An excellent experience with Jason and Dillon! They arrived at the church exactly when they were scheduled and were professional and cordial. Their communication skills were outstanding as was their expertise with efficiency in removing our existing furnace and replacing it along with a thermostat. They took the time to explain the job and possible things to be aware of with a new system as well as what should/should not cause alarm. We were pleased with their attention to detail and safety protocols as well. They left their work space exactly as they found it and checked in to let us know they were finished and leaving. Between the two installers there are several years of experience and competency so we look forward to working with them again if necessary. -

Zach, Tyler and Issac were absolutely wonderful to work with from start to finish. A great group of men who were knowledgeable, friendly and very detailed in their work. Even being told to not worry about the mess on the floors (as it was wet outside) as I would clean after they left, they absolutely insisted on making sure my home was cleaned up. Great team of guys highly recommend Halco for all your home needs! Will be seeing them all again in the near future. -

Jenny Trevor and Zu did an excellent job installing our geothermal heat pump. They were very thorough, friendly, knowledgeable and helpful! Jenny showed us all the setup modes and safety features and they cleaned up the work area very nicely. The piping was neatly installed and followed the ceiling angles perfectly. Good job!! -

I’m so impressed! Halco phone service reps were quick to answer my call, thorough in finding out what was wrong, professional in letting me know the costs before the technician came, and thoughtful in calling me back with the first available appointment the same day! Steve, my technician, provided excellent, expert, professional service on a nonworking furnace that has been serviced a total of 4 times unsuccessfully in the last 2 months by another company in town. He was very experienced and explained clearly what might be the problems, and indeed, he was right! I’m very thankful that Steve came to the rescue, a nice guy, too, and brought heat back to my house. I will be switching to Halco for all my future heating and energy maintenance, installation and service! -

Halco has done incredible and consistent work for us for many years! Recently, we had a couple of plumbing issues that need to be rectified and David and Harrison came and made it right, doing great work! Always professional. Appreciate this company very much. -

Mark came out for a scheduled sink swap out and as luck would have it we had a shower faucet get stuck the night before (timing is everything!). With visions of a major repair, he was able to change out the gasket and get us up and running. He was courteous, calming and professional. The new sink is great too! -

Having a 2nd floor bathroom redone. Needed to have blend valve and new trap installed. Upon seeing the galvanized pipes Mike asked how was the water pressure. After discussion we decided to replaced lines from basement. He was able to get it done in a few hours and stayed a little late to finish. I would highly recommend this company. -

Sean conducted a thorough assessment of my energy usage, providing clear and actionable suggestions to improve efficiency and reduce costs. Kaleb and his team did an excellent job installing my furnace, ensuring all related components were set up properly. I am extremely satisfied with Halco’s service and highly recommend Sean and Kaleb for their professionalism and expertise. -

Angie Riley was fabulous! Courteous and professional in every way. She explained everything she was doing offering advice along the way. While she was here our ice water maker on our refrigerator malfunctioned and water rapidly leaked everywhere. She helped troubleshoot the problem and resolved the issue. Angie let us use her wet/dry vacuum and even helped with the clean up. She would not accept any additional cash for this unrelated help. Angie went above and beyond to help us in this emergency and for this we are extremely grateful. She’s a great asset to your company. As always, the service from Halco was superb! -

We just had geothermal installed this summer and I could 👏 not 👏 be happier with their work. From the start when we were collecting quotes (we had four), Halco was professional, while being caring individuals at the same time. We considered air transfer heat pumps as well as geothermal, and ultimately chose Halco even though it was not the “lowest cost bidder”. They had the most well rounded service offering, including maintenance after installation.In the end, we had *so many* occasions to validate our choice! The Halco team stood by their word, even if it meant they were at a disadvantage. The sub contractors they partner with are just as lovely as they are. Each member of their team, including their subcontractors, were professional, highly skilled, thoughtful, efficient, and creative when needed! They ran into issues throughout the project (our home threw a few curve balls!), but each time, the team overcame each issue, while always being mindful that this is our >home -

