Part I - Investigative Report
Is D. McKeon
Heating & Air Conditioning, Inc. complying with
Georgia State Law?
The Mechanic’s Responds®
Investigative Team has done it again! In a Mechanic’s Responds® News
exclusive, and in conjunction with our continuing efforts to expose unfair
practices of the BBB and related unfair Trade Associations Practices, Mechanic’s
Responds® has turned the tables on the former President of the
CAAG - The Conditioned Air Association of Georgia.
In a complaint filed today with the Georgia State Construction Industry Licensing Board Division of Conditioned Air Contractors, Mechanic’s Responds® has listed out many alleged violations by Mr. Dennis McKeon and D. McKeon Heating & Air Conditioning, Inc. Most of the alleged violations involve Mr. Dennis McKeon's alleged failure to follow Board Rule 121-6-.04 with respect to recent yellow page ads taken out by D. McKeon Heating & Air Conditioning, Inc.
In this reporter's mind, a more serious matter is the alleged unlicensed plumbing contracting being advertised, by Dennis McKeon's company, D. McKeon Heating & Air Conditioning, Inc., in these same yellow page ads. A review of these same yellow page ads does NOT show any plumbing license listed, another alleged violation of the STATE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY LICENSING BOARD RULES. As evident by TITLE 43. PROFESSIONS AND BUSINESSES CHAPTER 14. ELECTRICAL CONTRACTORS, PLUMBERS, CONDITIONED AIR CONTRACTORS, LOW-VOLTAGE CONTRACTORS, AND UTILITY CONTRACTORS, a person or company whom performs installation of “Water Heaters” and / or “Expansion Tanks” must carry a plumbing license in conjunction with TITLE 43. In Mechanic’s Responds® opinion, Mr. McKeon is in clear violation of TITLE 43 by performing plumbing work without a State Plumbing License.
Remember, back in 2007, Mr. McKeon decided to "help out" (What a kind man!) with the "trash tabloid press" in order to highlight alleged wrongdoings against a fellow competitor, Mechanic's Heating & Air Conditioning, LLC? At that time, in the CAAG's 2007 4th quarter newsletter, the then CAAG President Dennis McKeon bragged about how Mechanic's got hammered by the tabloid press. Mr. McKeon's published statements at that time, in part, was "This type of company gives our industry a “black eye” in consumer trust and respect.".
Well
guess who now has problems of their own to address? That's right, it now
appears to
Mechanic’s Responds®
that Mr. McKeon is giving the HVAC Industry a "black eye" and
undermining "consumer trust and respect" by engaging in many
alleged violations
of Georgia State Law!

First, the online dictionary defines karma:
Hinduism, Buddhism. action, seen as bringing upon oneself inevitable results, good or bad, either in this life or in a reincarnation.
Wow, now that's karma!
Perhaps Mr. McKeon needs to stop trying to become a tabloid TV star, or a "big whig" Trade Association President, and rather concentrate on making sure his own house is in order!
