DUNLAP'S HEATING AC Donald Dunlap, Dunlap Air, Dunlap Heating/AC in Tampa is a TOTAL RIPOFF - NOT Licensed, Does SUBSTANDARD, DANGEROUS Work and will DISAPPEAR After "Finishing". AVOID DONALD DUNLAP In TAMPA or YOU WILL BE RIPPED OFF! Tampa, Florida
Donald Dunlap, AKA Dunlap Heating and AC, Tampa, Florida, came to my house and initially told me I needed new air conditioning ductwork which he replaced for $1,000. Next he told me I needed a new unit, for $4,000. He held himself out to be a licensed AC or HVAC contractor.
He charged a total of $6,000 for all the work. The unit kept malfunctioning. He came out the first two times but then he stopped answering all calls. I had to call another contractor who told me that it was dangerously installed, with no heat pump as initially promised.
The entire system had to be re-wired at a cost of several hundred dollars. I estimate my total losses due to Dunlap's ripoff to be somewhere in the area of $3,000 to $3,500.
I filed a complaint with the state licensing board and they were no help. No matter what I provided them they wanted more and finally dropped the complaint.
