Thirteen years of unbroken BBB accreditation and an A+ grade, and not a single customer review anywhere to go with it. That is the shape of J R Blood HVAC & Ref, a four-person heating and cooling shop at 400 Humphrey St in Swampscott, run by its president Joseph Blood. BBB has the company trading since 2010 and incorporated in 2012, accredited since January 2013 and carrying an A+ since. It also files under the alternate name JR Blood HVAC/R Inc. The work covers the full heating and cooling range — installs, repairs, maintenance and replacements, ductwork, heat pumps including geothermal, boilers and furnaces, plus air-duct and dryer-vent cleaning — for both homes and commercial buildings. What is missing is any customer's own account. BBB publishes no reviews and no complaints on the profile, so there is nothing written by anyone who actually hired them, which is why no rating is issued here. Worth calling if a long-standing accredited local shop is what you want, and worth asking directly for recent references on a job like yours, since none are published.
