    This company is the worst. Call them on the Memorial Day weekend because I was experiencing some cooling issue. Someone came out and told me that I will need to replace the coil item and would also need a lot of freon . He told me some will follow up right after Memorial Day. After no one called or showed up at my house I called the company and a very nasty and unprofessional lady proceeded to tell me that there is no record of me being a client or anyone from their office came to my house. After reminding her that I have been paying a monthly maintenance fee for the past two years, she arrogantly conceded that she was looking at the wrong address. After requesting to speak to her manager she annoyingly responded that he was in a meeting and hung up the phone. I called back and requested she be professional and take a message for her manager. She hung up on me again. I called the following week after I haven’t heard from them and someone else answered the phone and again the manager wasn’t available to talk to me and I was promised that a message containing a call back request will be sent to the manager.
    By the end of May, I hired another company that came and fixed my cooling issue. While they were there they had to clean my condenser and what they saw after removing the cover was absolutely disgusting. Just look at the attached photos to see what I’m talking about.
    So for 2 years Signature HVAC workers have been coming to my house for maintenance and they never looked to make sure the condenser was clean even if it wasn’t their job to clean it. Thoroughness requires that they at least check to make sure my system is set up to perform at its optimum.
    Hire this company at your own risk. They don’t care about their customers. All they care about is charge you monthly for disservice not service. They didn’t care that my cooling system was faulty and that summer was just around the corner. They didn’t care to at least give me an estimate.
    They unprofessionally let me down.

    The Guerriero Family had a blast at the beach!
    After a Fantastic Summer of 2025, back home our Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems and water heater gave up!
    I called my friend Dan Miller, the HVAC expert, to come to our rescue.
    After examining our entire home's dual-system residential HVAC, Dan told me it was time to replace everything!
    Dan referred me to his employer, Signature & Timothy Off Heating Air Conditioning & Plumbing of West Chester, Pennsylvania.
    I immediately received a welcome message from Signature HVAC & Plumbing.
    Then I received a call from a wonderful lady who, in a friendly voice, asked me when was the best time to schedule an appointment with Mike Gardner, a certified, insured, and highly qualified Project Manager. Mike showed up on time and, after inspecting our whole-home, dual-system residential Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) system, began working on a free estimate from Signature HVAC & Plumbing, listing current manufacturer offers and PECO rebates, and tax credits. Mike explained us in detail the benefits of the new LENNOX Elite Series 2025 high-efficiency, SEER 2 18-rated, ENERGY STAR®-certified digital air conditioners, featuring 2025-compliant R-454B refrigerant coils, an extensive compressor, parts and registered products warranty. The new Lennox Elite Series 2025 high-efficiency, two-stage, variable-speed AFUE 97 natural gas furnace is ENERGY STAR®-certified, with an extensive parts and registered products warranty, and a lifetime heat exchanger warranty. Additionally, the new Bradford White Power Vent 2025 natural gas water heater, designed to be the best, features a powerful vent motor, Defender® safety system, Vitraglas® tank liner with Microban®, ICON® system, and Hydrojet® Total Performance system.
    After comparing quotes with several Pennsylvania-registered installers serving Chester County, we decided that Signature HVAC & Plumbing deserved our signature on the new installation contract. I immediately received a text from Signature HVAC & Plumbing with our new installation appointment.
    We are a Basketball-loving Family, and the Dream Team showed up at our Home with a Full Crew consisting of Travis and Nate, the Leads; Steffen, the new construction Lead; Santiago, the Installer; Luke, the Plumber; and Ryhmir, the Helper!
    After their morning huddle on our driveway, within a day, they installed our new 2025 residential HVAC whole-house dual-system and hot water heater with no issues. At the end of the day, they inspected and explained how the new 2025 Lennox Smart Home Wi-Fi thermostats worked.
    The next day, I received a confirmation email about the Peace of Mind and Protection of my Comfort Club Membership Enrollment.
    We, the Guerriero Family, highly recommend Signature HVAC & Plumbing of West Chester, Pennsylvania.

    Great experience with Timothy Off. We had no heat, called at 6:00 and Aidan was here by 8:00 and we had heat by 8:30. He found the problem and had it resolved in no time. Explained everything to my wife and I more than once. We couldn’t ask for better service. Thanks for all your help.