We are incredibly impressed with the service provided by Mike from Halco. He was professional, highly knowledgeable, and took the time to patiently explain our HVAC system, helping us understand how it works and how to get the most out of it. Mike made some necessary changes and improvements, and we are extremely grateful for his expertise. The level of customer service and attention to detail was outstanding. We highly recommend Mike and the team at Halco for their excellent service!. -Claudia and Maria -

Our house suffered serious water damage throughout due to a leak in the heat pipe on the second floor caused by the cold winter weather. In a situation where the exact location of the leak was uncertain, Jacob Kirkendall, a heating technician from Halco, quickly pinpointed the source of the leak and made the repairs promptly. During the process of restoring the water, he was extremely careful to check for any additional leaks at every step, demonstrating great attention to detail and well-honed skills. I believe his skills are excellent, and I am extremely satisfied with his service and truly appreciate his efforts. -

From our consultation to the installation, the Halco team was awesome to work with. We are very happy with our new furnace, air conditioner, and thermostat. The installation took about 2.5 days. The crew was very courteous on our property and inside the home. They also cleaned the vents included in the service. Thank you! -

Halco was great. Their employees were polite, considerate and answered questions thoroughly. They did cellulose and spray foam insulation in attic and basement levels, installed a basement door and window, as well as some other upgrades and repairs. My house was neat and tidy when they were done and I am happy to be warmer and draft free. -

Dan and Cody arrived early, figured out what the cause of my water problem was almost immediately, fixed it with minimal use of extra parts, then explained to me how to maintain the taps to keep future buildup from causing a problem in the future.

Like any large construction/renovation project there were unexpected challenges that came up, esp. given its an old house with multiple tenants. I was impressed by the leadership at Halco as they were very responsive to my concerns and needs. In particular they took health matters seriously and had tech savvy methods to air out and remove unavoidable VOCs that were part of doing the foam and paint. They clearly wanted the work done right and for me to be happy and comfortable with the end result. I would recommend them. -

We recently had a home energy audit done, and we couldnt be more impressed with the experience. The auditor or Energy Advisor, Mr. Sean Hillson was incredibly thorough in his work, inspecting every corner of our home to ensure no detail was overlooked. He took the time to explain each step of the process, making sure we understood what he was checking and why it was important. His communication was excellent, keeping us informed about areas of improvement and offering practical solutions. We highly recommend his services and the Halco Energy Company for anyone looking to improve the energy efficiency of their home. -

Mark efficiently identified and resolved our plumbing issue. The work required accessing a vent pipe inside a wall. Mark made as small of a hole in the wall as he could to complete the needed repair. He then securely remounted the removed drywall, which will only require minimal patching and painting on our part. He carefully cleaned up during and after he finished his work. Ive never experienced a plumber leaving the worksite as clean as he did. Thank you Mark! -

Ryan arrived just a bit over an hour after Halco contacted me and I was very impressed with his work and knowledge. He fixed my faucet and did more totighten the attachment to the sink.

Halco overall did an amazing job for me. New outdoor electric panel, heat pump install with blower and one mini-split, duct repair / replacement, duct cleaning and finally, spray foam insulation. In particular, the crew that did the duct repair and sprayfoam insulation (shoutout to Kevin and Noah!) were truly a pleasure to have around and answered all my questions. I feel informed and confident in my new system. The company took the time to address some concerns I had at the start of the project and went above and beyond in correcting any mistakes. Thanks Halco! Would definitely use them again! -

Todd Thompson was awesome! Explained everything that would be done and what I would be entitled to. And returned after work was done to make sure everything was as he said it would be. Kevin Lansing and the other two guys who did the work at my home were very nice. They were very efficient and did everything they said they would. Very happy with the whole experience and would definitely recommend Halco to others! Great company! Thank you so much! -

