I am blind or can’t see very well

If you have trouble seeing web pages, the US Social Security Administration offers these tips for optimizing your computer and browser to improve your online experience.

Use your computer to read web pages out loud
Use the keyboard to navigate screens
Increase text size
Magnify your screen

I find a keyboard or mouse hard to use

If you find a keyboard or mouse difficult to use, speech recognition software such as Dragon® NaturallySpeaking may help you navigate web pages and online services. This software allows the user to move focus around a web page or application screen through voice controls.

I am deaf or hard of hearing

If you are deaf or hard of hearing, there are several accessibility features available to you.

Captioning: A caption is transcript for the audio track of a video presentation that is synchronized with the video and audio tracks. Captions are generally rendered visually by being superimposed over the video, which benefits people who are deaf and hard-of-hearing, and anyone who cannot hear the audio (e.g., when in a crowded room). Learn how to turn captioning on and off in YouTube.
Volume controls: Your computer, tablet, or mobile device has volume control features. Each video and audio service has its own additional volume controls. Try adjusting both your device’s volume controls and your media players’ volume controls to optimize your listening experience.

Our A/C quit on us Friday evening. Since it was 4th of July weekend we gutted it out and called Blue Collar early Monday morning on the recommendation of a friend. By then it was 89° in the house! They said someone would be out between 10:00 and noon the same day. Brandon was on time and after looking and listening, he diagnosed what he thought was the problem in about five minutes and had the part in his van. In another 20 minutes he had the problem fixed. I really expected a guy to tell us we needed a new unit so this was a very pleasant surprise. I would highly recommend Blue Collar HVAC and I will be keeping their number handy for any future issues. Great job!

Brandon came out for a check on my system and was very professional and empathetic. He clearly explained what the issues were with my system and what my best options would be for replacement. He wasn't pushy or a hard salesman. Just a genuine kind man that wanted to see the best for me and my house. Keisha in his office is also amazing at keeping you up to date on the process and is prompt to call if anything changes.

I had Blue Collar HVAC install a complete new system. They were very quick and did an outstanding job. Very competitive on price with name brand equipment. Cleaned everything up and you couldn't even tell they were ever there. Brandon and Christian were very professional and nice and I would use them again!

Called on Tuesday afternoon to get my HVAC serviced after the gas company red tagged it. They offered to come out that evening but I scheduled for Wednesday morning at 10AM. Brandon came out did a thorough inspection and had my furnace back up and running by 11AM! Great prices and very professional!

Brandon came to give me a quote for a new HVAC system. He was very informative and knowledgeable. He never tried to sell me something I didn’t need like some other companies will. I highly recommend giving him a call.

UPDATE: We would have added a new review to up their clout, but Google won't let us. So...... We ended up having to invest in our UPSTAIRS unit almost a year after we invested in a new DOWNSTAIRS unit. Aaron and Christian were our team this time and were professional, respectful, super knowledgeable, meticulous and very forgiving with two rowdy dogs. :-) We decided to invest one day and they were here the very next day (less than 24 hours) to install the new system, on time and ready to work. It's worth noting that in the meantime, they worked diligently to flesh out our options with the manufacturer as well as what Blue Collar might be able to work out for us. They went to bat for us to make sure we received the best service from the manufacturer; especially when the manufacturer dropped the ball. Blue Collar HVAC consistently makes us feel genuinely cared for as customers. They were here about a 1/2 a day and we were chilled by that evening. We invested in the same manufacturer and SEER that made the old system. Amazingly, it works so much better than the old unit. (it was 6 years old) It blows harder through the vents and we can leave the thermostat 5 degrees higher than we had the old unit and still sleep well overnight. Aaron and Christian spent time testing the unit to make sure it was running properly and asked us to play around with the thermostat to see what temperature was most comfortable. We decided to invest in Blue Collar's Maintenance program. It offers 2 visits a year to maintain our units. They usually come out in the Spring and Winter. They offer a free year when you invest in a new system and then it's $99/system thereafter. This is a great perk! An area of improvement we experienced this time was around clean up. There were several pieces of debris/garbage around the pad that the new system sits on. If we could do this over again, we would have had a discussion beforehand about our expectations of cleaning up when they were finished. I might have suggested putting down a tarp to catch all the tiny pieces of debris so that they could roll it up at the end and dispose of it. We also want to mention that we spoke directly to Aaron about our concern today and he took full accountability and is addressing it with his partners at their next team meeting. They are implementing a checklist for each project going forward that will include "clean up" on the list. We could not have asked for a more appropriate response to our concern. Blue Collar HVAC continues to be an amazing small business and we highly recommend them! FANTASTIC company! Aaron and Brandon were/are amazing to work with. We recently moved into our house and one of our units was on borrowed time. It finally kicked it about 3 weeks ago. Aaron came out and did a thorough inspection of the unit and fully explained our options; including the most effective way to utilize our home warranty. BTW, they contract with home warranty companies too. Aaron and Brandon spent over 12 hours meticulously replacing our unit this week and making sure it worked perfectly. We are incredibly pleased with their workmanship, professionalism, knowledge, transparency and respect. In addition to installing our new unit, we’ve entered into a maintenance schedule with them as well. We called them about an issue with our other unit and they were here within an hour! We highly recommend them for your HVAC needs whether it’s residential or commercial. They do it all. Thank you Blue Collar! We are perfectly chilled in our home thanks to you guys.

Blue collar HVAC came out to check my cooling unit at 8:00 am on Wed. The damage to my coils was severe on a 20-year-old unit I decided to have them replace my heat and air system. Brandon, Aaron , and Christian came out around 7:45 on Friday with the new system to install. It is 12:30 and the team just left my new thermostat is set up my system is running everything is cleaned up they were so nice and so accommodating and very down to earth! They are a small locally owned business! I will know who I'm talking to when I call for them to come for a check-up before I switch over to Heating this winter! I like that in a business please support our local workers!!

Coby and his crew replaced our air conditioning unit for us. He was able to diagnose our issue quickly and replace the unit the next day. I will use them in the future and recommend them to family/friends.