    Called them to fix my HVAC because of the 5 star reviews. After a painful 5 minutes of giving the female voice on the other end my info (thinking “wow this girl isn’t so bright”), it finally tells me it’s a virtual assistant, it never said so up front. They don’t give me an appointment for 3 days so I called my next recommendation and got an appointment right away. Calling back to cancel with Signature was even more painful, the virtual assistant couldn’t handle the most basic task of canceling for me and I had to wait on hold for a human who never even asked why. Waste of time and massively frustrating.

    Update: they didn’t like the review and a human called me THREE times to discuss. I wasn’t about to waste any more time on them and didn’t answer but they left VM’s. If they had paid a minimum wage human to take my call in the first place they would be up the $1300 I paid the next company I called.

    Horrible. We had Timothy Off/Signature install a new HVAC system in late November 2024. Since then we have had at least 4 instances when the heating system shut down entirely and would not function. We just recently used Middletown HVAC and HIGHLY RECOMMEND them if you need HVAC services/repair. Timothy Off/Signature is horrific.

    The 1st time our brand new HVAC broke down was in February 2025 (less than 2 months after installation). The unit shut down and the tech charged us over $500 to replace tubing that he claimed was clogged because we run our fireplace often (makes zero sense). The issue wasn’t fixed and they had to send a 2nd tech out. I demanded a refund since the initial repair didn’t fix the issue and the system was brand new. The next tech said he had no idea why we were charged or why they said the tubing caused the issues. We had to have them out for repairs two more times after that.

    During our most recent issue, in January 2026, the heat stopped working when it was -4 degrees and a Timothy Off/Signature tech came to the house to repair it. He identified that the initial install crew from Timothy Off/Signature only wired 5 kw of the 15 kw needed for our 4-ton unit. The service manager, Joe, confirmed Timothy Off/Signature did the installation incorrectly. The tech fixed that and poured hot water over the outdoor unit’s blade (it froze) then left. The heat still didn’t increase after over 8 hours running so I called Joe, the service manager, to get another tech out to our house. He told me the heat was being “absorbed by the furniture” but assured me the heat would begin increasing and told me to call back later. The temperature began DROPPING so I called back and he quickly sent the same tech to our house. The tech manual re-wired a few things and two days later our Nest thermostat was completely fried so the heat wouldn’t turn on. At this point, a snow storm was coming and Timothy Off/Signature said the earliest they could send a tech out was in 3 days so we would have had no heat until then. We called another company, Middletown HVAC, around midnight and they had a tech at our house within 30 minutes!

    Turns out the Timothy Off/Signature tech dangerously re-wired a low voltage wire to a high voltage connector, which fried the heat package and fried two thermostats (our original Nest and a brand new Sensi Touch 2). Our new HVAC company said this could have started a fire in our house so they ordered a new heat package and offered to bring us space heaters in the meantime.

    I am thanking God for Middletown HVAC coming to the rescue! I will NEVER EVER use Timothy Off/Signature again. I have receipts from every single service they provided and cannot believe we have wasted so much time and money with them over the past year.

    Service provider was very detail oriented and clearly explained everything. Excellent service!!
    Scheduling is difficult, with this company. They use AI. I would strongly prefer to speak to a scheduler in person.

    We thought our hearing system was not working and called the company with whom we had a membership plan with. They were quick to respond and got a technician out the same day. Christian was amazing he checked everything, told us nothing was wrong and ended up doing the maintenance. Reliable company and good customer service! Glad we signed up for the membership plan. Thank you.

    Bill was knowledgeable, extremely kind, funny, efficient, and fast. His expertise really showed, and he explained everything clearly.

    He worked very clean, respected my home, and carried himself with professionalism the entire time. Truly 10 out of 10 service. I highly recommend Bill and Signature Heating.

    Christian F. arrived to fix my broken hearing unit today and I was blown away by the customer service I received. He was clear and concise and gave me all the options I needed to make an informed choice on whether to repair or replace my unit. I would highly recommend Timothy Off based on my experience today.

    Bill was outstanding! He took the time to really assess the issue with my baseboard hot water heaters, and spent a lot of time “bleeding” them to get rid of any trace of air pockets. They’re working great again thanks to him!

    Tyler Plaster came to service our unit today. He was friendly, thorough and provided great suggestions for future service. This was the first time he’s been out and he did a great job. Looking forward to seeing him back.

