West Street Carlisle, PA 17013 Plaintiff/Appellee vs. MICHAEL W. STITZEL 91 Cranes Gap Road Carlisle, PA 17013 Defendant/Appellant IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS OF CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA CASE #11-5937 CIVIL COMPLAINT 1. Plaintiff, Stephanie Walters, is an adult individual residing at 272 S. West Street, Carlisle, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17013. 2. Defendant, Michael W. Stitzel, is an adult individual doing business as Stitzels All Mechanical, with a place of business located at 91 Crane Gap Road, Carlisle, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17013. 3. On or about January 20, 2011, Plaintiff and Defendant entered into an oral agreement for the installation of a heating and air conditioning unit in Plaintiffs residence. 4. As a result of this agreement, the Defendant installed a unit on or about February 9, 2011, which unit never worked properly. 5. When Plaintiff turned on the unit the day it was initially installed, there was smoke and a burning smell. 6. As a result of the failure of the installed unit, Plaintiff called Defendant for service. Defendant was unable to fix the problem. 7. Because Defendant was not able to repair the incorrectly installed unit, Plaintiff called a different HVAC contractor and plumber to come diagnose and repair the unit that Defendant had installed, which such service was provided. 8. Plaintiff spent $504.75 to try to get the unit installed by Defendant to operate correctly. Invoices for the services provided are attached as Exhibit A. 9. Eventually, Plaintiff gave up on trying to get the unit installed by Defendant to operate correctly and had the unit removed and replaced by another HVAC contractor at a cost of $6,734.68. 10. Defendant's work at Plaintiff's residence was performed in a poor, improper, and unworkmanlike manner which was by necessary implication required to be done and performed in a proper and workmanlike manner, as follows: (a) the unit installed by Defendant was grossly over- sized for the residence, causing significant extra electric cost of operation; (b) as a result of the incorrect size, the unit would cycle too fast and incompletely heat the property; and (c) the installed unit caused fire and smoke damage throughout the residence. 11. Prior to the removal of the unit and installation of a correctly sized unit, Plaintiff offered Defendant the opportunity to cure the aforesaid breach of the implied warranty of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose, but Defendant failed and refused to repair the unit. 12. Plaintiff offered Defendant the opportunity to retake possession of the removed unit in order to mitigate Defendant's damages, but Defendant has failed and refused, and still refuses, to take possession of the removed unit. 13. The reasonable cost of remedying the aforesaid breaches of failure to repair is in the amount of $504.75. Copies of the invoices are attached as Exhibit A. 14. The reasonable cost of installing a properly-sized unit to provide cooling to the residence is in the amount of $6,734.68. Copies of the invoices for the new unit are attached as Exhibit B. WHEREFORE, plaintiff demands judgment against defendant in the amount of $7,239.43, plus interest and delay damages and costs of suit. Dated: O 2 Z , 2011 Re ctfully submitted, By: ?
