Jake did a check up on my furnace and was extremely helpful. I had gotten an opinion from another company telling me I needed a new furnace. Jake reviewed it, told me it was operating just fine and had plenty of time left. He showed me all the tests, all the pieces and went note by note as to why the furnace is in good operation. It’s hard to find that kind of ethic and I appreciate the honesty and thorough explanation. Will definitely be calling again next time I need help. -

We just had a water softener and water filtration system installed by Jake and Bill - they did a fantastic job. Very personable and quick to respond. I also appreciated the kind lady who responded to my contact form and scheduled the initial appointment. You all are doing good work! -

I recently had a new HVAC system installed by Legacy Heating & Plumbing, and I couldn’t be more satisfied! From the initial conversation with Mindy their team was caring, professional, knowledgeable, and efficient. The installation process went smoothly, and they took the time to explain everything in detail, ensuring I was comfortable with the new system.The quality of their work and attention to detail truly stood out. My home is now perfectly heated and cooled, and I couldn’t be more thankful for their exceptional service. If you’re looking for reliable, top-notch HVAC installation, I highly recommend Legacy Heating & Plumbing! Thank you Mindy, Jake, Bill and team! -

Our experience with Legacy Heating and Cooling was fantastic. After dealing with a few companies that seemed more interested in upselling than helping, Jake and his team came in willing to listen and acted more as experienced helpers than salesmen.When our geothermal unit went out, Jake came out to assess the setup. He was straightforward and honest from the start, which was nice after our previous experiences. Jake took the time to measure everything properly to ensure we got the right-sized unit and his quote for replacing the system was fair and reasonable.During the two days they were at our house, Jakes team was great—professional, friendly, and respectful. They did a thorough job and left everything clean afterward.Jake prioritized the customer experience and explained everything clearly while the unit was being installed and when the work was done he made sure we understood how to operate everything. He even checked in with us the next day to see how things were cooling off.Its not often you find a small business with such high standards of service and ethics, but Legacy Heating and Cooling definitely fits the bill. If youre looking for a reliable heating and cooling company, I wouldnt hesitate to recommend them. -

My AC went out this week. Called Legacy and they were out the same day! Jake was very informative and professional, sharing what was wrong with my old AC unit and the options for a new unit. It was a true pleasure, being a single woman in a large two story home, feeling that I wasn’t being sold “a bill of goods”! In the end, I ended up replacing both my AC and furnace at a very reasonable price. I am absolutely thrilled with the service, honesty, professionalism, and Customer Service I received from Jake and his team. As a supporter of local businesses, I would highly recommend Legacy! Thank you all so much! My house feels amazing and my AC unit it is so quiet! -

Legacy installed a furnace and hot water heater over the winter for us. We bought a new refrigerator recently and were told by the delivery team that we had a leak behind the fridge. We called Jake, he was out within 3 days and evaluated the leak. Turned out to be nothing, he installed the new hose and didn’t charge us a thing. While he was at the house looking at the fridge, he took a look at the hot water heater and furnace and everything looked great. Always great customer service with Legacy. Highly recommend. -

Very professional and friendly. They were able to get us scheduled quickly and communicated very well. They answered all our questions and gave us a very reasonable price on a whole house humidifier we were looking to install. They performed our yearly inspection and service quickly. I definitely recommend this company. -

I had a great experience with legacy plumbing. Jake did a couple plumbing jobs around the house. He was quick and very reasonably priced. I will definitely be using them for more plumbing needs! -
Review 10 (2023-12-08 - Rating: 5)
Our furnace went out during a very cold week. I called and Jake was out the very same day I called and it was replaced two days later. Our hot water heater was also old and hanging on by a thread so they replaced that at the same time as the furnace and gave me a great deal. He was honest and up front during the whole process and I never felt like I was being upsold or taken advantage of. They assessed the AC unit and they will be back each fall for a tune up. They were always prompt and communicative. I could not recommend them more and I am so thankful they were available to keep my family warm. -

This local company was great! So responsive, helpful, and personable. We previously worked with Complete Comfort when needing to replace our furnace and did not like their pushy sales tactics and generic process. When our air conditioner stopped working we wanted to look for a local business rather than another corporate chain. We felt like we got that with Legacy. We felt like we got honest advice and fair pricing. I would recommend them and will be calling them again for any other needs with heating, cooling, hot water heater, etc. Thanks to the whole team! -