Two jobs scheduled at the same time.1) geothermal system had a leaky pressure relief valve. Replaced under our service contract.2) water softener had stopped working and our whole house water filter would not come apart to replace the filter. No service contract for the plumbing, but they serviced both (softener needed significant cleaning) in under 2 hours. Not cheap, but their service is excellent, timely, and they have excellent communication. -

Mike was great! Called when he was 20 minutes away and arrived ready to fix our problem.I so appreciated that your company was able to come the same day I reached out but I felt your pricing maybe a little steep for us. He was here less than 45 minutes and $345.00 for his visit seemed a bit pricey. -

Randall showed up today to do duct cleaning for my home. He was very professional and efficient. It’s hard to find strangers coming into your home and feel comfortable however the whole time here felt like someone I knew forever. Always was able to answer questions and smiled the whole time. Great service to have done and already can tell the difference. -

My entire experience with Halco from start to finish was outstanding! My first contact was with Sean, Halcos pleasant and knowledgeable home energy advisor who came to my house to evaluate and size what equipment I would need and then help me decide the best location and way to install the mini split. He promptly prepared a very itemized cost proposal and answered any of my questions about items I didnt fully understand. When installation day came, two very capable conscientious young men showed up - Kaleb (foreman/technician) and Connor his assistant. Both men clearly knew what they were doing and spent the full day running electrical lines, installing the split inside the house and the compressor hung outside. They worked quickly and efficiently as a team and both men seemed happy working for Halco - which is always a good sign:). In sum, I would highly recommend Halco for any HVAC needs.. -

Ive worked with Halco for years (theyve done solar, insulation and split units for our home). Sean Hillson visited when we requested an estimate for a whole house generator.

He gave clear information about what would be required. Greatly appreciate his time and effort. -

Upon arrival, David and Harrison introduced themselves before3 entering our home.Our Halco visit today was to discuss an alternative water system to our current 20 year old system and a leak behind our washer...David reviewed the notes made by Halco during previous visits (heating system; not water) which gave a full-complete understanding of our home pipe/heat/water system. David provided us with new options to our existing filter and softener system and will be providing us with an estimate within a few days.David and Harrison were very good listeners(to us the owners) and provided tons of useful insight to an existing leaking pipe behind our washer machine. They fixed what they could-which stopped the initial leak and identified two hoses that needed be replaced. They will be returning to replace the pipes...We look forward to reviewing the estimate and working with them on our current and future home needs. -

We contracted Halco to install our solar system. They were great and worked with us every stage to make sure we were getting what we wanted and how we wanted it.

The Halco crew did an outstanding job of removing a failed A/C unit / air handler and installing new ones. I have pretty high standards and they did a really great job in ensuring it was not only installed properly, but that it looked as aesthetically pleasing as HVAC equipment can. They were great about cleaning up after themselves as well. Highly recommend.Edit: Unfortunately 10 days later, we noticed water spots on our bathroom ceiling - directly below the new air handler. It seems the drain lines were not properly installed which has resulted in a fair amount of water leaking into the attic/ceiling. This is a dynamic situation and they are in the process of resolving it, but I cant leave this as a 5-star review given the current circumstances. I am hopeful that all will be made right as has been indicated, and I will provide a final update once the situation is resolved.Final Edit: Halco sent a team of folks to fix the issues with the initial install, repair the water damaged drywall, and ensure appropriate failsafes are in place to drain/trap/alert if ever there is a future issue. Obviously I cant give 5-stars given the issues, but I am willing to bump it back to 4 given the response. -

