Company was hired for air-duct cleaning. Technician identified mold in A/C handler and advised that mold cleaning and freon recharge is needed to cure the problem. Customer paid for these services. Days later, A/C no longer blew cold air. Company was informed and returned to property. After assessment, company informed me (owner) that a brand new A/C unit was needed (~$3,000) and problem was unrelated to prior service. I refused that offer and got a second opinion, which resulted in discovery that company had tampered with the A/C and let all freon out. Second-opinion-company tested for leaks (none found) and refilled freon and A/C has worked fine since (many months later). A/C Ductcleaning Company refused to pay for freon recharge or refund initial amount paid to them. It appears that they staged a scenario in hopes of selling a $3,000 A/C unit.
President of the company, Netanel Brumand told me, "I don't owe you anything" and denied that his technician ever tried to sell us an A/C unit.