Weve had Legacy Plumbing, Heating & Cooling do multiple projects at our home. Weve had our furnace, heat pump, water heater and now our water softener replaced through them. They do a fantastic job every time! From estimating to installation to clean up, they are truly professional in everything they do. Theres not another company in Central Indiana I would hire than Legacy for my plumbing, heating & cooling needs. Theyve earned my trust and respect!! -
Review 13 (2023-01-22 - Rating: 5)
After unsuccessfully trying to get my 12.5-year-old heat pump working again, I decided it was time for a new heat pump system. I contacted Legacy for a quote on a new heat pump system. Jake came out to provide the quote and gave me some different options and explained the differences between them. There was absolutely no pressure and he answered all of my questions. After deciding on a 16 SEER system (an upgrade from my 13 SEER system), they were out in less than a week to get the new system installed. Jake, Bill and the rest of the team completed installation in less than a day and did a wonderful job! This is the first heat pump system I have had in my home that has actually kept my home warm in the Winter. Very pleased with their quality products and quality service! They offer fair prices and they care about their customers!!!! I was very impressed with Legacy from the first phone call through installation and would highly recommend them! Give them a call! Please support this locally owned business! THANKS GUYS!!!!! -

Jake from Legacy came out to get our existing furnace cleaned and ready for the upcoming cold weather season. Upon checking things out on our 17 year old furnace, it was clear that we would need a new system to make it through winter with no problems. Jake took us through some different options and prices and was super helpful answering all our questions. He was no pressure, and very down to earth and friendly. We decided on what we wanted to go with, and they were back to install a few days later. Adam and the installation team were very nice and thorough. They explained things when needed and cleaned up any mess they made during the process. They delivered outstanding customer service and were very fairly priced. I would highly recommend the Legacy Mechanical Heating and Cooling team to anyone looking for the services they offer. As a bonus, they are locally owned and operated here in Noblesville! -
Review 15 (2023-08-07 - Rating: 5)
I had a great experience with Legacy. Bill turned out to be a great and knowledgeable tech and installer throughout the process and everything went smoothly during install of both my AC and furnace. After many quotes and sales pitches from other heating and cooling companies, Legacy stood out as a trustworthy and family cohesive company that I know I can rely on in the future if anything goes wrong. -
Review 16 (2024-05-04 - Rating: 5)
Adam and his team are the best! They are extremely professional and reliable. They do what it takes to get the job done. I can’t thank them enough for all their help. We are lucky to have them in our community! -

They were wonderful! They came out same day, during the busy season, when everyone else wouldve been a week. As well as doing a great job, they were helpful, polite, and reasonably priced. Everything youd hope for in a local small business. We will definitely use them again. -
Review 18 (2023-10-13 - Rating: 5)
Legacy Mechanical is amazing!!!! It is ice cold here and my heater decided to not work. I called and they did night service for me at beyond reasonable rates. Not your overcharged after hours rates but really reasonable fair rates. Anyway it was a simple fix. Jake was the technician and was so polite, courteous, informative and wonderful!!! He performed the repair in no time explaining EVERYTHING!!!! I was very impressed with him! Please please give this company a try!Now my hot water heater pilot light was out. It was a simple fix, but they did it at no charge! They came out so quickly I barely had time to notice that the hot water was out. Definitely recommend them. They come through every time. -

Review 20 (2024-04-16 - Rating: 5)
The best. Jake just swung by and fixed our system - well, that is a strong word, but the power cutoff was put in the off position by people who did our siding (yes, I should have checked this). Charged me nothing and could not have been nicer about it. -
Review 21 (2023-12-04 - Rating: 5)
Great HVAC company. They were pleasant and quick to respond. The heat went out sometime in the morning, I called around 12, and it was fixed by about 2. Both the pros were happy to answer any questions I had, and went above and beyond, finding an unrelated issue and correcting it in the same visit. -
Review 22 (2022-07-14 - Rating: 5)
I was so very pleased with the service I received from Legacy Mechanical from my very first call! The entire team is friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. Not only were they on time, they were early! Jake and Chris installed our new furnace and A/C on one of the hottest days this year in record time. They worked efficiently to get the job done at a great price! Both gave me tips on how to best use my system and answered every question. I love my new A/C and would highly recommend them! -
Review 23 (2023-03-17 - Rating: 5)
I requested estimates with several local companies. Legacy Plumbing, Heating, & Cooling ended up being the best price/value. The salesman, Jake, answered all of our questions, which we had a lot of, in a very professional and humorous way. Products were installed on time and we have been very happy with the results. I would definitely recommend this company to others. -

Great local company and fair pricing that can’t be beat! Their response time for service after a week of 90 degree weather was amazing. We had the pleasure of having Jake quote and do our AC repair. He was professional, realistic and a very skilled tech. If you are looking for family owned, great work and affordable pricing…you are in the correct place! Lifetime future customer here!! -

Legacy goes above and beyond. I recommend them without reservation. Adam, Jake, and the team installed my mother-in-law’s furnace on the coldest day of the year while making sure she stayed warm. Legacy was there night and day until the job was done. They treated her like family. I will hire no one else when it comes to my heating and cooling needs. -