September 2024: After our great experiences in the past we went back to Halco for installation of our new electric heating and cooling system. Rex and Jake were fantastic throughout the process. They were punctual, communicative, and incredibly courteous. Our two friendly but vocal dogs were eager to be involved in the project despite our best efforts but both Rex and Jake were very polite in dealing with the extra eyes on them through much of the day. My wife and I both work from home and both gentlemen really made an effort to be the least intrusive they could be, which while unnecessary, was much appreciated. Both guys were great at keeping us posted on what they had done and what was next, which I think everyone would appreciate.We also worked with Justin B. for ironing out all of the details pre-project, and he was great to work with as always (weve worked with him before). We wanted a few different options quoted out and Justin was happy to do so and provide us all of the detail we needed, and kept us up-to-speed with each step of the process right up to scheduling.October 2023: David and Harrison installed our water softener and were very courteous and professional throughout the process. They were done in a few hours, provided regular updates throughout, and left the area just as clean (probably cleaner) than they found it. I would recommend their services! -

Kaleb and Connor installed all of the changeover from propane to heat pump. They worked for 4 days in miserably cold, snowy conditions, always cheerful, upbeat, professional and thorough. They respectfully answered my endless questions with patience, clear knowledge, and explanation of the process. They remained professional and positive even with glitches. The conversion work was successfully completed and Im pleased with the results. Im one step closer to becong fossil fuel free. I highly recommend Halco and their staff. Its a great company and the longevity of their staff that Ive seem throughout this process says a lot. Professionals dont stay with a company theyre not happy working for.Thanks to Kaleb, Trevor and to all the Halco team! -

We had Halco come to fix a clogged drain. Turned out we needed some new pipes. Estimate was to take down some wall and install new P trap and pipes. We thought it was going to leave us with a gaping hole in the wall. Turns out Hunter was able to get it all done and reuse the piece of wall taken out, so he left it pretty much as he found it, and in half the time quoted! Saved us a couple hundred on the job! Thank you Hunter and Halco for continued great service. -

I asked Matt to come and inspect my home to make sure that the foam application they did a way ago was not the reason for a serious water problem we are having. My assumption was that perhaps loss of ventilation had created a condensation issue. Matt and his coworker inspect the attic and related locations thoroughly and conducted the detective work necessary to make identify the source of the problem. They did not try to blame the issue to the work made by other contractors. Even though we did not solve the issue they suggested what to do to find more information and are willing to work with me to complete the diagnostic. As long as they prove in the near future that is true, they deserve a good review. -

Review 122 (2025-01-02 - Rating: 5)
HALCO responded quickly to my report of air in my natural gas hot water baseboard system. My boiler was an older unit (2006?). It was tested for efficiency and found to be working well. The valve that adds water to the system was stuck (and unstuck), but everything else appeared to be working within acceptable limits. The repairman took the time to explain how everything worked. Options for replacement of various parts were evaluated as all are getting on in years. It was decided to schedule a follow-up maintenance/cleaning for the unit sometime this spring at which time some replacement parts might be installed if further problems are noticed.I am within the Village of Lansing area where there is a special program for homeowner financial assistance via NYSEG & Earth Sensitive Solutions (earthsensitive.com) for air-to-air or geothermal heat exchanger installation and HALCO is one of the participating installers. There is a possibility of HALCO replacing the natural gas setup with equipment that does not use natural gas. This will also be investigated via HALCO if there is sufficient financial incentive.UPDATE June 2023: Just had my air conditioner, gas boiler & generator serviced. The job was done efficiently in spite of a steady rain. I was especially pleased with the detail of the report on what was done on each unit. Bravo again, HALCO!Thanks, HALCO! Job well done!UPDATE December 2023: I decided to take advantage of the incentives from NYSEG, New York State and the Federal government to switch from natural gas to air-to-air heat pumps. HALCOs Matt D. did a great job helping me lay out the new setup. HALCO administrative staff, Audrey, Autumn & crew, took care of all the applications, staff scheduling and paperwork needed, from grants to loan applications. All I had to do was sign!Zachary C., the job supervisor and his assistant Kyle worked quickly and efficiently to complete the work two days earlier than expected(!) Matt S., Installation Division Manager, was there at the start and toured with the electrical inspector & Matt D. at the finish.Zach C. also coordinated the work with Del, HALCOs excellent electrician and his capable assistant David to assist with new outlets for an electric stove, EV level 2 charger and electric dryer. I was impressed (as was the electrical inspector) with the neatness of the electrical installation and the way Del assisted Zach with the job.The project easily passed inspection and the equipment works flawlessly. It was also a learning experience for me, as I now understand much better how the electrical and remaining natural gas fixtures work in my home. I was even able to clean & thereby fix the pilot assembly of my natural gas heating stove myself given the observations made by Zach C. and Zach S. on a previous visit!CEO Hal S. has good reason to be very proud of his capable, conscientious staff and most particularly the way they work so well together as a team! https://www.halcoenergy.com/about-us/staff.htmlUPDATE 9 Dec 2024Just had HALCO by to disconnect & cap gas line to our kitchen stove as we are switching to induction/convection range. Mark carefully explained all the possible options for capping the line and we agreed it was best to cap it at the point it joined the main gas line. Everything done very professionally!UPDATE 1 Jan 2025:David responded to a collapsed trap under my kitchen sink a day ahead of time! His repair of several years of work by handymen was as elegant as theirs was sloppy. He took pride in his work and the results have been excellent. -

