## The honest read

HARP Home Services is a Windsor, Connecticut heating, cooling, plumbing and electrical company with 4.5 stars from 4610 ratings on Google, and the people who write about it split between praise for named technicians and frustration with the office. Its BBB grade is A+, and the company says it has been in business 34 years.

The technicians are what customers single out. A long-running Google reviewer wrote in October 2026 that Eric C. found a leaking buffer tank on a Combi system, researched and found the replacement part, and that Luis and Tanner followed up quickly; the same reviewer describes cancelled appointments in December 2024 before Eric's visits. In July 2026, John J walked a house with a customer and isolated a fault between split systems and their SenSi controllers. A March 2026 customer said Chris Hanson cleaned a 30-year-old furnace without pressuring them to replace it. A May 2026 review describes a two-day mini-split replacement with five indoor units, a compressor and all the piping.

The complaints are about selling, scheduling and follow-through. An October 2026 customer paid $318 for an annual furnace service, was told the furnace needed replacing, and got a second opinion that it needed only a primary control box. A June 2026 customer who signed a 25k contract for 5 mini splits wrote that no permit had been pulled weeks later and the install date kept slipping. Customers in October 2025 and January 2026 said paid maintenance appointments kept being cancelled; the January 2026 customer counted three cancellations. On Reddit in 2025, commenters called the prices high, one saying a quote was double a competitor's, and another said that after an annual service they were billed over $6,000 in repairs and the company would not honor their warranty after merging with Solvit.

Its Connecticut HVAC license HTG.0388411-S1 is active.

**Strengths:**
- Named technicians — 2026 customers credit Eric C., John J, Chris Hanson
- Large installs — 2026 whole-house mini-split job done in two days

**Concerns:**
- Replacement pressure — 2026 customer told to replace a furnace needing one part
- Cancelled maintenance — 2025 and 2026 paid appointments cancelled, rescheduled
- Install delays — 2026 mini-split contract slipped with no permit pulled
- High prices — 2025 Reddit commenters called quotes double competitors'