I’ve used this company twice now, and generally will wait for a couple of experiences before leaving a review. To say the least, I am highly pleased with my experience with Legacy.The team is full of highly skilled, generous members. Their prices are beyond fair, and their response time and customer care is immaculate.I would recommend signing up for their service membership, it is a great value and will save you money in the long run!5 stars all across the board. -

Used this team based off of location and others reviews. Could not have made a better choice. Quick estimate (best in the area) and a 24 hour turn around for install. Team arrived right on time and were done within 6 hours with no trace left behind except cool air. Thanks Bill and the Legacy team! -

Had a new furnace/AC system installed, they gave me a good price on the water heater I had been needing to replace so I had them do it at the same time. Great company and technicians to work with. Kept me informed at every step of the way. Clean, tidy installation. I would definitely recommend Legacy, and Ill be using them in the future. -

Dave, Adam and the rest of the team at Legacy are completely awesome! Not only are they polite and knowledgeable, they explained everything to me in terms I could easily understand! Its was very clear that they knew their stuff and they were able to install a new HVAC system into my home a little less than 24 hours after my old system completely failed!If youre looking for a trustworthy partner for your heating and cooling needs, look no further than Legacy! Their rates are more than reasonable and its was an easy choice to use them for all my future heating & cooling needs... THANKS GUYS!!! GREAT JOB!!!!! -

We recently experienced what no homeowner wants to experience... the A/C went out on a hot summer day. I contacted Legacy Mechanical Heating & Cooling and they came out within a few hours! Other companies told me it would be 2 days before we could get on the schedule. Dave got us up and running quickly, but he discovered a few issues with our aging system. Dave gave us several economical options to choose from including a new system all together. Knowing the A/C and furnace was at the end of its life, we chose to install the new system and chose a higher seer rated system (base is 13 for residential and we chose 16). They put it in within days! My home is older and the upstairs has always been uncomfortably warm in the summer...with the new system it’s perfectly cool upstairs! Everything was installed within a day and we were so pleased with the professionalism and results! I highly recommend Adam, Dave, and their team for your HVAC needs! -

My heat pump failed late on December 22nd. My friend, Jake Cannon, is the General Manager of Legacy Heating & Cooling. I called him on Christmas Eve and he said they could replace my heat pump on December 27th. Jake came out on the 26th to measure and check things out for the installers. The installers arrived a little after 9am on the 27th and completed the installation by 330pm. I was very impressed with the installation crew. They were respectful, professional, knowledgeable, experienced, and very efficient. The owner, Adam Ely, spent quite awhile explaining things to me and answering my questions. Added bonus: They were $6,000 less than a big name HVAC company! As a realtor, I would wholeheartedly recommend Legacy Heating & Cooling to friends, family, and clients. Five stars and two thumbs up! Support local businesses! -

Highly recommend Legacy - weve used them for a/c repairs, furnace, and to fix a running toilet. Theyre always friendly, punctual, and fix the problem. Bill takes the time to explain the issue and your options. You never feel like they are trying to upsell you or anything. A good, honest company. -
Review 37 (2023-06-20 - Rating: 5)
I am so grateful for Legacy today! My A/C went belly up last night and well, you know how fun it is to try and sleep when you are used to using things like covers. I tried my home remedies without any success, declared defeat and called Legacy. I was told that they were booked but would try to work me in. Much to my delight Jake arrived a bit before 2:00 PM and worked his magic. I am cool, comfy, and looking forward to sleeping tonight!And BTW, I was prepared for a much bigger dent in my bank account! -

My wife and I just had Legacy Mechanical Heating and Cooling come out to install a new AC Unit and Furnace. We were running on 17 year old equipment that had been band aided too many times and were ready to give up. I contacted Dave and they quickly got me on the schedule and were here to install the new equipment just a couple days later. Dave, Adam, Larry, and Chris all came out to knock out the job and did a great job doing it. Honestly, the installs they did look better than the ones that were originally installed. We wont be using anyone else for Heating and Cooling needs! -

Review 47 (2020-09-08 - Rating: 5)
We were having a problem with high humidity in the house and the upstairs of our 2 story house was always 8-10 degrees higher than the main level. We tried everything to cool it off, but nothing worked and we were just miserable trying to sleep in the heat. Called Legacy and they evaluated our old system and that’s when we found out they were not matching units. We made the decision to replace the whole aging HVAC system and couldn’t be happier! The new system has 3 sensors that it uses to balance the temperature throughout the house. The humidity level has gone down in the house making it much more comfortable and the upstairs is always within 1-2 degrees of the rest of the house. The guys are all super nice and they do beautiful work! -

Legacy really came through for my family today when our water heater broke at 1pm and on a Friday of all days. Jake arrived at the house when he said he would be there and did a great job installing the new unit. He was professional, courteous and very knowledgeable. This type of service is why my wife and I prefer to spend our money on the local businesses rather than being just another customer like some of the large companies can make you feel. I will for sure be using them for any HVAC needs that come up. Thanks again Jake! -