I was experiencing some clogged pipes which was causing water to back up in my basement. Halcos plumber Mike Crumb came out and worked extremely diligently to effectively resolve that situation. I highly recommend this company to anyone who in the finger lake area. They are fast, efficient, and most importantly fairly priced especially if you request membership. -

I had another yearly preventative maintenance on my geothermal unit. Pete is always professional, friendly, and efficient. He always answers my questions and will offer helpful suggestions. Pete is definitely one of the many reasons why Halco is such a great company! -

Very nice staff, quick response and availability. The plumbers were helpful and very patient when our small repair turned into a much a bigger issue. Definitely recommend. (I appreciate them wearing boot covers in the house too!) -

Halco sent Bob to diagnose a late ignition problem on the boiler of the non-profit that I managed and he very quickly and professionally figured out the issue(s). The follow up with the office was quick and the service call to solve the problem was thorough and quick. Bob explained the work being done, showed me the components that were causing the issue and explained why they were the cause.We talked about a yearly service contract for our HVAC systems and I am recommending to the Board that we use Halco going forward.Five stars. Well done. -

I was very pleased to find out that as service contract members we get 2 free hours of non emergency service per year. After we made an appointment with Halco, a serviceperson arrived on time as usual to update the functioning parts of our toilets. Mark did a great job and was very pleasant. We are very happy with our service. -

Kevin and Noah worked to insulate my basement. I could not be happier with the work they did. The basement looks better than it did before they started. They were efficient and they did a nice job of cleaning up afterwards. I highly recommend Kevin and Noah!!! -

With a new (old) house come many unexpected things and lots of cleaning. Everyone we have dealt with at Halco has been very friendly, professional, knowlegeable and there to answer all our questions in a way we understand. They did a great job cleaning all our crazy vents and we are looking forward to a new water heater from them. (EDIT - New water heater is in and it is amazing! Charlie did a great job installing!) -

Another stellar experience with the folks from Halco! From the scheduling team to the knowledgeable and friendly technicians who diagnosed the problem (and took the time to show me exactly the issue with the leaky drain) and repaired it, it was a positive experience all the way around. I trust their expertise and appreciate their professionalism. Grateful to know they are a phone call away should other plumbing or HVAC issues arise! -

Sarah is so professional and courteous! Her knowledge of HVAC and the ability to answer every question thrown her way is amazing. I will 100% refer others to her/Halco. The entire experience from start to finish was made possible because of HER! Thank you Halco for all your hard working employees! -

Halco recently installed five heat pump/mini split units in our home. Before we committed to going ahead, Sean Hillson met with us numerous times and worked with us to address all our concerns — and was able to answer our questions even while the units were being installed. His meticulous attention to detail was unsurpassed. The installation crew led by Rex were totally professional — they arrived on time, worked to make sure everything was put up as specified, and cleaned up at the end of the day. -

