explain how the installed system would work to me which made me comfortable.

I got 5 estimates from large competitors and even local contractors, but VEH came with the best numbers. They offered us an out of season install discount and they had great financing options!

I do wish there was more information and communications after we accepted their quote, though. There was clear communication on setting up the financing account, but I had to call twice to find out what the next steps were and when I would expect to get the job scheduled. Once they were available to put me on the schedule, they were able to start the next week. I’d say that it was very quick to schedule once they did, but there was a delay in reaching out to me to get it done in the first place.

When it came time for VEH to install, it was a two day job. They were very prompt (knocking at my door the minute they said they would arrive) and did not disturb the house. This was important because we both work from home and are on calls throughout the day. When the work was complete, I got another walkthrough of the install, how the equipment works, and how to maintain it annually.

Thank you, VEH!

I have had several projects from Verne & Ellsworth Hann in the past 7 years, including boiler replacements, heating system installation, and air conditioning system set up.

Each of these times, Bill Hann has takes a ton of his time to talk to my wife and I to learn about the issues we're having, explain the root causes of those issues, and suggest fixes that we know will prevent the issues from coming back -- not just paper over the issue temporarily.

Lastly, he always delivers on time -- onsite when he says he will be, finishing when he says he will -- and always makes sure every aspect of the job is completed, from material removal and set up, to equipment install, to clean up after the project.

A++ and highly recommended

VEH recently installed a new HVAC system in my home. From start to finish they were the consummate professionals! It started with Tim Posey who provided the quote for the work to be performed. He was thorough in his details and was willing to work with us to realize the best possible price for the work. He even returned to our home following the installation to answer a few questions we had regarding the unit.

The installers, Andrew and Graham were diligent in performing the work and explained what they were doing every step of the way. They completed the work on time and left the basement area very clean! They never slacked off while completing the work.

The customer service from Chelsea to Lauri in the accounting department was very responsive to my questions and required documentation for the Dominion energy rebate.

I can't say enough about VEH! I recommend them without reservation.

The crew that installed our boiler did a great job. It looks like a work of art! The crew was incredibly punctual and also polite and very respectful. They left our basement very clean and took the time to answer all of our questions and concerns. We highly recommend Verne and Ellsworth Hann.....they know boilers inside and out! J. Christopher

We have a 100 year old house. Our 50+ year old boiler broke a week before Thanksgiving. We were expecting a crowd for the holiday and Verne and Ellsworth Hann Heating Company bent over backwards to get our heat back on as quickly as possible. Bill Hann also spent considerable time explaining our steam heating system to me. All of the workmen who came out were very professional and did excellent work. We would highly recommend them!

I had hired a different company to fix a noise that my heating system (Boiler) was making. They came out and inaccurately diagnosed my problem. They also inaccurately priced my problem. Their estimate was quite a bit of money. They told me they needed to wait for the parts to come in and they would be back. After they left, my boiler no longer worked. Remember, the whole reason I had them come out was to fix a noise. Somehow they did something that made the heat stop working.
Joe and Jeff (from Verne and Ellsworth) came to my house as a second opinion to re-diagnose the problem on my now malfunctioning boiler. They not only fixed the boiler, but after they got it running the original noise was also gone. The amount of money that they charged me was negligible compared to what the other company quoted me. I am very pleased with these 2 very professional people and the company they work for. I know who to call next time. Thank you Joe and Jeff from Verne and Ellsworth!!!

Verne & Ellsworth Hann did a fantastic job on an AC project that was large and complicated. Everything was done on time and the crew was so professional. During a 3 week plus project the crew kept everything in the house clean and orderly. I could not be happier with the result.

Verne & Ellsworth Hann are amazing. Bill was great to work with, he checked out the new home we were buying and walked us through all of the issues with the current heating service and gave us a great estimate. Unforunately we did not end up purchasing the home but I would recommend them for anyone needing heating or cooling services in their house. They are extremely knowledgable and very helpful! Look forward to working with them when I buy my new home!

We just completed a new AC installation in our 1930’s Tudor. After about 5 or 6 consultations with various HVAC companies in the area I met Bill Hann. Unlike some of the other consults I received, he was clearly an expert and not just a salesperson coming over to take measurements. I appreciated the time he took to go over the various aspects of our project and the plan was well thought out. He got back to me quickly with an estimate (on par with the other estimates I received). The work was meticulous, the house always clean at the end of the day, and most importantly the project was finished on the day he said it would be. I was worried about a new install in an old Shaker house, but they delivered beyond my expectations. You can barely tell that there was any work done (besides the perfectly working AC!). His crew were always friendly and professional and I couldn’t imagine a better experience! Thank you!

Verne & Ellsworth was a great company to work with! They were professional, honest, worked with our schedule, and gave us a very fair price! They explained what needed to be done and got it done with as little disruption as possible. Our new furnace works beautifully and our new air condition will be great this summer. We would use them again and recommend them to family and friends!

You did speak with me- this is my home as well and he only was told of the service call price to check it. While he was at work I was the one handling it the day they came back and charged another $70 for a 2 min piece to be screwed in which I even Told the gentleman I could do it as I often pulled out the flame sensor to clean it so the furnace wouldn’t shut off after it was lit.
Are you not the person that called me back after your secretary told you I called? The man I spoke with said he was the owner when I asked? The man who yelled at me as a customer ?
Then felt the need to call my boyfriend and leave a message that I yelled at you.
You already yelled at me that you would never be doing business at our house again so not sure why you needed to call him and leave a message putting me down to him.
Most businesses I’ve dealt with talk things out with the customer they don’t call you just to tell you off.
We agreed we won’t be calling you again and you that you won’t provide us service again.
I have every right to leave my review. That’s why reviews are - the customers experience.
My experience was not good. Period.
