Seeking consulting HVAC contractor in…

| Posted in Help/Work Wanted on February 21, 2002 03:26am

*
Hello
I’d like to find an HVAC contarctor in the Denver area. I’m adding about 3000sq feet of living space to my house. I’m doing most of the job myself. I’d like to find a contractor that I can pay to consult on proper system design as well as the installation of the ductwork. It’s my intention to do the duct runs myself but I want them to be right.

I’m framed up and close to being ready to go on HVAC.

Anybody?

Peter

    Peter,

    I live in Windsor, and my neighbor is an HVAC guy. He has a small business so he might be interested. Ill ask him and if he is Ill post his #. Unless you have already contracted someone. I saw no replies so I thought of him.

      Quit the Spam

      If peter crowl had waited this long to hear from you he'd probably be dead from freezing.

      If you have something informed to add, fine.  If all you want to do is go around and stick your add in posts pertaining to HVAC........then why don't you just forget showing up in the first place.

        Quit the Flaming!

        Calvin,

         If I didn't have something to add to this topic I would have kept my mouth shut! I'm new to this forum and HVAC is my industry so wouldn't it make sense that I involve myself in HVAC related topics? I notice you managed to slip in an advertisement for your business so who's the spammer? I also am not the owner of the site which I linked to, can you say the same about what you posted? No you cant, that makes you a flamer, spammer, and a hypocrite.

        1. calvin | Jun 08, 2011 05:29am | #5

          Believe me, If I was wrong-welcome to Breaktime.

          I just got up and the fingers are stiff but can you tell me the location of the ad I inserted in my post?

          Remodeling Contractor is what I am, the glass city is rather nebulous, but I'm guess you must know where that is.  There's no link or phone number or other contact info.  It's there so the reader knows I'm not a 12 year old playing around here.

          The link to Quittintime goes to another mostly unused forum where folks might find information on various things including construction related topics.

          Again, if I was wrong, I apologise and hope you stick around to provide good information to the viewer.  There's been a rash of spam here and admittedly we might get a little short fused on the innocent.  Since you replied to a post from 2002 I figured you didn't really read it and were just dropping in a google alerted link .  It's been done here quite often.

          Best of luck.

            Not a problem...

            @Calvin not a problem, it happens and thanks for the welcome note. I plan on lurking but I'm not  a regular poster, my m.o. is that I'll register and make a small post to show I was here, then I just lurk unless something really gets my attention.

          2. calvin | Jun 12, 2011 08:31am | #11

            Please continue to read and monitor.  There's always questions involving Heat and Air-some even could be deemed - Hot Air.

            Make sure you have the reply notification button set so you rcv. notice of posts to you or even better, all comments.  That way you'll be able to stay on top of any continued discussion in a thread that might be of interest.

          You dug up

          a nine-year-old thread in order to post a link to what I guess is a referral site. I agree with Calvin, it seems pretty spammish to me.

          1. calvin | Jun 08, 2011 09:12pm | #7

            So David, how you been?

            Things here in Ohio have been wetter than ever, tho now we have no wet-just HEAT>

            Other than that, the phone keeps ringing and all that's left to do is anwer and fulfill.

          2. davidmeiland | Jun 11, 2011 11:47pm | #8

            Kinda the same

            as yer sayin'

            We have had an incredibly wet spring, although no rain the last two weeks... finally summer is here. Record precipitation all over the place. Funny thing, the regional power authority, which operates the hydroelectric dams, reports that anticipated snow melt is high enough that they will have to order the windmill farms off line for a period to avoid overloading the power grid. That basically means an excess of renewable power that we can't use, or store. Along the same lines, lots of flooding expected in various areas of the north and northwest as the snow melts off the mountains.

            Work continues. Smaller jobs for the most part, enough to keep chugging along but no records being broken. Booked through summer, wondering if next winter I might need to move into your basement. How is it down there, got a TV?

          3. calvin | Jun 12, 2011 08:28am | #10

            Basement?

            Well, we built into the hill.............so I guess you could call our first floor a walk out basement.

            The guest room is up on the second floor-there is room.

            And yes, the TV is on the first.  But, I don't want leaving socks and stuff laying around.

            Come ahead.