My husband and I are in the process of taking over care for his father’s home and property, and we are very much in the “who do we call to fix this” stage of things. I am SO glad that we got Andrew for our first plumbing service call. While we are planning relatively extensive kitchen and bathroom remodels for this upcoming year, we called Halco this week for a burst hose pipe on the outside of the house. The pipe runs from the root cellar, through the foundation wall, and to the outside of the house. We were worried the job would be complicated, because everything with this old house winds up being complicated—and because we genuinely had no idea when the last time anything was replaced or serviced. Andrew was here for a little under two hours and provided not only a fix, but also enormous peace of mind. I am discovering the unparalleled comfort that comes with a professional telling you “the rest of the line looks great.” He is worth every penny spent (and saved). We will definitely be calling Halco, and hoping for Andrew, when we start our planned projects later this year. And for anything that comes up in the meantime. If you see this: Thanks, Andrew!Best, Alanna and Tony -

For the last month or so Ive been working with Halco and Sarah Cox in particular to determine what kind of work we want and need for a major HVAC upgrade (from fossil fuels to efficient electricity). I am not only pleased but grateful for this process. In terms of returning calls, following up, friendly people, excellent and insightful advice, work with you where you are at, etc, all around it has been a great experience getting a quote for work. In terms of educating me, and having a real give and take with us working within a budget and prioritizing different aspects of the system, I feel confident we are investing in the best fitted components of the best system available for our needs and budget, and that peace of mind makes me feel great about the work we are going to be doing. Another review to come :)Okay, so here it is, about a month later. The work is 90% done and I couldnt be happier. I had an oil furnace and propane water heater replaced with heat pumps, and the electric panel was upgraded to accommodate this work, our HVAC ducts got cleaned, etc. The thing I appreciate most is the real effort each member of the team made not just to do the job, but to do the job to the highest standard, as if these were their own houses systems, and they werent going to do work that didnt make sense, or was a short-cut or in any way incomplete. For instance, although we originally planned to clean our existing HVAC ducts and use them as is, it turned out they were insufficient for the pressure needed to have the system work optimally, not to mention looking like an unruly octopus in the basement. In the end they decided to redo the ductwork almost entirely, at their expense, because that was the right design for the system. There were little details, like each appliance having an outlet attached (always useful to have an extra outlet around) and a little bin to attached to the heat pumps hold the manuals (which you never know where to keep or find). On time, considerate, hard-working, thoughtful, and truly committed to quality work. I feel completely confident the job was done as well as is reasonably possible to expect. Thanks guys (and gals)! You have a customer for life :)...Fast forward nearly two year later. I ended up getting the 10 year parts and labor service and it just paid off for us already. A power surge knocked out the blower and computer board on our heat pump, and after waiting a couple days for parts to come in (they offered me space heaters to help out for the days without heat.), it is installed and running with no additional cost to me. The customer service and technician Acacia were all great...again. -

The team at Halco is top notch. We had a 5 head geothermal Heating/AC unit installed at our personal home. They made it as non invasive and clean as possible all the while keeping us well informed throughout the entire process. From the girls in the office to the teams they send on site. Halco did a phenomenal job. If you are lucky enough to get Jenni and Jake as your team...YOU WIN. Theyre the best. I would highly recommend Halco to anyone and everyone. -

Anthony came earlier than I could have hoped for, took his time and informed me as he worked, what he was doing. He notified me that a part might need replacing, but later assured me that it was working fine. I am very pleased with the job he did and he finished in time for me to be able to do the other things I planned today. -

They put insulation throughout my house. In addition, they sealed off doorways where drafts were getting in. They also had light bulbs changed to low energy halogens. There was one thing that I had not noticed for a week or so after they finished. Although I seemed to have some communication mishaps with them, they came and fixed the problem.They are a very reliable company. I could not recommend them more!!! I thank them for such amazing service.