    Christian Fernandez did an amazing job would 100% recommend. Will always call any time I need service. He was extremely knowledgeable and patient and explained everything he did. I was worried about finding a reputable HVAC company and tech but Christian put all of my worries to bed.

    Jim Shaner was an awesome technician. He was extremely thorough, answered all my questions and did a great job getting my heat back running in no time. He is an asset to the company.

    Shout out to Christian Fernandez who serviced my heater unit today. He is very knowledgeable and personable. I had several issues going on, he took the time to explain the problem and gave me options to resolve. Thank you Christian.

    Spent $1200 on a “fix” but it didn’t actually help my problem. When the next guy came out from the company his response to my situation with the first guy was “sorry there is nothing I can do”… I asked him to leave. We ended up using another company who had techs more experienced and that took time to educate me. Oh and showed more empathy. Ended up going out and buying a window until a few hours after spending $1200

    We had our winter maintenance check performed today, and I want to clearly distinguish between the service provided by the technician and the experience with scheduling and communication from the office.

    Woody May, our technician, was excellent. He was personable, professional, and clearly competent. Once he arrived, the maintenance was completed thoroughly, and I was very satisfied with the quality of his work. Woody represents Signature very well, and I would be happy to have him service our system again.

    Unfortunately, the communication leading up to his arrival was very frustrating. Our appointment was originally confirmed for today between 8:00 AM and 12:00 PM. We adjusted our workout schedule to ensure we would be available. Before 8:00 AM, we received a call narrowing the window to 9:30–11:30 AM. At 10:06 AM, we received a text saying Woody was on his way.

    By 11:30 AM, no one had arrived. When I called Signature to ask for an update, the representative could not tell me where the technician was or what was going on. Woody eventually called me at noon to explain that his truck had mechanical issues and that he would arrive shortly, which he did at 12:35 PM. He also mentioned that someone from the office should have contacted us earlier to explain the delay, which unfortunately did not happen.

    To be clear, I am very satisfied with Woody and his work. My dissatisfaction is entirely with the lack of proactive communication from dispatch. A simple call or text would have prevented a lot of unnecessary frustration.

    On February 22nd they sent Brian out to do the necessary tune up to my oil burner and he did a fantastic job. It sounded so much better but still need a part to complete the project which wasn’t scheduled to come in until the end of March.
    Today I received the call that he part was in and they sent Steve out to install that part.
    My oil burner is running and sounding as good as new thanks to these two wonderful technicians.

    Jerry came out to my home to assess some water damages I had from a leaking water pipe. The tech arrived on time, which I am not used to from other service providers past experiences, and was polite from the first greeting. He walked through my home (with water proof shoe covers, big thumbs up) to assure no other issues or damages occurred from the water leak. My invoice had pictures to relate to Jerry’s quotes, as well as a detailed description of what and why, which made it really simple and easy for me to explain to my wife who was not onsite for this visit. The pricing I felt was fair and the attention to detail the tech put into his inspection impressed me. Thank you Signature Team for sending Jerry to my home, I 100% look forward to him returning for the quoted repairs for a new water heater and piping repairs.

    They used to be fine but they’ve really gone downhill. When you call you have to talk to an AI assistant and talk in circles for 10 minutes while it gets things wrong before you get to a person. And I don’t mean press 1 press 2 kind of menu. It’s a robot acting like a person and it doesn’t tell you this until you’re about to throw your phone at a wall in frustration. I have been a comfort club member for many years and now they schedule maintenance appointments over a month out. They just cancelled my appt the morning of and wanted to reschedule me for another appt over a month away two days after Christmas. If you cancel on me, I get priority for the soonest appt you have. Not a month and a half away. Cancelled my comfort club. Trying to get my money back. Scheduled with Mattioni and they had available appts for TOMORROW! And you can schedule online without talking to AI and their appt window is only 2.5 hours. Not 4. Not giving Signature my money anymore. Not worth the frustration of dealing with them.

    Edited to add: Does no one find it sketchy that they have a million new five star reviews in the past few days that all have the same formatting and mention the technician by name? They are doing something really shady to inflate their reviews. Beware.

    Will was excellent and professional. As is the signature customer service team. He explained our issue and provided multiple price options to fix. He replaced our humidifier in 1 day. I highly recommend working with them!
